...current moment, the energy here can only be described as tepid, at best. FlyBy wants to give first shotouts to Dunster, Mather, and Eliot for currently having the biggest representation. Other houses here include Pfoho and Currier. FlyBy gives a hearty boo to all you houses who are MIA: Leverett, Kirkland, Quincy, Adams, Cabot, Lowell, and Winthrop. WHERE YOU AT??? At any rate, hopefully we'll find some humor today, though I doubt we'll top probably the finest of housing day moments...
House Culture: Tepid. As the largest house, and one that happens to be divided amongst four non-adjoining buildings (including Dewolfe), it's got to be tough to build a defining house culture.

Some say that it was because Neil Busch, bassist and electro-noise maker, left the band. Some say that “Source Tags & Codes” was so perfect that anything that came after it would naturally pale in comparison. Whatever...
...perfume bottles and dropping a pitcher of milk. It seems he’s too busy scowling to put any effort into his vengeance. The violent sounds of this tempestuous break up—glass shattering, shrieks of rage, car alarms—are drowned out by the tepid tune of a rather weak pop ballad. Everything happens in slow motion; the events taking place within the dim interior of Ciara and Enrique’s fictive home seem as though they were transpiring underwater. Objects don’t fall, they float through the air and shatter delicately against...
