two blogs mixed together!
BYU parodies the Old Spice commercial for their library! Absolutely hilarious.

Most of you are probably familiar with James Patterson’s books—particularly how his face is prominently portrayed on the back covers. Well, one day I was walking through the stacks and found that someone had turned all the copies of his books around on the shelves so that all you could see was his face. They also lined them up in a row on the floor along the aisle. And all along the windowsills. James Patterson everywhere!
That’s a terrific shenanigan! I wish someone had taken a photo.
An unboxing show by librarians!!
You might like to see these ‘potential’ shenanigans from the series of strange-things-in-the-library sketches from episode 4 of The Mitchell and Webb Situation (2001).
This is fantastic! Thank you so much. I will post later today.
