Dribs and drabs

From a Q&A with Stanford's Lydia Bai on GoStanford.com:

GoStanford: How have you liked living in the dorms?

LB: My dorm was really fun during freshmen orientation week. We all really bonded because we talked to each other about our insecurities.

"Talked to each other about our insecurities"? What happened to, you know, "I Never..." and "Drinking until you can't stand up"?

LB: In my dorm we talked about how sometimes student-athletes feel that they aren’t as academically smart as the other students at the school. The people in my dorm were very supportive about this and said that we shouldn’t feel that way because we are all at Stanford for a reason.

(They're just saying that to be nice.)

Yikes. That is depressing. 


From Columbia Tribune article about Catie Wilson:

Wilson, MU’s eternally upbeat middle blocker, was christened the “Smiley Pink Princess” by her middle school coach and has..."

...never forgiven the coach since?

"...not stopped beaming since."

Oh.
