Saturday, April 30
OMG: Is it fair that I did badly on my work term evaluation just because I'm shy? I don't want to be shy and I do my job competently and be as nice as I can to other people, but sometimes I don't know how to join a conversation or when its appropriate to say something, so I just don't
#8812
OMG: I saw David Johnston and his wife at the wedding! So cool to see a person affiliated with Waterloo over there!
#8811
OMG: KW Room Rental 101: people are fuckin lairs. Not a single fuckin person post a REAL photo of their rooms
#8810
OMG: When I'm in school, I get so mad that I'm so busy but when I'm on break for two weeks, I get so bored that I want to go back to waterloo!
#8809
OMG: Since the term ended, I have found myself with so little to do that I watched the full coverage of the royal wedding. I'm a guy.
#8808
OMG: My highest marks are in the classes I paid the least attention in, barely attended, and did not care about studying for. Why UW, why?!
#8807
OMG: Just finished my co-op term and spring term begins next Monday. Must... savour... weekend.
#8806
OMG: Congratulations to their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge!
#8805
OMG: I wish links posted on OMGUW would open in a new tab. MODS, is this possible? So annoying to have to go back and wait for the page to reload to keep reading. MOD'S NOTE: Right click the link and press "new tab"
#8804
OMG: Banged a chick from Laurier the other day. The geek in me wants to celebrate but the UW in me wants to hang my head in shame.
#8803
OMG: Ever notice how the printed GRT schedules, text message schedules, and digital displays at stops perfectly agree with each other? Yeah, me neither.
#8802
OMG: Funny thing about anonymous posts is that you can have an entire online conversation with yourself and everyone else just thinks you made a friend Here's to the falsely popular posts
#8801
OMG: I reached a point where I can vomit from reading MCs. People, you're disgusting losers.
#8800
OMG: I love how no one leaves comments because of the anonymous commenting thing. Which practically makes this website looks like this
#8799
OMG: Waterloo, where 3's and 4's think and act like they're 8's and 9's.
#8798
OMG: Globe and mail endorses Harper... gets absolutely obliterated in their comment section. That restored my faith in humanity.
#8797
OMG: They finally arrested two people for the Campus Court fire. It only took over a year.
#8796
Thursday, April 28
OMG: For whatever reason, trying to post anonymously forced the use of my google account. My account isn't meant to be public, I don't like it when its forced to be. I will not likely be back due to privacy concerns. Thanks for understanding. MOD'S NOTE: It seems like blogger forces you to post with your gmail account... :(
UPDATE: It looks like this Blogger glitch isn't isolated to us. Please be patient, guys, the Blogger team is working towards finding a fix and anonymous commenting will be back.
#8795
OMG: Even at home I can't escape the geese; now they're in my dreams.
#8794
OMG: General rule when commenting on the top post: It's gold, Jerry, gold! Write anyshit about whatever fuckery. Every One clicks on the top post. You got a watertight 100% chance people will see your comment.
#8793
OMG: If this election turns out like all the others in the past 7 years, maybe we should go like Belgium and have no government.
#8792
OMG: MODS, Y U NO GIVE ME MY DAILY UPDATES? MOD'S NOTE: Daily updates will resume in the spring term. There are just not enough submissions for daily updates right not.
#8791
OMG: Looking at pictures and videos of frosh leader training makes me so jealous and sad. I applied to be a frosh leader but my application was rejected. I didn't even get an interview :(
#8790
OMG: Goodbye engineering, Hello arts! I had an amazing 2 years with you.
#8789
OMG: The NDP have recently surged to about 30% support, just 5% behind the Conservatives. That leaves me with a huge problem. Do I vote NDP or Liberal? Support the surging NDP, or continue to vote strategically to try and oust Harper?
#8788
OMG: At the beginning of the year I was all about hot Asian chicks (probably coz of Jap. porn). Now, I saw the light. They make the worst girlfriends ever.
#8787
OMG: Ladies and gentlemen, OMG #1
#8786
OMG: There was an outage this morning in Computer Science server & also in Reddit. Reddit is hosting CS servers.
#8785
OMG: I'll make use of the anonymity & confess this: I think that my penis is small. The girth is fine, but when it's flaccid it looks embarrassingly small that I hide it in urinals & in the gym shower. I've never said it to anyone before!
#8784
OMG: I don't come here often anymore. I'm sorry :( This site just isn't the same as it used to be.
#8783
OMG: With the campus so empty this week all I can think about are the best places to have sex
#8782
OMG: Looking at my marks on quest, I really hope I can make it back to UW next term. Really, UW is such an amazing place.
#8781
OMG: Watch out for the deadly pigeon shit.
#8780
OMG: Elizabeth May has a 45% lead in a poll for her riding versus 37.8% for Conservatives. The Greens just might actually win a seat.
#8779
OMG: My marks are so bad. I even reformed my study habits and I still end up getting the SAME crappy mark as first term. I hope I shape up even more for 2nd year and above :(
#8778
OMG: MODs get paid by the university. My buddy told me that few years ago, when suicide rates were going like batshit crazy in this place, the university decided to open a bitching vent; so student don't have to bottle up much. And that's how OMGUW started. MOD'S NOTE: It's true. We get paid 95K each per term.
#8777
OMG: I get a heart attack every time I check my grades on Quest, only to find out none of them are posted yet!
#8776
Tuesday, April 26
OMG: Its sad that some of my textbooks cost me less to import from Europe than to buy at the bookstore
#8775
OMG: The gyms are now only open between the hours of 8:00 and 4:30. Do they not realize that the only people on campus are coop students who work during those hours? Thanks a lot.
#8774
OMG: Why do people complain about geese so much? Unlike pigeons and gulls, they don't poop on your head!
#8773
OMG: I'm looking forward to watching the Royal Wedding. Really, even if HRH Prince Charles survives long enough to take the throne (unlikely given how long his mother might live), it won't be for long. So HRH Prince William will be our King in our lifetime. So I'm curious to see how he presents himself.
#8772
OMG: Best feeling ever: logging onto Quest and finding out that you passed that class you thought you failed. Especially when you're supposed to be graduating this term.
#8771
OMG: Dear McDonalds, Please supersize your playplace. Sincerely, kid-at-heart
#8770
OMG: Ever since I came back home, my younger siblings have been asking when I'm leaving. Yesterday, my brother asked when my next exam was. I'm stuck at home for the next four months. Don't worry, I'm sorry too
#8769
OMG: This site is based on lies and fake personalities. The whole story about 2 MODs and different people who post and comment is an act. You people love the act. You love to be scammed for popularity. MOD'S NOTE: It's true! Oh god, it's true!
#8768
OMG: I REALLY miss UW. My life feels incomplete without the lifelong friends I've made, stress of exams and even the geese.
#8766
OMG: It was amusing looking at the graduate student conference poster session at the DC today. They were boxed in like sheep by the posterboards.
#8765
OMG: Strategic voting is a ridiculous idea. If you really were ABC you would not have the nerve to vote liberal -- many conservatives have very little issue with potentially voting liberal, why? Because the two parties are very much the same difference (I'd argue in some ways the liberals are worse, but that's a pretentious academic thesis beside the point). I'm guessing you might've already voted lib in a recent votemob, but if you haven't yet gone to the polls - this is the strongest opportunity the NDP has had since the late 80s. don't vote against the conservatives, vote for the ndp.
#8764
OMG: Hey guys, stop getting off to porn. Instead, find someone and be the star of your own porn! Trust me, its far more rewarding.
#8763
OMG: The excitement and fear of moving to a different continent for this coop term has suddenly hit me. So OMGUW, any advice for these 4 months?
#8762
OMG: Why is there almost no love/hate for NDP. They aren't exactly frontrunners, but they are having a good run this election.
#8761
OMG: Management 'engineers'. Are you guys for real? Why not go into a real engineering program then get an MBA?
#8760
OMG: The first weekend back, and I'm missing UW like crazy.
#8759
Sunday, April 24
OMG: The amazing thing about Canada is that everyone has the right to vote. Whether you vote or not, you're still making a conscious choice. I think that's pretty awesome. Keep that in mind on election day (even if you choose not to vote) and remember that there are people in the world who are fighting just to have that right.
#8758
OMG: Oh, the lonely, lonely transition period. Feed me now.
#8757
OMG: One more week before classes start, sigh. Definitely not looking forward to that.
#8756
OMG: How come there is no abstain option on the election ballot? I want to use my right to vote but I don't think any candidate does it for me.
#8755
OMG: My last exam (short and long answers) written on the last day is up on Quest. First one written at the beginning of the exam period (Scranton multiple choice) is not up. Makes sense...
#8754
OMG: Failed the ELPE despite going into University with a 86% in 12U English.
#8753
OMG: There was a street fight in front of WLU. Good times.
#8752
Friday, April 22
OMG: Correct me if I'm wrong. UW destroyed a team because a controversial women in bikini. Women advocacy groups on campus did nothing. Students in the team got suspended, and student organizations (e.g. elected union leaders etc) did nothing. Some people bitched here and there. Couple of kids went on attention whoring & blogged their self-acclaimed 'awesome' analyses. Others gave "who the fuck cares" comments. It's a fuckery. Students lost their lifetime chance due to an obvious injustice inflicted upon them by the university. You & I did nothing to help them. That's the definition of a fuckery
#8751
OMG: Why oh why did the UW Lipdub group think a logo involving lasers was a good idea?
#8750
OMG: Casted my first ballot today and it felt good!
#8749
OMG: Checking grades on Quest at midnight, and the one course I was worried about doesn't have marks posted.
#8748
OMG: Just a friendly reminder: there are more than 5 federal parties to choose from!! My vote will go to the Animal Alliance Environment Voters Party of Canada. While I don't expect/want them to win the election, having a few seats might be a good thing. Most recently, they were able to stop U of Guelph from buying lost pets and performing experiments on them.
#8747
OMG: Waterloo does not consider you a student while on co-op and taking PD courses dont count as courses for tax purposes. Somehow I'm not considered a student while im doing them, but if I don't do them I can't be in coop? This doesn't add up... thanks for screwing me out of my tax return, UW.
#8746
Thursday, April 21
OMG: Graduation means removing some websites from my menu bar: goodbye waterloo mail, ace, quest, waterloo weather forecast, and grt! MOD'S NOTE: Hopefully not us!
#8745
OMG: People dressed as rabbits just jumped around DC library to spread candy and "happy Easter" wishes! Who said UW is not a fun place?
#8744
OMG: I am a first time, undecided voter. But based mainly on the access to information available on the 4 major parties' sites, I rank Liberal, Green, NDP, and Conservative. Green had the best website, but the Liberals the best platform. For me, anyways.
#8743
OMG: Having completed my final exam of first year a short while ago, I would just like to say that this entire year has been the worst experience of my entire life. Thank you, OMGUW and lovely MODs, for being awesome and making this experience not 100% hellish. MOD'S NOTE: No Problemo!
#8742
OMG: Never seen DC this empty. Very depressing.
#8741
OMG: I purposely sit at the tables in the SLC by the nesting geese for the sole reason of watching people get attacked by geese.
#8740
OMG: Lets say 10,000,000 people in Canada vote, plus me. For my vote to make any difference in the outcome of an election, the polls would have to be tied 5,000,000 to 5,000,000 before I walked in to vote. What are the chances of that happening? Please, stop telling me my "voice" can be heard, and that my vote will make a difference. This is a democracy, a single vote is worthless. MOD'S NOTE: You have no idea how Canadian democracy works.
#8739
OMG: Just got an email from feds about voting half an hour ago. More than half the information is useless because its dated two to four days ago.
#8738
OMG: Looking at Harper's "death stareeeee" I SERIOUSLY thought squinting his eyes made him look Asian. Any thoughts?
#8737
OMG: I hate when I drop Harry Potter references and the person I'm talking with does not catch them. God damn people! We're in university you should know this stuff!
#8736
OMG: UW is one of the most innovative universities in the country...and the best we can come up with as a cheer is "Water, water, water, loo, loo, loo?" Seriously? I was so embarrassed first year when I heard this.
#8735
OMG: So, I'm in AHS lounge. I was alone except for two other people, and as it's late, I decided to take a powernap. As I was falling asleep, I heard the two people start kissing and giggling, and then they left, leaving their laptops and cell phones behind. It's bad, but since I'm the only one in the lounge, I feel compelled to watch their stuff while they're having a quickie somewhere in BMH. I also have to pee, but I'm scared to go in the bathroom for fear of what I'll find.
#8734
OMG: I hate how everyone in our society just LOVES to get "offended" at non-significant things. Engineer in a bikini? OFFENDED!!! Someone said Asians tend to excel academically? OFFENDED!! Someone on the internet stereotyped muslims/brown/christians? Yep! Double offended!! Seriously people, take a chill pill and stop getting offended all the time. You know when it's appropriate to get offended??? When I bitch-slap you in front of your spouse or something, for example. Or when I piss on your midterm. Or spit in your face. That's what an offense is. For fuck's sake, get perspective on things!
#8733
OMG: I'm sorry, but I just refuse to vote Conservative. I do have a problem with the party and I'd feel as if my rights would be in danger/taken away. Harper wants to run Canada as if he's the leader of the GOP or the DBaggers south of the border, and well.. fuck them.
#8732
OMG: Environment 2 smelled like pot.
#8731
OMG: A summary of how first-past-the-post voting works, courtesy of Reddit.
#8730
OMG: It's a shame that whoever worked on these Unigirl Canada pictures sucks with Photoshop. Making them look so unrealistic and airbrushed kills the vibe that they're actually girls we might know.
#8729
OMG: Markham wants to change 14th Avenue's name!
#8728
OMG: When I see posts that haven't been rated yet, I try to guess how I think they will be voted in the long run. I then check back later and compare my guess with the results. I think I'm getting too good at this procrastination thing.
#8727
OMG: I am done first year. Sadly, I am not returning to UW in the fall, but have loved every second of my year here. I will miss you all, and there is about a 95% chance that I will still be a frequent visitor to this amazing website. Goodbye Waterloo. I will miss you.
#8726
OMG: Vote mob was amazing, glad to see so many people out!
#8725
OMG: 3/4 of my undergraduate career done! That means if I factor in a tentative stint in grad school, I'm finally halfway done my university career. Maybe. Hopefully. Possibly? Fuck.
#8724
OMG: 1. Just because I am a Conservative doesn't mean I am automatically against abortion or gay rights. Preposterous and offensive bullshit that's spread by the politicians. 2. Just because I am a Conservative doesn't mean I am against safety nets in welfare, food stamps, etc... It's the abuse and getting these taxpayer's money to the less deserved and the lazy fuckertards that we object to. 3. Democrats are the same coin as Republicans, it's just a different face, but same fucking coin. The older you get, the more you will realize how much of a farce that whole thing that politicians do in order to get people on defensive sides. Politicians suck, they are just in the business of making YOU believe (and vote) in their bullshit. 4.Conservatives go to college, believe in Evolution, and not Bible Thumpers you want to believe in order to hate us easier. Conservatives live in big cities and not just Wichita, Kansas, or (GASP!) cities in Texas -- which have many Democrats and Liberals living there. 5.We are not all Christians. 6.We are not all Religious 7.We respect women as much as Liberals--socially and politically.
#8723
Wednesday, April 20
OMG: You just lost the game.
#8722
OMG: I was on campus for the first time in a while recently and the Environment and Nanotech buildings both look awesome! Now, can we get an estimate on how much it'll take to re-model the exterior of MC and DP?
#8721
OMG: I'm sorry, but I just refuse to vote Liberal. It's not even that I have a problem with the party, but I don't know how people can stand looking at Ignatieff's FACE.
#8720
OMG: I don't understand why people don't like the political debates, Canadian political debates are actually really civilized and people on here seem to be discussing issues and such. I mean if this was an American board it would already be about a bunch of conspiracy theories and debating who is more like Hitler.
#8719
OMG: Topic rises to OMGUW collective consciousness > OMGUW becomes saturated with posts about topic > posts introduced complaining about excessive discussion of said topic > balance slowly shifts so there are more complaining than posts about the topic itself > last of either kind of post stops appearing > idiosyncrasies of campus life dominate OMG content until the cycle begins anew MOD'S NOTE: This.
#8718
OMG: If geese get you down, you can always watch this
#8717
OMG: There are 6+ pies in my kitchen. When I grow up, I want a househusband.
#8716
OMG: Is everyone incapable of taking a decent picture of Elizabeth May? The shot is either focused right on her double chin or she has her mouth hanging wide open in every picture.
#8715
OMG: New best time waster.
#8714
OMG: The Formula car/bikini picture controversy: some new facts and another point of view.
#8713
OMG: I've been exercising my right to vote all week! By the time the election comes, I'm gonna be so good at checking things off!
#8712
OMG: It's cool that you're politically motivated, and I do intend to vote, but stop inviting me to shit on facebook. There's an election, I get it, thanks.
#8711
Tuesday, April 19
OMG: I don't understand why everyone is complaining about all the political debates on this site. The interenet is a little biased in the sense that you can search for hours and still only find information with the SAME viewpoint. Personally I think the debates are a better way to stay informed, as they force you look at all the parties with a more open mind. As for the people who truly have no interest in politics, that's fine, just don't complain about the people who do.
#8710
OMG: I'm so curious which faculties the MODs are in. MOD'S NOTE: Environment and Science.
#8709
OMG: I know people are sick of election related posts but as a first time voter I've been trying to get as informed as possible and this video certainly helped. MOD'S NOTE: Amen.
#8708
OMG: I never gave a single s**t about voting in my life until I started raging about Hell and Robbers attempting to pull UBB. I hope more people will start voting for the sake of internet. Unless you want to look cool with your rocket stick and new smartphone with features your monthly bandwidth can't afford.
#8707
OMG: Forget the geese. *I* want to have a mating season.
#8706
OMG: Anyone else suddenly craving Celery?
#8705
OMG: Dear UW, couldn't you make at least one coin operated machine in the libraries? It's my second last day on campus, and I would like some overpriced juice.
#8704
OMG: I wish more people would rate their profs online. It makes course selections so much easier.
#8703
OMG: I'm loving the political debates on here! It's nice to know that students actually do care about the country that they live in. However these debates need to cool down a little. We're all Canadians and entitled to our opinions. Vote for whichever party you share the most common views with, and make this election count.
#8702
OMG: UW, UBC, McGill and RPI in semi finals for SC2 in the CSL. Water, Water, Water, Loo, Loo, Loo!
#8701
OMG: I just got attacked by a very vicious geese while I was walking by the path between DC and C2. Its massive fat belly against the back of my head did not feel good at all. Now I am traumatized for the rest of my life.
#8700
OMG: Pretty hip to be liberal right now eh? I mean, the seemingly infinite number of mega-hip blogs and assorted youtube videos about how terrible Harper & CO. are will CERTAINLY make me vote liberal. MOD'S NOTE: Ya! Don't give in to peer pressure!
#8699
OMG: I FIGURED IT OUT: OMG's are for the trolls, MCs are for the Desperates, ILUs are for the meek, OVERHEARDS are a good mix, and the Chat are the people with way too much time.
#8698
OMG: I knew I chose the right school when I heard the explicit version of "Get Low" playing in SLC after my first exam.
#8697
OMG: I am not sure if I want to like this because it is promoting voting, or hate it because it made my ears bleed.
#8696
OMG: Dear Politics post. You have made OMGUW not fun anymore. I understand the usefulness of debate but this is OMGUW not POLITICSUW. As such, I'm not coming back till May 3 when you all stop bitching and the fun posts return.
#8695
OMG: I got an email from someone looking for "Freelance Student Researcher from University of Waterloo" and it's asking me to recruit some people... Is this legit?
#8694
Monday, April 18
OMG: I'm an undecided voter, so I'm not bipartisan. I am looking at the statistics of past governments held by both Liberals and Conservatives and here is what I found: Brain Mulroney's Progressive Conservatives government: DEFICIT of $42 billion Jean Chretien's Liberal government: SURPLUS of five consecutive budgets Paul Martin's Liberal government: SURPLUS of $16 billion Stephen Harper's Conservative government: DEFICIT of $55 billion (so far) It seems to me that the Liberals know what they are doing when it comes to promoting a healthy economy. Can someone prove me wrong?
#8693
OMG: While staring out the 7th floor window of DP (not studying), I saw a girl struggling to carry a bag (looked full of books). Props to the guy who saw her and helped her with the bag!
#8692
OMG: The SLC should play some diverse music. Some old white stuff. Throw some indie or Christian rap in there. Gimme that Christian side hug!
#8691
OMG: My mom saw me looking at OMGUW over my shoulder and now she says she's going to "check it out." Thanks, ma! MOD'S NOTE: Hi mom!
#8690
OMG: Last term I asked why the "Incognito" marks haven't been cleaned off school buildings yet and all you bleeding hearts crucified me for expecting too much of the cleaning staff. Well, it's been 4 months now assholes, what's the excuse this time?
#8689
OMG: What to do in a goose attack, as circulated by the Dean of ENV to ENV.
#8688
OMG: I miss my buddies so much. To be honest, I wish it were more acceptable to give other guys a hug when we hang out again instead of saying "Hey!" and acting all macho about it.
#8687
OMG: Studying at DC today was a clear reminder as to why it's called Club DC... Often more socializing than studying on the main floor.
#8686
OMG: To the campus pizza delivery guy. I'm sorry we paid for the majority of the pizza in small coinage. We're poor, and really really hungry.
#8685
OMG: Let's all stop with the heated political debates. It's been a long four months and we're all venting our anger. I just wish I could hug someone right now.
#8684
OMG: When I think of the University of Waterloo's rebranding committee I imagine it to be exactly like the Ministry of Silly Walks from Monty Python.
#8683
OMG: SAE action: here is another thing you can do. Contact female professors (from a throwaway email account if you wish). They can very well protest the dean's ruling.
#8682
OMG: The lyrics of Lady Gaga's "Judas" are terrible. Firstly, just offensive to Christianity. And secondly, very poorly written. If this is what the work of modern day music geniuses look like, then music has no future.
#8681
OMG: Watch this video. Wait until 1:25. Awesome!
#8680
OMG: I wish my exams had questions like "Compare and Contrast these.."
#8679
OMG: Goose attack at wedding
#8678
OMG: If your underwear is hanging out, then don't complain if I'm looking. In fact, I'm gonna stare at you as much as I want, whether your underwear is hanging or not, whether you're a guy or a girl
#8677
OMG: For all of you struggling with exams: I believe in you.
#8676
OMG: Can someone please explain to me why the TVs on the treadmills at CIF have a channel that has been frozen on the movie Dragnet, starring Dan Akroyd and Tom Hanks, for the past 6 months?
#8675
OMG: Two sockets for every eight person table...really, Waterloo?
#8674
Sunday, April 17
OMG: This comic is really long, but if a conservative can read this and still vote conservative, then congrats you are really set in your ways.
#8673
OMG: I'm a straight girl that has spent the past hour watching lesbian porn. I wish I had a lesbian hookup during my time at University.
#8672
OMG: Looks like that high school next to us has got something to say.
#8671
OMG: This might be old, but what was with that BBC interview with Mike Lazaridis? I can understand not wanting to answer a question, but he was really unprofessional. There are better ways around uncomfortable interviews than just saying "turn the camera off."
#8670
OMG: I can't help but feel that, with UW's constantly bad exam schedules, we are set up for failure.
#8669
OMG: E5 feels like Minas Tirth. Especially when you climb the stairs in a golden morning or afternoon
#8668
OMG: My guilty pleasure: checking out all the hot asian girls in the DC library.
#8667
OMG: Never tell your friends and OMGUW something... either one or the other, because then they awkwardly confront you and ask if you wrote that.
#8666
OMG: Look at the post below this. Now back to me. Now back to the post below this - now back to me! Sadly, the post below is about a political party and will offer no helpful distraction from studying. But if the below post included a little more lesbian-nazi-sc2-zombi then you'd be in a good distracted from studying state. The ratings are now diamonds! I'm on dolphin.
#8665
OMG: I'm so amused by the Taco Bell "88% REAL BEEF!!!" ads on TV. What the hell is the 12% then?
#8664
OMG: God dammit, I wish it was still winter. Maybe then some of these crazy ass cyclists, complete with ball-hugging tights and goggles, would stay home.
#8663
OMG: To everyone who's super stressed out about life right now: Take a deep breath. Then, take out a whole sheet of lined paper, and make a list of all the good things going on around you. They can be big things or little things, it doesn't matter. You'll be surprised at how fast the list fills up and how good it makes you feel. Then stick it to your wall above your desk. When you're studying and you get to a concept/problem that's driving you up the wall, stop. Take a deep breath, and re-read your list. It helps me keep everything about school in perspective, and I hope it helps some of you too!
#8662
OMG: Women, for the love of god, cover yourself up. It is a major distraction to see underwear hanging out.
#8661
OMG: If you have to blow your nose during an exam, get up and ask for a tissue. Don't sniffle behind me for 2.5 hours
#8660
OMG: Found a Playboy between Fluid Mechanics and Neural Networks books.
#8659
OMG: Did anyone else see the two couples taking wedding pictures in DC? It was so cute.
#8658
OMG: I've always wanted to take a nap in one of those CS offices in DC. They look so cozy.
#8657
OMG: Over the past week, I've seen so many opinions expressed over the internet (OMGUW, Facebook, blogs...) about the decision to suspend the FSAE team. But do these opinions ever get to the people that need to hear them? Honestly, write a letter to the Dean's Office, start a petition, or do something to let the University know how you feel. It could help the FSAE team now, or it could change how decisions are made regarding these types of issues in the future. We should stop being so passive and start acting. Sent my letter yesterday.
#8656
OMG: Sometimes I wish I was still in high school. It was easier to get to know people in your classes, and I found that everyone was a lot less self-absorbed.
#8655
OMG: Thank you Liberals and NDP for letting me know how the Conservatives suck as a government. Now can you start telling me how you won't be the same?
#8654
OMG: Want to vote in K/W but won't be here for May 2? Go vote at the elections office NOW! 230 Regina Street North, just south of University Avenue, east of Laurier. You can vote in advance until April 26, 7 days a week. Bring photo ID and proof of address. They will probably be swamped on Monday (18th) and Wednesday (20th) for the Laurier and UW vote mobs, so you may want to avoid those times.
#8653
OMG: Let's face it people, the Conservatives are just going to win another minority government, there will be no more progress in this country for the next few years, and this election will just have been another waste of millions of taxpayers dollars
#8652
OMG: Campus police needs to enforce rules. No food in library = no food in library. No smoking near the building entrances = no to that shit too. If you can't understand this, then we should get your motherfucking ass arrested. I pay tuition & I wanna see rules on my campus.
#8651
OMG: PAC gym is so claustrophobic. Would be much better if there were windows and better ventilation. And treadmills not directly facing the wall.
#8650
OMG: It bothers me that the University is e-mailing the graduating students and asking for donations. I'm sorry but have I not already given you enough money the last 4 years for tuition?
#8649
OMG: I said goodbye to the friendly Tim Horton's employee in ML on Friday even though I never spoke to her before besides ordering coffee. She was just as nice as I thought she was. I think I'm ready to graduate.
#8648
OMG: Why is it that the older we get, the harder it is to make really good, close friends? I'm about to graduate and I feel like I didn't really make any substantial friendships (beyond just hanging out every once in a while) over my undergrad.
#8647
OMG: Once both MODs graduate, who is going to run this site?
#8646
OMG: Just turned on my computer in silent study and not only was there porn on the screen, but my speakers were on as well. I'm a female so a few people laughed, but now there is a guy 5 seats away winking at me.
#8645
Saturday, April 16
OMG: Right now the call is ABC, this fall it'll be ABL. Why do you think a federal Liberal government would be any better than the terrible Liberal government we have provincially?
#8644
OMG: Why is it so hard for Waterloo students to understand and abide by the law that prohibits smoking within 20 feet of an entrance?! I want to draw out a 20 foot radius from each and every entrance on campus so they will know.
#8643
OMG: Equifax has to be the dumbest thing ever. Their system is (at least) 8 months behind and they refuse to give you your credit score. Fuck these guys.
#8642
OMG: I saw two lesbians making out and feeling each other in DC! How HOT is that?
#8641
OMG: Am I the only one who gets a huge thrill out of writing exams? Even if I know i'm gonna fail, I get an adrenaline rush from knowing I have an exam to write.
#8640
OMG: I'd like to remind everyone that the official university statement is that the team was suspended due to the unauthorized photo shoot. So you can all go fuck yourselves with your little "university is anti-femininity" conspiracy theories.
#8639
OMG: I'd love to get a Lego role playing group going. That shit was awesome as a kid. Throw some D&D stuff, make up unique stories and settings on the fly, sounds like the perfect awesome!
#8638
OMG: I usually take out money from the bank for food once a month, did that today before going to DP. Went on a washroom break while studying at DP, came back to find my wallet had been stolen from my bag... Exams have not been going well for me and now I have to worry about food for the next month. I am so depressed. MOD'S NOTE: Hugs from the MODS. Maybe try food bank?
#8637
OMG: I'm at DP an every time I come to this site to procrastinate, I click on the Harper death stare link and watch that instead. This usually threatens me into studying again, so at least Harper's good for something!
#8636
OMG: I'm not sure what's worse: living in CLV North with a bunch of noisy kids or living in CLV South with a bunch of loud first years.
#8635
OMG: More and more it seems like the University Administration is taking it for granted that the undergraduates will just ignore all the shit they keep doing to us. Raising undergraduate tuition to pay for graduate students, stealing Fed Hall, impersonating the Math Graduate Committee, OLT, suspending the FSAE team... The sad part is, I'm not entirely sure if the University's assumptions are wrong. I would love for them to be proven wrong.
#8634
OMG: I don't understand why people are getting so exited about the UBC LipDub. Some of it's really cool, but some of it's not timed well and a little awkward. And I hated the beginning.
#8633
OMG: My dilemma for this election is wether to vote Green or NDP. The green rep in my riding sounds really awesome and has some sweet goals for my area, plus I want to support the green party in any way I can. However, when looking at who I want to run our country I'd prefer Layton. I was so set on Green, but now I'm doubting myself. MOD'S NOTE: WARNING THIS IS ANOTHER LIBERALLY-BIASED POST.
#8632
OMG: This morning at 1:30 I thought I would sit on a picnic table to just chill and calm my brain down after studying physics. Little did I know that the bench part was not attached to the table, so when I stepped on it, the bench came flying up and hit my face. FML
#8631
OMG: I love how the "ethnic" vote gets more media coverage than the student vote. Last time I checked, we were the future of this country, I think they should give us a little more consideration!
#8630
Friday, April 15
OMG: I think it's funny how people argue about which political party is better when in reality, they are all just going to feed you the same bullshit. Lets he honest. The conservatives suck, the liberals suck, the NDP suck even more, and the green party also sucks. You all look like a bunch of idiots. MOD'S NOTE: "It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried." - Churchill.
#8629
OMG: All of a sudden, the girl who was photographed in that infamous "racy car picture" is off the team?!
#8628
OMG: Students, be realistic- this country has a deficit. Where is the money going to come from that Ignatieff is proposing to give students $1000? it won't happen. He will have to take it from somewhere else, and that area will suffer.
#8627
OMG: I swear, doing an exam in PAC is just like being in a hospital. Whats with all the sick people?
#8626
OMG: MODs, I hope you understand that this site is not just some awesome OMG-type shit which we post & you filter, this site is also a forum for us, a place where we discuss, talk, vent, and bitch; a common survival/sanity for us. Take that in mind when you moderate posts. Thanks.
#8625
OMG: Do we have these on campus anywhere? coz Western have them & now I'm so pissed off.
#8624
OMG: Wow, even Fox News is reporting on the racy photo
#8623
OMG: If OMGUW inhabitants by IP addresses, man, you'll discover that only 6 people post & comment here. At the same time: they're all first year, on co-ops, grad students, females, gays, liberals, and conservatives.
#8622
OMG: I got an offer from a reputable investment bank. The payment is huge + amazing compensations + stock shares. 10 years of education finally paid off (BSc + MMath + PhD). Kids: Work hard. Education is a serious business.
#8621
OMG: I'm voting Pirate Party in this years election. They have a well founded platform, and I trust that their representatives will do a good job in Ottawa
#8620
OMG: So Western was recognized by Playboy as one of the top party schools in North America. Great, like I need another reason to be jealous of the students there. Oh well, back to DP to hit the books...
#8619
OMG: Is it just me or are all of the political parties bad this election season?
#8618
OMG: I'm all for youth voting and having as many people vote as possible, but I am against the mob mentality of liberal voting. Get involved because you care, and know whats important. Not because there's someone told you to.
#8617
OMG: Exam time just makes me want to vomit with fear.
#8616
OMG: There is douchebag who was kicking a goose at the SLC courtyard just to impress some girls he was with. Ever wonder why the geese are so vicious? This asshole and his two bimbos, that's what.
#8615
OMG: How do you calm your nerves in the hours before a big exam? I could use some tips
#8614
OMG: Very bad timing for an election. I was hoping OMGUW would be exam procrastination zone. But all I see if boring posts about politics.
#8613
OMG: As a graduating student, if I could leave any advice it would be this: Learn LaTeX and vim... Within a year your written assignments will take half as long to write and will look 20 times better.
#8612
OMG: That awkward moment when you're lying in bed texting someone and your phone decides to slip through your hands and attack your face.
#8611
OMG: Even though exams are stressful as hell and the buildings can be ugly as hell, I LOVE WATERLOO!
#8610
OMG: I've been slowly moving from Conservative to Libertarian in ideology. I'm afraid I have the radical left to thank for that - every time I open my mouth for debate, or to voice my opinions, I'm attacked personally, or I'm presented with ad hominem arguments and talking points. You've pushed me farther away.
#8609
OMG: I laughed at Harper's death stare :) Thanks MODS! MOD'S NOTE: No problem! We thank KL for linking us to it!
#8608
OMG: If there's anyone out there in love with somebody, but is too shy or feels that there's not time since the term is ending. Go tell them, tell them now. If they love you they will be more than willing to work things out. Who knows maybe they feel the same way :)
#8607
OMG: Oh good, Harper wants to nullify student votes. What a piece of shit.
#8606
OMG: Fellow classmates: please pee before you write your exam. It's really annoying to have 6 people needing to empty their bladders in a 2hr exam.
#8605
OMG: Politics. Elections. Exams. Geese. Screw all that, has anyone been following the most popular tournament in the world? Champions League, who's ready for Barca-Real Madrid?
#8604
OMG: I recommend studying in Waterloo Park instead of a gloomy library booth...much more energizing!
#8603
OMG: Japan, one month after.
#8602
OMG: Because I am on co-op in a different province, I will not be able to participate in our vote mob. But Waterloo: I don't care who the hell you want to vote for, just vote. Show our leaders and the candidates in Kitchener-Waterloo that we students have a voice.
#8601
OMG: Why is it that my physics final is in 17 hours, and i just discovered robot unicorn :(
#8600
OMG: I feel like voicing my political views on anything is grounds for people mindlessly bashing away at me. This is not how I see democracy. Some of the comments on this site are disgusting; voting for a party does not make someone inferior to you.
#8599
OMG: 20 minutes into my exam I had to take a shit. Most uncomfortable two hours of my life.
#8598
OMG: After watching the political debate, I just hope either party: NDP or Liberals make it. No thank you Conservatives :/
#8597
OMG: It is taking every fibre of my being not to title word documents things like "stupid fucking piece of shit essay" or "exam question from hell that i wish i could slowly torture to death"
#8596
OMG: I may be a Conservative voter, but I was very impressed with Jack Layton in the debates. I personally thought his proposals were insane (spend spend spend, all business is evil!), but I thought his arguments were clear and well-practiced, and he honestly believed in everything he says. If I was simply voting on which leader I trust the most, I would vote NDP.
#8595
OMG: I think I've serviced my formula 1 car at least three times now using that engineering picture as inspiration. Thanks to the sponsors for making this all possible!
#8594
OMG: Fooled by the brilliant shining sun on Tuesday, I attempted to study outside and battled with the furiously raging wind for awhile. Much love and thanks to the two people who rushed to help when my binder was literally blown open and papers were ripped out by the wind!
#8593
OMG: I don't have time to do laundry because of exams so I just spray on more perfume and wear dirty clothes.
#8592
Thursday, April 14
OMG: Bad shit that Harper did. Please get informed and vote! MOD'S NOTE: WARNING, THIS IS A LIBERAL-BIASED POST.
#8591
OMG: So there was lots of talk about the English debate... but did anyone watch the French debate? :)
#8590
OMG: Does anyone else have any exam superstitions/good luck charms? I have a sweater that I always wear because I do really well when I'm wearing it.
#8589
OMG: Pissed about the puritanical Formula I decision? Remember, money talks. Call/email each one of their sponsors and tell them you'll be boycotting their products until Waterloo overturns its decision
#8588
OMG: Here is yet another reason not to vote for Harper.
#8587
OMG: I thought Ignatieff was repetitive, insincere and really talked down to the Canadian people. I think it is funny that he thinks Harper doesn't "trust the Canadian people." To me, it is the liberal ideology that says we don't trust the provinces to manage health care. We don't trust Canadians to be in control of their own pension planning. We don't trust businesses to succeed and invest and hire Canadians if we let them operate in a low tax environment. We don't trust Canadians to make their own choices about how to raise their preschool children. It is the liberals who don't trust Canadians and completely underestimate our intelligence. MOD'S NOTE: As Harper would say it, "That's simply not true!"
#8585
OMG: One of my TA's just emailed the entire class asking for whoever borrowed her mechanical pencil during today's exam to please get in touch with her so she can make arrangements to get it back. That must be some pencil, no? Perhaps I am ignorant to the existence of such an awe-inspiring pencil?
#8584
OMG: Keep on studying hard nerds of Waterloo, you all make my heart happy :)
#8583
OMG: The Record ran a story on the Formula SAE suspension. They managed to dig up the picture. MOD'S NOTE: Any sexy ladies/gentlemen want to pose for an OMGUW calender?
#8582
OMG: Epic Rap Battle of History delayed one week. Infinite sadness :(
#8581
OMG: In case you missed the election leader debate, there's a video on YouTube.
#8580
OMG: I almost cried when I had to solve 2 equations 2 unknowns during the econ 101 exam. Its been a while ever since I took a math course. Oh mathematics how I miss thee
#8579
OMG: Laurier roommates are the worst! They don't study but just make noise all day long when others are trying to study!
#8578
OMG: I'll be coming to UW next year for grad school, and I'm f'ing glad I found this site before I get there... because it's awesome. Good job UW students
#8577
OMG: When's your last exam, MODs? WE SHOULD HAVE AN OMGUW PARTY MOD'S NOTE: Just finished! ;)
#8576
OMG: Dana Porter smells like stress and a lack of shower action. Please shower for everyone's sake!
#8575
OMG: Heard a girl on the bus yesterday call the bus driver a "fucking asshole" because he wouldn't let her get off at the front door while a large crowd of people was trying to make its way onto the bus. Way to be a huge bitch. It's not like he was trying to make things easier for everyone else, or anything.
#8574
OMG: Goal for this weekend: drink, go to phils, find a hot guy, make out with hot guy. be ready boys ;)
#8573
OMG: As I was sitting down to write my SOC101 exam last night, they were calling out which sections my class could sit in, sections 1 through 7, but as policy they stated every number from 1 to 7. The guy diagonally across from me said "If this was an engineering exam, they would've said 1-7." I was really hurt. It's people like you that stop this university from being spirited because you're too focused on competing with other faculties.
#8572
OMG: Paying for spring term tuition with Internet Online Banking is as easy as 1-2-3. My bank account goes empty as fast as 3-2-1.
#8571
OMG: Watching playoff hockey has been my biggest and most successful motivator to study this exam season.
#8570
OMG: I'm graduating this term and I still don't know how to ride a bike.
#8569
OMG: I feel obligated to watch people's stuff when they leave for a bit so it doesn't get stolen. But I want to leave and you've been gone awhile. I'd feel so bad if it was stolen. Hurry up!!
#8568
Wednesday, April 13
OMG:
To whoever stole my bike: this is your last chance to return it before I'm gone for the summer. Do the right thing!
#8567
OMG:
While browsing the new UW homepage I tried to click on a link labelled "Life at Waterloo". The page came up blank.
#8566
OMG:
After the leader debate, I think I'm going to vote ABI - anything but Ignatieff.
#8565
OMG:
Engineers are not allowed to race their car because of a racy picture of one of the members in a bathing suit.
#8564
OMG:
A poll ater db8, conducted by Ipsos Reid for Global National, showed that 42% of voters thought Harper won, 25% for Layton, 23% for Iggy, 2% for Duceppe. Foreshadowing for the actual election?
#8563
OMG:
7 HOURS before my managerial accounting exam. SO stressed. Last term class average in the 50s. What kind of arts program has a 50 something average course?
#8562
OMG:
I know you're not supposed to post names, but L***** who works at SLC Tim Horton's is the nicest and kindest person you will ever meet. I love her and its sad I am leaving for summer tomorrow :(
#8561
OMG:
My posts are so potent that every time I click submit, I think about poor girl MOD who can get pregnant by just reading them. MOD's NOTE: I hope you have a good job, 'cause this baby mama's gonna need support.
#8560
OMG:
Every time I read a MOD'S NOTE I immediately think that it comes from girl MOD. Girl MOD, are you actually more witty than boy MOD? MOD's NOTE: I am obliged to tell you that we are both equally as witty. Off the record, yes. Absolutely. I am more witty.
#8559
OMG:
The only way the leaders of this country would pee in their pants is when every student goes out and votes.
#8558
OMG:
4 years of university. I still have no fucking clue how to study.
#8557
OMG:
I've been at UW nearly 4 years and the one thing I've learned how to do properly is use chopsticks.
#8556
OMG:
Hey OMGUW kiddos, how about an OMGUW meeting right after the exams, on 22nd or 23rd? We could make OMGUW spirit real, comment who wants to join, I'll even make an FB page about it, and reveal my identity, even though some of you know already.
#8555
OMG:
Guys of UW, it's too late in the term to be asking girls out. We're probably going to be miles apart by the time the term ends-next week. If there's a girl that catches your eye, you can still keep in touch over the summer, but don't plan on starting a relationship now.
#8554
OMG:
I go to Western, and I read this site daily. It's hilarious.
#8553
OMG:
Just found out a friend of a friend at UW committed suicide recently. If exams/life/relationships/etc. have you down, don't stress, life gets better!
#8552
OMG:
I've noticed that a good portion of you misunderstand the Canadian free speech, or specifically, think that Canada has the same level of American free speech. In the US, you can say out loud: "fuck Chinese" or "fuck white people". Furthermore, it is unconstitutional to get sued (by First Amendment). In Canada, once you say it, you've just committed a hate speech crime (by Canadian Human Rights Act).
#8551
OMG:
Studying for sociology and all I can think of is "wow, this is a bunch of made up bullshit."
#8550
OMG:
First years ending and there's a good chance im going to flunk out of my program. I dont think i was ready for university and that was my fault. The idea of a year off is scary yet exciting. Has anyone else here taken a year off? Was it a good or bad experience?
#8549
OMG:
To anyone who wrote the BIOL 139 exam in PAC yesterday: I consumed a large quantity of dried apricots this morning, ignorant of the effects. I am deeply sorry.
#8548
OMG:
It makes me crazy when able-bodied people use the automatic doors for disabled people. You've got working body parts - use them while you can!
#8547
OMG:
I found blood on my pillow!! I think its just the routine of my pimples exploding.
#8546
OMG:
During exams time, gamers are so depressed they are watching videos on YouTube because they miss it so badly!! Isn't watching gaming videos on YouTube almost the same as actually playing the game?!
#8545
OMG:
Dear undergrads, please finish your exams so I can mark them and go back home. Oh and GOOD LUCK!
#8544
OMG:
I never used to give a fuck about politics, but because every single godforsaken post on here is either about geese or how Conservatives are all pure evil, I would like to renounce democracy altogether. Let's bring back the monarchy and stop the constant, incessant bitching.
#8543
OMG:
Why is "mods" always capitalized? If it's an acronym I am unaware. MOD's NOTE: We have a sense of entitlement about capital letters.
#8542
OMG:
I don't read political OMG's.. it just reminds me of two blonde Laurier girls fighting over which latte is better.
#8541
Tuesday, April 12
OMG: Our nano engineers made the smallest version of Colbert!
#8540
OMG: 48÷2(9+3) = 2 or 288?
#8539
OMG: The time will come when government will let universities set their own fees, Hamdullahpur said, and when that happens, if Waterloo is visibly “a different university from our peers”, it’ll be able to generate the income it needs.
#8538
OMG: Maybe if one of the RIM bosses wasn't trying to by a hockey team half the year, they'd actually beat Apple.
#8537
OMG: WHY are there so many elections? First it's FEDs, now the country! Come on man! I look forward to the day when all the OMGs be OMG-based once again
#8536
OMG: To the conservatives complaining about all the pro liberal posts on this site. Instead of complaining and wining about it post some of your own or debate us you pansies. Are you so scared you'll lose? After all it seems reality has a well known liberal bias.
#8535
OMG: Attention all Wilmot South residents. There is a goose in the courtyard that viscously attacks for no apparent reason. Be careful and walk even further away. Speaking from experience
#8534
OMG: OMGUW is simply reinforcing the stereotype that math and engineering creates more closed-minded, black/white thinkers, while arts creates open-minded, liberal thinkers. Ergo, the ridiculous number of conservatives here compared to any other university.
#8533
OMG: Since Friday, I've been: panic, fap, panic, fap repeat.
#8532
OMG: Who put those weird symbol posters on the first floor windows at St.Pauls? I heard people decoded them on microsoft word and they said things like "OMG UW" and "Honk honk honk honk." Was this done by the site as advertising or something? MOD'S NOTE: Not us! But whoever is doing that, amazing!
#8531
OMG: I'm sick at all the barking at MODs. Long time ago, when I was n00b here, I used to bark at MODs too. I called them bitches, motherfuckers, fucktards etc. After a while of growing up, I realized that I'm wrong, rude, and idiot. I should'nt take my rage on MODs; they provide us with this awesome website, for motherfuckin sake! I hope all of you who bark at them in the comment, can realize you're wrong. MOD'S NOTE: Hearts :)
#8530
OMG: I love shitting my pants because I have one exam on Monday and 2 exams on Tuesday three hours apart from each other. Love you Waterloo!
#8529
OMG: Next Epic Rap Battle is Wednesday, WOOT MOD'S NOTE: Yesss!
#8528
OMG: I had just sat down in the PAC when some proctor says "You can't leave your bag in the middle of the isle!" I hadn't even taken off my coat, and my bag was already half under my table
#8527
OMG: This one's to all the students that are kicking the crap out of their exams, or having the crap kicked out of them by exams. You're awesome. Sleep will come eventually. Until then, throw the next person you see a smile, a wink, or an awesome high-five. They just might need it... and maybe you do too.
#8526
OMG: Dear Geog 101 Prof, I would like to defer my exam as it takes place on a religious holiday. It's called the playoffs. Thanks, Habs Fan
#8525
OMG: Excuse me, professor, but how am I supposed to write an hour long essay while the girl sitting behind me is coughing like a fucking fire alarm? Jesus Christ, people.
#8524
OMG: I want to address the fighter jet issue for those who are uneducated on it: The conservatives purchased a long range bomber type jet (F-35). This jet does not meet Canadian needs. First off, we have a need for dual engine aircraft for flying over the arctic due to risk of engine failure stranding a pilot. Second, due to the nature of our missions, we don`t need long range bombers, we need interceptors. Learn your facts or gtfo.
#8523
OMG: Studying for an exam for a week. Night before and still haven't covered all of the material.
#8522
OMG: I don't know how to feel about the geese who have decided to take up residence outside the SLC.
#8521
OMG: For those who about how the Mods should be unbiased and not share their political views on their website, I have a solution! We should be like the Harper Government and do background checks of all posters on facebook. If you are in a picture with friends from Laurier, you're banned from the site!
#8520
OMG: People, stop making such a big deal about the MODs and their political stance. They have as much right as any of you to take on a political stance. At least they're not censoring posts that disagree with them (which include mine), for which they have my respect.
#8519
OMG: Taking the elevator to go up ONE floor? When the flight of stairs is right there beside you? It isn't inexcusable but I doubt all the instances I've observed are a reasonable use.
#8518
OMG: Next fall term, lets hold a new FLYERS contest?
#8517
OMG: Having trouble getting girls to go home with you? Get a puppy or kitten. Increases your success by 578%.
#8516
OMG: MODS, you should take the ILUs and make a song like the Discovery Channel Intro: 'Boom de-yada Boom de-yada...' MOD'S NOTE: Such a great idea! UWFCC?
#8515
OMG: FYI, asking girls out and trying to pick up during exams doesn't work. It's not necessarily that we don't want to, it's just that, well, it's exams.
#8514
OMG: There are too many acrynoms on this page.
#8513
Monday, April 11
OMG: For a good laugh any time of day: Christian Heritage Party of Canada. Seriously, they want to place a moratorium on any immigration from Muslim nations, restore Capital Punishment... they make the Tory ideology look Liberal :p
#8512
OMG: I found this while searching for semi-related stuff, and couldn't help but think how true it is. I hope some people will benefit from reading it
#8511
OMG: To the annoying people who talked constantly in the REV caf. I don't care that you were talking, but your conversation was so banal. Your nonchalant use of the term "Faggot" was not appreciated either. Please find more interesting things to talk about, so next time I have to listen to your banter, I'm at least not bored and annoyed.
#8510
OMG: I really wish the MODS weren't so politically biased. Or just less presence all together. We're not coming to hear their input
#8509
OMG: It took me until fourth year to learn that IRS referred to Iron Ring Stag and not the Internal Revenue Service.
#8508
OMG: Can we have a contest where the prize is to be a MOD of OMGUW for 24 hours? I'm dead serious :D
#8508
OMG: The UW Administration is taking over Fed Hall for catering as of 2012; they aren't renewing the lease when students paid for the building to be built. We need to fight this bullcrap. Check it out.
#8507
OMG: Priorities, priorities. Canada is too awesome.
#8506
OMG: I'm starting to get really irritated by the ramblings of everyone and then the overly liberal love coming from the MODs. Stop shoving your own political beliefs down other's throats; we live in a free and democratic society. Let people choose for themselves who they want.
#8505
OMG: Nothing like procrastinating with Wikipedia. Today is the "I see dead people" kid's birthday!

OMG: Sometimes I wonder how bad some of the filtered comments are, then I remember the filtered ones I post while drunk and horny.
#8503
OMG: Today I had a quick Skype call with my friend from Queens, I kept it silent by leaving my headphones in and not talking, but I was making a lot of silly faces and probably looked pretty weird. Sorry to the people at Dana Porter who were probably trying to study and found me distracting.
#8502
OMG: Here's hoping for a Vancouver/Montreal Stanley Cup Final :)
#8501
OMG: Over a week ago I sent out an email to each of the political parties inquiring about how they can change this nation for the better. So far, only the NDP have responded to me. The reply addressed what I was asking for, linked me to their platform, and not only promised to deliver, but gave a time frame within which they seek to deliver. That's an attitude I'd like to see more of!
#8500
OMG: MODs, forcing your liberal opinions on people is disgusting. You're not supposed to be biased. MOD'S NOTE: ORLY?
#8499
OMG: Dear CS students: Hitting 'tab' to indent your code is a sin. Instead, please use a fixed number of 'space' characters. Good luck, CS Prof.
#8498
OMG: I feel that because I am a good looking girl many UW students in my classes have chosen to ignore me, not sit near me etc. I am friendly, I don't bite. In my three years at science at Waterloo it has been very difficult to make friends. What's with the hate UW?
#8497
OMG: Why are canned soft drinks 50 cents at the science C&D and $1 at the math C&D, yet, the math one has more customers!
#8496
OMG: I wonder if our libraries have policies against bringing books into the washrooms with you to read when you're on the shitter. I don't have a smartphone so I still resort to paper entertainment whilst doing my business.
#8495
OMG: People bashing the political views of others are no better than those who bash the religious views of others. I know political views are not a religion, but calling someone a 'winy liberal,' or a 'redneck conservative,' is not real debate. Be reasonable, people!
#8494
OMG: I get why there is so much love for liberals on this site due to the support for ignatieff wanting to give more money for education; however, that is not the only issue we are voting on. 1. Corporate tax decrease...we are still not completely out of the recession and by lowering it, more corporations will want to invest in our economy and create more jobs. 2. Fighter jets, most people think they are a horrible idea but don't know why we have them. Russia has come into Canada's land in the Artic. It is simply a deterrent to keep them from taking that land. 3. Support to the criminal system - more funding has been given since it costs lots of money to hold people. liberals want to rehabilitate people and allow them into society as soon as possible to save money. if you commit a crime, u should pay the full price. do u really want rapists out on parole? 4. The liberal budget is ridiculous. we are not fully out of the recession yet, but we need to stop spending since our budget is too high. by reducing the corporate tax, jobs will still be created. it is now that the nation needs to start saving before the budget is run up too high.
#8493
OMG: Well I've compared platforms, candidates, poll statistics, leaders, and party policies. Unless someone does something stupid and ideological in the next 3 weeks to change my mind, I'll be voting Conservative. If they play their cards right, they might actually get a majority this time... and a majority is all I want, along with a smaller government.
#8492
OMG: This morning a saw the cutest little skunk sauntering along SCH! Warning: Don't get too close to the bushes. :)
#8491
OMG: This is true school spirit - and for a bigger cause!
#8490
Sunday, April 10
OMG: I am so happy you updated everything Mods! It was well needed. MOD'S NOTE: You're welcome!
#8489
OMG: So when Harper wins his minority (and it will happen) are all the liberal cry babies going to disappear from this site? MOD'S NOTE: No, we run this site.
#8488
OMG: I really dislike living with kids from abroad; it's not because they're from abroad, but they're generally the ones that are spoiled rotten by their families, so a lot of them they come here and treat everyone like crap. I have lived with two in a row that are absolutely filthy, won't pitch in for shared supplies, have stolen food or broken shared plates or utensils without even so much as a 'sorry'... and one of them had the nerve to yell at me when I asked her to take out her own putrefying mass of garbage (after she had made/ordered a giant feast for her friends). Maybe she thinks her roommates are just paid live-in servants that her dad bought for her? Ugh.
#8487
OMG: This girl in ECON102 sends out a mass email 3 times asking us to tell her the exam format and sends out ANOTHER one telling us she figured it out herself
#8486
OMG: Statement regarding affiliation with a faculty outside of engineering. Justification of amount of respect deserved for studying in said faculty. Reference to negatively impacting encounter with an engineering student/s/. Statement generalizing the behaviour for the entire faculty. *Optional* Slanderous closing words.
#8484
OMG: I could do without people calling Dana Porter: DP, all the time. Am I the only one who finds that acronym suggestive?
#8483
OMG: I tried to get free Tacos but apparently google maps tricked me into thinking there was one on university and weber.
#8482
OMG: Why are people so anti-conservative? What's the better choice, liberal? Ignatieff will just fuck us over. Last time I checked, Harper got us through a recession with little damage, and he hasn't fucked up anything. Why change something thats already good? MOD'S NOTE: Please get informed.
#8481
OMG: Admit it: I'm not the only one who brings my laptop into the bathroom stall.
#8480
Saturday, April 9
OMG: UW wireless prevented us from updating all day. :(
#8479
OMG: I'm surprised by the amount of support to the Conservatives on this website.
#8478
OMG: To the assholes that moved the REV West study lounge desks outside, spent the whole afternoon screaming and otherwise disrupting the entire quad, and then left the desks outside as you left for your CS 100 exam; learn some respect.
#8477
OMG: OMGUW, feed me... I am so deprived and worthless without your updates.
#8476
OMG: I travelled around Hagey Hall looking for a friggin classroom to study in, only to find they are all full of glitter and trophies and costumes. Since when is it a good idea to let small children fucking practice dancing in our buildings during finals and take up all of our rooms?
#8475
OMG: Anytime I get nervous before I have an exam in the PAC, I just stare at the word "Cum" on the school emblem above the gym doors until I laugh, then I feel fine :)
#8474
OMG: This year, seven people died at Queens, York was on fire a few times (not to mention a lesbian got beaten up), U of T and ryerson trashed their dorms to disrepair, Western had freaky snow storms and Waterloo... nothing but a few posters. Well I rather be that than anything else... No news is good news to me.
#8473
OMG: Free For All Friday was LAME!
#8472
OMG: Stop being so ignorant and learn how Canadian politics work. You don't vote for the Prime Minister. You know why I'm not voting for Stephan Harper? Vecause I can't. I'm voting for the individual in my riding that will best represent the constituents of Kitchener-Waterloo.
#8471
OMG: While I'll happily date a girl of any background, this school really isn't kind to guys like me with a little case of jungle fever.
#8470
OMG: How can a post be rated 4.98 by 9 people? It doesn't make mathematical sense! Waterloo math is playing with me, isn't it?
#8468
OMG: I have this overwhelming sense of procrastination right now. What for? Not exams, but for all the stuff I need to download off DC++ and burn onto dvds before I leave rez.
#8467
OMG: I downloaded an app that doesn't let me on websites for a certain amount of time while i study. Now the only way I have left to procrastinate is by taking extended bathroom breaks.
#8466
OMG: At first I thought to myself "WTF" when I found out my friend takes adderall to help study. It seems like cheating to me - one is taking a performance enhancing drug. However, I consume caffeine every day... what's everyone's thoughts, UW?
#8465
OMG: Seriously are all engineer's rude? I know there has to be a few that are polite and awesome to talk to, but all the engineer's I've had the misfortune of meeting are rude as hell! I can honestly say I am sick and tired of their holy than thou attitude. Noone gives a shit that your in engineering! We all work hard to get the grades we want and to get in to our programs, just because your in engineering doesn't mean your better than anyone else.
#8464
OMG: I really wish people would stop making reference to "friday". It's annoying, not funny at all, and uncreative.
#8463
OMG: People, our reputation is under attack on Reddit. Let's show 'em some OMGUW rage!
#8462
OMG: Just finished one exam and now starting another one. I hate UW with their stupid consecutive exams
#8461
OMG: Last time I checked pedestrians had the right of way. I shouldn't be getting a "WTF are you doing" gesture from a passenger in a car running a red light infront of a police officer.
#8460
OMG: You gotta watch this! Especially if you're a muslim or have anything to do with rebecca black :D
#8459
OMG: Man I wish there was an awesome coffee place around campus. A real coffee place, not starbucks or williams or timmies. A place that served real coffee. Somewhere with a chill atmosphere and comfortable chairs. Yeah that's right, I want the Central Perk from Friends.
#8458
OMG: To everyone who bitches about "Ignorant Leftists" who have been "biased by left-wing media and professors": why don't you just provide a rebuttal? Information is readily accessible thanks to this thing called "The Internet".
#8457
OMG: Can someone explain to me why Pita Factory includes Tuna Salad on their veggie menu? Last time I checked, tuna was a fish.
#8456
OMG: If you want the conservatives out of office, check this out. Vote Strategically people. Anything is better than Harper at this point.
#8455
OMG: Jesus Christ. So I guess anything that's against Harper isn't welcome in this country anymore. Good to know.
#8454
OMG: Beware the goose couple on the 2nd floor of Optometry. The male is poised and ready to strike.
#8453
OMG: To all the guys who use the DC library washrooms: If you're going to use the stall as a urinal, fine, but don't piss all over the seat.
#8452
OMG: The Conservative platform is out. I didn't look to closely, but I didn't see a single thing regarding students.
#8451
OMG: To all of those on OMG UW who post with a consistent name when arguing, I salute you. Putting a name, especially if it's connected to the real you shows you're willing to stand by the shit you say. So props to RL, FloralWraith, CorruptED, and hell, even E. Plus all the others who I can't name off the top of my head.
#8450
OMG: Nothing like listening to a boring lecture CD with the soundtrack for Inception playing in the background. Winning.
#8449
OMG: I was walking down the stairs in Needles Hall and passed a cute guy. In my attempt to look up from the stairs and smile at him, I almost wiped out. Thanks for impairing my love life Needles Hall!
FREE FOR ALL FRIDAY! #1
Friday, April 8
It's free for all friday! Use this post to talk about anything you guys want. Remember no names, no personal attacks. We will be watching (and of course, joining in on the discussion)! Have fun! :)
#8448
OMG: I've been avoiding OMGUW during this election because I know I'll waste too much time arguing with people who are unwilling to question the political beliefs they were brought up with, or too lazy to do anything more than a vague look at which parties claim vague things that go against their history and vote based on that. MOD'S NOTE: But we miss you :(
#8447
OMG: Saw a dead goose on keats way. I hate being hissed by those damn things more then the next guy, but seeing a dead one makes me sad.
#8356
OMG: Waterloo got 5th in 2010 in the Putnam. 1. California Institute of Technology 2. Massachusetts Institute of Technology 3. Harvard University 4. University of California, Berkeley 5. University of Waterloo Suck it Yale.
#8355
OMG: I'm really frustrated with all these anti-Conservative posts. I understand why a lot of people don't like Tories but they do have there positive points, too. One is this, while many other countries including the United States are still struggling with economic problems after a brief depression, Canada has already almost forgotten it happened. Who made that possible? The Tories who spend money on infrastructure to create jobs. I know that there's only so long we can continue doing this before we need to focus more socially but are we at a place where we can safely do that yet? Looking at the rest of the world still struggling I can't say yes.
#8354
OMG: MODs pretty please with sugar on top, UPDATE FREAKIN MORE FREQUENT. I'm on energy drink & I can punch you down your pants. MOD'S NOTE: We're not sure if we like you punching down our pants?
