there are guys in my dorm who decided to play cards in the elevator
see what intrigues me about college isn’t the intellectual pursuit or the bonding or whatever, its the fact that people have the freedom to do random shit like this
Okay, everybody, I have a story about random shit in college. When I was in college, there was a particular class I took where, no matter what time you walked into class, if you made it into the room before the professor, you wouldn’t be counted late. I mean, that’s a pretty cool policy, given how some professors are really obnoxious about attendance.
Well, one time, a fellow student of mine was running late to class. As she reached the edge of the building, she saw her professor making it to the front steps (super long rectangular building here). He looks up from walking and he sees her. He then points to his watch, gives her a well-meaning “Look who’s late” face, and walks on inside.
What he didn’t know, though, was that this particular student was like freakishly good at bouldering and related climbing skills, so she was just like “Fuck it” and SCALED THE BUILDING!
She tapped on the window of the 4th floor classroom (the floors had like 20ft ceilings, so, she was quite a ways up there), nearly making one student piss himself. They opened the window, she rolled through, onto the floor, and slid into her seat about five seconds before the professor opened the door to the classroom.
He did a double take, started to say “How the hell d—” when a security guard ran in, red-faced and panting, pointed at her and bellowed “STOP DOING THAT!”
omfg the amount of fucks college kids don’t give astounds me
IVE ONLY SEEN THIS POST IN SCREENSHOTS
I LOVE THE IMPLICATION THAT THIS STUDENT HAS A REPUTATION FOR SCALING THE BUILDINGS
they’ve got bake off of netflix so i’ve been watching that and i’m kinda thinking
has anything actually, in human history, been deemed unsalvageable as a concept entirely, bc there were too many words for obscure and hyper-specific shit within its broader framework?
are there forums where red-faced bakers are screaming at people to stop talking about croquembouches bc all these silly types of pasty are gonna make normal people think all pastry is fake? does that happen? would anyone be taken seriously if they tried to sincerely argue it with a fireball of righteous fury up their arse?
idk it’s kind of absurd to live in a world where there’s a unique word for every specific type of cake you could ever make, including ones nobody makes any more, ones people only made bc there was a war on and they didn’t have proper cake stuff, and ones that even cake experts agree are too fancy to even bother with unless you’re showing off, but if you wanna say your committed intimate relationship isn’t romance screeching fireballs burst out the woodwork all “THAT’S JUST FRIENDSHIP GO OUTSIDE I’M PISSING YOU CAN’T JUST HAVE WORDS FOR THINGS”
Also like… people shitting all over aspec microidentities just love to ignore that other identities have microlabels too. When’s the last time you heard someone in the community mocking the concept of Femme or Butch, or Bear or Twink?
And with respect to what you were talking about, when’s the last time someone struggled to comprehend the idea of friends with benefits? Did people try to tell them that “it’s totally normal for friends to fuck each other if they want to. There’s nothing wrong with that” or do they try to say “that’s just how dating works, stop trying to be special!!” Because that’s how they sound when they mock QPPs.
No, they didn’t. Because it’s not that fucking hard to understand. But when it comes to aspec stuff, they’re all “Bluh bluh, suddenly I can’t read more than 4 words!!!”
