WORCESTER, MA – Residents across the city were shocked Tuesday morning by the announcement that Hurricane Betty’s had been elevated to Category 5 in the middle of the night. Mayor Joseph Petty encouraged families to remain indoors and secure their homes, including boarding up windows, citing destructive forces capable of ruining marriages. Many have lamented that this weather event is expected to clash with Clark’s second Open House on November 12th, when prospective students will be touring campus with their parents.

Meteorologists who were hanging out by the wind vane on Sackler reported that Hurricane Betty may have been started when a local Worcester man made it rain.

The city is taking preventative action as well, by reinforcing government buildings and historical sites. They are also urging anyone who can hear the song Cyclone (feat. T-Pain) by Baby Bash from within their homes to take refuge in City Hall.

Hipster Quote of the Week:

The message at the end of “The Tortoise and the Hare” isn’t that ‘slow and steady wins the race’, but actually a well-remembered quote from the 1977 Disney classic “A New Hope”: “Great kid! Don’t get cocky”. Bullshit that the hare was gonna lose that race if he didn’t choose to stop for a nap and a snack and whatever else he did. Bullshit that the tortoise was going to catch up in any capacity if the hare didn’t slow down for him. Maybe that platitude makes sense, but definitely not in this situation.

 

A race is a sheer contest of speed. No other skills go into that. The tortoise and the hare aren’t making miniature wooden horses and getting judged on the craftsmanship of their products alongside their finish time; they are moving from one point to another. In no universe does slow and steady win that race. Slow and steady wins no races, except for races where the point is to go as slow as possible. Even in cases where slow and steady could be considered a possible alternative to fast, such as the aforementioned miniature-wooden-horse-making competition, someone who can do similar quality work at a much faster pace still wins that competition.

 

Slow and steady does not win the race. Not being too full of yourself does.."
