•That awkward moment when you hear your friend (who's in SIS) complaining about too many class choices right after you have a mental breakdown about how there's barely any classes/sections being offered that you need because you're in CAS...why does this school not give a crap about anyone who isn't in SIS or SPA???
•Can Greek Life participants find a better way to celebrate their organizations than belting bad pop songs and disrupting the entire campus?
•I'm just looking for a consistent distraction until we leave school. Nothing real. No real strings. Just a regular hook-up, some sleeping over, easy. Where are all the willing men-folk?
•The greatest rants editor ever goes back to editing the rants and there are no editor's notes? DISAPPOINTED. [Editor's note: Thanks for the compliment! Unfortunately, none of the Rants were note-worthy last time.]
•@"Upset that there is no Frederick Douglass scholarship equivalent" You don't have to be a minority to receive the FD scholarship. I'm friends with a blonde-hair blue-eyed FD scholar.
•@"I get weird looks." Sounds like a you problem. Are you initiating the weird looks. AU people are the nicest, most accepting, most real people I've met in my life. And it's a huge school, so there are very diverse groups of people here.
•Can I just say how awesome Legend of Korra was? I'm so glad those first two episodes were leaked!
•@”in my opinion, if you come up and introduce yourself and say something to make me laugh, I am automatically hooked” wow, way to perpetuate the stereotype that girls are shallow fools who respond to cliché pick up lines. The real way to approach a girl is to engage her mind and interests by having discussions over meaningful topics that she appreciates. Try sending her an article that you think she will enjoy. That’s how my bf landed me. s
•@person considering transferring due to weird looks: If you would really transfer schools due to weird looks rather that true academic reasons, then maybe you deserve some weird looks.
•Love whoever it was who decided to sell Girl Scout Cookies in the Eagle's Nest.
•feelin like a champ cause i found the 3/27 rants. well played, former editor [Editor's note: Congrats, grasshopper, you passed the challenge!]
•To the freshman with long hair, goatee, and guitar case that has flames on it: You are totally weirdly hot. I'd love to get to know you.
•Ma belle you were wearing a gray sweater and blue jeans when I nearly bumped into you in the library this evening. You took my breath away with your beautiful brown hair and smile. I hope I see you again.
•Dear Eagle Rants editor, I hope you're ok!
•I hope people understand that one of the reason "white" people get no financial aid compared to minorities is because as a whole "white" people tend to own over 100k worth of possessions while minorities have less than 10k. You can easily sale your house and buy a cheaper one and use that money for school. I have nothing to sell.
•While it's not as much as the Frederick Douglas Scholarship, AU does give out Presidential Scholarships that are worth 20k per year. I'm a white middle-class male and I got one. The only problem with it that I didn't end up getting any need based aid because they decided the scholarship was enough.
•@the Emily Yu staffer who pretended to be different voters who couldn't support Abby anymore: I see what you did there.
•Not sure why anyone would vote against someone for BOE violations - they punish creativity. I think it speaks more poorly of the Yu campaign that they filed the stupid complaints. Just one reason to vote for Abby.
•Eagle rants coup? Phooey, I wanted a BOE coup.
•@Upset that there is no Frederick Douglass scholarship equivalent for non-minority kids--- SAME!
•All nighters aren't as much fun when the rest of your roommates are asleep. I miss my old roommate. We had similar sleep schedules.
•Why isn't Nick Rangos running for RHA President?
•Yes, I totally needed to know what was on the menus for the University Club this week. It's bad enough that the new Today@AU sucks, but perhaps you could keep announcements that students don't give a damn about away from the STUDENTS section of the email?
•Holy HTML explosion, Batman!
•you and your friend were in TDR by the salad section, you looked me up and down, said 'i know, right' to your friend and laughed. you have no idea how ugly I feel every day. and it doesn't help that I happen to have the flu and haven't slept. thank you making me regret leaving my dorm room.
•@"No, I’m not alright. I’m miserable. But I can’t tell you about it, and it sucks because you’re the one person I want to tell the most" I'm not going to pry any deeper, and I think you know why. If you get to a point where you can talk to me, please, please do. I care about you, and I'm not going anywhere anytime soon.
•Love God, Love others
•Charles Merrick is correct. Whoever wins the SG Presidency, I DARE you take at the very least a 10 percent paycut.
•@"I hope one of the girls running for president wins because these guys are just ridiculous." You do realize that was kind of the point for one of them, right?
•Actually, you're 'waiting' just makes you obnoxiously prude and ridiculous. There's nothing noble about attaining your virginity well into adulthood. It's not 'special', as you'll come to find out when she leaves you for someone better in bed ;).
•You might be a liberal if...you support the individual mandate. And you might be a liberal if...you're a fascist.
•'Exercising self-control' = idiot. There are many ways to 'exercise self-control' without missing out on a wonderful natural thing that makes life worth living. Yesh get a life (or a blow up doll).
•@ "I’m 22 and I met my also a virgin bf at AU my senior year" Just because you aren't a virgin does not mean that you "sex with some random stranger at a party". Some people have been in other serious committed relationships that have led to sex
•The reason why other campaigns haven't gotten charged with violations is because nobody but the Yu campaign cares about them and they just want to play petty politics. Abby's violations were brand new rules and were not "huge."
•To the girl who used to be an OL and currently works in the library: you can shelve my books anyday, as long as you wear those glasses of yours.
•You probably wouldn't date me because I don't adhere to your religious standards. #sorrynotsorry
•"I’m anxious all the time, I feel way too nervous to be alone and I’m really afraid of seeing you around campus." I have a pretty similar situation, minus the crying and with more harassment. Started filling out transfer applications last month.
•@"never knew that finally having a boyfriend would mean less sex…" It doesn't, my boyfriend and I have sex pretty much once a day.
•-SIGH- Every time I try to loose weight/get in shape or save money... Chinese food ruins everything. Damn you, greasy, tasty, food.
•TDR and Tavern, I am begging you to please provide healthier food options. The available food has royally fudged up my bowel system.
Rant here!
