•How do I access rants from more than a week ago? They aren't under "Archives" under "More". :( [Editor's note: That's a problem we're trying to work on. For now, try searching in the search bar. Rants are always filed by name, so search "Eagle Rants April ___."]
•I used to think TV families were fictionally nice and functional. Now that's I'm at AU, I realize there really are families like that. And most of you come from them. Why is my family so dysfunctional?
•We want rants! We want rants! We want rants!
•Yo, word is bond, AU needs to let me transfer printing dollars to dining dollars. For real, though!
•I think your html is messed up. [Editor's note: My b. Fixed now. Thanks for the notice!]
•@”I don’t understand why you would pay to go to one of the most expensive schools in the country if all you want to do is be a housewife.” Wow, umm maybe for the amazing professors, the prestige of the school, the fascinating city, all the free museums, the politically active campus, the intelligent and informative panels and speakers AU brings to campus every day, the abundance of clubs on campus that better the world, the nice people at AU, and the top notch EDUCATION. What an idiotic question.
•You may think you know me, but you have no idea.
•@lack of living skills: I actually live closer to georgetown. So, no I don't use metro or go to the grocery stores in tenleytown.
•Does anyone else plan out a 5 year plan of when they will post which facebook albums and what they will be titled?
•I had a dream that I had sex with my pastor.
•You honestly scare the crap out of me.
•@”I don’t understand why you would pay to go to one of the most expensive schools in the country if all you want to do is be a housewife.” Well I don’t get why you would go to one of the most expensive schools in the country if all you want to be is a government bureaucrat (or journalist or actor or business-person or communications associate or teacher, etc). Get my drift?
•But really, what I am I going to watch once Desperate Housewives is over in a month? Need something sexy but also deep.
•Stop snoring!
•Why am I getting fatter the more I work out? this isn't fair
•Being a stay at home mom “aka housewife” is just as important as every other profession that AU students end up going into. And everyone who got into and chose to attend AU is extremely deserving of the wonderful education AU has to offer. Do you not want housewives to be educated parents, educated global citizens, and educated human beings? I can’t believe you would imply that a housewife is unworthy of going to college at AU. As another female students who plans on being a housewife after college (or more likely after grad school), your statement disgusts me.
•Actually exploring space leads to other discoveries. neil degrasse tyson actually has a lot to say on the subject.
•@"I struggle with anxiety"- definitely see a counselor/doctor. They can help you with managing the problem and prescribe medicine for really bad days.
•I feel like the entire world will judge me for my choices in music
•Why do people assume housewives (liberal or conservative) make sandwiches all day? I will have a cook and not do any food preparation as a housewife. I will spend my days taking my children to museums, homeschooling them, traveling to historic locations, and emotionally supporting their extracurricular goals in every way I can. Please stop dissing a life of devoting oneself to one’s children by referring to it as “sandwich making”.
•Climate change is a more important issue than space exploration? Here's a tip: NASA isn't just about finding ET, its also about studying other worlds, which in turn tells us more about our world. Venus is an example of a runaway Greenhouse Effect. Wouldn't want that to happen here now would we? There are many many other reasons why NASA funding is very important. Listen to Neil deGrasse Tyson.
•@Bullying Club (which should really be Anti-Bullying Club as someone pointed out) - waited at Mudbox for 30 minutes, guess you either didn't come or couldn't find me. (I was in a red tank top with a striped cardigan.) Instead of trying to find each other again, go on like a little and we'll message each other there.
•I'm not a pervert. I'm just an artist.
•I have sex, but I don't care if you do or don't.
•Everybody stop hating on communications. I've worked harder in my comm classes than I have in any of the social science ones or gen eds that I took.
•Eagle Rants make me glad I'm dating someone out of state. So many nasty closet misogynists here.
•dear editor- please never post the rants as a giant block agan...my eyes hurt! [Editor's note: It was an accident. Just a missing html formatting change.]
•Listen up asswipe, I'm not gonna tell you again: STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM ME, my roommate, and anyone else with vaginas living on this floor!!!! You're NOT cute, you're NOT smart, and definitely NOT funny. Can you take a hint? Nobody's interested in you, so please do yourself a favor and stop stalking us. Stop coming by our rooms, our lounge and creeping at dinner time. Get on back to your own room where you belong. By yourself. Far away from girls.
•To those who keep hating on Communication majors- Stop. We work hard too, just at learning different skills than you. That doesn't make our classes any less legitimate than yours. Get off your high horse.
•Can you really blame a commuter student for not wanting to go to Tenleytown? They may only commute for class and thus only have time to use the resources on campus. Also: It's pretty difficult to get a DC library card if you live off campus and are not a DC resident. ALSO: Tenleytown isn't the only place with a grocery store.
•Apparently I have become a creeper magnet. EEP!
•People in the perch: Please stop taking up a whole table with one person and their shit. You do not need to spread out that much, and it's just not cool.
•I have a boyfriend at another school, and I'm falling for another guy here. Of wonking course.
•Alright, I can't take it. When you leave anywhere (i.e. your room, the mailbox area, the bathroom, the hall at night, etc.) without the intention to return any time soon and if no one is in this particular area at the time, TURN OFF THE LIGHT. We are supposed to be a green campus, are we not? Sure, these may be little things to some, but you are wasting energy. Please stop and learn just this tiny little detail because in the future it will probably save you hundreds and thousands of dollars on your bills. You're welcome.
•@"Vegas people are just plain weird"...yes, yes we are
•I'm so very tired. I will be constantly doing work until after finals. bleh
•Once it meant something, to me. I find it rather stunning. I draped it in cold and in clarity. It's true, I find the look becoming. Walk right through me, I'm not really there.
What could you see? What could you find? If we meet please avert your eyes. What I'll never show, what you'll never find Is explosive so hide your eyes.
•I can't do this whole project myself. You've gotta quit "forgetting" to do your part.
•I'm happy we've at least moved on from pretending that men and women are treated exactly the same in the courtroom and the marketplace to discussing differences. Baby steps towards understanding.
Rant here!
