Annoyance and Comic Relief (Not Dabashi Edition)

By: Meghan Mannion at 12:36 am

I am annoyed. Seeing as it’s finals week, I bet may of you are too.

Quick question for those of you familiar with Butler: why is it that the one time I actually come to the library and leave a notebook and two paperbacks, they have disappeared by the next day, but laptops, hardcover books, food, clothes, and other items of actual value are always left safely unattended–mainly so people can stake out desks for days on end?

Anyway, if any of you listened to Hillary’s speech in West Virginia tonight, you may share my annoyance with the damage she continues to inflict on the Democratic party. Senator Clinton, please stop bragging about winning swing states. This is not the general election- and you really haven’t been winning them by as much as both camps had previously anticipated. Bottom line: metrics do not lie! And by the metrics, the primary should be over by now.

Speaking of annoying people on TV-one person who frequently makes me want to throw things at the screen is Bill O’Reilly. So, when my friend shared this video, I couldn’t help but extend this opportunity to laugh at him making a fool of himself to all of you. Please enjoy!
