I'm really turned off by the idea of eating clubs...

<p>But what if the posters inhabit the colleges, essentially making the colleges?</p>

<p>do you think that by using large words and wording ur sentences in a jumbled manner youre going to confuse us? we arent idiots lol. i get more of a feeling that you dont actually mean anything and ur just a troll....</p>

<p>Playfair - Just a note about c) you don't necessarily have to be in an eating club to attend their events. Otherwise, your last post made me wonder what we were arguing about. Neat : )</p>

<p>lol, lol. ill be cool now, ill stay away from intentionally using big words.</p>

<p>"Yes, mea the truth is painful. The truth that I will be ensconsed [sic, and likely not the term you're looking for if you check it up] in an ambiance of chilvarous [sic] males courting females [where?] amidst a fiendish fervor [how?] of supporting illegal activities [how?]. Yes, that is painful."</p>

<p>Perhaps it would benefit you more than anyone else to lay off the big words.</p>

<p>LOL, thanks for the spell check. dont know what the heck i would do with you bros. we can continue to race to the bottom.</p>

<p>Hey you guys wanna know something cool? If you press -close door- and your floor level simultaneously, then the elevator goes to your floor without stopping in any levels in between.</p>

<p>Okiedoke i'm out for lunch. Prefontaine - I PM-ed you back.</p>

<p>wait are u serious hobbes? hmmm...thats interesting!</p>

<p>it works on some elevators at least. it's only for emergencies though... and if you plunge 20 stories to a fiery doom... it's not my fault</p>

<p>Mea,</p>

<p>I wasn't talking about tap room dances or the like, but daily meals (forget about occasional meal exchanges). You do in fact have to be a member in order to be "admitted to eat at [the club] on a regular basis" (citing my last post). </p>

<p>But I think, we are on the same page now... :)</p>

<p>Regards, P.</p>

<p>Jesus, you guys post fast!</p>

<p>So this is what I've gathered from reading through all that (as a summary for the poor souls who just want a summary):
1. Certain people don't like eating clubs because some are selective and makes Princeton a bad academic environment.
2. Of those same people, one admits to never having been to Princeton and is relying on hearsay, and the other sort of dropped out of the discussion.
3. Everyone else has been repeating the same facts which refute the claim in 1 over and over again.
4. Thread decomposed into a lot of fluff and posing, rather like a pillow fight at a strip club.</p>

<p>And there is nothing wrong with 19th century lingo when used correctly.</p>

<p>you must be a member lest the bouncers dont mess you up</p>

<p>You must be a member to eat at a club because you have to have paid for your food, like you do everywhere else!</p>

<p>[Tick tock ... plays Jeopardy theme ...]</p>

<p>lol haha arma, i like ur number 4 =P</p>

<p>haha u shouldve seen this forum in november...thats how we got so many posts :D</p>

<p>but it's.. 19th century for a reason! its antiquated... we;re in the 21st century!</p>

<p>I don't think we (that is, the 08s) were ever this active.</p>

<p>And it's not antiquated - it's still part of the language, just that it's used less often by the masses. It gives somewhat finer control over the tone one projects, which in my present case is something akin to "lazy pretension."</p>

<p>oi vey. ok :D</p>

<p>wow i created this thread in the morning, went out, and now it's on page 6. i swear my eyes bulged when i saw it!!</p>

<p>haha, that's what happens when someone decides to stir up..er... trouble.</p>
