sniffnoyQUARTER 3 WEEK 1 HOUSE MEETING MINUTES
---------------------------------------
Elections!
President - nominations: Mark, Colin
Mark is here, Tufts is really near and dear to his heart - literally, it's on
his shirt, he thinks it's great, he'll do everything he can to keep it great.
Also, he's a person - Mark rejects this reason, though, saying Colin is a
person too.
Colin would like to start by listing Mark Stankevitz's faults. On the
off-chance that anyone has not heard this story...
Stankevitz: You can't tell that story!
Everyone: Save it for weenie!
Well, Colin thinks that our biggest threat is illegal immigrants such as Noah
Ennis... has he even paid house dues?
Jim: Can non-humans run for president:
Colin: I'm pretty sure I'm just a non-person.
How will your diabetes affect your presidency?
Jake: Didn't you say you would use house money to buy your insulin?
Colin: See my embezzlement speech from my assistant secretary run.
Vice president: Colin and Aviva are nominated, but turn it down when they
realize they're running against Ginny. Ginny wins by default.
Secretary: Colin is nominated, but turns it down when he realizes what the job
entails. Other nominees: Laura volunteers, Steve and Kate Harney are
nominated. Aaron can't do it because of Off-Off. With a full 3 other
candidates, I decline to run again.
Laura feels like a jerk for running against Steve, but she always comes to
house meeting and she pays attention. But she'll need someone to sub for her
when she makes house snack.
Jake: Can you be witty?
Laura: I can be witty! Penis!
Steve doesn't know, vote for who you want to, these guys are good.
Kate Harney won't make a speech. But my bio teacher studies flying snakes, and
I like to watch them. And she would put random comments like this in the
minutes.
Jake: Laura, would you be Steve?
Laura: No...
Jake: Steve, you would be Steve, yeah?
Kate: Jake, would your baby be Steve?
Colin: Kate, could you be secretary with your debilitating fear of rabbits?
Kate: I am not afraid of rabbits!
Kate says slander, others say Weenie.
Can we have more slander - er, questions?
In a very close race, Kate Harney wins! Jim calls for a round of applause for
my 3 good quarters as secretary.
Kate Harney doesn't want to actually hang the minutes up, though. Kate wants
Antonia to hang them up for her.
Social chair nominations: Girl Alex - Kate Harney gives her speech, as Girl
Alex is in Arizona: If you're not afraid of Girl Alex, you will be if you don't
vote for her. However, there's nobody else to vote for and everyone's afraid
of Girl Alex anyway. Girl Alex wins by default.
Assistant social chair: Sadie nominates Dan, Dan nominates Sadie. No other
nominations, it stays the same.
Aaron is devastated to learn that I'm no longer secretary.
Blake: Have people been showing up to PTC, Laura?
Laura: One time everyone came...
Laura will head the PTC delegation and will try to get other people, with
Mark's aid.
Pierce dining council: It's Kate Harney. There's a fuss over whether or not
the position should be yearly. IHC is yearly, it's still Colleen.
Bill announces the new washers, which are high efficiency, but they take a bit
longer. Also there's the WAoVW trip on Thursday. Will the house subsidize $5?
Subsidy approved.
The lottery! The unrandomized list is on Bill and Dave's whiteboard; if
there's a mistake, correct it; tomorrow the corrected list goes up. Then comes
the randomization; Aaron wants his name in the hat to be on a pink day-glo
piece of paper.
Bill reminds us that when you sign someone in, you're responsible for what they
do, so don't sign in people you don't know!
Movie night is Kung Fu Hustle.
Something about Mozart? I missed it.
Finally, Bill and Dave are not coming back next year. Blake, however, will be
staying. No, they didn't get fired. The replacements may come by in May.
Aaron is shocked.
Speaking of fellowships... the Ring? No. The RMs are hosting Fred
Stafford who is going to talk about writing fellowships.
If you want the Pesach meal refund, you have to get the form in by tomorrow.
IMAX 300 next weekend! $15 tickets but they'll ask for a subsidy. Also some
film festival starts tomorrow?
Blake asks about when they should go camping; it'll be 5th and 6th of May.
Wait, that might be the Polish Day Parade?
Midnight soccer today. Painting walls soon.
Wasn't the Six Flags trip May 5th? Oops. Leslie talks about pancakes that you
don't get to eat.
Mark announces that it's the beginning of the quarter, but we need to start to
thinking about the end of the quarter. I.e. shooting Henderson. With guns.
And Thompson and Shorey. Yes, PTC is sponsoring Piercewide paintball!
Kate tells us that we should all play floor hockey because it's easier than
soccer. Dan likes to throw frisbees. You won't find any poop in his pants.
Blake reminds us of IHC's campuswide Assassins game, which we play as a house,
against the other houses. Play, otherwise you're just hurting the house.
Right? Also we'll try to organize a house Assassins game as a warm-up.
Aaron wonders how we would feel about a 3-hole punch. I feel that they are
useful devices. Also, Tyler has one.
Ian wants the house to buy an inflatable mattress so people don't keep
borrowing his. Mark suggests Ian research them first. Eve wants oven mitts.
Laura wants a Cuisinart, that seems a bit much... $20 to buy pot? Er, pots?
$40-$50? $50 is approved for various kitchen utensils.
WEENIE OF THE WEEK!
Colin nominates Mark Stankevitz: He and Leslie are talking in the front seat of
a car, and as a complete non sequitur, drops, "You know, Leslie, I think you
would have liked owning slaves." He also nominates Leslie, because all of her
friends have agreed with Mark's statement.
Kat nominates Sara: Her bio TA emailed her, asking if she'd like to pick up her
final, and she replied, yes, she'd love to pick up her laundry.
Also, Wai Lee: They stacked up the rolls of masking tape, Peter filled it with
butane, Wai Lee sets it of fire... he didn't realize it would be that big, so
to put it out, he blows on it - it flares up and burns his hair off. Wai Lee
wants to nominate Peter, the crowd boos him down.
Jim objects to Jan-Michael being nominated, and the story doesn't get told.
Wai Lee wins Weenie of the Week!
Hero:
Aviva says that Ian took her out in the hallway and said Kenneth gave him
money? Mark tells the real story, I can't follow it.
Aaron nominates me - one which you might see later, secondly for being
secretary. Kate Harney points out that I can jump like a frog and that's why I
got into Animal Locomotion. Mark says I'm good at spelling and am on Youtube.
Jake points out that I raised Jesus from the dead. I'm not going to contradict
any of this.
Blake nominates Mark for his Spartan impersonations, Ian nominates Mark for
being his best customer.
I win Hero of the Week. Well, thanks guys... I'll turn it over to Kate Harney
now.
Also talk to Mark about Smash tourney!
