My first college experience was so heterogenous. Everybody was a varsity athlete, 4.0 student, 1300+ SATs, student government blah blah blah. Alpha party + military brainwashing = bro broth.
Now, there are so many types of people. On Fridays I have an hour between classes. I sit in the student lounge that looks over the commons. Between classes all these kids are walking by. Blows my mind. A fat kid just rolled by on a 3 wheel sit down razor scooter. All the kids have penny boards and those little Segway mini-boards to get to and from class, and they dress in all sorts of styles. I love it. I try to get work done, but I am people watching and forum surfing instead...
You guys are a bad influence. 
I actually love the variety. The very word "University" means to "to find unity in diversity". It's really a cross-cultural, species ingrained search. To find Unity in Diversity. On our coins, "E Pluribus Unum" meaning, "out of many, one". In our language, the "quintessence". Science looking for the "unifying theory". I find it fascinating.
We are not made happy by what we acquire but by what we appreciate.

"What kind of bullshit do they say about a cov…coviolent bond in this school?"
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

Throwing dog food across the floor to get the dog to eat.

Just finished dinner (leftover fried rice), all the animals are fed, watching Angels & Demons (which I can't take seriously because of Ewan McGregor), and contemplating whether the dog is going to keep me up barking tonight, or whether the cats will wake me up (and keep me up) at 3am.

I can't sleep. The forum is pretty dead. So fucking bored.

Just had an ex-girlfriend call me.
She gets drunk and horny, rings me, tells me what she'd like to do, then gets all guilty (she's married), tells me it could never be and practically hangs up on me.
I barely get a word in.
This happens once a year and has been going on for five years.
I might not answer it next year, I think. :-)

Might as well answer. It's at least an ego boost. This girl just can't quit you. That's how irresistible you are.
