You know what grinds my gears? Only one member of the School of Informatics' faculty out of a dozen or so offered to write me a letter of recommendation. Last night I got an e-mail from one of the faculty members who did not even reply back to my request for a letter asking me to give a donation to the school.

Why the fuck would I give you any money if you're not even going to reply with a simple, "No" to my letter request? Sure, it was most definitely a mass e-mail with all the names ("Dear Michael,...") adjusted accordingly, but still, that's pretty bullshit. Oh well that school was a joke anyway - I should have gone Comp Sci and learned something.

Agreed. (Although Comp Sci is in the school of Informatics)

(Now it is, probably because of budgeting or bureaucratic red tape or some shit. It was its own school at some point during my undergrad.)

I'm surprised to hear that CS had its own building at IU at one point. Then again, I'm at a college where the moment people hear Computer Science they think of either masochists, asians, or smart-asses.

I'm all three of those, but I didn't do CS.

Well, you're Fasian, and I know you're an ass. I'll have to trust you on the rest :)

If you are no longer connected to the internet, you need to apply more wax to your modem: it'll make it go faster.
If you find this funny, you're a nerd.
If neither of the above apply, you are normal. Congratulations.

It's fine, I really wish I could have stayed longer. It sucked d that I was being pulled to leave right as the shots started. I wanted to get buck with indyddr. Just be yourself, weirdo. Also, you look a lot more like skinny merk these days!

Brandon, this reminds me, is there anything you like or enjoy? I feel like you're similar to Chad in that you hate everything with some minor exceptions (butts and house music in Chad's case).

I appreciate the kind words, people have started to notice my hearkening back to Shin-Merk which is great for my insatiable thirst for attention. Da Butt Hut is arguably a better venue for debauchery so when Mr. Chad hosts something there we can get stupid and bring out the mack.

This is so very accurate. I care about bottoms and house music more than you can imagine.

I can't tell if that's sarcasm but if it's not then I am glad you agree with me!

Um.... just finished watching the 2011 Konami Top Ranker for IIDX, Pop'N, and DDR. (This was viewable via ustream.) Here's a quick summary for those who don't feel like watching it on youtube:

What Dolce was possibly thinking at the IIDX Top Ranker: "Nobody else AAA'd Beach Side Bunny and perditus┼paradisus? (Considered to be the two hardest Resort Anthem songs and possibly harder than even Scorpion Fire and Mei!) This may have been too easy."
What RIN-GO and 513 (Widely considered the best active DDR players in Asia) were possibly thinking at the DDR Top Ranker: "We're the best, so one of us should win! Wait, who the hell is this Brozoni guy and how the hell did he slaughter both of us?"
What all of the finalists thought at the Pop'N Top Ranker: "Where the hell is LIFULL and RoBo?"
What everybody thought at the other Top Rankers: "Wait, these games are competitive?"
