Early Wednesday morning, Bwog correspondent Nina Bell found herself a Bored at Butler Celebrity, if by fame you means people posting, “I just printed a pic of NIna off face book, went to the toilety and jerked off on her nose.” But, in the end, Nina fought back. And won. Excerpts from the (WAY TOO […]

Girl 2: You’re what? Girl 1: Impervious. To. Water. Girl 2: So you can’t get wet..? Girl 1: Oh no, I can […]

Or, to be more accurate, Dean Colombo knows that you have a first name. It’s a start, Chris, but something to keep working on, along with just how many spaces the word “graduation” has (hint: zero).

In which film savant Iggy Cortez gives you something to watch this weekend when you ask the cute girl from CC to your room to “watch a movie.” By the fourth week of school you know there is no turning back, and what better way to take refuge but in the movies? Fellni’s exuberant films […]

Dear Bwog, A wise man once said, “You’re not hardcore unless you live hardcore.” Even the fact that I’m quoting Tenacious D should give it away – I’m the least hardcore person to ever exist, ever. I’m politically lukewarm; I like whatever music my roommate likes; I can barely put pepper on my food, let […]

An elderly Lifelong Learner — in a discussion section she’s not required to take — when asked about the week’s readings: “I’m having a hard time with them because every time I read it feels like I forget everything right after.” –C. Mason Wells

In which Bwog staffer Mark Krotov familiarizes us with the places where you can find him when he’s supposed to be in class. When I took chemistry in high school, I sat in front of a sink that I regularly turned on and off to prevent myself from falling asleep. When Columbia students take chemistry, […]

Man. It’s so very very sad when minors (or near-minors) exploit themselves. Or guess wildly at the going rate for porn. Or haven’t yet figured out people can have multiple email addresses. Broke freshman, the Bwog salutes you, but next time have a chat with Jamie to find out how it’s done first. UPDATE: Seems […]

This is the first installment of Morningside Lows, an ongoing series about cheap and local goings-on. $150 in credit is frozen on your Mastercard.
