Naked

Since when does naked = sex? Why is a nude automatically porn?
Check this out.

This kid could have to register as a sex offender... just for being naked because under-aged people were in the audience.

We really need to re-evaluate our definition of sex, and sex offenders, naked is naked.

Our sex offender laws are there for a reason, not to stop people from pulling silly pranks. In Illinois, if you're charged with public urination, you have to register as a sex offender. Last I checked, if you're peeing in public, it's probably not because you're getting off, it's probably because you really have to pee (and most likely drunk) and can't find a public rest room. If you're doing it to get off, there's probably more going on than public urination.

Let's save the sex offender tag for true sex offenders, before it becomes less serious.

No Smoking

Can the smokers come back inside already?

I don't smoke... I don't like being around people who do. Once I dated a guy for a couple of weeks who smoked , and I got the worst cold of my life... nasty cough that came along with that.

I'm sick of having to walk through a cloud of smoke every time I want to go into a smoke-free building. I live in a smoke-free building. Anytime I leave or come home during the hours regular college students are awake, I have to walk through a cloud of smoke. If the smokers could smoke in their own rooms and apartments, they wouldn't have to poison my lungs with their smoke.

Give them a few floors to their smoke on... I'm sick of walking through the haze

Alcohol Violation?

I left my on-campus apartment on Wednesday morning at 8:30am so I could get to my 9am class a little early and read the newspaper, amoung other things. I had to take the stairs, because the elevators are fucking slow.

When I finally got home at 9:15pm after two classes and a CAPS meeting in Lincoln Park, I had just enough time to change into jammies and check my email before the Daily Show. About half-way through, my RA knocks on my door to tell me that there has been an alcohol violation in my apartment, and that our visitor privilages have been revoked. They handle everything on a case-by-case basis, so I have to set up an appointment with judicial affairs.

Yes, I had beer in my apartment... I'm 22 years old. I haven't lived in dorms since I was 20. And I honestly intended to cook with it!

My biggest question is: What was going on in my apartment so the on duty RA felt the need to enter, and proceed to look for and take alcohol?

Were my roommates being loud so an RA came in, or do RAs randomly check apartments, just in case? And if they randomly check, where is the line drawn? If they overhear I have a flask of Capt. Morgan in my underwear drawer, do they dig through my underwear drawer?

So now, I have to find time in my already busy schedule to go and talk to theses people, and see what really went on.

I'm pissed
