#823 To whoever was writing on the windows during the Afrika Kagin:

Not okay. There are so many things wrong with what you did - the message, the mechanism, the location, the words - but the biggest one is the hate and negativity that you spread so unproductively last night. It doesn't matter who it was to or who it was from; hate speech is hate speech. Drunken frivolity is no excuse, and it does nothing but foster more unnecessary prejudice on both sides. Next time, try sharing your opinions in a respectful way and in a more effective environment that creates a dialogue and promotes progress, not in sloppy hateful words on condensation in a room full of people just trying to have a good time.

#823 Whether or not we understand the power of our words, we still use them... so I'm interested to know what the creator of this More Than Words poster thought the power of the word "derp" was?

Macalester pushes the boundary a lot. And I'm a open person in favor of societal reform, so I typically approve of our attempts. That is, until you FUCK with the word DERP.

1998 A.D., BASEketball, first known use of derp: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_50pa6LsZE
1999, South Park episode 34, "The Succubus": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlYEVu-F_to=
2006, 4chan's random board begins creating memes utilized the word derp: http://memebase.cheezburger.com/derp

The Oxford University Dictionary defines the word as such: "[u]sed as a substitute for speech regarded as meaningless or stupid, or to comment on a foolish or stupid action."

Five companies joined up to launch an initiative called Digital Ecologies Research Partnership: http://derp.institute/

Derp is so god damn popular of a word that it has its own Facebook pages with nearly a 100,000 likes: https://www.facebook.com/pages/DERP/229127348378?ref=ts

In conclusion, some high and mighty social acti-derp had their head so far up their own derp that they thought they could just ban the word derp and nobody would give a derp. Well guess again you mother of a derp. I ask, no I demand, that the word derp be removed from the More Than Words campaign posters!

EXONERATE DERP

#823 I am perpetually entertained by the sheer quantity of money given by rebellious hipsters to the RNC through their incredibly loyal patronage of Big Tobacco. PhillipMorris really knows how to advertise!

#822 I have to thank hipsters and social justice people for getting all of the piercings, tattoos, and weird haircuts. It sure serves as a good self-identification for people who are not worth your time to interact with. It's kind of like how poisonous animals often have bright colors on them, as if to say "Nope, I'm not worth your time at all."

#822 I spend most of my time keeping myself busy with coursework, honours research and orgs just to distract myself from how much I hate myself for being such an unconfident loser the rest of the time.

#822 Finally! I can lay down 100% horizontally in the shower!! #WallacePerks

#822 please remember to bathe and do laundry because we can smell you.

#822 Could the layout of 1600grand be less intuitive? It's been almost four years, and I still can't find shit on there.
