Loading ...WOMB is a breakdown of thoughts gestating at UC Berkeley as revealed through the Livejournal community.
Never needing to the New York Times to promote stereotypes, our nerdy, computer geek-riddled Livejournal community has given proof to the claim:
bq. But Berkeley is freighted with the baggage of stereotypes — that it is boring socially, full of science nerds, a hard place to make friends.
One post this week captivated the community, despite the excitement of new classes. One user’s open letter was based on a simple thesis: “Anyway. I fucking don’t have any friends.”
Highlights of the overwhelming support:
* i have no friends either. oh well
* you are missing out. seriously.
* Not to be harsh or anything, but it just sounds like you want attention.
* Get a grip! And then go join some random group tabling out on Sproul right now that isn’t a cult.
* making friends at cal has proved taxing, and keeping them has proved worse.
* Last-ditch suggestion: become an alcoholic. They seem to have very healthy social lives.
* Berkeley classes will kick your ass and group-ass-kicking leads to bonding.
* Also, stop playing WoW. That’s definitely a friend-killer.
