Highbrow is sooo pumped for SB12! Not. While Lowbrow parties it up in PV, Highbrow will be bored off our asses watching Downton Abbey and possibly giving The Hunger Games a try.
Overheard at Penn
Girl 1: It’s hard being single. Do you think I can Craigslist a snuggle buddy? Girl 2: Yeah, if you want to get murdered. Guy to friend: I’ll bursar your order if you give me cash.
Word On The Street: Boring is Underrated
Before Penn, I can’t remember the last time I had a boring friend. I’m not talking about the kind of boring defined as “not interesting,” but rather the kind of boring friend who’s content with just watching How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days on your couch on a Friday night, while the rest of the world is at an Avicii concert.

Word on the Street: Why We Wept Over Whitney
It all happened so quickly. I absentmindedly opened my browser to check my email and there it was on People.com.

Highbrow hopes your Valentine’s Day wasn’t as pathetic as ours. While you were holding hands with that special someone, we were watching the world’s most unromantic movie, The Shining, and scrounging up some shocking gossip.
Dispatch: Single On V-Day
1:45 p.m.: French professor announces that since French is the language of love, we should tell everyone what we did on Valentine’s Day.

Valentine’s Day is almost upon us, and campus is abuzz with heart–shaped preparations. Ugh. If you’re single as hell like Highbrow, don't fret.

Tridelt: Wait, SMH stands for something? Girl in Williams Cafe line: Where did you get those boots? Theta sophomore: You know that ghetto shoe store next to Qdoba… Bro: She knows my name but I don’t know hers, and we’ve been sexting for a week. Hawaiian: In Hawaii, we say hi to everyone! American: Well, in America, we don’t. Soccer guy: Can you believe they actually put avocado on my focaccia grilled cheese?
My Penn Addiction: Stealing Food From Commons
Let me preface this by stating that what I’m about to describe doesn’t quite count as stealing.
Word on the Street: The Quest For A Gay Best Friend
[Please see ed. note at bottom of post] I have given myself a mission. Nope, it’s not to finish my freshman year with a 4.0, nor is it to use all my meal swipes by the end of the semester, nor is it even to successfully get into Smoke’s.
Word on the Street: Do I Have To?
They’re only three little words, but they can say a lot. I’m not talking about “I love you,” or “Who’s your TA?” or anything else with such obvious (and earth–shattering) meaning.

Freshman at Commons: I didn’t want, like, a big salad, but I’m going to get a big salad, you know? Guy in Chem building: Why can’t the first rule of thermodynamics be to not talk about thermodynamics? Vagelos scholar: I would give up my leftist, liberal, bleeding–heart crap for a job at Goldman in a heartbeat. Girl in Houston Hall: My Blackberry is so ghetto, the camera doesn’t even have a flash. SDT girl to ZBT guy: He’s actually a really great guy… he’s just conservative.

It feels like spring, doesn't it? It's hot as hell outside, the Tabard babies have swapped their normal wardrobes for a lovely shade of green and random pseudo–hippies who probably should have gone to Brown are playing frisbee golf on College Green.
