You know what’s fun? A fire alarm getting pulled at 3am when you’re dead asleep, and you have to run outside wearing your Cheesehead pajamas, and people see you in them. Yeah. Fun. Thanks, guys who pulled the alarm and called it an “accident”.

Trivia[]
- "Cheesehead" is a slang term, generally used to describe fans of the Green Bay Packers football team. Robin, as a Wisconsin transplant, would likely have been a fan.
- The mystery of who pulled the fire alarm remains unsolved. Robin writes it off as a prank, and given the rowdy behavior of the new freshmen (and the bad blood between them and their RA), this is the likeliest explanation.
