Eagle Rants March 29, 2012

•The mashed potatoes were sooooo good at TDR tonight. Can they please always be like that? :)

•Why have I been craving TDR chicken so badly lately...

•I DEFINITELY watched the Legend of Korra episodes TWICE. SPAZZSPAZZ

•if the things that stress you out/overwhelm you are things/people you love just remind yourself how lucky you are to have those things anyways. the fact that you have a challenge in your life is an added bonus. let complacency be your biggest fear.

•"You throw like a girl"...where I'm from, that's a compliment.

•Really AU Dems, REALLY?!

•HAHAHAHA CHARLES MERRICK CAME IN FOURTH PLACE

•anyone else have a strong desire to make their poop glittery?

•I love Charles Merrick no matter what.

•Why were all the Eagle Rants from March 27 published as a single stream of consciousness? [Editor's note: Because they were originally posted under "Opinion" and this editor had to fix them and added an extra paragraph tag by accident.]

•@Yu filed stupid violations - really? What do you call filing charges for someone knocking over a poster in MGC? Give me a break.

•I'm in love with you but you worked for the other campaign...

•Legit in love with Tim McBride rn after his video declaring war on GW. And he ended with a West Wing reference? I'll be in my bunk.

•Never told anyone I used to SI. Should I tell my bf?

•@girl considering transferring due to being harassed by someone: Don't leave a wonderful school due to the actions of some douchbag. Have you tried talking to the counseling center or public safety to have the situation taken care of so that person doesn't bother you anymore?

•Why do you act like an immature middle schooler? Talking behind people's backs stopped being cool in 6th grade. Grow up.

•Thanks to you and your annoying friends I can no longer stand my room anymore. Only one more month left living with you, hallelujah.

•Similar situation with harassment: I am so sorry that you have to deal with this too. It's so unfair. We have a right to feel safe and comfortable on campus, and we just don't.

•I'm a hot,feminine, straight female and i have finally found a decent f*** buddy that can get the job done and understand the "no strings" rule. THANK YOU f*** buddy God

•Got into all the schools I applied to for a transfer. Bye loserrssss. :)

•Hold up--not wanting to have sex doesn't mean you're a prude. It just means that you don't want to have sex. Not having sex doesn't mean you don't have a life; it only means that you're not having sex. What's with the abstinence hate? Not everyone wants sex or even gets pleasure from it, so they abstain. It doesn't make them less of a person.

•Hipsters... EVERY!@#!@#WHERE!

•"sassy in a funny way" girl, Don't hover outside your door and squak at people using the laundry room. I may not live on your floor, but I pay for it same as you do.

•In the article about elections: "Jones, who received only 30 less votes than Yu..." Okay, I get that typos happen and grammar Nazis are annoying, but it's thirty fewer, not thirty less. I'm shocked by the lack of proofreading in the Eagle. This is an important story. [Editor's note: The article was edited by three different editors, but sometimes things still slip through. This editor is human. And you're probably human. Humans make mistakes. Practice empathy.]

•@"Ma belle... " I think you're talking about me. If so, I meet friends in MGC before going to TDR at 1:30 on Mondays and Thursdays, and at 2:30 on Tuesdays and Fridays if you wanna see me. :)

•I'm so stressed By my stress I just wanna up and vomit -you got that right, Logainne SchwartzandGrubenierre.

•OF COURSE I KNOW YOU LIKE ME. Now if you just admit it out loud we can skip the awkward part of the relationship, and move on to the fun part ;P

•i just want to run my hands through you curly egyptian hair. you know who you are ;D

•Well, there goes SG!

•There's too much phi mu up in the administration. #OCCUPYSEAWORLD

•Funny how everyone was standing up for the Finn campaign because the Yu campaign brought charges against her. Well if she didn't want to get the charges against her then she shouldn't have broken the rules. But I think we can all agree, LONG LIVE THE KING!

•Dear fellow virgins, Don't let people who might call us "obnoxiously prude and ridiculous" get you down. Being a virgin doesn't automatically make you a prude. I don't hate on sex and I love talking about it, but I haven't met a right guy yet. The good ones will understand why you waited.

•Check out the Iowa eagle cam. The eggs should hatch in the next week! #eaglepride [Editor's note: Huh?]

•It is the most upsetting that a senate seat is getting taken away from CAS. We aren't SIS or SPA where all of the majors fall under the same umbrella! The needs of a Lit major, a Bio major, and a Theatre major are all VASTLY different, and another general student body seat isn't going to reflect those differences successfully. Yay for being the school that consistently gets sh*t on!

•I'll say it one more time... Leggings are not pants. Ladies. You can do better! Jeggings are a great alternative!!

•@"you’re ‘waiting’ just makes you obnoxiously prude and ridiculous". Uh...I totally disagree. There are plenty of girls out there who are looking for a guy that has morals and is willing to wait for them. It's very romantic and mature. Also, did you mean "your" waiting?

•IM YELLING SO I DEMAND THAT MY OPINION BE HEARD!!

•A portkey can be a seemingly harmless object....like, a football. Or....a dolphin.

•I swear when I grow up, I won't just buy you a rose. I will buy the flower shop and you will never be lonely.

•The new Today@AU is the worst. It is so repetitive I stop reading after the very beginning. What was wrong with the old one?? I thought it was fine

•To the phi mu who competed on Wednesday, you should have won.

•To the individual who wrote about my friend the library employee and former OL- her biggest pet peeve is tacky and slightly creepy anonymous sexual innuendos. Just thought you should know...

•Yes to healthier food! Even at TDR, the healthy things (such as the locally grown vegetables, tofu, etc.) are covered in oil and sauces most of the time! Some oil is good in moderation but doused in that and salt? This is what keeps me at the salad bar every day :(

•I wish Abby would have won, but she spent the entire campaign acting like she was entitled to the position. There's a lesson about SG hierarchy for you. Good luck Emily!

•@ flu: Please feel better! I get looks here often because I'm not always put together, feeling well or not. But it's okay because I'm happy and I love myself. You should too!

•So I left my long term long distance boyfriend for a guy here, and the guy here is a total dick. It just made me realize how much I actually do love my (ex) boyfriend. Moral of the story: You never know what you've got til it's gone. Sometimes proximity can't make up for real love.

•@Not enough classes in CAS: Thank youuu! How am I supposed to fulfill my major requirements when you're only offering classes I've already taken or can't take yet because I need the classes you're not offerring?!

•Who is John Galt?

•Someone ranted about starting a Delta Delta Delta chapter here a while ago. You should do it!

•You might be a liberal...if you can name the DNC leader and not your ANC rep. [Editor's note: You might work for The Eagle ... if you can name the ANC rep and not the DNC leader.]

•I saw you again with your fitted cap in the basement of the library!!! I'm talking about you girl ;) Your hotness overwhelms me!!!

Rant here!



Section 202 host Gabrielle and friends go over some sports that aren’t in the sports media spotlight often, and review some sports based on their difficulty to play.
