"S" time goes by...

[Escher]

In a startling, but well anticipated move today, President Ronald Daniels of the former Johns Hopkins University finally gives up to getting called "John Hopkins" for so long... and announces that it is officially changing its name to "John Hopkins".

Honestly, as a student here, it always drove me nuts to hear that slip of the tongue, mostly from ignorance, y'know? But the question is now "what is the bookstore going do do with all those 'It's JohnSSSSSSSsssssss Hopkins (with a #$%&ing S)' clothing they've got now?"

Sorry. I'm just used to the shenanigans by this point.

Google's joke today was priceless, though

Oh? I missed it. What'd they do?

They lost all their vowels for a while.

This year they said they were changing it to "Topeka", and they even had an article explaining the switch.

They had me fooled until I remembered what day it was.
