"We joke about our rivalry..."*

<p>Correct Crimson, but keep in mind that most CCers are high school students interested primarily in years 1-4. A young group that takes seriously what the President of a University says.</p>

<p>Pardon me if I leave the room, alphacdcd, but your hurtful and cruel remarks are about to make me cry. In fact, I think I may throw up!</p>

<p>Before I leave, however, let me make this prediction: Harvard, as usual, will absolutely kill its SPYM competitors in the cross-admit wars, and will once again enjoy the highest yield rate by a wide margin.</p>

<p>Moreover, its "diversity" will be unmatched, thanks to the new finsancial aid initiative, and it will enjoy the highest SAT median in this peer group.</p>

<p>I take it you saw where the new flock of Intel Finalists are going?</p>

<p>And here is the only "ranking" that I care about:</p>

<p>Byerly, Same old unaccepted trash - over and over. Your credibility, or lack thereof, has been exposed here. To bad the "National Ranking Boys" don't see it that way. Nor do the students at the local level:</p>

<p>I hope you enjoy the comments. Read and weep. (LOL, because I know it kills).</p>

<p>P.S. But seriously, your lack of concern (and perhaps that of Summers) for the damage to the psyche of young women says much. I hope you do some reflecting. (I suggest you go back and read that Supreme Court opinion).</p>

<p>Its ok alphacd. All the stats, intel winners, and 1600 SAT takers will never assauge his insecurity about Harvard college not exactly being the best undergraduate institution in the country. Though on paper it should be, the reality, as you know, is different. </p>

<p>And I wish Yale was Taco Bell. Burger King sucks.</p>

<p>I do (its true, its true) have a lack of concern, alpha, for the damage to your fragile psyche that may have been caused by Larry Summers truth-telling.</p>

<p>Harvard is not for the faint of heart or insecure - it never has been.</p>

<p>How fortunate for you that you will never have to be challenged by life in Cambridge (except during those biennial losses at the stadium.)</p>

<p>ps to bulldog: I recognize how deeply humiliating it must be to have the Yale Daily News acknowlege "Old Eli's" Burger King status. But cheer up... it could be worse: they could have called Yale Krispy Kreme to Harvard's Dunkin Donuts.</p>

<p>I think I speak for everyone when I say that I would prefer a krispy kreme doughnut over a dunkin donut doughnut anyday.</p>

<p>LOL, Crimson. And I have always preferred Wendy's over McDs.</p>

<p>P.S. Byerly, to borrow one of your phrases, "trust me" I am far more familiar with life in Cambridge than you will ever be. (That is why, earlier, I could not let you deceive people here about safety issues in Harvard Sq.).<br>
But again I suggest you stay on topic. Your insensitivity towards the other gender and youth needs some work. You could have used some "touchy feely" courses in your youth. I somehow suspect this lack of sensitivity has had an impact on your personal life as well (divorced?, never married? - you seem the type). Oh how you could have benefitted from more interaction with your teachers - if only they had the time!). I always had great sympathy for the character "Bartelby", but you, I'm afraid, are not far behind.</p>

<p>Krispy Kreme sales are plummeting, bulldog: the stock has fallen through the floor, and bankruptcy is a distinct possibility!</p>

<p>I guess grease is falling out of fashion!</p>

<p>As for mean old alpha, isn't it nice he's happy with Wendy's. Not bad for #3, although their burgers are a little (... how shall I put it?) <em>square</em>.</p>

<p>Oh my effing god you people are arguing over whether Krispy Kreme is more popular than Dunkin Donuts in order to support a METAPHOR. Good Lord. </p>

<p>EDIT: Okay, think of it this way. You may like McDonalds, you may like Burger King, Wendy's, Jack in the Box, In and Out Burger, or hate fast food altogether. Whatever suits you suits you, it doesn't matter what someone else thinks the best fast food restaurant is whether they be a magazine, another student, or an alumni. Choose what you want. Have it your way, and love it. Yo quiero _______. Fill in that blank, the power is yours... the power to choose.</p>

<p>chill out man, we're just joking around about doughnuts</p>

<p>Now if you guys lived in the West, you would certainly know that McDonald's, Wendy's, BK, Jack in the Box, Carl's Jrs... etc. are all nothing compared to In n Out (which, of course, is like Stanford).</p>

<p>I disagree. Stanford, as everybody knows, is like Taco Bell!</p>

<p>In N Out is like Caltech ---- a tiny chain, little known outside California, where the menu lacks diversity and, according to e-pinions, "the fries s<em>u</em>c*k.".</p>

<p>in-n-out is amazing food, much better than all that other fast food crap,stanford is also good</p>
