Things I’ve genuinely heard St Andrews students say
‘How am I supposed to get a table of 10 people? I don’t have 10 friends.’
We all know our university bubble is unique. It can be a bit pretentious, a bit tragic, but it's mostly the 'best four years ever'. However, our university is known for some cracking one-liners. Here are the best and brightest lines heard from The Tab team around the town.
Union
"Can I have a pablo?" – 11AM on a Tuesday morning
Person A: "I really fancy this guy."
Person B: "That's my academic brother and I slept with him after Raisin in first year."
"Oh, for fuck's sake, why can’t my dad just buy us a house?"
Library
"I just joined water polo to get a sinners band, I don't even like swimming."
"Should I get a fake Canada Goose? Or is that tragic?"
"Do you think that's cocaine or highlighter on the mirror?"
"Do you think my landlord would mind if I bought my pet labradoodle for a holiday?"
Tesco
"It’s such a shame Tesco aren’t selling proper pomegranate anymore. I wish it was in season."
"Oh, I won't shop here. I get an M and S gift card from my parents to buy all my food."
"Do you think 20p spaghetti is safe to eat?"
"I'll get the ready-chopped onions because cutting them yourself isn't middle-class."
"How am I supposed to get a table of 10 people? I don't have 10 friends."
Gym
"To be honest I just come here to look at boys because I do English."
"I like to watch people in the mirror; it makes me feel like I'm on Big Brother."
"Why is this place so incestuous?"
"Sometimes I go to the gym before sinners to pretend I actually do a sport."
