I wasn’t going to let last weekend happen again and then it did, minus the kissing. Oh god what have I become. This is me drunk posting, what the hell.
about to make ramen.
MSG is the best thing/ that was supposed to be a period. oops.
2.
Jadestone | November 19, 2011 at 9:08 am
Oh Fiddler. At least the kissing didn’t happen? Anyway, sounds like you are enjoying college XD
3.
Fiddler | November 19, 2011 at 3:18 pm
Too much. I’m enjoying it too much.
Also, videos of klutzy, giggling me making and then eating ramen last night are hilarious. Taken by stoned friend, of course. Who then tried to steal said ramen every time I collapsed in giggling fits. Oh my life…. >.<

Fiddlah- No, drunk posting is good for you. Do it more. Or be a good person and turn off your computer before a night of drinking.
POSOC- If we’re lucky.
Also it is about damn time winter came. Only not because IRL scary, etc. Going blonde and red over Thanksgiving break yeaaaaaah.

Is it bad that I rarely use FMB except to post stuff that wouldn’t be allowed on regular MB?
Anyway, I’ve compiled several popular songs summarized in one sentence. I think they’re pretty accurate:
Without You: I have only ever had one girlfriend.
Lighters: We’re awesome, everyone else can go fuck themselves.
Moves Like Jagger: I’m highly confused about which side of this masochistic role play I’m on.
The One That Got Away: I am the most indecisive partner a man could ever ask for.
We Found Love: We found love in a hopeless place.
Sexy And I Know It: In attempting to make the worst song ever, I have somehow created a beat that causes many people to get the song stuck in their heads, and thus incessantly sing it at a certain high school that muselover goes to and…sorry, what was the question?
Fuck You: I often think of song titles before the songs themselves.
Pumped Up Kicks: I hate you.
9.
Fortune Cell | November 24, 2011 at 12:50 pm
Not really. I mean, the three things that really set FMB apart from MB are the size, average age of posters, and lack of censorship.
I don’t blame MB for taking a firm stance on what’s allowed, since the userbase is so young, and they want the members to be allowed to post and everything. Anyway, I guess what I’m saying is, if you’re posting on FMB then probably at least one of those three things is important to you.
I don’t really know any of those songs. I guess a perk of not going to high school dances anymore!
10.
Dodecahedron | November 24, 2011 at 8:21 pm
I unfortunately know all these songs, I am in college but there’s a radio in my hall bathroom that’s set to play popular music always…
“I often think of song titles before the songs themselves” made me laugh.

double post +_+
does anyone know anything about Sarah Lawrence College and/or know someone who goes there? i’m thinkning about doing a visiting semester there if i can (since i probably can’t do actual study abroad) but i can’t really visit beforehand so i’m trying to find out more etc. apparently it is not that hard to get into NYC from there but idk. i wish they had a summer program thing but ALAS…..
13.
oxlin | November 29, 2011 at 3:00 pm
Sarah Lawrence has awful food. My friend had no fun there when she went for a summer film program though some of that was the fact she was with high schoolers. If you’re okay with awful food, it might be better.
14.
axa | November 29, 2011 at 3:05 pm
aw! yeah i wish they had summer programs for college students, but alas.

we should leave an arbitrary command somewhere
like “everyone who lurks here put something about bunnies in their facebook status”
or “everyone who lurks here post on MB an innocent-looking post containing the word “ameliorate”
or something
19.
Mel | December 3, 2011 at 1:40 pm
That last one. On a specific thread. Ctrl+F. That would be useful.
Not that I spend my free time arbitrarily stalking people on the internet.
But I found a professor’s reddit account. Crowning achievement of creepiness.
But then I go worry about my internet trail. Because I leave a wide one.
I don’t see why they just don’t join in though. We are not scary. Maybe we should do a new intro thread or something. Idefk.
20.
POSOC | December 3, 2011 at 11:14 pm
I no longer lurk here (however intermittent my actual posts are), but now I wish I did so that I could do this and feel like I was part of some vast conspiracy.

penguini | December 4, 2011 at 7:43 am
Read this entire thing, thought it was a good idea, clicked away and then realized that I had to make a comment because lurking.

mel- I found a professor’s fb once. It wasn’t even intentional…

Site-specific live art performance, awwww yeahhhhh!
It went well.
We disrupted the peace, confused people, got laughs, and even managed to eat lunch in between it all.
Good times.
Now, to do this Completely Evil Anthropology Paper.
*death*
Guys, I really don’t want to study anthropology. Keep reminding me that, will you?

Roommate got me beer for Christmas.
I love us.
Also, did I mention we live right across from the RA on the substance-free floor?
29.
ebeth | December 8, 2011 at 7:58 am
it is good to know that substance-free just=not raving wild partiers at other schools too!
i always feel like OSU is full of alcoholics :-/ though the fact that i can take comfort in the fact that i’m better than other people because i don’t get trashed on school nights is probably indicative of something
still, yay beer

Fiddler | December 8, 2011 at 3:41 pm
She got me Guinness too, because she knows I like it. ♥
“So I didn’t know what kind you wanted. They had an extra strong something or other, but then I thought ‘could she handle that? Nahh, probably not.’”
Weekends at my school everyone is either drunk or high, and often both. :/ Saturday night is the best time ever to do laundry.

ebeth | December 24, 2011 at 12:39 pm
guinness is yums. if you like guinness, you should also try smithwick’s, it’s made by the same people and is pretty tasty. also sometimes cheaper
32.
Fortune Cell | December 24, 2011 at 3:47 pm
I get smithwicks sometimes if we’re out somewhere without a great selection. Invariably, these places always have waitresses who pronounce it “smith-wicks”. I cringe. In other beer-christmas related news, I couldn’t find the Innis & Gunn 2011 winter special for kristian’s stocking, and had to settle for their canada day special. Disappointment.

Also hello everyone! Now = finals disaster week, which of course = me remembering all of the places where I used to spend my time and going there and not studying. I like the thread title! And all of you! -hugtime-

Fiddler | December 23, 2011 at 8:42 am
I learned how to crochet two days ago and I’ve made two scarves, two pairs of mitts, and one hat so far. It’s an addiction.
43.
ebeth | December 24, 2011 at 12:37 pm
i need to learn crochet! i’ve been knitting like a crazy person lately, but all those patterns on the back of the yarn labels require crochet and they always look so comfy
i was knitting a blanket and ran out of yarn so i texted finch and was like “what do” and he was like “make a blanket for your feet!” so now i have a mini feet-blanket. it is actually super nice, why have i never thought of having a separate blanket for my feet? i hate socks, so my feet were always cold. but now they are warm!

Mel | January 4, 2012 at 4:35 am
So take only Sociology class that fits in my schedule. Because need one to graduate. About computers in society. He gave me a goddamn C+. Dude I AM the internet wearniaveroivaeorniaveraerva. Fuck everything about this. I put in all the efforts this semestre and my GPA went down. Also I’m finally using my own computer but I keep trying to type like it’s a German keyboard wharblgarbl.
Anyway it is time to tell the Tale of Oh God Germanychristmas is Weird and They Ate a Goddamn Bunny.
So yeah. Get to Frankfurt after the most awful flight ever. Aside from a double-watching of the last HP movie. Because HP is important only German voice actors can’t be Alan Rickman because he’s goddamn Alan Rickman. Rickmann? Whatevs.
Then HUGS AND KISSES and waiting for train which was crap. And then like there was a “technical delay” aka probably someone was an asshole and decided to become an hero on the tracks when all I wanted was a SHOWER. And we had to change trains and shit only it wasn’t all bad because it meant less changing inbetween. But uh yeah. Never go to northeast Baltic Germany the weather is CRAP.
But the food was good. Also the boy’s mother had the most adorable accent every time she said anything with umlauts I squee’d. Only the trouble with (ze twaaablll viss) it was apparently Austrian and German are compleatly different languages and then there was an Entirely New Language Barrier. Which just compounded the awkwardness. Or maybe I’m too self-conscious about my accent? It’s not my fault the “ch” and “r” sounds are impossible. No it was totally awkward:
Boy: “We are going to go back to the hostel to sleep now.”
Brother: “TO FUCK.”
Did I mention I finally got laid again awww yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.
Also at least his brother thinks my Nazi jokes are FUNNY and makes his OWN instead of telling me that I am being a RASCIST. Only they are all tall now I know why the boyfraan thinks he is short even though 6ft is not short. It would seem I am CHILD-SIZED.
But his aunt/uncle had LLAMAS which was excellent even if the llamas were also tall. And kitties. And Lebkuchen whatever it is it is delicious and similar to gingerbread. Only they have mulled wine instead of egg nog. Which is shit but then again nothing can compare to the glory of egg nog.
Then after Xmas “second Christmas” whatever the fuck that is. Go to his father’s house. They made me say the pledge. The fucking pledge. Of allegiance. To the flag. Etc. Also they all thought they could English. Only not. Just the boy and the 15?-year-old stepbrother. But adorably stereotypical accents so whatever. And they made all the farting and shitting jokes SO GERMAN IT HURTS.
Like seriously who even laughs at soap bottles “farting” I thought that was just an exaggeration only it is NOT and they found it to be the Most Hilarious. Also the board games. “I am trying explaining in English. Is like Blitzkrieg lesson.” I don’t even.
Anyway finally back in Vienna for New Year’s Eve. Have I ever mentioned that Vienna is literally the best place ever because it is. They were fucking waltzing. Like all over the first district. Okay so that was known also predictable.
Only unfortunately I found the real English name for Kaiserschmarrn. They call it “royal pancake” and not “emperor-nonsense,” even the latter is WAY BETTER. It is delicious it tastes like pancakes and omelettes and also funnelcake. Also Dr. Falafel which is the best falafel ever omg. This is why I get fat here.
But I have to go away in ten days which is the Most Sad. Stupid going home. Slash not bringing him (and also food) with me. Stupid night train. Stupid extremely very long flight. Stupid not having sex for another FOREVER even though it is kinda difficult because we sort-of broke my vagina idefk how that happens and anal is a bit difficult sometimes like seriously it took forever for it to work properly. Also I talked him into friendly-mutton-chopping his beard which makes his face look non-retarded if dangerously hipstery. Derp.
Fuck yeah 24/7 Murka diners. Stupid next semestre. I am considering registering for another easy class so that I can fix this GPA thing. Also talking to the professor but that probably won’t help he can’t even spell or grammar he is not qualified to be a person let alone a prof. Bleargh. And then the Real Life came back. But fuck yeah my housemates.
47.
Fortune Cell | January 4, 2012 at 12:40 pm
Jesus christ that sure is a post. Germany sounds so fucking adorable I don’t even know what to say. It’s SO CUTE and stereotypical. When are you going to see him next after you leave? Also I have a bunny sitting in my fridge waiting to be eaten :3
48.
Mel | January 10, 2012 at 5:44 am
I can ask him to email/Facebook you about bunnies? I left out the “oh god what is wrong with the Deutsche Bahn we are stuck in Dresden and I can’t even look at the stupid church” part. Also the emergency taxi driver has the MOST SAXON accent what is he even saying oh god the only part I got was “Shit where is the bus stop?” He should be coming to Murka late March/Early April because Austria is Catholic as fuck and like gives you a month off for Easter?
ALSO HOLY CRAP JUST CHECKED MY EMAIL ONE OF THE SCHOOLS I APPLIED TO LET ME IN WTF. So long as my GPA is above a certain number “in my Degree.” I’m guessing that’s the math-specific GPA? Which I finished off. With .05 above that. I just checked because I was holyfucknervous. OH GOD IT IS LIKE I HAVE A FUTURE OR SOMETHING. FUCK.
Also yesterday I made apple strudel and an Austrian told me it was fucking yummy and how exactly did I do it? Only I didn’t know. But whatevs, yesterday a much better best day ever.
49.
Fortune Cell | January 11, 2012 at 2:06 pm
What does he need to say about bunnies? I did most of mine with a recipe I’ve done before, mustard and panko crusted. The organs are going to become terrine, and the rest is going into the crockpot tomorrow I think.
Also YAY I told you that you would get into schools. ALL the schools. And yeah, it sounds like you’re right, it’d only be major-requisite courses. Apple strudel sounds nummy. I may have to do some of that.

Homework? Hmmm… Someone told me I have a “paper” due “Monday”. But that doesn’t sound right, so I think I’ll keep on not doing it!!
PS The condo has gotten SO CLEAN suddenly gee how could that have happened…

Good thing the midnight deadline isn’t strict..

Fortune Cell | January 30, 2012 at 6:10 am
Turnitin.com is a bit of a bitch. But the paper ended up done at a reasonable time, which let me get way too drunk for a Sunday night! I am kind of a lightweight, but finishing off the evening with a 10% is probably a bad idea in general. On the plus side, crashing at 10 pm means that I got a TON of sleep!
58.
Mel | February 10, 2012 at 6:25 pm
Turnitin has too many screens yo.
Dude fuck this “school” shit I am so done with it.
Except, like, not ever.
And now my free time is made up entirely of watching every episode of Doctor Who ever with my housemate. With upwards of 8hrs/day of sitting on that damn couch what is my life I liked being foreveralone on the internets. Like now. Seriously, the annoying underclassmen come over to do whatever it is they do and none of you are online this makes me Sad.
I should be doing a transcript of OVER AN HOUR’S WORTH OF CONVERSATION in which I fix the English of the most adorable Chinese grad student ever. But if I do it too long it all autofilters to Correct Grammar Mode in my head. Or writing like a comparative analysis of different versions of Sleeping Beauty. These liberal arts classes are killing me. Well, conversation/comp. isn’t bad because I just show up and awkward at people for an hour STORY OF MY LIFE and then it’s over. But a class of “but I thought it was happily ever after I love Disney princesses” is the Most Harrowing Thing and sadly required for my degree >:(
Whatever it’s motherfucking Rach time.
