College in Your PJs

If you're not in your pajamas, are you expelled? And what if you don't take your class in the morning but at lunch time? Should you change into your pajamas? Are boxers considered pajamas? Does anyone use the term pajamas anymore?

Every time I see this commercial, I keep thinking that a bunch of dudes sitting at home will want to join this college merely because they think, "Hey, it can't be true? Killing two birds with one stone? I can get an education AND meet hot chicks?"

Newsflash, you can't.

I know, she lost you at...well, no words, just at the pajama site, but there's no real college where everyone just sits in their pajamas and gets an education; this commercial is only connecting you to online colleges that already exist. The whole pajama spiel is only a suggestion.

But that'd be weird if a college did exist where students, in their pajamas of course, got online together at the same exact time, had a professor, in her pajamas of course, and you were all connected via Skype, and if the professor--let's call her (yes, a her) Professor Alba--saw you with more than your pajamas she'd say, "Excuse me? Um...take off those more-than-necessary-pieces-of-clothing immediately!" Regardless of the time, you had better be in your pajamas: If you were sticky from a hard day of working construction and you were so dirty that the dirt from the construction site had given you a New Jersey spray tan on your face, you had better strip, and get your pajamas on. If your baby had just spewed not into his cup, but onto your stomach because you were wearing no shirt and you had to login in five seconds and there was no time for cleaning it up, you had better get your pajamas on. You wouldn't want Professor Alba to be mad, would you?

But I always thought it was cooler to see real people at a physical campus as oppose to emailing "professors" and reading student's papers via online. But if the schedule doesn't allow you to attend classes or you prefer not to attend classes at a physical campus, classes online is definitely a nice option for you. And you DON'T have to wear your pajamas if you don't want to. The important thing is to get an edumacation!
