Gotcha! Seniors pull off clever yearbook prank
A joke by eight senior girls with the same last name earns them the last laugh. Plus, Zuckerberg’s relationship status update, Ann Taylor gets a Photoshop thumbs-down, juice maker grows fruit with logo, and more.
The month of May means two things to anyone in school: Yearbooks and summer break. Before starting the latter, eight senior girls at Presentation High School in San Jose, Calif., took advantage of the former, as well as their shared last name, “Nguyen.” Knowing they’d be featured alphabetically in the publication, each member of the octet submitted a one or two-word portion of a senior quote to appear below their pictures. When books were distributed, their message to classmates was clear: “We know what you’re thinking and no, we’re not related.”
A yearbook prank at another school didn’t go over quite so well when a teacher’s name was misprinted to read “Chikahn Faqure.” Here’s a link to the original story; you can still see a photo-grab of the yearbook page and name here.
