Eagle Rants: November 17, 2012

• Feeling really depressed/stressed out tonight, even though I don't have any reason to. Bummer. I'm going to go to bed.

• "for all you lonely boys ~ I will be president" ;)

• @I got soul but I’m not a soldier: I was actually listening to that song as I was reading your rant. When I read it, a huge smile came across my face, so thanks for making my day brighter, 'cuz I got a crap load of papers to do this weekend.

• @If you're unhappy with your bf, do something about it: Why would you assume I havent done anything about it? All I do is try to do things about it. Stop criticizing other people's feelings. If you don't have positive advice, then don't reply to a ranter who is hurting.

• Wow, apparently lots of ranters like S&M. It all makes sense now..

• @"from a chemistry standpoint, you sound incredibly hot": aww, I'm flattered. certainly didn't expect a response like that. No, I don't have contact with children in my daily life. Although I do think often about how I would like to get married and pregnant after I finish school, so those images are not far from my mind. What exactly do you mean by "from a chemistry standpoint"? Like you are attracted to my oxytocin? Well, I find your nerdiness very attractive ;)

• Sorry I threw up on you.

• @work to keep him: Thanks for the response. He's not an a**hole. We're in an LDR and due to the complicated situation, the work of maintaining the spark is falling on me. He's great when we're together but he sucks at being long distance. But in a few months we can be together again and it will all be fine. I just have to convince him that I am worth hanging in there until then. It's not me, it's the distance.

• So I was out with a friend from GW, a friend from high school who goes to state school, and a friend from Georgetown. The girl from Georgetown called AU students Geoegetown rejects. She did this in front of me, GW friend, and state school friend. Wow, just wow. Low class status climber much? People who have to put other people down in order to bring themselves up have real self-esteem issues.

• Thanks to everyone who responded to my bj tips question. I think my bf had a good bday ;)

• "@ the guy who wants to whore himself out : I’m down ;)" - Sweet! Just leave the money on the table ;)

• @" I got soul but I’m not a soldier" - I'm so much older than I can take.

• Get over yourself, profane word "female dog". There are more important problems to be dealt with.

• I just pet Jack the Bulldog- does that make me a traitor to AU??

• I swear my professor is sleeping with this student in my class. There's some freaky vibe thing going on between them

• I don't understand. You're thinking about giving you LDR boyfriend another chance, but you won't even consider me as an alternative? He's in California. I'm here. He can't cuddle with you or hold your hand. I can. Now I'm alone again.

• I'm sorry for being awkward. You seem nice but I'm not much of a conversationalist.

• If anyone's keeping up, I asked him to meet up sometime and get to know each other. Against all odds, he said yes. Let's hope I don't screw this up royally, sweet Eagle Ranters!

• @it's not my place/he will expect that every time: OP here. Thank you for your support. But why shouldn't he expect sex every time he visits me? I sure would if I were traveling to visit my gf and only get to see her once a month. And why shouldn't he expect me to dress sexy and cook nice things for him when he takes time out to visit me? I consider myself a feminist, but I don't think these things are unreasonable. After all, look at everything he is giving up to be with me (ie sex only once a month)

• @Hwk, I think I like you: if this is meant for me, I like you too :-) need more info though

• I hate how people acknowledge the fraternity that basically sexually harassed me last year as "top tier". Seriously? Those a**holes are who you guys think are cool?

• @"I try so hard to impress you, but no matter what. . .": If this is meant for me, I'm sorry! You're not dumb at all, you're really smart :-)

• @if you are bored at AU: I did all that for a time, but to be honest I got bored of it after a while. Everyone is at their own place. What kept you interested in kindergarden doesn't keep you interested now, does it? Everyone keeps growing and is at different stages.

• @Eaglesecure is an oxymoron: HAHAHAHA! I literally lol'd. The internet here sucks!

• @being asked if you voted for Obama: I know right!?! And they talk about being soo politically correct...psht! My ass! I mean I voted for him too, but it's just plan bad form and hypocritical as hell to preach about one thing and then not do it

• @Barely know this fellow, but I think he's cute, pretty nice. . .- Talk to him! You'll regret it if you don't, just talk to him :-)

• Wow, I am seriously astonished by the self-control this girl just displayed. I walked by her SEVERAL TIMES and not once did she even try to grope me or anything...

• @all white people look alike: lol yeah...just yeah

• Congratulations! I heard you were just nominated for the "gayest kid alive" award! The runner-up is also supposed to be very gay, but I think you should win by a landslide!

• God being around you just makes me shake and you don't even care.

• @Eaglesecure is an oxymoron: HAHAHAHA! I literally lol'd. The internet here sucks!

• @come with me one weekend: I will. and then I'll take you out for a walk in the mall and we'll converse, where I won't try to impress you with my stories, but simply make you smile.

• Eagle Rants better keep running over Thanksgiving Break. Or I don't know what I'm going to do. Honestly. There'll be hell to pay if they're not up.

• My roommates are soo f**king loud and disrespectful! Do they not understand that it's 4am, and having friends over is just plain rude. C'mon I go to bed early and the fact they didn't even ask to have friends over is really getting me pissed.

• Editor, you have been on my good side all week for posting rants early. Keep it up. ;)

• Catty girls never cease to amaze me.

• @"dream website" what's the name of it? I have really intense dreams and would definitely like to explore their meaning. Thanks!

• CHAMBER SINGERS THROWS THE BEST PARTIES AT THIS MOTHERF*UCKING SCHOOL!!!!

• And if she asks you why you can tell her that I told you that I'm tired of castles in the air

• I'm so horny I think I'm going to explode. But I don't like parties or bars, so it's awkward to meet guys in classes or organized activities because I don't want to seem unprofessional in an academic setting. But I'm looking for romance. I'm a history major. skinny. 34 DD. My hobbies include swimming, yoga, discussing politics, and sarcasm. I'm interested in a geeky, sweet guy who wants to go to historical sites on weekends with me. And have lots of sex. Any takers?

• Why do you play games with people? Is it because you think life screwed you over so now you have to screw everyone else over? It's immature. It's mean. And it makes me think twice about loving you so much.

• I find myself wanting to marry you and take you home. Wo-oh-oh-oh Darling you send me. Darling you do. Daring you do. Darling you do.

• I don't really understand the point of college radio. We have internet now. Why hasn't the radio kept up with the times and become the college podcast/video web series. Really not getting the whole radio thing. Does anyone listen to the radio these days besides people over age 90? I don't know anyone who owns a radio.

• Having you spend the night makes me feel less lonely.

• I absolutely HATE waiting for people. How many times have I been late to things that I HAD SET UP because of you? Jesus, either stop taking your sweet time or stop expecting me to invite you to things.

• Well-dressed Indian guy from Anderson 6S: I saw you in the hall way and I saw you check me out; just say hi because I'd love to give you my number ;)

• While I would much rather find a nice boy at AU to go out with, I'm also thinking of trying to meet guys from other DC area schools too. Anyone know of any popular events at the other schools that it wouldn't be weird to show up at as an AU student?

• I don't want to be one of those people who angsts about girls on EagleRants, but at the same time I met a very interesting girl who I'm afraid I won't ever get to talk to again because she's not in any of my classes/clubs. :(

• So I started reading all of these ROTC guy rants and wanted to see what the big deal was. So I went early to breakfast the other day and now I see where all the straight good looking guys at AU are. There's still hope after all!!!! You guys really need to get out there more. I can name so many girls that would get on board.......including me.....

• @I find the gays immoral. They made their choice.-- I bask in my immorality

• @Mental disorder person. I think this is in response to my rant, but I think you misread it (thats okay though). I don't care for your awful "free" food (fatty) and 10 guest speakers a day? Wow you must be so interesting (or have no friends). Thanks for the advice though dearest, but you're proving my point, I'm bored because people are stupid not because I ran out of things to buy online or porn to watch. Nice try fatty now hurry off to experience AU with all those guest speakers.

• @LDR Girl: No problem, happy to help the good ones like you. Good luck and I'll be looking for an update to see how it went!

• @Biological model girl. Girls cheat too. It's a nice thought to think about but any guy that has it working between his legs would sleep ideally with a ton of girls. Monogamy is a social constraint not a biological imperative. If you go strictly by morphology penises are shaped such to remove semen from a women's previous partners (from earlier in the day) and to implant our own as deeply and quickly as possible. Guys aren't manipulative jerks, we're animals and so are you.

• I think I have a personality disorder

• last time I was on the shuttle some random woman came on asking for directions and the shuttle driver spent about 15 minutes stopped next to Tenley campus giving her directions. come on now.

• "How long does a heart stay broken? How long if the pain's unspoken? No solace in a kiss, No comfort in the sigh, No good about goodbye."

• @"You put me in a hellish purgatory..." Then figure that out. Only way you're gonna know is to ask. I he/she reacts positively, awesome. If he/she says no, initially it'll feel like the emotional equivalent of quitting heroin cold turkey, but hey, at least you'll know and eventually be free. If he/she is already taken then I don't know what to say...
