People who say "chick" to describe the female gender are always douchebags.

So our ancestors spoke Simlish?
Sssshh...someone just wants to complain.
Agreed! At my university the econ and philosophy majors are the absolute worst out of these "intellectuals", and they'll try to use their twisted understanding of society to justify their bigotry. The hard sciences do have their own version of the bigot-"intellectual", but they are far fewer in number, at least in my…
It's not just science "intellectuals" (emphasis on quotes)! Liberal arts "intellectuals" are guilty of this too! Only they use "cultural" and "economic" reasons to justify their rampant sexism/racism/homphobia. In my university it's those philosophy/econ major buttholes who ruin people's days. One econ major once…
Cheer up Chief! At least this year we got froyo on campus!
Yeesh. I don't know if she's doing this out of pure irony, or what.
I'm really sorry about how you're being treated overseas. The exotification and de-normalization of black people is awful. Apparently some East Asians think that black people even have different colored blood. BlackinAsia (tumblr) wrote beautiful posts on that matter (and he's a Duke alum, too ;) ). Also: the…
The issue with her article is how she concludes. She has experienced racially based discomfort in Uganda, and then praises her "anonymous" life as a white person in the U.S, while seemingly ignoring the fact that non-white citizens experience racial discomfort everyday in the U.S. You'd think that her experiences in…
GASP *spasms uncontrollably*
This reminds me of this awful article some student at my university (white) wrote about her experience in Uganda. It's not totally related, but it's hilarious how oblivious some people are. http://www.dukechronicle.com/articles/2013/…
ahem. I have calmed.
EXACTLY. To all those who wonder why middle schoolers are so fucking miserable all the time, IT'S BECAUSE OUR MOUTHS WERE WIRED SHUT WE COULDN'T EAT WE COULDN'T TALK WE WERE SCREAMING INSIDE BUT YOU DIDN'T HEAR ALL TO GET SOME SUPERFICIALLY STRAIGHT TEETH
You put what I felt into words. Thank you.
So who else is excited for the fucking Sailor Moon reboot?
I think other people already covered how "black" and "Asian" fraternities are NOT black and Asian-exclusive. They just focus on their respective cultures. On my campus, for example, the Asian-focused one is about 25% non-Asian (black, white, etc). There would probably be more non-Asians in it, but non-Asians are shy…
LOL!!!
UGA's the worst when it comes to Greek social dominance. F*ck that shit, seriously. (I feel you because I briefly attended UGA)
Yep!! (I mentioned JL because everyone was focusing on just the Batman Animated show, but GODDAMN all those shows were amazing!)
Justice League was also amazing!
