Coming to you from the CNN: always at the forefront of international reportage.

I’m just kidding. Follow the link for an interesting discussion on the modern “hookup culture” and its reliance on alcohol as a primer on college campuses.

The questions remain whether romance is dead, and casual sex on college campuses are getting out of hand. Voice your opinions in the comment section!

Choice quotes:

Dr. Drew: “Dating is something that Grandpa did.”

“[One of the options for college kids is to be] friends with benefits, which looks great on paper. But so did Communism.”

“The thing about college hookups is it’s always intoxicated. You’ve gotta be loaded because it’s such a cool thing.”

In response to the question of why alcohol had to go hand in hand with hooking up,

The Jock: “[Alcohol] gives you courage.” (Quite frankly, he doesn’t seem like he needed any.)

Pro-Hookup Gal: “[Alcohol] helps me say yes.”

The Verdict: Nothing really new here, but the short video is worth a viewing or two. Because what else are you going to do these days? The coffee machine in the office pantry is still in perfect working condition.
