Rubes by Leigh Rubin for January 18, 2024

I’d say accepted.

A small car will pick you up for the initiation along with your 19 fellow inductees.

We’ll, they DID send you a pie. I’d say, “Accepted!”

Clear the pie off your face.

That college later named to a certain university where acceptance was based on cash submitted… now what was the name of that university again?

You were pied.

Banana crème or key lime?

It’s a test; acceptance is based on how you react.

I’m impressed that they got the spring-loaded pie into an envelope.

That was just the letter’s salutation…

If he’s accepted, he’d like to join Omega Mi Pi fraternity.

That’s just the first page. There’s another 500 pages in the envelope.

Shouldn’t a boxing glove covered fist on a spring have jumped out from the mailbox upon opening?

Fat envelopes have a greater chance of acceptance than those one pagers.
