Terry is well known among his friends as the first one to be picked as a flip-cup partner, but the last to be picked as wingman due to his uncanny ability to one-up every single word that comes out of someone else&#8217;s mouth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe all love talking about ourselves, that\u2019s normal,&#8221; said fellow Wilkie resident Laura Moot. &#8220;But Terry has got to be the densest piece of shit that I have ever met.\u201d Laura told Flipside that she is no longer friends with Terry on account of his relentless one-upping. \u201cWhen my boyfriend cheated on me I saw Terry\u2019s door was open, so I walked in and poured my heart out to him. After I spent five minutes venting, Terry spent half an hour telling me that his wife cheated on him, took the kids, and that he still owes that bitch alimony.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Flipside sent chief douchebag correspondent, Haywood Jablowme, to dig in to Terry\u2019s sweet, nougaty, arrogant center to get to the bottom of his recent slump.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy roommate&#8217;s sister tested positive for HIV 2 days ago&#8221; Terry explained. &#8220;And now it&#8217;s like I don&#8217;t even exist. Everyone already thinks that all of my immediate family died in a plane crash last Christmas so that&#8217;s off the table, and I&#8217;ve burned my house down like 6 times. I couldn&#8217;t think of anything fast enough and now everyone is consoling him. But what about me? What about my problems?.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Terry later told Flipside that he expects to be the center of attention at his group&#8217;s next social gathering. \u201cI&#8217;m going to bang my roommate&#8217;s sister. One of my friends has the flu and my roommate just lost his virginity so this would really be a great opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: Fannie Wanker 19 year old Indiana University Sophomore, Terry Bell, was found sulking outside of his tower at Wilkie Residence Hall this past Tuesday.
