Sure… and cows, too, let’s not be sexist!
Go bulls :)
Can I wake up in Chris Brown’s body?
The Wall would totally watch that movie.
Is there a cuckoldry club @ BC?
There is no club at BC that covers your interest, although you can find a full list of BC Organizations here: bit.ly/BCOrgs. If you’re interested in the subject, it appears that Dr. Eric Weiskott is offering a course on Chaucer (ENG3393) this fall.
Can Chris Brown ever make a comeback?
He is trying (see: “Freaky Friday”) but the Wall sincerely hopes he does not.
What’s a good TV show on Netflix?
As a Wall, I don’t watch shows myself and I don’t often have shows projected onto me, but I have heard that some people project movies and shows onto other walls. My human friends have a wide range of interests in Netflix entertainment. Digital Trends has an article on “The Best Shows on Netflix Now,” bit.ly/netflix-best. The list is mostly dramas, but if you like quirky comedies some people like a show called “The Good Place,” starring Kirsten Bell and Ted Danson, and the Huffington Post has an article titled, “The 5 Netflix Shows to Watch if you Like The Office.” bit.ly/netflix-office. Enjoy your downtime!
How come I wasn’t able to get BTS tickets?
Because they’re wicked popular? But their site (bit.ly/bts-world-tour) promises more dates to come, so maybe you’ll get your wish…
I don’t feel so good Mr. Stark
It sounds as though you’ve seen Avengers: Infinity War. I hope you enjoyed it! You should chat with the person who asked who dies in the movie to help them prepare for the experience.
Tell me a joke!
Teacher: “Who can tell me where Hadrians Wall is?”
Little Johnny: “I suspect it’s around Hadrian’s garden!”
Who died in Avengers: Infinity War?
As a public space and friend to all students, I can’t share spoilers and risk ruining a new blockbuster movie for those who haven’t had an opportunity to see it yet.
However, I think you could have a worthwhile conversation with the person who posted the “I donāt feel so good Mr. Stark” post-it! If you want to read more about who dies before you see the movie, try this article:Ā bit.ly/infinity-death-list
When the Japanese animate cartoon pornography with genitals pixeled out, do they first animate genitals and then pixel? Or do they just animate them as pixels?
Given that pixelation–also called mosaic censoring–is a standard feature of even low-end photo and video editing software, and that attempting to draw a pixelated body part could be considerably more challenging than simply drawing the body part and then pixelating during production work, it’s quite likely that genitals are first drawn & animated and then pixelated. This blog entry on de-pixelating seems to imply as much: bit.ly/mosaic-censoring
Do you know the muffin man?
Not personally, no. But I do know a wall in downtown Boston who is second cousins with a wall on Drury Lane. So that’s pretty cool. I’m also an professional acquaintance with the Bodleian Library walls which hold the oldest known manuscript of The Muffin Man (circa 1820). So that’s also pretty neat.
Why does CAB only get washed old rappers like B.O.B.
I can’t pretend to know what goes into CAB’s choices for entertainment. If you have criticism or suggestions for them, I recommend you address them directly: bc.orgsync.com/org/cab/ContactUs or perhaps via twitter: @CABofBC.
Why is Spider-Man dead? :( (spoiler alert)
(Spoiler Alert)
Ask Thanos. No idea what his selection criteria were.
Why is Gamora?
The Wall doesn’t have a copy of Strange Tales #180 to consult, but suspects that someone on Zen-Whoberi knows. bit.ly/bc-gamora
C.A.B are unprincipled losers with bad music taste – Y/N?
The invitation to B.o.B. to perform at BC (reported recently in The Heights: bit.ly/BC-BoB-heights) has created notable controversy, as reported in the Boston Herald (bit.ly/herald-BoB). A group of faculty sent a letter on the morning of 4/30 (bit.ly/BC-faculty-BoB) with 174 faculty signatures to the BC administration requesting that BC issue a response āreinforcing Boston Collegeās mission to live out the social justice imperatives inherent in its Catholic and Jesuit heritage and disavowing B.o.B.ās conspiracy theories and anti-science and anti-Semitic proclamations.ā Clearly, anti-Semitism is not a Jesuit value. C.A.B. has defended its choice by drawing a distinction between his talent and his personal views, and added that they are āhappy to meet with and listen to the concerns of those students who may be offended by our selection.ā Though Iām always here to listen & respond, I suggest that making concerns known to the C.A.B. directly (bostoncollegecab@gmail.com) has a better chance of creating results than telling me, a mere Wall.

Is it meaningful (or even possible) to “separate the art from the artist” while paying the artist thousands of dollars?

How can BC justify paying a Holocaust denier to perform at Modstock??
I get the impression from this article in the Boston Herald (bit.ly/herald-BoB) that the C.A.B. has justified B.o.B.’s appearance here by drawing a line between his beliefs and his art. The lyrics of “Flatline” reference the holocaust denier David Irving: “Do your research on David Irving/ Stalin was way worse than Hitler”. B.o.B. didn’t do his research with this book: Telling lies about Hitler : the Holocaust, history and the David Irving trial, by Richard Evans, O’Neill Library KD379.5.I78 E95 2002. There are also a few books by Irving in our collection, from an era before he engaged in holocaust denial. BTW, B.o.B. is a flat-earther, too, and though I like flat–I’m a wall, you know–, there aren’t many sources within my walls that support that pre-Copernican view of the cosmos.
Kanye 2020 or Kanye 2024?
Chance 2020.
I’m going to Tokyo this summer…any fun places recommendations?
How exciting! I hear Tokyo has some great walls! …But I’m going to assume you might want to move beyond just walls. The grounds of the Tokyo Imperial Palace are beautiful and a perfect place for a stroll. The Meiji Shrine is a great option if you are interested in seeing a Shinto shrine. If you are also interested in seeing a Buddhist temple, visit ZÅjÅ-ji, which has buildings dating to the 1600’s. If you’re a sushi lover, you might want to check out the Tsukiji fish market before it is relocated in the fall of 2018. If you like unique and fascinating museums, check out the Ghibli Museum, the Sumo Museum, or the Meguro Parasitological Museum as well! Have a great trip!
