People at Middlebury College are doing something nerdy and lame?

Hurting 2, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:27 (eighteen years ago)

They look like they're enjoying themselves.

People at Middlebury in College are doing something nerdy and lame?

John Justen, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:29 (eighteen years ago)

Can't they just get high and sleep on the quad?

Catsupppppppppppppp dude 茄蕃, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:30 (eighteen years ago)

but what would happen to the snitch???

"You come up with a technique to hold the broom so it doesn't get in the way," said sophomore Matthew Labunka, captain of the Hungry, Hungry Hippogriffs. "It's kind of a fun sport. It attracts a different type of player. It's good for both boys and girls."

deeznuts, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:34 (eighteen years ago)

people need to take more naps.

lolbritishes (wait... they aren't British?)

milo z, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:39 (eighteen years ago)

people need to not go to 4-year colleges by default

at least these kids are getting outdoors and running around, I guess.
I can't remember the last time I did that that wasn't necessary for traveling from point A to B.

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:41 (eighteen years ago)

these guys need to take up a neat-o sport like dodgeball

gabbneb, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:47 (eighteen years ago)

or four-square

milo z, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:48 (eighteen years ago)

I love the fact that white people have to go on the Internet to complain about white people. Also, there are several Asians in that group photo so there. Furthermore, if you are the bad-ass girl second from right in the penultimate photo, or the redhead in the middle, EFF THE HATERS, I LOVE YOU, CALL ME.

They should play ^^^

Midd kids aren't really known for being, you know, "middle" class.

gabbneb, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:49 (eighteen years ago)

I think this thread should be devoted to coming up with alternate ways to entertain yourself for a couple of months outside of ski season in Middlebury fucking Vermont.

gabbneb, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:50 (eighteen years ago)

maybe shooting fish in a barrel?

gabbneb, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:51 (eighteen years ago)

Hold a vigil until Phish play live again?

Xpost to Jordan S.: I don't have anything against you but your whole thing of repeating your own uninteresting comments is older than Andy Rooney's dick.

Dimension 5ive, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:52 (eighteen years ago)

I will say that the only guy I know who went to Middlebury is a reformed biker/alcoholic turned farmer, and an awesome dude. I don't know his opinion on Quidditch.

Hurting 2, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:54 (eighteen years ago)

people in New England playing outmoded lawn game shocker

gabbneb, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:54 (eighteen years ago)

says the dude who just made a "call me interesting girl in picture" comment xpost.

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:56 (eighteen years ago)

What's your point?

Dimension 5ive, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:57 (eighteen years ago)

maybe you should keep quiet about old schticks.

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:58 (eighteen years ago)

You've been rocking that whole "Hey you guys I already said something on this topic you guys!" thing on several threads, just calm down already.

And if you know that girl's phone number, seriously, hook a brother up.

Dimension 5ive, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 01:58 (eighteen years ago)

i bet she's into magical books.

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 14 November 2007 02:04 (eighteen years ago)

That would be fine by me.

(Oh wait I am already happily married with three kids, okay never mind. But in college my wife kind of looked like this...and she still does. But no way would she have played Quidditch.)

Dimension 5ive, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 02:07 (eighteen years ago)

I like where this is going.

That's kind of surprising.

ok playing quidditch is 400x cooler than whatever Dimension and Jordan are doing on this thread

am studying for test in challenging class.

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 14 November 2007 05:06 (eighteen years ago)

the game sounds fun enough but idk the whole cape/broom/league thing is obnoxious.

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 14 November 2007 05:07 (eighteen years ago)

It's a shame Holes never made a splash with the college crowd.

Coming soon: the Quidditch Negro Leagues

Mark C, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 11:10 (eighteen years ago)

i don't really understand how a sport that was invented as a fictional set piece / plot engine would actually be fun to play for ANYONE in, you know, real life, if it was stripped of its fandom association.

Elmo, it might be fun if you could fly.

(but srsly, the whole snitch thing fucks it up. Why bother with the entire rest of the game if there is one single winning manoeuvre that will insta-pwn? Stupid JK Rowling)

Mark C, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 14:12 (eighteen years ago)

yeah, the snitch thing is pretty idiotic as far as it working as an actual game. makes a neat plot device, tho.

and if i could fly, quidditch might be fun, but it's the last thing i'd want to do! i mean, fuck! i can fly on a broom! fuck a snitch.

elmo argonaut, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 14:18 (eighteen years ago)

ILM to Middlebury College: STOP SNITCHIN

Dimension 5ive, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 14:49 (eighteen years ago)

(but srsly, the whole snitch thing fucks it up. Why bother with the entire rest of the game if there is one single winning manoeuvre that will insta-pwn? Stupid JK Rowling)

It's worth a load of points but not necessarily always enough to win the match. Middlebury College nutters seem to have twigged that it was overvalued as they've reduced its value from 150(?) points to 50.

Why bother winning 8 rounds against Tyson if he can just knock you out in the 9th?
