Seriously, all weekend and last night, people have been hosting parties on my floor, which isn't the bad part. The bad part is that the people throwing parties' friends will do whatever they damned please, which entails running up and down the hallway screaming and banging on doors, and dropping half-filled cans of beer everywhere. Last night there about thirteen dudes standing outside of their friend's door, pounding on it, and screaming "OOOOOOOOOOOH!" like it was an English soccer match or something.
Like, what kind of shitty parents do you have that tells you it's acceptable to do that? Why can't you just knock and call your friend's name at an acceptable volume? I don't mind people doing stuff like that in their rooms, as the noise is just reasonably muffled, but the hallways carry noise too well in here. Man Penn State blows, I should have gone to Pitt.

Haha. I just read through your entire post thinking "That sounds like assholes from my school." Then I got to the end. And in fact... it is my school.
We are...
Off campus living, man. It's the way to go.

 Thou, because I am wroth, be not dismayed, for I shall win the strife, whoever circle round within for the defence. This their insolence is not new, for of old they used it at a less secret gate, which still is found without a bolt. Above it thou didst see the dead inscription; and already on this side of it
descends the steep, passing without escort through the circles,
One such that by him the city shall be opened to us. |

Yeah, off campus living, it's cheaper and you don't have to deal with assholes. The downside is you'll have to find a way to get to class though. Don't your dorms have Resident Assistants or whatever their called? They're supposed to regulate those assholes. Also, at my school, the campus is dry, and they recently just toughened the alcohol policy and make freshmen take a mandatory class. But you can still see a train full of drunk dildoes wandering the sidewalks looking for a party and being loud as fuck.

I actually do live off-campus in an apartment building (so no RA's), and if I were to live any more off campus, I'd end up living in my hometown (I grew up in the next town over, and my car is finished, so no commuting). I don't mean to sound like a loser or anything, I can take a party at one or two am as I have the world's most fucked up sleep schedule, It's when it's in the middle of a weekday night and you're doing annoying stuff like wailing on my door and running away every fifteen minutes or banging on a cowbell at six am on Saturday yelling your favorite football chant. I guess it's my fault, as I shoulda figured that living in the party zone would have done this, but damn.

Well I can honestly tell you, having gone to school next to Pitt that you would probably be in a similar situation there. Its a pretty party intensive school.

 In a way, each of us has an El Guapo to face. For some, shyness might be their El Guapo. For others, a lack of education might be their El Guapo. For us, El Guapo is a big, dangerous man who wants to kill us. But as sure as my name is Lucky Day, the people of Santa Poco can conquer their own personal El Guapo, who also happens to be *the actual* El Guapo! |

Yeah my buddy graduated from Pitt. They had less regard for personal property then they do at Penn State. He would go nuts and destroy shit in the dorms, and off campus all the time. He also mentioned to me that "Pit Fighting" went on at some houses off campus. Also, he told me, along with someone I worked with at a previous employer who didn't even know him, about people partying and these guys throwing a tv down 3 stories at a guy, and it killed him. This, by the way, is my the girl I worked with then, left Pitt, she couldn't handle it.

I think the majority of the people are assholes on purpose. I went to a community college, so I lived at home. But I had friends at different colleges who all lived in dorms. I would go visit them. It was always like that.

I did that my freshmen year when my neighbours were being too loud. If I could hear them through the walls, I'd put my speakers and sub against the wall and play Cannibal Corpse's "Orgasm Through Torture" on full blast until they shut up. I have since grown up and am not such a passive aggressive little pussy.

I can tell you right now that RA's are too fucking lazy to do anything. They generally suck at their jobs, but they are friendly at least (usually).
Also why the fuck do college students seem to have trouble flushing the toilets? It's not that hard.
I'm officially done with college, and I couldn't be happier about it really. Bunch of animals.
