Anonymous reported: thanks rumps..but follow up....he's a guy and i'm a guy and im not gay....

It is still an honor… but you need to make it really clear that you’re not gay or just stop talking to him.

Anonymous reported: about all the nudity, fence club scavenger hunt.

Awesome, Rumpus also likes to check some sort of box every time we get naked.

Anonymous reported: what should I do if there's that grad student who is constantly texting me about meeting up....?

You should consider it the honor of all honors… and then hook up with him or her.

Anonymous reported: Some dude also did a naked lap in the Berkeley courtyard. Mama rump, why was there so much nudity on campus this weekend?

Do not ask questions like that, just let it happen. Not wanting to see nudity is like rooting for the other team in a sporting event. #sororitygirlletter

Anonymous reported: Rumpus! How do I get a certain graduate student to talk to me?

Start talking to him or her, graduate students need love too. Also, the move is to invite them into the courtyard of any residential college.

We don’t know, that’s why we joined a tabloid!

Anonymous reported: why was a naked blonde girl running around campus the other night? rumpus I saw her twice, seemed a bit excessive.

Excessive? It’s progressive. Go naked people! #rhyme 

Anonymous reported: Which clarinetist's cell phone rudely went off during a concert? She then proceeded to run off stage and knocked over a flautist's music on her way.

Well, we weren’t there… but we did just look up orchestra jokes online and found this gem:

Q: How do you keep your violin from getting stolen?

A: Put it in a viola case.

(We don’t get it either, but the thought of someone understanding this is fantastic.)

Anonymous reported: rumpus i haven't had an orgasm with a hookup since february. is it me or is it them?

Well, if you want to get all scientific, you need a control for your test: Masturbation.
