Hahvahd Community University, also known as Harvaard, also known as Harvaaard, is a private university in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Harvard is mostly famous for one thing - the "Harvard Four Minute Rule." The "Harvard Four Minute Rule" refers to the fact that it takes, on average, four minutes, from the point of having been introduced to somebody (who happens to have graduated from Harvard) for that person to casually mention that he graduated from Harvard.



It is a well documented fact that Harvard graduates enjoy talking about Harvard. They like talking about it a lot (and we mean a lot). Typically, this is in the form of Harvard "promotion." Moreover, they will find clever ways to work Harvard into ordinary conversations. It is not uncommon for the following conversations to be overheard anywhere in the country:

"Looks like a cold spell is coming through."
"Sure enough, reminds me of some cold days. Cold, cold days. Cold days spent at Harvard. Cambridge sure gets cold. I told you I graduated from Harvard, no?"





"Sir, would you like paper or plastic?"
"Hmmm...that's a tough one, I do have milk, and the condensation on the outside of the container might eat through the paper, but on the other hand, plastic is not bio-degradable...quite a conundrum here."

"Sir, we have a long line, please choose paper or plastic."

"Decisions, decisions...brings me back to another time, back at Harvard, when I had to make decisions. Yes, you heard me right, Harvard class of '65, the "grand old class" they called us. I was in the eating club, and there it stood before me, bouillabaisse or no bouillabaisse...perhaps the greatest challenge I had faced up to that point..."





"Mr.Owl, how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsy-roll pop?"
"Many factors can influence the number of licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsy-roll pop. For a Harvard graduate, such as myself, it would only require one lick. It would take much more for you because the pH in your saliva just isn't as good as ours."





"A******, you swiped my car...I'm going to waste your punk-a**!"
"Swiped indeed...reminds me of the time when me and my fellow Lowell house pranksters swiped the bust of Cornelius Vanderwall from the provosts office at Harvard. We had quite a chuckle that day...Ahh, its so good interacting with 'salt-of-the-earth' folk like yourself...I so rarely do it...shall we talk more over a snifter?"





"Thank you for coming to our wedding. It means so much for us to have people who are so important to us joining us on our special day. We feel so blessed to have such wonderful friends and family...people like you, who are able to share in our joy today."
"I went to Harvard."
