Facebook f you
Bwog received several tips regarding the glorious Facebook Flyer displayed at right, which we are sure brought smiles to procrastinators throughout campus (and, perhaps, panic to a certain scarf thief). We wish the flyer’s anonymous poster good luck bundling up, although (s)he probably needs to cool off a little anyway.
Come now, Chris
Okay, Dean Colombo, we’ll take your enrolled student survey for the chance to win a $60 gift certificate to the bookstore (after all, we need some souvenirs to remember this place by beyond drunken photos and loan repayment reminders). But did it have to come from a generic template hosted on the MIT server? Bwog wonders what other schools might be soliciting this information from their students… (hint: one question mentions “secret societies” and “eating clubs”)
Seth Strikes Again
For those too lazy to read all of CCSC President Seth Flaxman’s latest, greatest email, a FastFlax (by way of highlights):
- On Glass House Rocks: “really, it’s actually fun and people go”
- On Subliminal Advertising: “Books on Campus lets you buy and sell textbooks online. GLASS HOUSE ROCKS. You can log in using your Facebook account and buy or sell books…”
- On the Art of Peer Adivising: “help students make or not make the same mistakes you did”
- On Ulterior Motives “There is free food inside the attachment.”
- On English Majors: “please keep all grammatical corrections to yourself”
The best parts, however, Bwog will leave for those with the patience to scroll…

@curious could someone post a copy of the columbo survey? i get an error
@a pissed econ major. seth you really hurt me.
@MANLEY COTTINGSHIRE HOW DARE YOU ADOPT MY TONE FOR YOUR CAPITALISTIC ENDS
I AM THE ONLY MANLEY IN THIS HOUSE
ok not really.
@noo you’re clearly witless. transfer to seas?
@anyone? Does ANYONE else find Seth’s emails incredibly annoying???!?
@nope Seth is awesome.
@scarfseller I WOULD LIKE TO SELL A SCARF PLEASE SEND ME AN E-MAIL TO BUY THIS SCARF IT IS A NICE SCARF BUT I AM STILL WILLING TO SELL IT
@hehe YOU made my day!
@no. the aliases were really just to fit with the theme of his you tube link, i believe.
@shira also, the e-mail was sent to beauty@columbia.edu, beast@columbia.edu, and gaston@columbia.edu! yeah aliases!
@references the beauty, beast, and gaston are, without a doubt, references to GS, CC, and SEAS
it is up to you to decide which is which
@cute except the ccsc email wouldn’t have anything to do with GS or SEAS. try again.
@Anna Beauty = CC
Beast = Seas (but we’ll marry them anyway when they transform into rich, mansion owning princes)
Gaston = GS (chin dimples are so dated!)
@For the sake of humor, I hope the stolen scarf wasn’t unique. Watching innocent people getting their faces bludgeoned is…HILARIOUS.
@sethflax4eva sigh. i wish lerner was beautiful
@grammar bwog no doubt failed to notice the intentional error in the subject of the email…
@bwog is unfailingly cognizant of the subjunctive, if that’s what you mean. but it trusts seth is as well.
@FlaxFan The amount of happiness I get out of my monthly CCSC e-mails is rather absurd. I think the 2007 campaign should involve an e-mail composition test.
@Anonymous whoever posted that facebook flyer… you made my day. i want to buy you a drink. or 5!!
@yeah same here.
