The return of the farmer's market on campus makes me so happy … love me some fresh apples on fantastic challah bread with scrumptious honey :)
Dear AEPHI biddies on the second-floor of the library,
I realize you had an AWESOME weekend, with your AWESOME friends and therefore have many AWESOME stories to tell but please move to the Marketplace with the rest of your clones and stop distracting me while trying to study. Greek life has already inhabited half of the university; please leave the 2nd floor to the remaining GDIs.
Nate Bronstein has won the March Madness tournament … solo … twice.
AU wonk campaign, the biggest waste of people’s money since Obamacare.
To the people telling me that it's illegal to ride on the sidewalk. Thanks. I didn't know that. I was walking while I saw this woman riding her bike, and she was in the middle of the road. I think it's much safer to ride on the side if you're going to ride on the road.
Greek week is the worst.
I've been having trouble getting my homework done, so I decided to look up information on how to overcome procrastination. After reading one paragraph into an article on ending procrastination, I found myself on Facebook. FML
Having only paper towel bins in the bathroom without having a bin for "other trash" is stupid and I will continue "contaminate the bin" until there is another trash can option in the bathrooms.
I think I am going to suffer an anxiety heart attack at age 22.
The environmental radicals on campus really turn me off from wanting to help the environment. Rather than restricting convenience, they should be creating more convenient ways to help the environment.
To whomever chewed gum behind me the whole time during our Macro exam: please DON'T next time! I couldn't concentrate the whole time because the sound of your chewing dominated my senses. At least, don't chew as loud! It's extremely inconsiderate during an exam.
You have many contacts
Among the lumberjacks
To get you facts
When someone attacks your imagination
But nobody has any respect
Anyway they already expect you
To just give a check
To tax-deductible charity organizations
Dear a student who realizes how lucky she is to be a college student,
I know that we are entirely lucky to be a college student and to have what we do. but I pay $50,000 a year to go to this school. i don’t know if you understand how much that is but its A LOT of money. I should be able to get the most for my money. I am tired of people giving my crap for being privileged. It’s not my fault I was born here and it’s not my or their fault that they were born there. So please keep your opinions to yourself. OK great
To the idiots who ran across the stage at opening ceremonies,
It wasn't funny, you only made a fool out of yourselves and your frat. Have some self-respect and respect for others. I am really sick of immature frat guys. It is such a turnoff
IT'S CALLED A QUIET FLOOR FOR A REASON. SHUT UP!
I HATE GREEK WEEK. STOP SCREAMING.
"Dear people who put food out at their club’s event: Having only green tea is not okay. Especially at an evening or night even. I do want to be kept up all night due to caffeine. And I also do not like to eat without having a drink. Some fruit juice would be nice."
uhhhhh green tea has no caffeine. Where have you been?
To the person in this week's Eagle who ranted about the friend who never talks to them when they stop by to talk to their roommate: I’ve been that friend. Problem is, if you're the friend I don't talk to when I show up, it's because your buddy/boyfriend is always half-naked in your bed when the door opens. Work on that.
If nicotine is the pleasure providing chemical in cigarettes and nicotine patches contain nicotine, then why do smokers not just get their high from nicotine patches and therefore avoid annoying people around them who have to smell the gross smoke? What am I missing here? I seriously don't understand the psychology of people who smoke when we live in an age of technology where the nicotine chemical can be isolated from the tobacco plant and put in a self-contained patch. Do smokers just enjoy giving other people cancer for kicks? Someone please explain …
Can we publish the year's eagle rants in a book, please? I would so buy that book before I would buy a yearbook. I think it would be a great way to remember AU after I graduate. The Eagle could make a lot of money selling an Eagle Rants book. Or they could raise lots of money for charity.
It's funny how the people who yell and scream that they hate AU never seem to give any actual reasons why besides hurling vague insults. I love AU. I have loved it all 4 years I am here. I'm glad I turned down Georgetown and other higher ranked schools because they all lacked the engagement and passionate intellectualism that makes AU so special. I am really going to miss AU after I graduate. I hope the school is still as great when my own future kids go here someday.
I am tired of seeing (and writing) sad rants. So here goes a happy rant: I love how beautiful the flowers are here, especially in the amphitheater. Batelle Atrium is wonderful place to study. I have such wonderful professors! The Dav plays wonderful music! Our dorms are actually very clean. My friends are all engaged in interesting clubs! Eagle Rants are entertaining! The Career Center is awesome! SG may be complicated and dramatic from the outside because many of them care enough about the school to spend an excessive amount of time doing SG stuff.
Neighbors, WHY ARE YOU SO LOUD. Leave the dorms once in awhile. Aren’t most of you like 25?
Stoooooop whinning about cigarette smoke. Go study or live abroad and realize you have it damn good in the U.S. No, I'm not a smoker. No, I don't like the smell of it. I'm just not a total baby who thinks that everyone should conform to my standards.
Sorry to the person I offended with my S-N side shuttle rant. You're not the only one I’ve seen do it though …
Nate Bronstein doesn't read textbooks for class. He stares the textbooks down until they tell him what he needs to know.
@person who wants to be friends again
- Person probably doesn't want to talk to you
Nate Bronstein can make a triangle with 2 right angles
Is Conor Shapiro’s article about Obama's poor March Madness judgment or about SG elections? Or perhaps it's about his unprofessional judgment of other people's letters about the SG elections that are appearing right beside his column? Or perhaps it's about The Eagle's lack of judgment in hiring a grad student to comment on the undergraduate student government? I'm confused.
I want the AU administration to WONK a mile in my shoes.
Screw you, Greek Week. I just want to study in my room, but no, your speaker system is loud enough to be heard on the opposite side of campus and your lights could send an epileptic into seizure. Leave us normal kids alone!
Greek Week is for everyone. Yeah. OK.
To the ranter who wonders why there are not Reese's in the vending machines: I COMPLETELY AGREE. Reese's lovers should not stand for this BS any longer.
To the people telling me to control my road rage: I WAS NOT DRIVING WHEN I SAW THE GIRL RIDING THE BIKE. I was walking and I was very concerned for her safety. The last thing I wanted to see was a girl getting hit by a car as I walked to work. People in cars were getting mad at her and I just wanted her to move to the right side. I have read the D.C. bike laws and it says to ride on the right side, not in the MIDDLE of the road.
@ All smoker haters (especially the ones criticizing me for walking while smoking and littering)
I smoke. I smoke while walking. I don't like to stay in one place for long, because ever since I was little I was a wanderer. Even when I'm smoking, I like to explore. Hell, I'll even go to the park down Massachusetts Ave at night while smoking. I am considerate while smoking and walking. I do not exhale the cancerous smoke in your direction. I even hold the cigarette behind my back, or switch which hand the cigarette is in so that way it is not in your general direction as we pass each other while walking. Sorry I'm such a big problem for you. And yeah, sometimes I do throw cigarettes on the ground. Sometimes I don't. I usually don't, especially when I'm right near a trashcan. Hell, even if I'm walking along Nebraska from the Tenley CVS back to campus, I'll wait until I see a trash can (usually by Nebraska Hall) before discarding a cigarette. I can guarantee you that you have at least once in your own lifetime littered. And don't try to prove me otherwise. I know of no one who hasn't littered before. We are all sinners in that regards (and I'm an atheist).
@ Can anyone give me a legit reason as to why you smoke cigarettes? There are so many other healthier, CHEAPER alternatives that don’t give you cancer and a nasty stank that follows you around no matter how much you try to cover it up.
It lets me live a shorter life, which I'd rather have. I don't want to live another 70 years on this planet when all I get is shit from people. See I've been picked on to the point of no return. I've been rejected and stabbed in the back multiple times. I have trust issues, where I assume people are being phony even if they are really sincere. I don't feel like I am worth anything to anyone except my family. And while I love my family dearly, if I can't connect with anyone outside of that, I'll feel extremely lonesome. I don't even feel appreciated or wanted at times. Hell, I've been told I'm attractive (by my mother, >_>, and some other people), yet I don't see any girls checking me out. I have no idea why they wouldn't. So instead of guessing, I smoke. It helps to divert their attention from whatever unattractive feature I might have that isn't smoking. I'd rather be disliked for smoking rather than who I am as a person or what I look like. Screw that.
Dear Davenport Lounge,
I thought with my consistent customer loyalty and your consistent quality or awesome, our relationship was pretty great. So why did you charge me almost $30 for a coffee and scone on my Eagle Bucks?
Sincerely,
A broken hearted customer who just might start taking extra cups of coffee for the rest of the semester.
I let my friends walk all over me. I pay dues to a sorority whose girls collectively don't give a shit about me or my wellbeing. I drunkenly hook up with random guys well past the point where I would soberly say stop. I hope one day I stop feeling so worthless and isolated and gain some self-esteem.
Why does the fitness center close so frickin' early on weekends? Some of us actually want to work on our health on Friday nights rather than get trashed. Can we please find room in the budget for a few extra hours?
When I'm standing in line next to a stranger, I always wish one of us would start a conversation. Not sure if this is a common sentiment or not.
@ I wish that we could be friends again. I don’t know how to approach you and I’m not even sure which of us should apologize at this point. Until we figure it out, do you think that we could move on from awkward encounters to small talk? Then maybe Starbucks.
Assuming your the person I’m thinking of. You keep saying you feel awkward to be around me or even talk to me. I've wanted to talk to you for MONTHS. Maybe I shouldn't have said that I liked you. But you cornered me into revealing my feelings. That was hard for me to do. To reveal my feelings to you. I don't know why you had to react the way you did. You should have anticipated the yes when you asked me that question. Whether or not I liked you. I did. You didn't get the hint the first time around when we went to dinner. Or the Harry Potter dance?
And for the record, I saw something about a month and a half ago on Like A Little. I've been wanting to ask you for weeks about this. Was it you who posted that. That you wanted to be more than friends.
Just please talk to me. Lets end the awkwardness. Because its obvious you’re hurting over this as much as I am. We're missing out on our friendship (and possible romance if you feel the same way I feel about you). And if we aren't meant to be anything at all, we're missing out on closure. I'd be happy if you just gave me some closure. Of course I'd be even more happy if we were friends (and even more ecstatic if we were together ^w^). But that’s just me being hopeful again.
@ Am I the only one that thinks Greek Week is just an excuse for the Greek community to do the public equivalent of masturbating while looking at themselves in the mirror? You all know its true.
You're wrong, GDI. Greek Week is not only a wonderful series of events that raise money for various charities, but an 8-day bender. With Jell-O. If you had friends, maybe you'd understand.
On the water bottle issue: I have a reusable water bottle that I carry around daily. I support this method as I think paying for water is stupid when you can get it for free. On the other hand, however, sometimes I forget this bottle at home. On one of these days, over winter break, I was working a 6-hour shift in the library. Being that it was winter break, the Mud Box was not open, and my only option was the staff vending machine — which appears to be on the "green" initiative, as it contained NO WATER BOTTLES. So I reluctantly purchased a soda, even though I hate soda, because I didn't want to rely solely on water fountains for a day, as I would have to continuously interrupt my work to get nearly enough water. I'll have you know that, while I normally recycle, I went OUT OF MY WAY to throw the can in a trashcan out of sheer spite. While I agree that buying water bottles from vending machines is wasteful, water is a basic human right and should be made available to those of us who are occasionally forgetful.
RE: If you push the automatic door-opener in MGC or Ward or any of the other buildings and are not visibly disabled (including on crutches), carrying something large/heavy or elderly, be aware: I am judging you.
I've always been under the impression that if you forcibly open those automatic doors without pushing the button, you increase the chances that you will break them. Then when someone who really needs the extra hand from the door can't open the door, they're screwed. And then you're just an asshole judging people for making sure that doesn't happen. Weird, huh.
Mad about low-flow showerheads? They're not new showerheads, just the old ones with an extra washer in them to reduce flow. You can remove it with a screwdriver. You're welcome.
I know I was limping in the library, due to my leg being asleep. You assumed I had cerebral palsy and babied me and talked to me really slowly. Guess what, bucko? Even if I did have cerebral palsy, people with CP have the same range of intelligence as anyone else, and certainly don't need your pity or baby talk. I get that you were trying to help, but GEESH.
Love,
A gal whose good buddy has CP
I'm not pretty enough to have straight male friends, but I'm a dorky girl with stereotypically male hobbies and interests. Back home, a good 80% of my friends were gay guys, and they all joked I'd have an easy time making friends at a campus with so many gay men. So how come I basically only have female friends at AU? They're super-nice, but we have nothing in common. Where are all the gay dudes?
The Department of Performing Arts disappoints me. Their shows aren't as good as those by the Rude Mechanicals, a student organization, and some of the actors in Measure for Measure didn’t even seem to understand the words they were saying when acting Shakespeare.
Just because I'm fat doesn't mean I don't care about the environment. Don't automatically assume I'm one of those lazy blobs from WALL-E! I'd think you green people would want all of the help you can get in saving the world, even if it's not from a cute, skinny little hipster. How is it even clever to say, “The McDonalds is that way?" Don't you think a fat person like me would already know where the McDonalds is? (By the way, I'm vegetarian. And I don't eat fast food.)

@complaining about $3 for laundry. I pay 4.50 Euro (~$6.40) to use the exact same machines while studying abroad
So this campus is supposed to be green, right? Then how does my professor get away with demanding that we each print out (on average) 30 pages per class of the readings she provides online because she wants proof that we did the readings?
How does wasting trees prove that we read anything?!
Are there any other seniors staying at AU for summer classes this summer? Can we be friends? All of mine will be gone. :)
Dear law schools, Why do you hate me and continue to ignore me? I want my decision letters!
Tenley ice cream station > TDR ice cream station. Thanks Eagle Rants person. :)
Am I the only senior not planning on doing the whole graduation ceremony show. I'm fine with AU just mailing me my diploma. I love AU and all, but I'm not really one for ceremonies that don't really seem to have a point beyond conforming to what people expect. I'm going to grad school, so it's not like I'm even done with school yet anyway. Why do we need to have graduations every few years? Someone please tell me I'm not the only nonconformist skipping out on graduation …
@ Dear Eagle,
Thanks for publishing the ad for Boston University’s summer for-credit internship program — a wonderful opportunity to gain experience and earn credit … wait, what? Too bad my adviser said that no credits can be transferred in to AU once you actually come here.
What are you talking about? Unless you're already over your transferable credit limit, you can totally transfer credits to AU from other institutions. What do you think study abroad is? Talk to someone else if your adviser sucks that bad.
If bikers want to be on the road, they should RESPECT TRAFFIC LAWS! Just because you are on a bike doesn't mean you should swerve through cars and run red lights!
I signed up for Victoria's Secret spam email alerts not because I like Victoria's Secret but because they start off their emails saying "Hi, Gorgeous" and it's nice to know that someone thinks I am beautiful. Even if it is just a computer.
Dear people complaining about the lack of student involvement in AU student government: The fact that AU students are ambivalent about student government is a strong indicator that AU students are very happy with the way the University runs things. If we weren't, then more people would be involved in student government trying to fix what they see as problems in the university. I for one, love everything about AU. I don't participate in student government because if I feel something needs to be fixed, I suggest it to the right department and AU fixes it. Go AU!
Since the Eagle has yet to start a spin-off column for Eagle Raves, I am going to do my "Rave" here. I'm really proud of AU for having such a strong plan for AU's future over the next 10 years. The campus definitely needs more dorms and a new communication building, so I'm really glad to see AU making the campus even more beautiful and fulfilling to students. My last university didn't really have a plan for the future, and if they did, it sure wasn't shared with students at town hall meetings with the University president like it is at AU. I can't wait to come back years from now and see how much more awesome the campus looks. :)
I love how AU hates on smokers, yet most people here will jump to the defense of drug addicts, drug dealers and prostitutes and say that they are a product of their environment. I grew up with smokers. I smoke. Where is my political action committee?
Dear Women's Initiate Face-Naked Campaign (where you provide girls with make-up remover): I don't wear make-up. My face is always naked. And I feel like most girls at AU also do not wear make-up either. Please stop making me feel like I should be wearing make-up on a regular basis.
To whichever girls complain about the guys around here:
Yes there are a lot of “assholes.” They only constitute a portion of the campus population. So before you go around making blanket statements, take a look in the mirror and ask yourself: Am I choosing guys based solely on what they look like? Am I pigeonholing myself into only wanting a certain type of guy? Am I turning a blind eye to a potentially untapped market of guys? I've learned as a guy that some of the best girls aren’t always right in front of you. Maybe you all could learn the same.
Dear Annoyed,
Next time we have that class together on the second floor of Hurst and my sniffling bothers you, you can march down to the basement and get some tissue for me.

Dear man in Tenleytown who did not thank me for holding the door open for him but instead called me out on not being for D.C., thanks for reinforcing my opinion that people from D.C. are ridiculously inhospitable. And you can get your own door next time.
Dear AU language department,
Thank you for coming to your senses and adding an Intermediate Korean course, considering, you know, we still need those extra two semesters to graduate, whether you offer them or not.
Dear guy in my language class who only complains about his home life and how hard things are and about how he doesn't deserve any of it and yet goes out and gets drunk every day of the week and brags about it on Facebook, please refrain from dropping so many f-bombs in class, or at least from shouting them at the top of your lungs. Our teacher is the sweetest woman ever, and she doesn't deserve it.
Why do the dryers keep leaving burn marks on my favorite shirts? Can we get better dryers or just have less time on them.
A girl on my floor had a little kid night with a My Size Barbie for big little week. I think I joined the wrong sorority
I wonder how many 'Type your rant here!' get submitted each week …
AU should have an Asian music club. You closet fans are out there, I know it!!
I am hands down the happiest I have ever been, all because of a guy. The only downside is that I kinda miss being bitter and cynical about guys at AU …
To bookstore ISBN ranter: the "Buy Textbooks" link on HYPERLINK "http://my.american.edu/"my.american.edu gives you a list of textbooks for the classes you're registered for. Most professors put them up before the semester starts. Excelsior!
So AU keeps a stop on my account after my bill's paid … because I was $9.88 short. $1000, even $100, I can understand. But nearly stopping me from registering because of TEN WONKING DOLLARS? I'm pretty sure there's some AU Central tosser who has my name on a list of "students we want to go through the same hell every year for registration."
EDITOR’S NOTE: This editor had a stop on her account for owing $0.50.
@ "To the person in this week’s Eagle who ranted about the roommate’s inconsiderate friend: I have the same problem except my roommate and I have a mutual friend. He/she constantly stops by ONLY to talk to him/her and barely says two words to me. They are so much more interested in my roommate’s life and goings-ons and it hurts my feelings. Am I not as cool?"
I am the person who submitted the original eagle rant, and I feel compelled to tell you that this "mutual" friend is really only your roommate’s. If she were yours she would care about what's going on in your life.
@For some AU students, I have the following question: Are your diamond shoes too tight and is your wallet too small for your $100’s?
I feel you, and wonder why they let me in here. I got holes in my favorite shoes and my wallet coughs when I open it.
@I hate annoying people who whistle while they walk places. Shut the f up and whistle in your own room. No one wants to listen to you.
You suck the joy out of everything. Seriously.
Correction, the twitching tree in the library is creepy as fuuu.
Wait someone blamed the lack of an SIS candidate on the SG ballot on the SG? WAT.
Nate Bronstein: Start showing some knee ;]
AU's "History Day" is only another annoying obstacle to graduating, a chance to present obscure nonsense to smug academics and graduate students, people whose parents didn't beat their obnoxious asses for being rude. WHY do we have to do this crap?
To the Ranter who said: "Student Government lost all creditability when I went to vote and NOBODY was running for SIS president. Really?"- Question, why didn't you step up and run? It seems you need to improve your knowledge of politics and do some research before voting, then you would have known no one was running and could have stepped up.
I wish more people would rant about personal family issues. I feel like everyone I know at AU has this perfect little loving family. Meanwhile, my divorced parents fight over who will pay my tuition and apartment money, my mom doesn't call me and doesn't want me to ever visit home and I win awards but my family never asks about me, so they don't know anything about my life at AU. And my little sister is too young to call me but I miss her terribly. I love AU, but I'm still not happy because I feel like I don't have real love in my life.
To the girl in my International Law class:
If you spray your nasty-smelling perfume during class one more time, I'm going to jump over my desk and spray it in your eyes. You give me a migraine EVERY CLASS!!
Sincerely,

The sad thing about The Eagle's April Fools issue is that most of their "joke" articles actually seem believable. Kind of a sad reflection of what AU has become.
"WONK Pride." Isn't that an oxymoron?
The Ward Cafe is no longer accepting debit cards, apparently because they are losing money. I don't believe this for a second, as I have never seen such offensively high prices for food and drink as at the Ward Cafe. $6+ for a terrible sandwich half the size of one from subway? They should be ashamed.
Hey person who can't wait to transfer. You apology is not accepted. Get the f out
Why are there now going to be TWO class times starting before 9 a.m. next year? Do you really think there is such a demand for earlier classes? If 7 a.m. is too early for shuttle service, it's too early for classes. Please stop trying to fix non-existent problems.

Dear "Can anyone give me a legit reason as to why you smoke cigarettes?"
Smoking feels absolutely amazing and I've met so many new people while smoking.
That is all.
I LOVE AU. The people here are educated, nice and easy to get along with. The academics are challenging, but not too challenging. The teachers care about their students. And we're in friggin D.C., the U.S. capital! I love it here, so much. I just wanted to spread some positivity :)
What is it about spring that brings out all the feminists … seriously shut up.
When will you realize that talking and laughing in a Collaborative Work Room in the library does not mean that the rest of the people can't hear you? Thank you for helping me study.
Did Conor Shapiro really compare Tim McBride to Obama?
What is that truck that's been on the quad? I read about it last semester but I CAN'T BELIEVE that actually happened. American university should really be more concerned about its diet and set an example for healthy, environmentally conscious food.
Are we actually trying to make students take mandatory sexual assault prevention classes? I'm sure it will be a success much like alcohol education classes prevent alcohol abuse. Heck, the sheer stupidity of the idea makes me think that Charlie and the rest of the editors at the school newspaper proposed the idea.
How hard is it to show your ID to the desk when you come in. YOU'VE ALREADY GOT IT OUT. And when we ask you to show it, don't give us dirty looks — we're doing our job.
Me: Can you connect me to the government department please?
AU Information operator: You want me to call them for you?
Me: No, I just need to be connected.
AU Information operator: So you want their phone number?
Me: No, I just need to be connected to their phone line.
AU Information operator: silence and confusion
Wow. And these are AU students. But I called back an hour later when someone else was working and all was fine.

Guys, panic at the disco was just playin' in the Dav. Thought you should know.
Why is it snowing in April? Screw this. Bring on the global warming.
I'm pretty sure I'm going to graduate from AU without ever having worn shorts in the spring of my final year.
Why does the lunch lady glare at me? She WILL NOT win. I will not back down. I shall prevail.
This is the song that never ends … … …
To the wanna be gangster shuttle driver ... I think you take your role a little too seriously. If I want to stand when there are open seats there is absolutely no reason for you to request I sit down. Just a few weeks ago I heard you encouraging people to move back because you fit 60+ people on the bus. You are obviously not telling me to sit down out of concern for my safety. You are not nearly as cool as the upbeat, cheerful man who always announces his stops. "Next stop Brandywine/CVS!"
To the guy who let me steal his computer in the SOC lab so I could download my file: You are literally the nicest person ever and you completely turned my bad day around just by being nice. Thank you!
This is such a trivial complaint, but it baffles me: How did the person who designed the water fountains in Kreeger not realize that it's impossible to drink from them without getting water all over the walls/floor?
My biggest embarrassment so far here at AU? Hosting a prospective student and having to explain why our school thought "wonk" was a good multi-million dollar ad campaign to put all over D.C.
Why does the soda machine in the Tavern never work!? Right now there's no ice, Diet Coke or Sprite! I'm stuck drinking warm, crappy sweet tea.
Thursday's film screening of "Defamation" = best event at AU all year. Finally some actual debate of an issue.
Who are all the old people who always show up at the Center for Israel events? I was disgusted by how rude they were to a speaker AU invited. Aren't AU events supposed to be for AU students, not for a special interest lobby group that Center for Israel seems to value more than letting its own students ask questions!
The Eagle article on the number of people AU students sleeps with was completely disgusting and one sided to me. My number is one and it is going to stay that way for the rest of my life. Unless I know I am with the one person I am going to spend the rest of my life with, then I am not just going to hand over my body like fast food to some guy I meet at a party. Respect yourselves, people.
Dear rude girl in Katzen,

Major props to the Eagle for their reporting on the VAWA grant. The only place that reported the story without a slant, and talked to both sides.
Will everyone please get off smokers' backs? Everyone has a vice, whether it's alcohol, junk food or bitching about other people to make one feel superior. And these days it seems like everything will give you cancer.

ONCE AN EAGLE ALWAYS AN EAGLE!!!!
Most people at AU are extremely nice people. You, on the other hand, are not one of those people. You give a bad name to the university. You disgust me with your immature rudeness. Please go back home, jerk.
You know who you are.
I hate you all.
I would appreciate it if people would stop ranting about elections. I was only trying to do a job that I was thrown into. You go under the amount of pressure I went under for a month, and then come talk to me about sanctions and elections. Furthermore, wish The Eagle would leave me alone. Resigned. I'm done. No more phone calls! So to the person who ranted about sanctions … blame the system. Not the people working in the system.
Rant here!
