Eagle rants

• The SPA Leadership program is like the Skull & Bones of American University.

• End of the year, finally found out how to deal with my stupid freshmen neighbors: Yell at them. Yell loudly and include expletives. They will become quiet quite quickly.

• I deff wrote one of the college ACB things OASN read in their skit.

• We were both drunk when we met Friday night, but I hope you remember who I am. Cause I definitely remember you.

• This entire campus sucks at Greek life. On other campuses, they have fraternities that hang out together. You guys here are just little crybabies.

• Anyone joining the "Not Paying Tuition to American University" FB group is a blubbering idiot. Calling for some undefined action against the high prices you agreed to pay for a non-existent decrease in education quality?

• Turn your music down. Seriously. It's the middle of the night, I want to sleep, and it's 24-hour quiet hours. And you have bad taste in music.

• Hey SUB, less creepy shirtless singers and more MuteMath. Seriously the sickest live show ever. Also, I didn't pay for my ticket, but I still demand that the sound quality is good. Who messed that up?

• Who is Mike Mayer to give the SG grades? That is supposed to be your job, Eagle!

• If I hate half my friends, what does that say about me?

• New shuttle shelters: make the bench longer. How are you supposed to lie down on them?!

• I want to have a lesbian one night stand. Any takers?

• I hate it when my roommate will interrupt me with "but you're rich" when I'm talking about my home life or anything else slightly related to wealth. I'm sick and tired of having you say that. News flash: my parents work hard, have saved a lot, and are the ones with the money ... NOT ME. Although my parents are well off, I don't get obscene amounts of money thrown at me, I use the money from my savings account (aka the money that I have been saving since I was born). So please stop judging, because it's rude.

• The tentacles of Women's Initiative have ensnared the Student Government in a level of political correctness which belies a tendency towards advocacy that is better suited in a club not a department.

• Oh TDR you make the perfect pizza. Why hasn't Tavern learned from your culinary ways????

• Why do people shun me for cutting my toenails in the library?

• What happened to clawedvice.tumblr.com? Update it!

• Not that I ever really cared about the SG, but I will certainly care a lot less when Mike Mayer's blog goes away.

• Dear Art Major, We totally appreciate your skills. But in terms of owning Katzen ... let's face it, we kind of do. Love, A Theater Major

• So tired of living in MPC (I bet most of you don't even know what or where that is).

• I tend to find more women to be attractive than most of my friends. Does this mean I'm more open-minded or that I have lower standards?

• Why is The Gathering allowed blast music at all hours of the night during 24-hour quiet hours? It's not fair and also very disruptive.

• Blowing and wiping a runny nose in the room is okay. When the volume reaches "snot rockets" it belongs in the bathroom.


Rant here!
