“Missing” GW Student: Just With Shorty!

This is too funny. The Hatchet has an article about how a “missing” GW student returned safely this morning.

After he disappeared late Friday night/Saturday morning, he showed back up in time for his midterm on Monday.

During the two days he was gone, his friends mounted a massive campaign to find him, complete with media outreach, missing persons reports, contacting his family, and creating a Facebook group.

So what happened?   Luckily he posted on the Facebook group wall to tell us.

Royal Gethers

I don’t entirely understand what he’s saying here — it’s a little bit lolcat.  But from what I can tell, he was with shorty.

We here at FoBoBlo would like to wish Royal good luck in explaining this one to his panicked family.

    seriously???? how did this kid even get into GW, my god i hope he’s in a UW20, maybe they can smack some grammar and english into him. and Royal…what a ridiculous name, too bad his last name wasn’t something witty or funny.

      That’s just how the kids type these days! Ain’t nothin’ wrong with a little slang.

        says kat with her grandiose lexicon…

      really though? Should I whip out the shakespeare in my response to meet your online education commentary requirements? Sheesh? Because you surely would’nt understand if I “broke up out n inta sum slang 4 ya.” …walks away toting degree with the GW STICKER ON IT.

    Firstly. Royal is an EDUCATED black man, who although is fond of the slang VERNACULAR, is one of the smartest men that I know. and just because your parents werent creative enough to name you something besides…what was that name again??? it was so plain and lame that i forgot it already. We were worried for our friend, and regardless of how we felt, he is a grown man and can do what he wants. And now after I showed you the educated side, let me show you something else. Royal has 40 chicks trying to find him…how many of people would look for you if you went missing?

      Sorry things got racial in the comments — not our intent with the post (though of course intent only goes so far), so my apologies if it came off as an attack on your friend.

      I’m also impressed that Royal is such a good friend to garner such loyal and such a quick response from all y’all — I mean, we did retweet the Hatchet’s missing person alert too, because that’s a serious situation. Finding out he was out with a lady in VA all weekend is pretty funny, though, and we try to bring the laughs.

      hey all, never meant to label him as ‘uneducated’ anyone who gets into GW has to be pretty smart to begin with. was trying to go with a UW20 joke, but it was poorly thought out and clearly inappropriate. Sorry Monet! glad to hear your friend is back safe.

    3. deffo not an attack. we do genuinely find the story hilarious, though. so no hard feelings, guys. all yall ma babies.

    you mean 40 shorties trying to find him? damn

  4. jazzmine

    yes. 40. and i was number 2/40+. and if something had happened to my baby i would have burned this damn city to the floor!

  5. Monet

    All these women went up in flames when that man went missing. I was number 1/40+ .
