If you were hoping your walk to Jester would get less crowded anytime soon, don’t hold your breath. All those bricks lining the Speedway Mall project? Almost all of them are getting ripped up, replaced and repaved — and no one’s really happy about it. Students took to social media immediately after the news broke, quote tweeting and commenting their frustrations away.

Here’s some of the funniest reactions to the story from Twitter and Facebook.

1. This guy must be going through some tough midterms.

At UT, even the bricks crack under the pressure of academic responsibilities https://t.co/jCMFGYuhqs

2. Ben, who really loves Speedway, just dropped a new single.

3. Which one of y’all is it? Fess up.
 

4. Everyone loves a good “First of all,” meme.

Students: ”Can’t wait for speedway construction to finally be done”
