February 16-17, 2013

• Oh my, three responses in Russian-to the Google Translate! (I actually don't speak Russian, so if the responders are picturing someone they know who speaks Russian, I'm sorry to disappoint. ??? ????? ??? ???????) But if you do like someone, consider telling them (in English, if you're unsure of whether they speak Russian—that's usually the safest bet)! After Valentine's Day, most people would probably appreciate it. ????? ???? ????? ? ???????!

• (Also, that's why the working was probably awkward-Google translate has been known to butcher the finer points of languages-but the spirit of the message got across, I'm assuming?)

• The Eagle would totally be better as an online-only paper

• Anyone else notice that in 2011-12, KPU had ten events with amazing speakers that came to campus? And this year, KPU has only had three so far? How is SG spending our money again?

• I thought I was over you then I saw you on the Quad after the Harlem Shake and my heart dropped. I wish I was ready to turn the page on us

• "hire a live big/brass/swing band instead of getting a crappy DJ, thus turning Founders’ Day Ball into a 20’s themed party." omg. that would be absolutely lovely.

• @"I want a safe space to offend people, where we can all let out the hate we really feel towards each other (this university is burning with suppressed political tensions)." Yes. Let the hate flow through you! (But actually, you should start this)

• Here I am in line at the grocery store, when my cousin comes up behind me and pays for the entire thing before I get a chance. $65 worth of food. "I know what it was like to be a struggling college student." Wow, the kindness of some people just floors me. This is why I like to hang out with them.

• @"To the man who attempted to masturbate onto my assault pack the other day in Asbury:" Asbury phonetically sounds like "Ass Berry." DO THE HARLEM SHAKE. DA DA DA DA DA CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP. AZEALIA BANKS REMIX YEAAAAAAAAAAHHHH.

• To the blond girl who got on the shuttle by the metro but then got off again before it left at about 4pm today: The guy you were with is a d*ck, you are beautiful, and you could do much better.

• ????? ???? ??/??? ?????/? ?????????? ????? ????? ????? ???? ???/?? ??????????? ??? ??????????? > ...

• OMFG QUIT BANGING ON THE WALL ALL THE TIME WTF IS GOING ON THAT MAKES YOU DO IT YOU JUST HIT IT SO HARD THINGS FELL OFF MY DESK.

• Considering using OKC for shits and giggles + I want to see if the horror stories (as well as success stories) are true. Now that I've been broken up for a month, I think I can do it guilt free!

• @ "I know you’re really into indie music that no one else knows about, and you want to assert your indie supremacy over us all, but do you really have to sing loudly in the shower?" Do you live on my floor? Because I swear, this describes TO A T a girl on my floor. And I second that, it's annoying as hell.

• Update on OKC: I made an account and have since deleted it. I've now learned that I don't like knowing people are checking me out.

• Why do people keep hating on the Dav...? Do you go there everyday? Do they play good music? Do they make the best and cheapest coffee? Then shut up, or stop going there.

• I am the hugbox and "end activism" ranter. I have successfully trolled the leftists by becoming a caricature of basically all of Rants combined. TROLOLOLOLOL.

• @I want a safe space to offend people, where we can all let out the hate we really feel towards each other (this university is burning with suppressed political tensions). I support you; but the idea would be 'unfathomed' and probably punishable by AU for even thinking such thoughts.

• @Founders Day posts: AGREED! One step further- spend even less on all those things, and let's put more money into effective programming on the quad, or just require less in student fees (i mean, not all of us can go to the founders' day ball and experience what the university spends tens of thousands on!)

• To the girl proud of hooking up with a guy who's dating a DG -- I don't get it. So you hooked up with a douchy guy who cheated on his girlfriend. Why does her being in DG automatically make you super special? I don't understand why this is something you're proud of.

• It is annoying when professors hold final papers. Seems like it is a way for them to avoid discussion about the grade.

• Where have the delt bros been my whole life

• ITS FREE!! SWIPE YO EBT!!

• That awkward moment when your friend tries to set you up on a date. . . With your ex.

• @Only a ginger can call another ginger: FINALLY someone gets it!

• I think I'm in love with my ex's former best friend. We bonded over how we both realized what a crazy, psycho b---- she is.

• " The editor’s Treat Yo Self comment just made my day." I know right. That was a response to my rant. I laughed a lot. :)

• Nicholas - your id was found on the street... pick it up at public safety

• I am syriasly tired of all the killing going on in Syria it syriasly needs to stop like dude syriasly

• I spent 20 minutes watching ATV...biggest regret of my Friday night...

• @"What is the best spot in the library to have sex?" In the slowest moving elevators on campus #takeyotime

• @RA with a crush: ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT A PA? OR AN RA?

• new taylor swift song: I put eyeliner on my boyfriend

• Anyone else think the AU Harlem Shake video sucked? Why did they: 1) angle the camera to show that the quad was kinda empty, 2) have that sign on the stairs visible, and 3) and wtf was the girl in the front on her knees doing?... Best people was clawed, banana, chicken, naked guy on right, and naked guy on left twerking.

• I get excited whenever I get to use the compost organic waste bin

• Long live the proletarian glory of the Great Juche Idea of socialist victory! Long live Dear Leader and Songun!

• In trying to bring up another topic who wants to talk about the LAPD and the whole Chris Dorner situation. I only bring it up because in looking at it it does seem like the LAPD might be pretty shady and need someone to help clean up the town....to save it from corruption.....someone get batman!

• What the hell happened to common sense? Frat boys, stop being mysoginist scum. Feminists, stop threatening to mutilate someone's genitals over a tshirt.
