Humans of OBU: Cone Bottoms

April 1, 2016

Jon Merryman“I invited the wrong class to a reunion because I’m really bad at math. I sent them all a postcard and said, ‘You’re invited home for your 25th reunion!’ Except it was their 35th and there isn’t a 35th reunion and they were all confused. So I had to say, ‘Oh it was a typo, of course were having a 35th reunion for you!’ But we weren’t so we had to have one anyway. That was my first year. I’m just really bad at math.”
