The Bwog
Found in Nussbaum
Yeah, we're not even gonna touch this one...

As if they needed more publicity...

Well we're giving them some anyway in light of the dapper gentleman they've chosen as their poster child (maybe Andy Samberg helped pick out the picture?). Oh, and their catchphrase is kinda clever in an inadvertently self-negating kind of way...

Also featured on CUCR posters for Friday's Horowitz visitation: a man hanging from a rope and a woman being buried alive. Reminiscent of Hillel's people who were active in Hillel but not posting on behalf of Hillel's posters heralding Ahmadinejad, actually, but less colorful.


Lolowitz!

Proof from Hamilton 3 that flyering is a legitimate art form:

In completely unrelated news, Bwog saw this rather militant-looking vehicle parked outside its window this morning. Though momentarily worried that our nation had suffered an overnight descent into Soviet-style martial law, Bwog's fears were assuaged when it saw that it carried a banner reading "Elite Shooters.com." We're glad that somebody's finally cashing in on the long-dormant urban sportshooting market, although it looks like a few Morningsiders are in for a hell of an office party. Maybe the Saltzman Institute is going for a mid-semester jaunt?



Someone had a bad date

Found in Sulzberger and on a South Lawn bulletin board.

This photo has been taken down at the request of someone who, over
the phone, claimed that he was the person pictured, but did not
identify himself.

UPDATE, October 10: This comment thread has been removed at the request of an administrator who said that the subject of the post desired its removal.

Choices, choices...

Eash Cumarasamy discovered this thought-provoking juxtaposition of flyers on one of the pillars of Lerner Hall- "Intercultural Cook-Off" vs. "Obesity Panel: Is America Too Fat?" It reminded Bwog of a similar double-take it did earlier this year, when Toward Reconciliation, the conflict resolution group, posted a "Why Can't We Be Friends?" flyer atop one asking "Want to Rule the World?"

Gossip, On Learning Your Lesson

ruckOverheard in EC:

Rugby Guy #1: We should make posters to get people to come to our game.
Rugby Guy #2: No, you have to get them approved.
Rugby Guy #1: What? We can't just make some on our own?
Rugby Guy #2: No.
Rugby Guy #3: What if we made, like, little posters, that we just hand out?
Rugby Guy #2: Nope. Can't do it.
Rugby Guy #4: We don't have to make posters that say, "Come see the rugby team." They could just say, "Come see us."
Rugby Guy #2: No.

Thanks to Addison Anderson for overhearing.
