Eagle Rants: November 30, 2012

• Really? You still just want to be friends? You sure the feeling isn't mutual? I thought I was over you, but I guess I'm not. I've been asked by multiple people if we are together, because guess what, our relationship is too affectionate to be just friends! C'mon, girl! I'm going crazy over here!

• DID SOMEBODY SAY HOMESTUCK??!!

• So many rants from single lesbians! I'm a single lesbian looking for some love, too!

• To the guy looking for a girlfriend to have sex with every day. I'm down! I was the same way in high school and I miss it!!! When and where do you want to meet up??

• You're a guy and you're pro life? You're an effing idiot.

• To the @please stop teasing me response..... I'm a very thirsty girl. Just get on my bed.

• I am so completely BEYOND thirsty. Someone quench my thirst, please.

• @As a girl, I really want to know- how much do guys really think about sex? A lot. More than you.

• I have been tearing up a lot lately at basic acts of human kindness. I think that shows how little is ever extended to me.

• @The awkward moment when 80% of Christians United for Israel’s event: I'm a full supporter of Gaza and the Palestinian people but what you guys did was just flat out disrespectful. You are guys are not going to go anywhere with your movement by being rude. I came to that speech with an open mind, and respectfully listened to what the Israeli soldier had to say, and even though I still disagree with the Israelis, at least I was respectful.

• I might kill myself soon.

• I wish this school would go back to being called THE American University, pre-1995. Am I the only one here who feels this way??

• Any other Poets of the Fall fans out there?

• @Girl you're like a caffeine -- what do you think of Yoseob's solo debut? :D I liked the song (and lold at the 'girl you're like a caffeine') but was expecting something a little more... awesome, perhaps.

• @ "That awkward moment when you hear gay sex for the first time. . . #Inevitable@AU" Wait, what? So it is inevitable that I will have gay sex? Is that like having sex on accident?

• @ "• So. Much. Sexual. Tension. Can we just make out already girl?! • Why weren’t you in class today? I wanted to ask you out girl!" You people are the reason why Eagle Rants sounds like a $hitty parody of 90's pop music.

• @"Death is hard to deal with. However, we all must stay focused and carry on. I know this will affect me for the rest of my days but I have to move on." Death has this much to be said for it: You don't have to get out of bed for it. Wherever you happen to be, They bring it to you—free. - Kingsley Amis

• @Every living creature dies alone. Not true. Some people die in plane crashes.

• I wish I could type an essay in my sleep. How great would that be?

• We made intense eye contact when you were walking through marketplace the other day, and i think you are perfectly adorable. I just dont know what to do about it

• @awful vagina smell: smells vary widely depending on what point in her cycle she is on (both on and off or birth control). I find that I smell best about 10 to 15 days after my period ends. Timing is everything my friend. Good luck!

• Vagina smells change throughout the month. Right before my period my vagina smells like dead fish. Right aftermy period it smells like glue. And during ovulation it smells like vanilla cupcake. The rest of te time it smells and tastes like boogers.

• I don't want to go to any more of your frat's parties, but I feel like I keep going because it's the only way we could possibly hook up again. Argh.

• The Drunk Uncle rants always make me giggle. :)

• @SPA is totally the gryffindor of AU: Wrong, here are the proper assignments: CAS- Ravenclaw (it encompasses the most academic fields, and is the most intellectual of the schools) SIS- Gryffindor (they all have some sort of misguided messiah complex) SPA- Slytherine (the most politicians will come out of this school, and we all know tha politicians are slimy) SOC- Hufflepuff (no one is really sure that it exists/doesn't know what they do...I hear they're good finders though) Kogod- The Goblins (they will have the most money and will control our world economy)

• I feel like there's this unspoken bond between everyone in the library in the early hours of the morning. It's like after something terrible happens to a community. We all know what we're going through. Half the time I'm looking around, silently whispering, "It's okay, man. It's gonna be okay."

• anyone up for a flash mob? :o

• i may have developed something for gingers...let the indecisiveness begin.

• it's my birthday aaaaannnndddd I still have not slept! wooohooo! forever alone on the silent floor

• To the group of four who were talking about their bowl movements and awkward bathroom moments in TDR...keep in mind other people can hear you and would not like to have the description nor the sound effects of your bathroom issues while they are EATING their lunch.

• Editor, I get you have not slept and all and it is super hectic time, but some of us need our eagle rants. Get your stuff together. A deadline is a deadline. When you set up a meeting with prospective investors and you "think you printed out the agenda" but actually didn't...you can kiss your job good bye. Stop making excuses and screwing up. And next time, please post the dates you missed separately. They are two separate dates so therefore there should be two separate eagle rants. - Sincerely, Graduate Students

• yo library buddy. talk to me more often. you'd be surprised at what you find ;)

• thinking of creating my own major...would AU allow "sarcasm" as a major?

• I hate drunk people who act like they aren't drunk, and tell you that "oh, we need to get drunk together"

• listening to "Love the Way You Lie" and the part of "just gonna stand there and watch me burn" comes on and the creep on my floor stands behind me and says, "Why yes I am. Let me go get my lighter." Smiles and proceeds to leave. I am forever afraid of this kid now. help.

• thinking of lofting my bed next semester. any thoughts?

• omg im seeing things move #toomanyallnighters

• I don't understand how people can be attracted to people solely based on their political beliefs. I just makes no sense.

• I never really realized how privileged I am until now.

• If you want a poster of the CD cover art, find the image in a super high resolution (it has to be somewhere online) and you can go to a place like UPS/Kinkos that does printing and it'll be perfect.

• False. SIS is the Gryffindor of AU; annoying, think they are the best and think they are going to go save the world. Kogod is Slytherin: (Yes I am a Kogod kid) We think we're awesome, but really we are just giant evil corporate tools. CAS is Ravenclaw: they have the weird smart kids (Science & Math). SPA is Hufflepuff: no one cares about you. COMM is irrelevant.

• Dear, "Okay so I’ve come to accept the mediocre looks of the female student body here at AU...." I suggest moving in with your mother. She would probably satisfy your needs.

• I feel creepy as hell, but I ship Cockles like crazy. At least all the fics I read for them are AU, right? That's something. Ah-hem.

• Watching the red panda frightened by zoo keeper video on the second floor of the library #bad idea #cantstoplaughing

• Someone mentioned seppuku in a rant! You made my day! My motto for life: when in doubt, commit seppuku

• As a Southerner, I'd like to point out that it's y'all not ya'll. Even autocorrect agrees with me. Just saying.

• Sea otters hold hands when they sleep so they don't drift apart

• What is a loosey? Aww hell, that's a loose cigarette you buy on the street from a A-rab

• people need to not cut at Tavern, it should not take me half an hour to get a grilled cheese because you are jerks

• Self-important hipster has nothing better to do than judge/shame girls who wear Uggs... Derp. I own Uggs, and wear them proudly. I don't give a f*ck whether they're cute. When it's cold but not snowing, they are the logical footwear choice.

• @“I would not say such things if I were you!”-Princess Bride-- all the way ^^ Though Prince Humperdink is a douche.

• There's this type of food that people in the library like to eat, but when they finish eating they dump the box in the trash and it creates this putrid, rotting smell that could kill a small animal. PEOPLE PLEASE THROW YOUR DAMN FOOD IN THE TRASH CANS OUTSIDE

• It's like arson. You make a thing illegal; it begins to develop a mystique. I mean, how many of us can honestly say that at one time or another he hasn't set fire to some public building? I know I have!
