Hello all and happy holidays! It's time for another round (6th or 7th?) of the OGBoards Secret Santa! As the years go by, I get busier and the effort I put into writing this post diminishes. But whatever, the gifts are the fun part. If you wish to participate, the process goes like this...

Holyyyy shit you guys, I almost forgot about this. I'm stupid busy so I'll just copypasta instructions below. You all know how it works anyway. Things to do: 1) By Thanksgiving, PM me your name (boards name optional), address, and any description, guidelines, allergies, clothing sizes, or...

hohoHO SHIT, it's that time again! 2015 Boards Secret Santa is here! Shit Creek is flooding outside in Uganda at the moment (literally, right now, outside) so I'm just going to fire off a half-assed post explaining things you already know. ... in fact, I'm so lazy that I used the search...

Dear OGBoards family, ... ok, that's a lie. Most of you are crabby assholes. However, it's nearly Thanksgiving and that means it's time for OGBOARDS SECRET SANTA. So, the gist is that you follow these rules (please) and we'll all get excited and everyone will have all the fun. Things...

I rarely start threads and rarely visit the Tunnels so forgive me if this question is redundant over here. Just something I've been thinking about this morning. I'm wondering if democracy in the United States is fucked. I don't know enough political history to mull over the problems we've had...

Just saw this shared from a professor friend through fb. Hopefully not Haas (did a quick boards search at least). http://oldgoldandblack.com/?p=35126 The whole article is damning but I thought the ogboards would especially appreciate this snippet: "Ron Wellman, director of athletics, saw...

go wild kids p.s. my first CT win and I wasn't even trying. I'm the blindest squirrel.

So, in preparation for spending some time at home over the recent holiday, I picked up what I thought was Jonathan Safran Foer's last novel, Eating Animals. Turns out it's not a novel at all (didn't research this one bit, obviously) but rather a book about his journey to find out where food...

I'm sure this has been discussed but I don't recall seeing it recently and was thinking about it in the office this morning. What teams do you find yourself receptive to, even though they aren't your #1? I don't have particularly many, and have somehow ended up with a soft spot for Baltimore...

Well Pit, woke up this morning to find someone had egged my recently purchased car. I'd left the apartment 20 minutes early to try to pick up a chicken biscuit on the way into work (McD, sadly) so I was able to clean some of the gunk off my windshield and driver's door window before departing...

In this thread, we post stories or photos of celebrities we've encountered in everyday life. Took a photo with Bill Murray on the street in your hometown and think no one will ever believe you? This is the thread for you, my friend. Posrep if you harassed them enough to demand a photo. I...
