By Bwog Staff on Sep 13, 2014 0 Comments

The Palin family may have gotten into a drunken brawl. (State Column) Endless salad and breadsticks? There must be a downside. (Arizona Daily Star) “A 15-metre-long behemoth with a crocodile-like face,” or the first known aquatic dinosaur. Terrifying. (IBN) Meanwhile, putting tanks in towns may not be the most popular idea.

Overseen: Someone Doesn’t Want To Finish Their Sandwich

By Bwog Staff on Sep 12, 2014 2 Comments

Some brilliant entrepreneur in EC is selling the last half-bite of what looks like a wonderful sandwich. The fine customer service of this enterprise is shown by a generous offer to “remove meat for vegetarians.” Hurry, or this fragment of bread will be gone.

Where Are All The Bathrooms?

By Bwog Staff on Sep 12, 2014 4 Comments

Columbia’s academic buildings have odd bathroom patterns. Many a time, students must walk several floors to find a bathroom they can use (and want to use). To solve this issue, we sent some magnificent bathroom mappers to survey several buildings’ restroom facilities and present them to you in easy-to-remember poetic form. Gender-neutral bathrooms, and an […]

NFL Commish Roger Goodell dropped the ball on Ray Rice’s domestic abuse investigation, and Ray Rice was dropped from his endorsement deals with Nike, Vertimax and several other companies.

The Great CU Dems Email Thread Of 2014

By Bwog Staff on Sep 11, 2014 2 Comments

Last night, an infuriating amount of students began requesting to be taken off of the Columbia Democrats email listserv. One tipster suggested that the unsubscribe-request rate correlated with Obama’s approval rating.
