Rant here!
• Straight tolerant but conservative guy just wants to be loved by someone already. Why don't any of you ladies appreciate gentlemen anymore?
• Hard drive on my computer dies as I'm finishing an essay due in 5 minutes. FML!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Goes and uses friends computer to post Eagle Rant. Win.
&bul; I don't know how to love you less, but I guess we'll have to try.
• Semester students, please stop having sex on top of the Congressional 4 laundry machines. Some of us actually have to live here all year, and we don't want your fluids on our clothes.
• Ranting instead of reading. Win.
• @person criticizing lonely people: Just because you're in a bunch of clubs and go to a bunch of campus events doesn't mean you won't be lonely anymore. Maybe I'm homesick and miss my boyfriend. Maybe I'm just shy and don't make friends super easily. Have some understanding.
• @"@ “One event a year…” Well, you should learn how to spell okay before you go around criticizing grammer." It's double funny because you spelled grammar wrong and because the original poster didn't actually spell any words wrong. Hahaha
• @"Should men stop drinking so that they are less likely to rape someone?" Men and women should both drink responsible and not the a point where they can no longer account for their actions.
• @"if you all could give one piece of advice to an incoming freshman" Don't pick your roommate. Don't talk to them too much ahead of time, beyond who's bringing the fridge and who's got the TV. Keep your expectations low and open to change, and you'll be pleasantly surprised.
• Cheesy pickup line alert- On a scale of Nort Korea to America, how free are you tonight?
• Editor dearest, can you bring back the Top Rant tradition, i.e. putting the rant that is the funniest or best sums up the day/week at the top of the list? Much love, Avid ER consumer
• @"I was really sad about the Founder’s Day Ball, because I brought a gown." Why the eff did you buy a dress if you didn't have a ticket to go?
• I've taken to skipping class because this guy is, I think, sexually harassing me. It makes me uncomfortable and I tell him to stop every time, but it hasn't. But I don't know what to do - what if I say something and it turns into how I'm 'sensitive' and 'prude' and 'can't take a joke?'
• @"There’s a serious lack of stoner girls on campus." Just look for them. They're here, and they're cool as sh*t
• @person who wants smart drugs: google or wikipedia "neurtropics" (aka smart drugs). Enjoy.
• @@“Super nice, funny, normal... forever alone
• @the person who responded to my rant about "hipsters in TDR". My rant wasn't meant to suggest that there isn't a difference between the two, but more to comment on how glib the subjects of the rant sounded discussing the topic.
• If everyone just chilled a little more, this student body wouldn't be so sexually repressed.
• All of the girls in SOC and Marketing are really stupid. How did they get into this fine institution?
• Why is TDR featuring "African American Desserts" on the menu for tomorrow? What exactly does that mean? Dat's Racist.
• Dear professor, let me get this straight: we have a midterm next week, but you haven't written it yet, so you have no idea what form it will take and what subject it will be about and thus cannot tell us what to study. Well, that should be a fun midterm.
• AU was not founded in 1925 it was founded in 1893...
• There are few things stranger than seeing a person you thought was just a really butch girl walking away from a urinal in the mens room. Such an AU moment.
• I wish people would go somewhere other than Eagle Rants for information on how to diet and lose weight properly. The Health and Wellness Center has a TON of great info and programs that I'm sure are much more reputable than someone pointing out that yes you can in fact lose weight eating exclusively Twinkies...
• @ "obnoxious greek guy". Oh my god. I've been waiting for someone to talk about him. If he tells us one more time about how great Greece is, or corrects our awesome professor for trivial things one more time, a puppy may be sacrificed.
• Why won't you read my mind and realize I've got a huge crush on you? I'm way too shy to tell you myself.
• My abroad program has a bunch of students from another university and they are all super negative and don't care about immersing themselves in the culture. Sometimes AU/SIS kids drive me crazy but I have never been happier with my choice to come here than now. Ignorant and opinionated is much more annoying and abrasive than the average know-it-all "citizen of the world" in every SIS class.
• @"Merit scholarships are not a luxury. Those of us on them WORK for them, and they can be taken away. It’s not like we’re using that money to hit up Clyde’s every week." I have a merit scholarship too; don't read so much into the word choice. All I said was there are AU students who have financial need that aren't given the opportunity for a merit scholarship.
• @I came to college thinking that I was a far left liberal... ME TOO. I get more and more conservative each day I'm here, and I can't seem to stop it...
• What is with all these people whining about Jan Brewer still? Yes the hippies are douches but seriously? Man up and grow a pair and move on Republicans!
• Just realized that I will spend more time at AU than anywhere else I have lived before moving in freshman year #militarybratproblems
• I
• Listen gay people (yes I am breaking your PC rules and calling you all gay), I have nothing against you, but quit shoving your agenda in everyone's face in an obnoxious manner. Glitter bombing? Seriously? You are never going to gain supporters if you continue to act like petulant children. [Editor’s Note: This post is going to get glitter bombed so hard by @ rants tomorrow]
• rants sucked today... pick it up AU
• what is phonathon?
• So they're saying that it's gonna rain on Leap Day. That sucks...
• @ "Rangos and McBride rant: Nick Rangos is 10000% hotter than Tim McBride. He is a gorgeous hunk of a man with amazing abs. Amazing. Abs.
• almost just typed my rant in the comments box....awkward
• that awkward moment when your friend creeps up behind you in the mudbox and you yell out loud, really loud...
• Actually, I DID try joining a sorority. I gave it an honest try. When they invited me to "rush," or "join," or accept their "bid" or whatever, I wanted to run--no, SPRINT--in the other direction. I politely declined their offer. I am still friends with some of the girls in this particular sorority. Sororities aren't for everyone, and their activities often DO impose on others.
• @There’s a serious lack of stoner girls on campus: truth man, all i want is someone to blaze with and have a conversation with who isn't going to keep going on and on about "oomg im so high!'. stoner girls where you at??
• Douglas Bell has the voice of an angel. And the cello of an angel's harp. That doesn't even make sense.
• So, the Anderson laptop thief broke into my friend's room. The only thing he stole? The dude's Captain America DVD. That's almost insulting, like that was all he had that was worth stealing. It wasn't even one of the better movies he owned! Dear thief, if you're gonna get creative, can you just steal my homework?
• Sarcasm, that's original!
• @Tuesday: I'm so so so so so sorry! I totally forgot, it was one of those days where suddenly it was nine. Destiny is working against us. Thursday at 7?
• To the people who use the sky lounge: the sky lounge is a room in a residence hall, not a night club. Please remember that there are people who live near it and that have to put up with your ridiculously loud music and conversation. If you could tone it down a LOT, it would really be appreciated.
• Tim Mcbride, can I be your first lady?
• I used to think you were really cool, but once you started flirting super hard with nice guys even though you have a boyfriend, I lost all respect for you. Enough with the attention whoring. Have more self-confidence.
• hey tall, blue eyed ando5 vermonter lady- i like being your friend ^_-
• @Arrested Development Marriage Proposal: I'd walk across the ocean for you...
• "Uncle Gob, was Aunt Lindsay ever pregnant?" "Yeah, sure. Dozens of times."
• STEVE HOLT!
• "Whoa, whoa, whoa. There's still plenty of meat on that bone. Now you take this home, throw it in a pot, add some broth, a potato. Baby, you've got a stew going."
• Stud in Sigma Chi pledge class who can do a full backbend - That's almost as impressive as the fact that your entire pledge class is foxy as hell. You're like the ice-dream to the proverbial SigChi cake. Tasty.
• Go back to Party City where you belong! [Editor’s Note: This is the future of drag, honey. You look 20 years ago]
• I just spent 20 minutes crying in a stairwell.
• Even though I'm graduating, I'm moving into the area for the next year. Is it wrong that I'm excited to keep using AU's library?
• Omg Ringbom ranter I feel you, he has gorgeous eyes.
• @"Really? You’re going to charge me for a cup of hot water? I have my own tea bag. C’mon!" Ask for the smallest size paper cups and they can't say no! At least that's how it works in the Mudbox
• I'm tired of being people down on greek life. We do more than party. There's a minimum GPA to be in greek life so we do study. We do philanthropy for awesome charities. We work out and stay fit together. We hang out and have fun with our friends. Okay, greek life isn't for you, but stop hating on people for being in it.
• The conservatives should do the same with Angela Davis as the Occupiers did with Jan Brewer in my opinion. Just because its their legal right to do so. Not because I feel they need to get back at some injustice the Occupiers had done. The Occupiers were within their legal rights, and so are the tea partiers whenever they bring guns to events. I condone what the Occupiers do and I condone what the tea partiers do. I'm a very far left liberal, but everyone is entitled to their opinion. So Come At Me Conservatives. Give me your best shot.
• I think you saw something that made you think about me differently. It's not what you think, and I am not that kind of person. I have never done anything like that before. I wish you would just call me so we could talk.
• Awwww, straight white Xian REpubs have things sooooo hard..waaaaaaaaaaaaaa #yeshgetagrippeople
• Here's a thought. Maybe if some of the conservatives didn't criticize every little thing the Liberals did, maybe then we wouldn't be so "discriminatory" towards you. Seriously, every time I get into a political argument with anyone (liberal, conservative, anarchist, etc), I feel as if I'm being discriminated against because of my strong far left political beliefs. You think you're being discriminated against. Try putting yourself in the shoes of someone who just wants everyone to be happy (communist/communitarian/hippie). Not someone who only wants for themselves (capitalist, whether democrat or republican).
• Also: waaaaaaaaaa Student senators have things soooooooo rough.. #stfualrEADY
• STOP THINKING WITH PARTISAN BLINDERS!! WE'RE EACH UNIQUE THINK FOR YOURSELF!
• Have YOU got a rocket ship, Potter?
• @UnhealthyRelationshipWithFood Yay! I'm glad you're able to find help! Best of luck to you.
• @"why are you discriminated against if you are a straight white Christian Republican?" OH NO WON'T SOMEBODY PLEASE THINK OF THE STRAIGHT WHITE CHRISTIAN REPUBLICANS (seriously gagged writing that.)
• @ " Really? You’re going to charge me for a cup of hot water? I have my own tea bag. C’mon!" You went to the Dav didn't you? Don't go there. If you want free hot water you should go to the Katzen Cafe. Or The Perch. Signed, An Alum who knows where to get FREE hot water on campus
• @[Editor’s Note: What?]: Yes, thank you.
• @No Respect for WI: Ouch. That hurts, man. What did we Wisconsinites ever do to you?
• @AU Was founded in 1925: actually we were founded in 1893. I get your point, but still
• Can we stop "occupying" things now? "Occupy Wonk" doesn't make sense. You cannot physically occupy an ad campaign. Sorry folks.
• To the girl who was doing non stationary dumbell lunges at JFC on the side of the weights area where the mats usually are. At first I tried to be nice and find somewhere outside your realm of obnoxious space hoarding. Then you took my abs area not once but twice. Then you tried to act like you didn't know I was in that space. You are stupid and those exercises you were doing were stupid. How did you make it this far in life?
• @should men stop drinking to prevent rape As a man, I'd say yes. Drugs are bad.
• People stop and stare. They don't bother me. For there's nowhere else on Earth that I would rather be. Let the time go by. I don't care if I can be here on the street where you live....now if only I could work up the courage to actually tell you thar
• Went to dav. Wore blue. No show. Awesome.
• Why doesn't anyone talk about the 9th amendment?
• Norovirus will give you a Foggy Bottom #GW
• Icing, anyone?
• Gah, I want spring break. Bad.
• 12:10am is FANTASTIC time to have basketball practice on our floor. SO appreciated when I have a midterm at 8:55am tomorrow.
• PubSafe. PubSafe. Ramen
• So who is this Jan person everyone is ranting about? I didn't see anything about this events in the AU paper or when I googled it. Can someone please explain or provide a useful link? Love, confused alum (again)
• @ "
• To the obnoxious biddy that turned up the music in TDR: you're not hot, you're not cool, you're in AEPHI. No one cares.
• Patrick Burnett makes me want to smile all the time
• Dump your girlfriend. i promise you won't regret it
• The dems on campus are WAY too liberal, they really need to clean up their act or they'll lose a large portion of their participants.
• @stoner girls: agreed! although i think a lot of stoners are not as obvious about their habits, myself included. all i want to meet are some chill stoners too, why is that so difficult?
• cute hipster grl next door: ooohhhh, what building? ;)
• WTF!!!??? Why is eaglesecure so slow????
• My video is 15 minutes. I have been trying to watch it for an hour...
• Charlie Szold!!! I miss you!!!
• All I want is for something to happen. I have very much so moved on from nearly a year- emotional roller coaster which I nearly hit rock bottom from. I am moving on, onto someone else, who is becoming a near and dear close friend of mine. But I can't help but try and figure out if something can actually happen. I don't want to get hurt again.
• I wish I can just ask you out on a date instead of trying to form a party and hook up with you. I wish it was that easy. But coming on strong is a fear, I guess.
• I think about chicks every time I'm hooking up with my boyfriend. time to come out y/n?
• I'm drunk. [Editor’s Note: We know Eagleranter, we know.]
• yo let's cuddle...
• O'DOYLE RULES
• Lol, I heard a certain sorority asked their pledges to seduce Neil Kerwin. I heard at least 3 of them succeeded. Total Sorority Move! :D
• the EAGLE, you need a Stalinist style purge. All the people who write for you are obnoxious.
• If anyone wants to protest KPU bringing Angela Davis, an accused murderer who was on the FBI Top 10 Most Wanted List, meet on the steps of Ward that face the Quad at 8:20 next Wed. We'll show AU how a real, civil protest works
• @"stay gold": I LOVE YOU AND THAT BOOK AND THAT MOVIE!!!
• Oh jeepers creeepers, I just stubbed my taint on a railing in Letts Residential hall. What a load of millarky. We gotta get maintenance to repair these busted railings. They are on a straight shot right on over to my pen pen region. If anyone agrees with me, just call 911 ext. 411. Protect you're taints, Bimbos. It's simple science! [Editor’s Note: Rant of the year. Science!]
• Fellow Letts Hall Residents, If I don't get rid of this taint rash soon, Ima tell housing and dining to go efff themselves straight up y'all. These mattresses are full of critters. What a nightmare. Lemme get a shout out to Chris Brown #taintedlove
• @
• I'm really proud of my neighbor because I saw she was one of the protestors! Just want her to know anonymously: I think you're really cool!
• Henry Schneider went to bed at a reasonable time tonight! Hooray for him :D
• OmG. mY NeIgHbOrS tAlK sO lOuD!!! I just want to listen to my Santana wail!!!
• You gotta change your evil ways, baby. -HS
• I think you're really attractive. But you always seem to ignore me. It's sad because you pretty much described me as your dream girl.
• "There’s a serious lack of stoner girls on campus." Woah woah woah woah woah, lies my friend. You just haven't seen us. I can name 8 of my best friends who are stoners off the top of my head.
• "where are the Brazilians?! Oi!!" Eu estou aqui lindo :)
• OMG IT'S THE 29th DAY OF FEBRUARY!
• I guess we're not friends anymore, and I'm not sad or angry anymore. I just accepted it, and that's life.
• TODAY: the dav, at around 1145/1200 you and I ordered coffee around the same time and we each sat down at the same table with our respective friends. You wore a hat, hipster-ish glasses, a green&yellow plaid scarf. You smiled at me at the milk/sugar and smiled at me as I sat down. I wore a black and white striped shirt and a purple sweater. Meet at the Dav tomorrow at 6? :-)
• Today is leap day.. an extra day to seize. CARPE DIEM.
• In the air tonight. In the Dav today. It's so good I'm crying.
• Is it weird that I've never been to a frat party?
• Noone told me Shia Labeouf was reading poetry in the tavern! OMG SOOO MAD I MISSED HIM!!!
• Is that Kathy Bates... ...in a jacuzzi?
• @"I keep trying to go online to whine about having to download SafeConnect all the time..." Stop complaining...the previous Clean Access Agent was far worse! It would pop up 10+ times per hour.
• Don't you hate it when you read on the toilet for so long that your legs fall asleep, and when you try and stand up they just give out and you feel like you have ants crawling through them?
• The fact that people are still complaining about the Jan Brewer episode is quite hilarious. Contrary to popular belief, those who did protest actually sat there and LISTENED to what she had to say instead of carrying on like barbaric fools as many of you think. If you choose to protest Angela Davis at least have the common courtesy to go in there with an open mind and listen to what the woman has to say before you act.
• That awkward moment when you are sitting by yourself 5 minutes before class starts thinking, "did I miss something?" Then everyone else shows up
• I work in the library, and I am appalled by the number of loud people who try to walk around this publicly quiet space. And while it is funny to watch my boss chase you and pull you out of the library time after time, I really wish you would learn how to behave yourself and just keep your loud conversations outside. FAIL, CHILDREN, FAIL.
• What makes politics on this campus incredibly irritating is the vast generalization of people's political beliefs. Not all liberals are hippies. Not all conservatives are rednecks. We're better than this.
• @sooo excited for Jfelds! #justwanttowearjorts Aw hell yeah we need Jfelds in jorts! Bowchickawowow
• Can more of my tuition money please be allocated towards hiring more attractive, military veteran Dav workers, or maybe a raise for the one that already works there? Yum...
• With my freeze ray I can ________
• @ I-L-I-K-E-Y-O-U, Yes, you do need to spell it out. sometimes your hints seem clear and obvious; but they just play mind games. sometimes the other side is too nervous to make a move. but all in all... I-L-I-K-E-Y-O-U-T-O-O ;)
• Dakota Freeze and Patrick Burnett are not "public figures"... why have rants containing their names been posted? [Editor’s Note: Because they were nice]
• @"Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!": definetely thought there was going to be a d at the end of that...how low of me
• With my freeze ray I will stop the world. With my freeze ray I will find the time to, find the words to...
• First-and-last time I'm ever posting a rant like this: I had a 30 second conversation today with you in TDR. Then you waved at me when I was on my way out. You were very cute and sweet and I'm hoping to see you around soon...
• Leap Day...
• My stomach hair keeps getting caught in my belt, and it hurts to pull it out :(
• Real life is for March! Happy Leap Day!
• I didn't know February 29th was Leap Day until today. Is that lame?
• @FoodPoisoningatSubway ... The past two times I've eaten at Subway I've gotten sick as well!!!
• The amount to which I have facebook stalked you is probably bordering on actually stalking...
• @white, straight, Christian, Republican good golly it must be so hard to be the majority. boo hoo. What you're interpreting as "oppression" is probably just people who have actually been historically and systematically (key adjectives) venting their long built up frustrations. listen more, say less.
• I was browsing my news feed and was dismayed by how many people (at other universities) think it's totally cool to have "cowboys and indians" parties. AU, please give me faith that none of y'all would throw a nasty racist party like that. :(
• Happy Leap Day!! :)
• COME CUDDLE WITH ME!
• EAGLE RANTS WHERE ARE YOU?!?! [Editor’s Note: Right here.]
• Way to be Eagle, giving the AUCRs the back of the 20th page to discuss their discontent. And do not bs that it was due to deadline cause we know it's bs, republicans write for the Eagle you know.
• Hey, guy who disapproves of money going to counseling is back. To "you don't know illness" I know mental illness, it has resided not within myself but my family for years tearing us to the point of almost no return. But you know what? We chose to live and deal with our problems without forcing others to help us. We found ways to cope. When you post try to address the argument, not subjective experience.
• We lost a fish today. Hughes 5 [Editor’s Note: :( Though also for the record it was not one of the original DG fishes.]
• Now that we're thankfully "back together", I'm afraid of making any mistakes and losing you again! I also don't want to scare you away by telling you how much you mean to me. But just in case you were wondering, I love you very much :)
• @Tuesdayat7: I can't.. There's not enough time in the day!
• Dear world, Why aren't there any eagle rants about me? I'm basically the most awesome guy in the world! Sincerely, That Guy [Editor’s Note: They’re all about you]
• #foreveralone
• AU was definitely NOT founded in 1925, moron. Try 1893.
• I am slowly going insane with all this Disney music!!! I love Disney but this is just way toooooo much for me
• If there is a hell, it plays the bad Disney songs, and makes you listen to Justin Beiber
• We mold you into a childhood idol, but once your 18 you're on your own, which means enjoy all the drugs and alcohol you can buy with all the money you made in your teen years BE HAPPY!!!
• Why don't any of the girls I like ever like me back?
• There is a hell believe me, I've seen it. There is a heaven, Let's keep it a secret
• Cramps suck :(
• Dinner with me at TDR exhausted you so much that we won't do anything for the next two days ---- yet you could go to panera with someone random tonight.
• The way some students treat visitors (ie Brewer, etc..) makes me ashamed of this university. If you want to claim that someone is a bigot, perhaps you should grow up and do it in a polite fashion. The actions ov every student on this campus effect the way the world sees us. If we are truely the tolerant campus we claim to be, we need to respect everyone, no matter what we think of their personal beliefs or actions.
