Eagle Rants

NO MORE LATE NIGHT CHANTS/SINGING IN THE QUAD PLEASE!

Seriously, what is UP with The Eagle? OMG. Like, what is with the design for the Eagle Rants section? "*@#!2*%!"? Where the hell does the "2" come in? Redesign, Eagle, and save us the headache, thanks. EDITOR'S NOTE: Noted. We have changed the "2" to a "3." If you would like to influence future changes to The Eagle's design, please submit an application to design@theeagleonline.com.

The Eagle today was appalling. Please write an article about an actual NEWS story.

Hey Eagle - way to be sexist, heterosexist and gross, all at once. "The girls love them, and the boys love what happens after they give them to the girls." Do you SERIOUSLY not see the problems with that statement? I'm actually impressed you managed to offend me on so many levels with so few words.

You've got to be a moron to think Obama can do anything positive for this country.

Smoking hookah doesn't look cool, nor smell even remotely cool. Just do it in private, you're not impressing anyone with your dope puffing skills.

There's a white guy that works in TDR now ... that is cool.

Where in the Bible does it say that a man can't fire off some knuckle-children in the privacy of his own neighbor's living room while his neighbor's at work because I don't have a DVD player? Well, I don't know where it says it because the Bible was way too long to read!

How can AU send the whole cheerleading squad to NCAA game but not any of the dance team?

$19 for the Patriot League champion shirts? No wonder AU doesn't have more school spirit. No one can afford it.

Whenever I eat alone at TDR, I think about sitting with some of the other "loners," but I've never worked up the courage to do it.

I wait for my roommate to leave, and then I secretly clean up her stuff. I'm not sure that she notices, though. She hasn't said anything about it yet.

I think that by the end of this year, I will personally buy Aramark a present on account of every embarrassing and immoral thing I've done that they've cleaned up.

This school wins a championship and goes to the tournament, but how can I show school spirit if the bookstore doesn't sell XL or XXL championship t-shirts!!! I'm tired of this school stickin' it to the "bigger man" - pun intended.

I wish my roommate did not worship Lil' Wayne. Even though Lil' Wayne is very popular, his lyrics are stupid and contain no substance. I fear for our future.

I'm going to see a bhangra DJ tomorrow because my friend wants to go. I don't think I can step inside unless I am wasted out of my mind and don't care how much better the Indian people can dance.

People at the gym need to stop looking at themselves so much in the mirrors.

Obama said there'd be change: I'm only drinking four nights this week.

I'm kinda glad Andalu stopped letting people in on Tuesday night. It made us go to a real bar. Thank you, Andalu.

Whole Foods needs more preservatives.

Term paper or "Rush Hour 2?" You be the judge.

Do we really need all of the "We're Dancing!" banners? They're EVERYWHERE! My count so far is six, including one on the Tenley campus. Spend money on things that are worthwhile, thanks.

I hate people who hate on The Eagle. You are all a bunch of mean headed jerks. You're probably ugly, and God will not save you.

Why don't fat men get hot chicks? It's total crap. I wish that my large ass could attract me some fine females. I like women just like every other guy. Besides, what ever happened to "there's more to love??" All the single ladies, put your hands up and on my big belly.

Wah wah wah! My life sucks! I hate everything!

North Face fleece and Uggs: original and fashionable or SUPER original and TOTALLY fashionable.

I watched President Obama on Leno last night. I thought it was very un-presidential. We don't need funny and charming from him. I can talk about March Madness with the guy at the newsstand. What's next, an appearance with Michelle and the girls on "Family Feud?"

The RAs on sixth floor Anderson are hot!

It's Friday night and I'm sitting here typing Eagle Rants rather than partying down in Georgetown. What the F?

What grinds my gears? Girls who sit and chat on the machines at the gym when I'm trying to work out!!

People yelling in the Anderson hallways at 2 a.m. ... you are NOT funny or cool. Shut up and leave us alone.

Oh man ... there were some beautiful girls in the AU in Motion dance show last week.

Attention all people wearing shorts/skirts/dresses/short sleeves: Despite the one 70 degree day Mother Nature decided to throw our way, the temperature is currently below 60. We know your bare legs/arms are cold. Hold out until the temperature is safely above 70 - it's only a few more weeks.

I am thrilled with the new french fry holders from McDonald's that stand up by themselves. No longer do I have to lean the fry packet on my soda cup, only to have it fall over and spill fries everywhere when I try to take a drink. Props to McDonald's.

I retract my compliment to McDonald's. My fry container spilled. Not cool.

The idiot sitting next to me will not shut up about his McDonald's french fry holder.

How to Screw up Your Weekend 1. Drink 2. Tell your slutty co-worker she looks cute 3. Drink until she looks amazing 4. Wake up the next morning and see that she's back to normal.
