  • heyyyPosted from campus

    Bwog, to be honest I am a little shocked, perhaps offended?, that you advertised Rubulad on here. It’s crowded enough as it is. Besides, I don’t think they like other people publicizing their events. It’s supposed to be all word-of-mouth and a few mailing lists. Bwog doesn’t count as either of those.

    • OffensePosted from campus

      …it’s a word whose definition you should learn.

      In other news, when I’m feeling down and sad I can always take comfort in knowing I’m better looking than Tori Spelling. DAMN.

    • bwog

      doesn’t count as word of mouth? Maybe word of blog, but its the same idea.

  • FYIPosted from campus

    Just to let yall crazy Tori Spelling fans know, she is staying in Le Parker Meridian midtown and is driving around in a black Escalade.

  • i goPosted from campus

    to rubulad to ESCAPE columbia. i don’t want to go there and see people from my cc class.

    • amen.Posted from campus

      I’m hoping the long subway ride to get there will deter Columbia people from going. So many off-campus sites of debauchery have already been ruined by the overeager, under-21 crowd so anxious to get off campus and make asses of themselves, I would be so sad if the same thing were to happen to Rubulad.

  • are you kidding me?!

    rubulad is no secret. let’s not pretend like it is.

  • GET OVER

    YOURSELF

  • Let's getPosted from campus
