CS50 Shout-Outs (Literally)

Posted by on October 3, 2011 at 3:18 pm

For the 90% of you undergrads that weren’t present in Sanders Theater for CS50 today: you missed quite a lecture. Well to be fair, even those in attendance probably missed most of what was going on due to a number of outbursts in the orchestra section.

A rather scruffy looking individual sitting in the lower section (pictured above), shouted intermittently at Professor David Malan over the course of the 1.5-hour lecture.

Most noteworthy among his loudly spoken outbursts were things that made us blush and giggle uncomfortably. Phrases like: “C**k!“, “WTF?“,  and “This is crap, this is total crap!“ At around the middle of the lecture about pointers and RAM, he even shouted, “ZUCKERBERG!” 

Within an hour, this man’s seating row was completely vacated of students, leaving him more or less free to lay across the bench, make unnerved faces, and make wild, rhythmic hand gestures (what was described by one individual as “a crazy swap dance”). David Malan to his credit, handled the situation rather equanimously, even entertaining the man’s inquiry as to why he kept using the phrase “sanity check.” During a break in the lecture, Malan came down from the stage  to speak to the disruptive individual. And that was pretty much that.

We won’t speculate as to who or what this man was about, but we can say this: he sure as heck wasn’t taking any notes.

If you wanna see how it all went down, listen carefully for the expletive exclamations on the Week 5, Monday video at cs50.net.

What a Shitty Morning

Posted by on September 24, 2011 at 3:23 pm

Harvard students just can’t hold it all the way to the bathroom.

Last year, someone took a big ol’ poo in Quincy (and then stuffed it in a dropbox) and what WHAT what, it’s happened again, but this time in the Quad. We received this message that was sent over Pfoho’s house mailing list, and oh how we cringed.

“I stepped out of my room in Wolbach this morning and was greeted by an awful smell. Then I noticed a giant pile of shit on the stairwell between the second and third floors. I don’t know who’s responsible for the act itself and I wouldn’t care if the mess could somehow clean itself up. But it can’t. And the custodians should not have to deal with it. If you know who might have done it (whether you were with them when they did or hosted one of the watering holes they passed through on what must have been a pretty crazy night) please get in touch with that person and tell them to come over to the Wolbach stairwell and clean up their mess. Restore my faith in humanity because right now I’m pretty pissed off.”

Party fouls happen, but that’s no excuse to take a dump on the stairs. Also, once is an accident and twice a coincidence. One more doodie incident will turn this whole situation into a big shitty pattern. Let’s not let it get that far, mmm?

STOP IT, KAY?

Ivy League Admit Goes Cray-Cray

Posted by on April 1, 2011 at 9:44 am

Some people feel entitled to receive fabulous gifts upon being accepted to Ivy League Institutions. Rachel Hachero, a 17 year old from Fort Meyers, Florida took it a step too far, however and expected to receive a 2004 Nissan 350z sports car…

Yeah, she aimed high. And when her mother was unwilling to co-sign the loan for the ridiculously ostentatious piece of metal, Rachel got violent. That is, she pulled out a 9mm gun, pistol whipped her mother across the face, and made her drive to the dealership at gunpoint where she placed the gun in her purse and her mother signed the loan. Congratulations, she owns a car. Her mother alerted the authorities while Rachel was at school the next day, claiming that she didn’t want her daughter to be prosecuted because it would jeopardize her Ivy League acceptances and scholarship offers. That ship may have already set sail…

Mugshot FTW

Too bad. The fuzz promptly locked Rachel up in a juvenile detention facility and confiscated the gun. By the way, the gun was stolen from a Lee County Port Authority Law Enforcement officer in early July 2010. So WTF is up with that?

Crazybitch Video HERE

It’s unclear which Ivies Rachel was accepted to, but it’s safe to assume that she won’t be present for Visitas this year.

A Raunchy Video Featuring a Few Harvard Kids

Posted by on February 22, 2011 at 8:03 pm

The video below, entitled Pussy Breath, features a few of our Harvard friends in what some are calling a “nasty” rap video. It’s got nothing on Nelly’s Tip Drill, though quite a bit less sex-positive than H-Bomb.

Well there you have it. We’re almost speechless. While deep down we want to like this, we want to laugh, we want to get it. But… we also can’t help but fight the general nausea produced by watching this. Looks like we’re all going to avoid plain yogurt in the dining hall for a while.

Mad props to our hip New York Harvard gals for making it to video vixen status before graduation. See, this way it’s ironic. Ten years from now, maybe not.

The BU Biddies Admit It!

Posted by on January 30, 2011 at 10:16 pm

OMG MOOSE!

Unless you have been living under a rock, are Amish, or were raised by wolves, you must be aware of the phenomenon that is Twitter and how it is taking the world by storm. Everyone from professional athletes to to acne-covered tweens is tweeting, but there is one particular account that caught our eye at the Voice.

The account name is “Harvard Hoochies” and the bio reads that the account holder(s) are “BU biddies, hooching and husband hunting at Harvard Final Clubs. We ward off RUHGs (random ugly Harvard girls)…frequently.”

One gem of a post reads, “when you slip a final club man your number, make sure it’s not on a piece of historical paper with their founders’ story#oopsydaisies” while another boasts, “Owl, ad, fly… All conquered last night”.

BU Biddies talking after a successful night of Final Club raging...

To follow the BU biddies on their search for love, money, and men, simply visit https://twitter.com/harvardhoochies and let the amusement begin!
