@who cares fuck the responses, why is the photo not showing how damn good looking he is?
@CML It wasn’t James’ fault that the questions are kinda lame. Hilarious interviews should be more open-ended.
@hello 09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C1
@bye for the second time, i do not like movies.
@wtf who uses hd-dvd anyway
@s!! only boring people get bored
@clever? If he’s joking with the “regrets” question, it’s funny. But if not, it’s… not.
@jrodney james’ junk is at least a long as kogler’s
@Veritas No one’s junk is as long as kogler’s. If anyone gets close, he just makes his longer.
@this post was BOOORRRINNGGGGGGG
@i'de.... be careful to criticise the man… he could beat any of us in a duel any time
@it's true that this article could have been more interesting. I love James, and he’s really not that quiet. I call for a sequel!
@llll boriiiinnnnggg.
the guy certainly seems accomplished, but why bother publishing this article when it’s so devoid of anything interesting.
@because he’s best buddies with avi zenilman?
@well that helps, but this is easier:
The Blue & White
Managing Editors
James R. Williams
@*sigh* that’s a different james williams. the name ain’t no xanadu kahn.
@no... No, it’s the same guy. He abbreviates “Leighman” with an “R.”.
Duh.
@i am 12 ‘duh’ maybe for you, but not for 11.
@boring? bwog readers who say this interview is boring why are you always looking for something to be funny or clever? isn’t okay every once in a while for someone to answer stupid bwog interviews like this in a straight up fashion without the psuedo-intellectual cleverness attached? that shit isn’t even funny a quarter of the time. sometimes its just plain stupid.
@ugh why should I read something “straight up”? I’m not coming here to read the same grunty responses I would have barked at these questions had someone woken me up at 4:30AM to answer them.
@ha! true, you’re coming here because you’re procrastinating on that paper that’s due soon
@Well It’s kind of stupid to label something as “senior wisdom” when nothing of the sort is offered by the responses.
@Iiii liked it! More of these!
@wow that was boring. only the “abstain” comment was remotely clever.
@james is pretty quiet. good kid though. and how many columbians do you know with multiple ivy title rings and an ncaa championship ring?
@clearly such people are too busy off campus to get to know many of us.
