My high school best friend went to college where KA had their Alpha chapter. Imagine the standard KA experience but turned up to 11. It was a tony liberal arts college in the South where 95% of the student body was Greek and KA was *still* unusually insufferable.

Me reading this as the former president of my fraternity:

β€œLeave early to do kegstands?” Now that’s just a harmful stereotype. Fraternities are about more than… β€œat the KA House…” never mind. That absolutely checks out.

For almost of our ancestors who willingly emigrated to America, the "right way" was:

1) Get on boat
2) Get off boat

America's current byzantine immigration process is designed so that, unless you're part of an exceedingly small group of people, there simply is no "right way".

Many years later, as he faced the firing squad, Colonel Aureliano BuendΓ­a was to remember that distant afternoon when his father took him to discover ice.

When he was about to get shot, Ari Goodday thought about when his dad showed him ice.

I was looking forward to the version where every digital character was played by Andy Serkis and every real life character was played by Jeffrey Coombs in prosthetics.

Hypothetically, if I were to get elected to Congress and then punch Andy Ogles in the face while in the House chamber, would that fall under the Speech and Debate clause?

I once got asked by students how I prep for class. I told them I figure out the two or three things I absolutely need to say or we absolutely need to talk about and that’s about it. I let the discussion itself carry the rest of us like a current.

They… did not believe me.

There are so many points in that thread where I'm like "Oh, god. I'm dying of second hand embarrassment. It can't possibly get worse than this," and then IT DOES.

For all its faults, St. Louis is an incredible food city. This includes Fitz's root beer and Red Hot Ripplets, a barbecue potato chip that will melt your face off if you get to the bottom of the bag where it's all crumbs and dust. TIL Ripplets are illegal to sell in the state of California.
