THE NYU HOMELESS COMMUNITY IS INFINITELY LARGE:
NYU library serves the homeless community
It has come to my attention that a CERTAIN SOMEONE has been living in our own NYU library for the past 8 monthes.
THE NYU HOMELESS COMMUNITY IS INFINITELY LARGE:
Some think it's pretty generous of NYU to provide lodging for even the most poor in our community. But on the other hand, what the fuck!! THERE IS NO NEED FOR BENEVOLENCE. The library is for education only. Let me clarify: studying- reading books, special papers, taking some kind of notes with a pen- yes thats education. But sleeping, taking a shit, and brushing your teeth is not education. Typing on a keyboard is also education. But showering in Library bathroom is not. NYU is not responsible for providing an area for for uneducational activities unless students pay $98273459827394 dollars. I, for example, pay $15,000 a year for my rat-infested dorm. EVERY DAY, i walk 5 flights of stairs just to get to my apartment, I cook my own meal, clean out my rodent traps, and go to the gym. I do not choose the easy way out.
But even if we assume for a minute that the library is perfectly appropriate for living. My question is: WHY CHOOSE BOBST OF ALL LIBRARIES? Let's compare the sleeping accomodations of different libraries in the tristate area.

SLEEPING AT BOBST
Mmmm, i always wanted to sleep on hard wood that rocks back and forth. (the hard wood is not a cock reference)
So anyways, I don't get what the big deal is about. This kid loves nyu so much, he cant suck up his pride and ask mom or dad for some cash, and would rather spend all his money on a "shitty" laptop, a paid LiveJournal Account, a cellphone, and a storage area. (see his expensive livejournal blog thing.) So if u're homeless, I have some advice:
1. ask your parents for some money. suck it up, apologize for puking on their new carpet, sleeping with your cousing, or eating their dog in a drunken frenzy, and have them give u some $$. We all have to do this. But of course, that takes a little more balls than living in a library.
2. don't write a book about your unique experience. it's been done: published story of hard life in public place
3. and also, stop loving nyu so much. it makes me sick.
