Lickumwhat? Lickumdeez!!!
Alright, here we go. It was a sunny morning at Villa Park High School and we (V.P.H.S. ASB)
were getting ready to embark on a six hour journey to UCSB for the annual leadership camp.
Blah, blah, blah...
So we finally arrive there and we were one of the last ones because our bus driver, Mr. McCool,
thought he was a tough guy, and thought that he knew all the short-cuts to UCSB. It turns out
that this guy doesn't know squat about dick, and we arrive when we do. Anyhow, when we arrive,
the other schools that were there were already starting to cheer and act like they've got spirit.
So I look at our "people" and realize that we don't have a cheer. I start making up stuff like.
We're Villa Park, we ain't got no cheers, you all can kiss our @sses and so on and so forth.
Well, the night passes and we still don't have a cheer. I look over at my friend Aaron, I think, and
state in disgust, "This licks man." He replies, licks what? So I say, "It licks these." And like
all other phrases of this sort, it gets modified a little and we end up with, "Lickumwhat?" So, we're walking
around, talking, blah blah, and a school marches past us, and screams, "We've got the spirit, yes we do, we've
got the spirit, how 'bout you?" And of course, being the smart @sses that we are, we reply, Lickumwhat? And
I yell lickumdeez!!! So our cheer, actually it was more like a chant, was, "Lickumwhat?" "Lickumdeez!!!"
Our ASB was known as the most vulgar and tough ASB out there. I heard just the other day that someone
from another ASB told our president that we were the most intimidating, thus most hard to talk to ASB that was at
the camp. Something to be proud of. Ergo, that is where I obtained the name, LICKUMDEEZ. Thanx for caring.
