It wasn't a great written article. It jumped around too much, and lost the main focus, but I do agree. College Park sucks. My brother goes there now and I can tell what a crappy place that is. One of these days they are going to burn the whole place to the ground and maybe that can start again with some better urban planning. mmmmmmm...urban planning...

Anything that dogs on UMCP is alright be me! The only place where you burn things when you win, lose, tie, break up with your girlfriend, stub your toe ....

Drums has actually created an advanced form of English that liberates itself from constraints such as "punctuation" and "spelling." Back to the point of the thread . . . that article was depressing and sad. On the plus side, it puts the usual nonsense the neighbors complain about at Gtown and GW in perspective. And it definitely makes the town-gown relationships seem better.

Haha i loved that article. I hate UMD so much! College park is such a hole. It was like a 15 minute drive from my highschool in NE and we'd go to chipotle there for lunch some times. But you look around and it's like this is it? This is all they have to do in college park? no wonder they burn they're probably just bored to tears.

I'll give them one thing, being a Philly kid and all, they do have the only Metro-accessible Wawa in the DC area.

I actually have a degree in physics and a masters in engineering, so if you want an academic throw-down hifi, you got it. I will partial differential-ate your ass. I will Quantumly knock you off your feet, and then hit you from the other side, because I just happened to be measuring there. And remember to watch yourself, since with only a spoon, 24oz of cottage cheese and the 3rd season of MacGyver on DVD, I could make the government think you were a terrorist.

What a shame that with all that intellect and schooling no one ever bothered to teach you proper english.

Don't get your panties all in a wad; I am just funnin' with ya'.
Our group of buddies sometimes call it the "language police" and we all grow from being corrected. Although it does Edited us off occasionally.
For what it's worth, my oldest daughter is a third generation district spelling champ. My mom went all the way to state when she was in school and I lost in regionals. My daughter did the same last year. The worst part was that she went out on a technicality. It is now kind of like Jeopardy where you have to word the answer in the form of a question. At least in her competition you have to say the word then spell it and then say the word again. She just said the word and then spelled it correctly but didn't repeat the word. I thought that was kind of cheesy but rules are rules and she took it pretty well.

Because that "group of buddies" and "daughter" are voices in his head, and this is the only place he actually interacts with living, breathing humans, as opposed to the rotting corpse of that missing door-to-door salesman he keeps in his basement freezer. "It rubs the lotion on its skin..." HAHAHA!!! I'm just funnin' with ya! HAHAHA!!! Puke.

Don't forget, besides the science-y stuff, Drums lifts like a madman, throws down a mean chop block at least a few times every Super Bowl Sunday (Pitt game notwithstanding), will own you in most video game competitions, and was nominated for Fan of the Game last season (and lost to some dumb kid).
Plus he owns a sweater that used to belong to a dead retard.
Not a man to mess with.

"Being a third generation district spelling championship in Florida" is to "A generational demonstration of superior intellectual aptitude" as . . .

Let's get back to the real issue here. College Park is one of the crappist towns in America. It's up there in the group with Albany, Hartford, and Dayton
