    “Wanted By Police” Is Your New Favorite Pinterest Account

    A new Pinterest came across my radar today, and I’m pretty sure it contains the mugshots of everyone who has ever submitted a TFLN.

    Weekly Wrap Up: Oh August, It’s Getting Hot in Here

    Wow, August has been a steamer. And it makes me so lazy. I can’t do anything. And I’m not kidding. I could barely make the trek to my freezer this morning to have a struggle-fest opening the wrapper off of my fruit popsicle before I proceeded to the center of my family room, turned on the fan and spread out like a star fish on the ground.

    The Do’s and Don’ts of College According to TFLN Creator, Ben Bator

    Ben Bator learned how to college at Michigan State University and even went to class enough to earn a degree in Advertising. Since then, he has read millions of examples of what to do (and not to do) in college through his website, Texts From Last Night, which he started in 2009 with his friend Lauren Leto.

    Behind The Scenes at TFLN: An Interview with Co-creator, Ben Bator

    Since my very first TFLN encounter (“I used a bag of wine as a pillow last night”) I’ve been determined to meet the geniuses behind it and kiss them on the mouth shake their hands. And I finally got my chance… to talk to them, at least.

  • Web Spy: Party School Texts

    Web Spy: Party School Texts

    By now, everyone knows and loves (and quotes) the website Texts from Last Night. (Even my parents.) Most college students can relate to the drunken and crazy antics described in the texts show up on there. I know my friends and I can spend entire afternoons cracking up poring over that site. And now there’s a new site out there inspired by TFLN that promises the same kind of fun and amusement…

    We’re Giving Away Three Copies of the TFLN Book!

    CollegeCandy is giving three copies of TFLN’s new book away. FOR FREE. Could you imagine anything better? I mean, if the site makes you LOL on a daily (or, more realistically, hourly) basis, just imagine how fabulous the book will be (besides the fact that there is no discreet way to read it in class….)!

    The TFLN TV Show? Really, Hollywood?

    That wheezing sound you hear is the last original idea in Hollywood dying a slow, undignified death. Fox announced a few days ago that it’s developing a TV show based on Texts From Last Night, a website founded a little over six months ago that aggregates embarrassing texts sent in by users.

    Weekly Ten: Facebook Pet Peeves

    Every Week, I write College Candy’s “Weekly Ten” about whatever the hard-hitting, relevant issues of the week are. Obviously. This week, I’ve decided to focus my Weekly Ten on my Top 10 Facebook Pet Peeves. Because it doesn’t get more relevant or hard-hitting than that.

    Blogs That Make Us LOL

    Usually when we need a little LOL here at the CollegeCandy headquarters we just go back through our old posts and marvel at how truly hilarious we all are. (And modest, too!) Or, you know, look through our Facebook photo albums from college. God, those were the days.
