<p>what's the deal w/ chuck norris. please, enlighten me...</p>
<p>all those crazy "facts" about chuck, he actually went on best damn sports show and read some. i dont know where it orgininated though. proebely wikipedia knows.</p>
<p>Chuck Norris's tears can cure cancer. Too bad he has never cried.
Chuck Norris can speak Braille.
The chief export of Chuck Norris is pain.
Chuck Norris counted to infinity- twice.
IF AT FIRST YOU DO NOT SUCCEED, YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY NOT CHUCK NORRIS.</p>
<p>lol, that's actually quite funny.
I looked it up on Wikipedia, they actually can't pinpoint how the fad originated...</p>
<p>Jack Bauer > Chuck Norris :P</p>
<p>dont even.... haha</p>
<p>jeeze i turned this into a chuck norris thread.. maybe chuck will love me and bribe usc to get me in. :)</p>
<p>This is my favorite:
While Chuck Norris was on holiday in Spain, he ate some bad paella causing him to take the largest sh** known to man. That ***** is now France.</p>
<p>But in all seriousness what the hell is going on with USC acceptances ? USC needs to fix their system as people are anxious as hell and there is no way all acceptances have been sent yet or this board should be flooding with people considering they get over 30,000 applications. Does anyone have a general date when the majority of people will get their notice ?</p>
<p>everything is mailed out 3/20 apparently. told to me by someone who was told by office of admissions</p>
<p>If you are a freshman applicant and applied by the january deadline you'll hear by april 1st, for sure.</p>
<p>Be patient, unlike many universities, usc doesn't just have a checklist or formula for if you get in or not. Since they actually put effort into reviewing these apps individually that means that the responses will trickle in over time..</p>
<p>"everything is mailed out 3/20 apparently. told to me by someone who was told by office of admissions"</p>
