Jan. 28 Eagle Rants

•@Public Service Rant: Thanks for the heads up!

•I knew I wouldn't make it, and I told myself that for the past three days, but finding out I didn't make it still really upset me and made me feel so stupid. Sigh.

•@"nobody is impressed with your cleaning lady" The original rant was not meant to impress; it was meant to rant. But your defensiveness suggests severe jealousy, so you should probably see someone about that.

•@"nobody is impressed with your cleaning lady" I doubt the person ranting about the cleaning lady has a "crappy college apartment". Use your brain a little.

•@"Honestly, my LDR works so well that I'm a little nervous about what will happen when we're actually together and get to have a normal relationship" So true. The last time I visited my boyfriend at his school, he told me he would like me to leave because he preferred our relationship long distance.

•@"I don't know what I want. Stay in a LDR with a guy who's not in college or end it and see what develops with someone here...HELP ME." Is there a good reason he is not in college? My advice would be to find someone with higher educational standards. And can you really be attracted long term to someone less smart/educated than you?

•@Disney channel rants: I know, I totally miss Toon Disney Channel!

•I'm really f-ing sick of people opening my mail and then lying about it.

•Impeach Dunham!

•Don't impeach Anthony Dunham!!!! He's awesome!!

•This campus is waaaayyyyy too small. The minimal degrees of separation is killing me.

•Wow! Pajama Fridays! I'm totally doing that next week!

•Never thought that I'd be falling in love with you...I'm scared

•Gonna go to see Beethoven's 3rd next week! I love DC!

•Give me my books Amazon! I shouldn't have to wait this long :(

•You see me talking on the phone, and yet you are trying to make conversation with me. RUDE

•Up in the library on a Friday night...what has my life become?

•@Why does it seem like every single girl here rushed? #lonely It's ok, I'm a girl and I didn't rush either! the way I see it, it's basically buying friends...

•Props to KPU for getting Clinton to come to campus! I'm super impressed.

•The one person who couldn't get a Bill Clinton ticket....

•Oh my god! We're having a fire! Sale. OH THE BURNING! IT BURNS ME! Evacuate all the schoolchildren!

•Why is that every student job AU posts has to be FWS? I mean I understand giving out priority to those that qualify, but really? Every job? Can't you open it up to all students eventually if the position hasn't been filled?

•Hahahahaha maybe you need a nose and sinus transplant.

•Adjuncts: Think of the students tuition and oppose compulsory, rent-seeking unionism.

•My friends all live in a different floor and all of them have made new friends and never talk to me anymore. It's really sad that they never bother to walk two floors when I willingly walked them all last semester. I feel so lonely. I want to join clubs, but AU's clubs are all about politics and saving the world. I don't like people on my floor because they are all fake and talk behind each other's backs. My only friends are my computer and the gym :[

•Dear family: you have acknowledged that my boyfriend is wonderful. You have acknowledged that I am making rational decisions and working extremely hard in school, and succeeding. Please, leave my long distance relationship ALONE. Pretty sure none of you have ever been in an LDR. STFU, please!

•Why do girls hate it so much when you call them the wrong name? Mistakes happen!

•When someone asked my celebrity crush, I said Tim McBride

•Maybe I'm just jaded, but as a senior, all the underclassmen here seem so damn immature.

•@be my best friend please. I live in the Dav! Come yell out some KKG spirit at me (don't judge me)

•Showing up drunk to Bill Clinton @ AU is not cool. I hope you guys are freshman so it gives you some slight excuse to be so stupid.

•Guys, I shook Bill Clinton's hand. WHICH WAS AMAZING. But it's not enough. He needs another Monica in his life, and I am willing to fulfill that role.

•@ Are there any other gay girls on this campus? Queers and Allies is a social club, not a political or activist one.

Rant here!
