Apparently some of the math professors are now repeating the the story about how I got dragged out of class by the campus police for concealed carrying of a ukulele.

Is it wrong that I like the attention?

@swiley Absolutely not and ukuleles are not a crime

@jordyd @MightyBigCar Did it at least have an appropriate warning label?

@jordyd @swiley UKULELES ARE NOT A CRIME
My new response if/when I'm in contact with law enforcement.

@swiley Are you kidding ? This should be written on your gravestone as an accomplishment ! :D

@swiley the hope of having professors tell complete strangers of your quasi-misdeeds is considered by some to be the entire point of college

@swiley The only thing that can stop a bad guy with a uke is a good guy with a uke

@jannamark @swiley

the only thing that can bop a bad doggo with a tuque is another bad doggo with a tuque

I DON'T MAKE THE RULES

@sydneyfalk @swiley Oh sure, next you'll be advocating putting pom-poms on those tuques and then where will we be?

@swiley in 2010 the banjo and banjolele were classed as "undesirable instruments" on the London Underground (metro system) and a busker was ejected from there for playing them (although the ukulele is still permitted)
