Get the Super Adelle and the Hunger Pains mug.A book series written by Suzanne Collins. It completely rips off of "Battle Royale", a book by Japanese author Koushun Takami that was written over a decade before The Hunger Games. There were also two film adaptations of Battle Royale and a spin-off manga. Both books involve teenagers being forced to kill each other by the government.
The Hunger Games is very poorly written. Its biggest mistake is that it is written in 1st person, so one knows exactly how it ends the second one starts to read it. Suzanne Collins avoids showing the violence that takes place in her novel, usually implying deaths rather than showing them. This is because her target audience is teenage girls.
The protagonist, Katniss, is very unintelligent and has the same problem as all other female protagonists in modern teen fiction- she is in love with two guys and the main focus of the book is which one she chooses. This is the most important thing in the book- it doesn't matter that people are trying to kill Katniss, or that she lives in a world ruled by an oppressive government, or that her family is poor or that a rebellion is being started- the only thing important to her is choosing between these two guys. Everything else takes the back seat.
Essentially, The Hunger Games fails in every area that Battle Royal succeeds.

Teenage girl: OMG have u read The Hunger Games???/?? itz the best book EVR <33333
Me: Yes, and I found it to be very poorly written. It was a blatant rip-off of Battle Royale and the main character was quite stupid, as she was more concerned with finding a boyfriend than she was with saving her own life.
Teenage girl: no ur wrong itz amazinggggg!!1!!11! #Team Peeta <3
*goes back to listening to Ke$ha and worshiping Paris Hilton*
Me: This world is hopeless.

Get the hunker down mug.
Possibly one of the most hated GPS schools, along with Saint Ignatius, Shore, Grammar, High and Newington. They are a bunch of wannabe mad dogs, but fail. They have been known to recruit a bunch of Aboriginals on rugby scholarships. Yer. GREAT WORK GUYS. Most of the other schools question the Joey's sexuality as well. Ok, they wear pink rugby jerseys, not friggen cerise. But cerise still sounds gay, so i dunno what they are whingeing about. Other interesting facts-
