<p>Oh dear God...who dragged this thread out of the wastebasket?</p>
<p>My brain is imploding. This is the exact thread that angered me into creating a CC account (3+ years ago), just so I could reply to it. As you can see, my sarcasm had not yet been very finely tuned....</p>
<p>"Give me an M, give me an I, give me an MIT CHESS!"</p>
<p>what the.... dec. 2004 post? come on, dont we already have a thread dedicated to brains and beauty?</p>
<p>This is so, so old.</p>
<p>Please, people, do old threads a favor and let them rest in peace. This poor thing never wanted to be brought up again.</p>
<p>Not to justify the existence of this thread by engaging in it, but... from the original post:

I'm a very flirtatious guy and I really like being around outgoing girls who aren't afraid to strike up a convo with a guy outta nowhere. After reading some profiles on MIT's site, i just don't really get that vibe from the girls...

OK, at the time, the "profiles" on the admissions site were just short profiles of students -- where they were from, what they were majoring in, activities they participated in at MIT. I know, because I was one of the people who had one. Now how, pray tell, is one supposed to convey that one is not afraid to "strike up a convo with a guy outta nowhere" in a profile with this purpose? Dear lord.</p>
<p>Also, people who think the mere idea of an MIT cheerleader is funny -- ha frickin' ha. Never heard that one before. Don't make me start my spiel about the cheerleaders, because just as Laura joined CC for this thread, I joined CC for a similar thread talking about the physical appearance of the cheerleaders.</p>
<p>isn't High Tech High funded by Bill Gates? and it's like a very good free private like school?
You are lucky LauraN!!</p>
<p>Girls at MIT are, on average, just like girls everywhere else, on average. Except they can do calculus.</p>
<p>Having said that, Boston is home to literally over 50 colleges, most of them over 60% female. If you can't find women in Boston, I promise you, it's your fault, not MIT's.</p>
<p>chibearsfan17, you know, I was thinking the same thing lol</p>

<p>And some can even do lambda calculus. God that's such a turn on.</p>
<p>though not many '11s can do lambda calculus since they did away with 6.001 :(</p>
<p>I got a kick out of the lambda hack a few weeks ago</p>
<p>Two big reasons I want to go to MIT are to learn mad chemistry and play mad basketball. I could care less about eye-candy (see: "PS2 games > Xbox graphics" logic of the past).....</p>
