A Preview of the Post- Family Weekend Magazine

Family Weekend banter, translated:

“Mm, your father and I are trying to find hotels for May … any suggestions?”
You are graduating in May! Did you forget this? We did not.

“So, have you started thinking about, you know, next year…?”
OHMYGOD. Our darling little child is graduating with zero marketable skills! What has s/he been doing all this time?

“You know, honey, I think your mother has finally gotten over the whole empty nest thing.”
Please, oh please, oh please do not move back home. We have turned your bedroom into a love nest.  [Read more →]

Post- Editors’ Top 10: Snow and Slush

Yes, we know that snow art is cool.  Unfortunately, the slush that this week’s winter wonderland has turned into has become frustrating and sock-soaking.  In light of all this, our friends at Post- have compiled a list of the top ten “Things to do in Providence Slush.”

1. Hotbox an igloo on the Main Green

2. I f*cking love cocaine!

3. Throw snowballs at Olives.  Shed a tear for FishCo.

4. Build a snow slide out of a second story window.  Throw ripper.

5. Leave it to melt in between your bra and your shirt so that the boyfriend who you’re actually not into is led to believe that he makes your nipples wet.

6. Hose down Brown walkways.  Watch people fall.  Oh wait, Facilities already did that…

7. Snow Owl (Berge) Watchin’.

8. Cross-country ski to class.

9. Slush Angels.

10. Write your name in pee next to the bear statue.

Brown A-Z (Part I): A Capella to the Front Green!

As an incoming freshman last year, I found it incredibly difficult to learn all of the names and terms used to refer to everything in Brunonia, and often found myself wondering who Dave Binder was or why naked people were handing me doughnuts.  Thankfully, our friends at Post- Magazine compiled an essential list of terms necessary for any Brown student to know to survive.  As we enter into our first weekend of the school year, we figured we would post the A-Z list in three parts, A-F today, G-O tomorrow, and P-Z on Sunday.  If any one can think of any terms we left off, please feel free to add them in the comments.  So enjoy, because this is likely the only list of terms you will be given without a subsequent test.

Post- Editors’ Top 10: Have a Badass, Post-ified Spring Break

1. Sign all release forms handed to you by cameramen.

2. Don’t drink and drive, smoke and fly.

3. Have sex on the beach. And maybe a cocktail.

4. Drink with your parents; realize they are racist.

5. Explain to your mom that the bulbous red mark on your neck is from paintball. With the boys. Not a hickey.

6. Berge watchin’. In Cabo. Bikini Edition.

7. Reunite with Kiwi friends. Awkwardly make excuses for why our darling editor Allison Zimmer hasn’t called back.

8. Get arrested. Make sungalsses out of lit cigarettes. “Once you kill a cow, you gotta make a burger.” The f*ck, Lady Gaga?

9. Beg MTV to meet you at the beach even though Spring Break is over for everyone but Brown. Have an exec tell you it sounds too douchey.

10. Say woo! whenever possible.
