No, I was referring to brilliant repartee of your roomie. If you will notice, we simulposted, so it would have been impossible for me to be replying to you.

Ok I see. They talk like that over the phone too. Annoying!

Yes, my girlfriend and I are silly when we correspond, but my nicknames for her do not reflect my maturity. Normally, I’m a serious, straight-forward, and no bullshit engineering student. I’m a person of contrast. I like it that way : P

I thought this thread was about the quality of sex one gets in the dorm.

And **WSLer** Cows can go downstairs.

As steaks.

Well, now that you mention it, the beds _are_ awfully small…  
Actually, judging by the sounds that usually drifted through the electrical socket by my bed my freshman year, **somebody’s** dorm fucking didn’t suck. The chick next door lived alone, and her boyfriend was fond of games. They’re the reason I can never watch professional wrestling again.

I find it interesting that so many of us seem to be UK students, yet we haven’t thrown a Dopefest or something. Odd.

I wonder if any of us have classes together and don’t know it.

We should get together sometime.

I’m talking in one-sentence paragraphs.

This is annoying, isn’t it?

We should get SG to sponsor it. After all, they have no qualms about spending $55,000 on a four hour concert. Fucking Tim Robinson. He deserves some sort of recognition for wasting so much money.

Having multiple false fire alarms go off in the middle of the night before your big test the next morning is not fun. This happened to me more than once.

Dorms by definition are hellholes, in my experience. Might as well be living inside a submarine. I guess the main difference is, you can GO OUTSIDE if it gets too unbearable, unlike the sub 😃

Ya know, I read the OP and thought to myself “Hey, there was a thread just like this a while back” Then I got to Rilchiams post and thought “Damn, I swear I heard this story once before.”

Then I looked at the dates. DOH!  
There should be a rule against resurrecting old threads without any explaination.  
I am going to go find a 2 year old thread about how SNL sucks and just say “Yeah, SNL does suck” and see how many people I can confuse.
