McGill is a girl's school populated with women who wouldn't go out with the author of the jokes on a friday night?

Girls at McGill don't get jokes?

I guess, it just seems like there's a lot more that you could make fun of McGill for.  

Some of the other ones are pretty funny, although making fun of, say, Algonquin, is not unlike shooting giraffe in a barrel.  I don't think it's technically a university, since I once dated a guy who was going there to learn to be a cop, and another girl I know is going there to learn how to be a whitewater rafting instructor.

I also don't think Ottawa U is especially sleazy so much as they ran out of jokes, and college students generally tend to get laid a lot, so it's fairly probable that this also applies to students at Ottawa.

I know I've heard almost every one of those applied to Virginia schools so I'm going with the "randomly picking schools to fill up all the slots" theory.

Also, how many Mary Washington students does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
All of them. It's the most exciting thing to do in Fredricksburg.

The "one; s/he stands still and the world revolves around him/her" joke I have seen applied to sopranos, flute players, and trumpet players. (In all cases, relatively accurately, but nonetheless...)

When I was at UVa that was the one applied to us. Internally we used "4, one to screw it in and 3 to say how much better he did it than a Berkely student"

She couldn't find the key and didn't know when to come in?

Of course, you know why all the soprano jokes are one-liners.

Two, but we can't figure out how they got in there.

Good answer, August, but not the one I was looking for. The real answer is:

Teen Unitarians don't screw in lightbulbs, they screw in sleeping bags in the church basement.

There's a "Pennsylvania Colleges & Universities" version of that floating around.  I added one for my alma mater:
How many Franklin & Marshall students...?
Nine.  One to screw in the bulb, and 8 to point out that their light bulb is just as good as an Ivy League school's, and who needs the Ivy League anyway, and no we're not bitter because they rejected us.

As I've said many times in the past, my SO is a Professional Feminist and everybody she works with is normally very nice and funny but every once in a while some invisible line gets crossed and raw hatred spews forth from the eyes. I am still in the doghouse for calling the Indigo Girls "the worst of the boy bands."

I just don't like the Indigo Girls. I think I stole that joke from the Daily Show though.

And I'm already in trouble with you people for no recognizing a song title from The White Album.
