I love this. My friends and I are acquainted with the bro-y-ist dude bro of all time who happens to actually be named Chad. We call him "the Chad," and I would like to think he exemplifies bro-dom. How fitting!
I am a senior in college, and things like this really make me role my eyes. People who bring coffee makers and sleeping bags into the Library during finals week are really just trying to put on a show. "Woah is me! I have so much more homework than you do!" These are the types of people who will spend the next 7 days posting pictures of them making ramen in a hot pot and half-hourly status updates on Facebook instead of actually studying. I SERRIOUSLY doubt that you are *so* busy and have *so* much work to do that you can't walk a block to the SUB for a fucking sandwich. Sitting a a table with seven of your friends as you whine about how many papers you have to write is NOT studying.
Steve Jobs' biological father was a professor at my school in the 1970's and caused a massive scandal before dissappearing. Our paper did a really interesting story about it a few weeks ago:
I don't think they are spending "all" of their time doing this. What is so wrong about getting together with friends to drink and talk about literature and philosophy? Seems like a pretty ideal way to spend your free time, in my opinion.
I don't really understand why you think being from Washington entitles you to be a "horrible bitch" about Idaho. I was born in Seattle and currently live there, but I grew up in Boise and my parents still live there. Politically, Idaho had some issues, but it is a fucking awesome and beautiful place to live. I miss it everyday.
I like you! I spent many a times in Sun Valley/Ketchum growing up, and your post and references are making me so homesick and nostalgic! Bruce Willis, Demi and Ashton were such a fixture of the area and I was sad to hear the property was up for sale. End of an era!
Have you ever been to Sun Valley? It is literally one of the most beautiful places in the country. Not to mention extremely affluent with five star restaurants and high end shopping. You can't even go there in the winter months without spotting one or two celebrities.
I totally agree. I want to be critical of the OBESITY EPIDEMIC panic that is going on right now in our country but I kind of agree with it. I am only 22, and when I think back to my elementary school days (in an admittedly rich neighborhood in suburban Denver, so maybe this is atypical..) out of about 600 students, no more than 5 would have been considered "obese." It worries me how fast this seems to be happening.
There was this one episode of WWHL with Amy Sedaris and Tom Colicchio that is probably my favorite 24 minutes in the history of television. It devolved into Amy putting on a "Ramona Singer's Eyes" blindfold and trying to guess what kind of weird food Tom was feeding her. I don't know how it didn't win an Emmy.
I tracked down my password to log in to this account for the first time since the password hacking scandal, because I needed you to know how much you just made my day with this comment.
Sounds like my high school. We had a "best facial hair" category for guys and girls and two separate categories for "Most likely to star in a reality show" and "Most likely to star in a VH1 reality show."
I don't live in Boise anymore but I still consider it and Idaho my home. I honestly don't think there is a more beautiful city in the country. It always make me so sad when Gawker does an article about how hicky Idaho is and everyone just makes these outrageous generalizations about the state.
