PEA Lexicon #2
PEA Lexicon #2 At the start of the school year, we here at Humor published Lexicon #1 as a guide to help new students get acclimated and understand some of Exeter’s lingo. But of course, one Lexicon cannot cover the vast variety of terms that we Exonians use every day. So if you’re curious about the double (or true) meanings of everyday Exeter lingo, or if you’re just looking for a laugh, I proudly present PEA Lexicon #2: The Exeter Issue - Harder to get into than Ivy League colleges. Synonyms with Street Side Editorial, The Exeter Dresscode, and Trendwatch for all us plebes who don’t know the difference. Leggings - Pants. Don’t let anyone else tell you otherwise. Also the reason why I’ll never get onto one of those fashion blogs. #legalizeleggings 3rd Floor of Phillips Hall - Danger zone if you choose to wear leggings…I mean stretchy pants. The Library - Multi-definition term. If you’re studious, this is your new dorm for the winter. If you’re already into college, it’s just that warm building you stop in between lunch and classes, if you still go to those. Grill - The black hole where all money goes because I’m too lazy to walk to D-hall for lunch. D-hall Hot Cocoa - Brown water that looks it may have once been blessed by a cocoa bean, but tastes pretty good. If it’s cold enough, you can catch some seniors by a machine muttering, "I’m in love with the cocoo." D-hall Coffee - Brown water that tastes a lot worse but somehow is your love, your life, and your world. A liquid that’s found in D-hall, but not in your dorm where you need it. Hot Water - Another liquid that’s found in D-hall, but not in your dorm where you need it. AB sports - Heck. EF Sports - Heck. FG sports - What the heck? #censorship E & R - Laundry service that delivers you only one sock of each pair as well as other people’s underwear, whether you wanted it or not. Universal Free - Sunset. Universal Free is the time of day when all the earthy creatures like the birds or the obese squirrels that have infested our campus start to turn in for the night, yet you somehow still have two formats of classes or sports to go.
