Everybody will tell you that college graduation is one of the hallmark events of your life. Now, young one, you are supposedly ready for Adult Life. But trust the words coming from a 31-year-old bat; you are not. Nevertheless, it's still an event that's worth noting - after all, the sleepless nights of copying Wiki are done, no more instant noodles on the menu (hopefully), and you even get to sleep alone. It's your moment to be proud of the blood, sweat, and tears (no, not the band that your dad listens to) you've shed. While some graduates are already stepping into the Adult role, some are clinging to their salad days by making the most fun on this glorious day. And us, old bats, cannot complain seeing a fresh dose of humor on the same things that we had to live through once. So, although this writer would just love to torture you with more reasonings about life, it's time to present the ultimate list dedicated to college soon-to-be graduates. A list full of the most ingeniously, hilariously funny graduation cap ideas!
The youngsters featured here have harnessed their creativity and came up with the most magnificent grad cap ideas; clearly, their imaginations haven't been broken by the machine yet. Some are poking fun at the education system, others are promising to meet their peers in therapy, and some, well, are just slightly teasing everyone around them. Not to mention popular culture references - from Spongebob Squarepants to Fallout, these guys are indeed the proud flag bearers for their favorite pop icons. Oh, and student loans, those are great fuel for creativity, apparently.
Anyway, enough talking, let's get to work! And by work, I mean scroll down below to finally see what I've been going on about for the last couple of minutes. Vote for the graduation caps that you thought were the funniest, share your college experience with us and have a giggle or two. Off you go!
#1 Both My Parents Have Passed Away
I wanted a way to include them at my commencement ceremony for my bachelor’s degree tomorrow. I uploaded cards they had each written and used my Cricut machine to put their writing on my graduation cap.
