ipods=obnoxious

people walking around with no clue what is going on. or wearing them in class. or walking between classes, like thinking is such a bad thing. why is our society so wired? why are so dependent on music to full our minds?

yeah, get in with the ifad.

the only way to look less cool than you already are.

I definitely know what you're saying, but i won't lie i do have one, i just like it cause it makes it easier to ignore the people hitting me up for money on the streets, and i dont have to listen to all the crazy people on the T

hello, anonymous person (whose IP addy says that they live someone in MA).

1) if i saw you with an ipod and i was poor, i'd figure you had money to spare.

2) the crazy people are half the fun of the T

true enough, but it's nice to be able to be alone with your music when you have no choice but to be out, cause you have class

[bestieverdid]

what's wrong with being alone with your thoughts?

(who are you, btw? and do i even know you?)

The Suckage of Apple

[lovelydisaster6]

iPods suck. I'm an old fashioned DiscMan gal myself. Nothing beats having a massive CD collection to show off your diverse musical tastes to people. Oh and what are those other things called? iPod Nanos. Those suck worse. You don't even know the song you're listening to. Basically, all things Apple (except my adorable lil iMac) suck.

an incredible waste of money. who even has that much music to put in there?

i bought an ibulldog mp3 player for $20, and it holds enough music for me at the gym.

I randomly searched my college (BBC) that I graduated from back in 1992 and came across your site! Wow, they actually allow people to listen to ipods? When I went we had all our music gone through by our RA's and if it wasn't classical or Keith Green, it wasn't happening.

I haven't been back since. They wouldn't want me. But I do wonder from time to time how things have changed...

[bestieverdid]

wow, heh, i'm a freshman.
yeah, but they are supposed to just have christian music, of course :)

[easily_charmed]

lol well we weren't even allowed all Christian music...only Steve Green (did I say Keith Green before? He wasn't allowed.). They made us pull out all our tapes so they could inspect them and confiscate. I found it odd that they DID let me get away with listening to musical soundtracks - which consisted of racy stuff like Rent. lol Bizarre.

Ah, well I wish you well. I was considered quite the hellion as I did things like going outside in barefeet and wearing skirts right at the edge of the length restrictions and *gasp* being caught off campus alone with two boys! My god, there could have been a threesome going on!

[bestieverdid]

were they oppposed to christian rock?
ha, tapes!!!! what are those? lol
we can't listen to most soundtracks. i can't even listen to my titanic soundtrack b/c two of the songs have lyrics. oh the evil!

two boys? hehe
