What is your favorite vine?
The Concord Grape. It was developed in nearby Concord, Massachusetts in the mid-19th century, and makes terrific jelly and sweet wines for religious purposes. There’s also Red Vines, but here in Boston, we’re all about the Twizzlers…. If you mean Vine (the video service), looks like that’s over and done with.
How to [image of stairs?]

I think the wall here is pretty cool, how can I work on the inside?
The only beings inside me are mice. Are you a mouse? You’re welcome to work on the inside. I advise not nibbling on the conduits.
How to not be sick.
No guarantees, but establishing healthy living practices will probably increase your odds. Maybe schedule a meeting with the Office of Health Promotion (bit.ly/BC-health-promo) to develop an individual health plan (iHP)?
Can you print a photo of the goodest dog
One goodest dog must be the profile pic of WeRateDogs™, right? (@dog_rates on Twitter)
Does Fr. Leahy exist or is he a unicorn?
Preeety sure “Jesuit College President Is Actually Unicorn” and “Unicorns Really Exist” are headlines I would have seen. Also, presumably there would be more hoof prints and sparkles on the lawns.
poof <3 The heart emoticon looks like a fart. I fart you <3
I suppose the emoticon could be interpreted in several ways. As with any communication, if you are unsure of the meaning it is always best to ask the speaker/sender to clarify their intent.
Can you read my writing upside down?

Should i smoke crack
It’s illegal, so no. Also cruelly addictive & self-destructive. So, double no.

How do I raise my GPA in 2 hours? Asking for a friend (help)
If the 2 hours in question are during a final exam, you may be able to make a small but measurable change by doing really, really well. However, as with most things in life, change takes time and effort. I highly recommend talking to your academic advisor, to your professors, and getting some peer tutoring – and possibly academic coaching – from the CFLC (bit.ly/BC-connors).
who’s your favorite pro-golfer? DJ or Brooks Koepka?
More a Tom Watson fan, but I’m an old timer. The ’82 US Open happened while O’Neill was under construction, and this is still an epic way to win. http://bit.ly/bc-pga
What’s the chance for juniors to get a 4-man apartment?
You could go to the floor plans (bit.ly/BC-ResHalls, click on floor plans link) and count rooms of 4-person apartments in all the halls, and divide the number of people who *want* 4-person apartments by the number of beds (apts x 4). The trouble is, the number of people who want 4-person apartments is the big unknown: X.
Why is audit a commodity?
According to Investopedia, a commodity is “a basic good used in commerce that is interchangeable with other commodities of the same type.” (bit.ly/investo-commodity) One company’s coal is the same as another company’s coal. If audit is a commodity, that means one company’s audit is interchangeable with another’s. Choice would be based solely on price.
Should I get a cat or a tattoo?
EXCELLENT QUESTION!!! The answer to this dilemma would depend on two major factors: 1. The type of cat you would be getting: The pets we own say a lot about who we are. Think about the vibe you get from someone who owns a Sphynx cat (Lady Gaga) versus the vibe you get from someone who owns a Siamese cat (Elizabeth Taylor). 2. The type of tattoo you would be getting: The tattoos we have say a lot about who we are. Think about the vibe you get from a person who has a Chinese tattoo (Chris Evans) versus the vibe you get from someone who has a Polynesian tattoo (Dwayne Johnson). Once you know exactly the kind of cat and type of tattoo you are considering, then you can thoroughly assess the impact, cost effectiveness, benefits, and implications associated with each option.
Does God exist? And what is the recipe for Eagle’s Nest chocolate chip cookies?
The number of arguments for or against the existence of God is so vast that it would be a challenge even to fit the *types* of arguments on a post-it. I recommend searching “existence of god” in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy for starters: bit.ly/stanford-philosophy. You can also see what we have in BC Libraries for books & other items: bit.ly/does-God-exist. As to the cookie recipe, I’ll have my assistants contact someone & get back to you.
Update 2/1/19: Dining Services says, “Our Eagle’s Nest chocolate chip cookie is actually very similar to any basic chocolate chip cookie recipe out there. Most vary on the quality/ quantity of vanilla and chocolate chips. The secret to the Eagle’s Nest is that the bakery garnishes them with extra chocolate chips on top of the cookie, instead of only mixing throughout the dough.”

What interesting things can I do in BC?
There’s lots happening! How about cheering on a BC Athletics team? Women’s Basketball plays Duke this Thursday @ 7pm. If you’re into the arts, take a look at the Robsham Theater calendar (https://bit.ly/2HytlAJ). The Vagina Monologues opens February 14. And with 273 student organizations (https://bit.ly/2sPQCnk), there are many options for interesting things on campus. Have fun exploring!
Why it all happen?
Sometimes for the good, sometimes not. Many times, for no discernible reason at all. There are some who think there is an underlying order that mere mortals can’t perceive, and this gives them solace. There are others who believe there is no underlying order, and that when you understand that, you can let go of suffering. My honest answer: I don’t know.
