<p>Why are you Northwestern students taking this so personally?</p>
<p>I already apologized. What else do you want me to do??</p>
<p>haha that wasn’t directed at you…it was more in general (ie. prodigalson if you’ve read some of his posts).</p>

<p>Okay, so the more I’ve thought about your (false) accusation, the more it didn’t sit well with me.</p>
<p>I said something to the effect that in certain parts of the world where rice is consumed daily, rice is respected. I am not “making fun” of any people(s) or cultures. (I myself, before I went off to college, ate rice almost every day at home.) If I had said that some people(s) eat pasta daily, would you have said that I was “making fun” of European cultures?!?!</p>
<p>The point that I was trying to make in the Rice thread is that most people in the world only know rice as a food and not a university. So why worry about its (lack of) recognition?</p>
<p>dude you’re extremely overthinking this. it’s been days and this is still on your mind? jesus. I was half-joking when I responded to your Rice and Asians comment…re-read my post. I did not take offense to that comment at all, although you were clearly trying to make fun of Rice.</p>
