Broken

Being a member of this house, you come to not grow very close to anything. Many things have been intentionally destroyed in our house throughout my tenure here, particularly during drunken rages. Whether it be during tailgates, reactions to Michigan sports follies or random nights of hilarity, one can be sure not to leave anything of the utmost importance in this abode. The things that have been destroyed differs from over a dozen chairs to a computer monitor. While usually chairs are simply manhandled and torn apart in the front yard, objects like computer monitors usually favor the roof-toss or the golf club. I do my best to accumulate any expensive or inane items that I can come across for obliteration. The computer monitor which was thrown from the roof as a cop drove by during a tailgate was among my favorites (needless to say the law was less than enthused). Other items that have been annihilated include golf club to a cell phone, dvd player off the roof, broom split in half over someone's head and of course the knife throwing contest that ended up with a one being thrown through a window. These examples only enumerate a few of the things that break at BOX. There are also at least 5 holes in our walls, a broken banister, several tears in our siding, a damaged porch, a hole in the bathroom tile wall and surely other problems that I have failed to mention. You don't live in BOX for yourself; you live in BOX for America-all hail the USA.
