In light of yesterday’s Craigslist aggregation, a few readers and commenters have requested the return of Bwog Personals. Bwog Personals, you’ll recall, were a frequent occurrence last spring (the season of love, etc.) and culminated with a heroic showing by CCSC Presidential candidates George Krebs and Alidad Damooei. “How could we top that?” we thought. […]

We received only a few responses to the Missed Connections post, but this didn’t sadden us, Columbia. You see, the fewer Missed Connections, the more connected you must be, and we celebrate your happiness in love. But we continue to fight for those still seeking romance, so with that in mind, the following are the […]

After so many hours locked up in Butler, Bwog couldn’t help but notice a few smoldering glances flying from person to person across the brutally well-lit study spaces. It got us thinking, and we decided to start a feature that we’d been considering for a long time: Missed Connections. Oh, my, yes. While some of […]

Dear John, I know this will be difficult, but our budding relationship has reached a dead end.  When I met you, it was your culinary skills that made you stand out of the crowd who just wanted to make penis jokes.  I fell so hard for you. I felt my heart beating like a percussion […]

Columbia loves bureaucracy, burns employees Back in the day, Columbia was the love police Inhabitants of Sulzberger don’t spend the night alone…they spend it together, in the gym Moral: If you only ever date people in the Spec office, your perspective on Valentines Day/romance/seduction is…different. Only today could a sentence like “ogling [Debora Spar] for […]

This sign was spotted atop the muffin display case in Cafe 212. Coming soon: a crumpled piece of notebook paper tacked up next to the sandwich menu, reading, “Do u like me? Check box yes or no. Luv, Turkey.”

Zach van Schouwen tips off Bwog on a Facebook revelation: Top Movies in the Columbia Network 1. Fight Club 2. Love Actually 3. Zoolander 4. The Big Lebowski 5. Shawshank Redemption  All pretty standard, except for number 2. What, was Four Weddings and a Funeral too edgy?  

Someone who must truly adore the sculpture Tight Rope Walker (on the bridge over Amsterdam) has placed a mattress spraypainted with the words “Just in Case” beneath (thanks to Noam Harary for the photo). Bwog guesses that, after thirty years without a spotter, the spindly statuettes can finally relax. Unless they fall in, um, any other direction…  

You’ll never know who she is, but you’ll read her anyway. Send questions, propositions, and fan mail to bwogsex@gmail.com. Welcome to the Belle Jar. I dedicate this Valentines Day to Lisa Nowak.  Some people can go the distance for love. Walking across campus last night, I counted eight guys and girls carrying flowers to their […]

Manhattan poll takes calculated, er, “responsible” stance on expansion: city’s “success…difficult to absorb”. There’s always Bounty. Mudd to get greener (does that mean less muddy, or more?) Police rubber-stamp 11-block strike walk… …but in opinion, we find self-conscious Iraq caution, and the same message with a lot more braggadoccio…plus, to top it all off, love is […]

The internets are afire with talk of this weekend’s “Modern Love” column in the NY Times, authored by one Ashley Cross, a reputed student at our very own university. The mysterious Ms. Cross, who could not be located by Facebook, Columbia directory, or truly thorough Googling (unless she happens to own this site), has come […]

In our second poetry post of the day, Bwog is happy to announce that both of this week’s personals were offered dates. Pitr’s suitor–who would like to remain anonymous–had a particularly charming proposition, reprinted below. I have written a series of four haikus in order to try and explain why I love Pitr so, and […]
