On my first day of university, we had this stupidly huge pep rally sort of thing, where the uni chancellor and president and all the faculty deans etc. got up on stage in their fancy academic robes and made speeches about how we are the future and all that stuff. This would have basically been a long boring total waste of time if it weren't for the fact that the big pompous stage procession was accompanied by the Imperial March blaring through the enormous gymnasium (which made it a long boring total waste of time preceded by a few moments of total hilarity).
Bwhahahahahaha! I'm guessing whoever picked that music didn't realise the irony?
(And god. Pep rallies. Thankfully, the only thing like that I had to endure was graduation, as principals aren't really into the whole "Welcome to my school, the best school in the world" type of thing on first days, over in Belgium. At least, not in state schools.)
Actually, I think it was picked for the irony. It was actually quite cool, because a lot of people burst out laughing, and you could sort of identify the nerds in the crowd by the ones who got the joke.
(And you know, if they'd play the Imperial March whenever I walked into the room, I'd actually enjoy my job a lot more. I don't want to be loved at work, I want to be FEARED! And appropriately sountracked.)
