Check the underlined Facebook groups out.



How blind can ya be?

Note: By order of my therapist, I'm going to avoid politics unless he brings it up. Last thing I need is to get booted out of school for slugging him/get a broken nose if he slugs me.

11. It's what I predicted. Johnny Depp is popular now. It will soon be cool
to hate him. He might as well jump on a couch.

4. Hey, last year I had a ROTC suitemate who made this guy look normal.
Anyone who comments on how they'd shoot a little kid for blocking the path of a convoy in Iraq and posts a used rifle target on the fridge...

That dude wasn't right in the head.

6. Damn!
You have had some bad luck on suitemates!

This year's guy definitely sounds like an improvement.

Next year, I have got to get an off-campus apartment with someone sane.

3. Stay open for miracles.

9. Social site for college students.
How much detail do you want?

15. My son's in college and he's still getting e-mail at his home address.
I had to forward some of his e-mail to his college address and this facebook thing popped up quite a bit. For example, there was a comment from the facebook people asking him if he had approved a certain nametag, and also several inquiries stating that certain students had asked to be added to his friends list. I believe that also had to do with facebook. So, is it a webpage like "My Space?"

16. Similar, but you can't create bastardized abomination profiles like MS.
Facebook has less customization than myspace, but it's fast, easy to use, and a good way to get hold of other students.

17. Does each college have their own facebook?
Or is it just one that everyone patronizes?

20. Each college has its own subsection on the site as a whole.
Registration just involves signing up with your college e-mail.

And you can also contact people from other colleges.

18. I sorta had that thing figured out, but the suitemates thing sounds
like boarding on the Haaaavid quad.

Most college kids I knew had something quaint called "roommates!"

19. 4-bedroom suite.
I'm such a slob that I'm not willing to condemn anyone to sharing a room with me.

12. LOL! Apparently his girl is long-distance.
I've noticed Republicans/authoritarians/etc... generally watch a lot of TV. My scary ROTC roommate last year (see upthread, posts w/Nicole) almost never got off the couch. He'd just sit there and watch HBO for hours on end.

13. I had a suite mate at Mississippi State who screamed racial slurs
at night because I had a black roommate. His roommate was always trying to shut him up, and apologized to me a couple of times for the jackas's behavior. He never apologized to my roommate, though.
