I had to make this Finding Nemo inspired cap the funniest cap of them all because in an ideal world we’d like to think that at graduation we still remember everything we learned, but the truth is, like Dory, we forget quite a bit.

So why not make a joke out of it and get a few laughs walking down the aisle…haha:

” I already forgot everything.”😂😂😂
