Reality plague strikes again!

(The Signal 2.15)

Kudos to filters and censors. On a recent trip home, I was reminded how good we have it here in the OBU bubble. While there, I couldn’t even turn on the television without seeing people my age doing “normal” things on MTV or people telling hilarious jokes on Comedy Central…it was downright offensive. Luckily our cable access on campus blocks smut like this to protect our minds and souls from the infectious corruption of the real world. Another aspect of the bubble I missed was the leisure of going to a dorm room and not having to worry about the possibility of girls coming over. If we are to protect ourselves from immorality, it is imperative that we are not in the same room with a member of the opposite sex without a standard-sized shoe (not a sandal!) propping open the door. Just think of all the terrible things that could happen without that shoe: finding privacy, feeling like an adult, or even getting a taste of real life. No, no, no we cannot have that! Rather, we should be thankful that we have someone to hold our hands during this time of transition into adulthood. Always remember: a shoe in the door keeps you pure; no shoe in the door makes you a whore.
