Linoleum floors, white walls, and random posters pulled from roommates’ recycling bins may suffice for most students’ nine-month dorm stint. But there are some who rebel against college dorm norm.

Even the humor works best when not located front-and-center: a rack of guacamole donuts behind Ian at Señor Donut draws a smile, but a scene in which Ian talks to a toddler while dressed like...
