bread lumps

Figure 1 (040208)

Figure 1: Standard graduate student (S.G.S) with meal consisting of leftover Bertucci’s bread “lumps”, cheese, and tomato

Discussion:

At 4pm, the standard graduate student (S.G.S) receives an announcement for leftover Bertucci’s pizza from a meeting on the 4th floor. Unfortunately, arriving 3 minutes late results only in the consolation prize: bread lumps. Bread lumps are actually quite tasty. These bread rolls come with the standard order of Bertucci’s pizza and are described on the website as having a “heavenly aroma”. Sadly, at some point in time, the free-food lists began referring to the warm and tasty rolls as “bread lumps”… thus giving them a poor connotation within the graduate community. However, the S.G.S remains positive and chooses to make the best out of the failed free dinner expedition. Store-bought fresh cheese and tomatoes add a nice flavor to the seemingly bland lumps of bread.

Conclusion:

Results conclude that with a proper choice of supplemental dressings, free consolation-prize food may be upgraded to a tasty meal for sharing.

    I find it hard to believe that S.G.S. bought the fresh cheese at a store. More likely (s)he snatched it from one of the fridges.

    that tomato also looks suspiciously fresh for a SGS…

    Clearly S.G.S. is a she. That would explain the fresh tomato …

    I don’t know if S.G.S. is a she.
    See the arrow labelled “Tomato”?
    Note how it really points to a hairy arm?

    My guess is that this particular S.G.S. is a he who stole the tomato from a she S.G.S.
