College student finds Thanksgiving board
College student uses sandwich board to answer his family's repetitive Thanksgiving questions.

MARIETTA, Georgia (KTRK) -- Ohio State student Robert Clarke returned home to Marietta, Georgia, for Thanksgiving, but instead of facing a repetitive barrage of questions about life at university from family members, he instead made a sandwich board with all the essential info.

Included on the board were important points about what classes he is taking, what the parties are like and crucially for some family members no doubt, whether or not he has a girlfriend, to which his pre-stocked answer was "No, I am allergic. I am trying to maintain my GPA."

Clarke's ingenious way of avoiding a monotonous flurry of questions over the holiday resonated with many on Twitter, where his tweet picked up over 100,000 retweets and favorites.
