Me? I don’t really understand the human obsession with these parts. Sometimes I have found myself staring at a particularly fine crown molding – but that’s just poor manners, isn’t it?

(not being homoromantic, just someone being sexually attracted to a body part of the same gender) is a paraphilia. I myself am gay, so for me, it’s not, but the opposite team did make a few fair points. I wanted to hear your opinion on it. I mean, I don’t think it matters whether homosexuality is a paraphilia or not, no one needs to know what you do in bed with whom and why, if there is consent. And the thing I hate about trying to find the “gay gene” is that, when we find it, what? Why do we need to be born gay to need to be accepted? 

Completely agree that what consenting humans do sexually is none of anyone’s business, and that whether homosexuality is genetic is irrelevant. I still find “I’m not gay I just like [same sex body part]” to be a weirdly objectifying thing to say. But if you want to get into the science of it, you could start with something like the APA Handbook of Sexuality and Psychology. https://bit.ly/bc-apa

Costa Rica. Got rid of their army in 1949 and spent the money on improving their citizens lives.

Our HVAC system is scheduled for replacement at some point in the future (it is wicked expensive!) Until then, the current system, who is a distant relative of mine, does their level best to keep up with the crazy New England weather, and apologizes for the discomfort.

It’s not dress-up; some of our staff are members of religious orders.

It’s not in Bapst. It’s in O’Neill. PS3552.U4 S6 1973. Look in the table of contents.

And this Wall loves you right back!

What a wild ride puberty is, right?! I think you might want to check out books with the call number QP84.4 to start. The Educational Resource Center has a number of these, but you’ll also find them on O’Neill 3rd floor.

Welcome! Hope you enjoy your time here!

Boston College is a leading Catholic Jesuit university; the religious artwork and crucifixes are visual reminders of and an affirmation of that identity. I hope this does not drive you away!

That’s very true! And did you know, a BC ID card will get you free entry into different museums around Boston? Check out https://bit.ly/BC-freemuseums for more info!

Next time you’re walking around campus, check out the Educational Resource Center (ERC) in Campion. I hear they have a great selection of children’s and young adult lit!

You are already rich in life experiences, learning, and (I hope) friends and family. Whether you accumulate an abundance of money will depend on choices you make about using your existing wealth and your time to that end, and somewhat upon luck. Good luck!

I feel closest to a human ENFJ, though I expect my helpers run the gamut.

You can find out which organisms fart on this collaborative spreadsheet by scientists: bit.ly/google-sheet-farts, which includes such gems as this one about copperheads: “Elicits a small squeak, so small that you think you may be mistaken…until it hits you. Very dry and feral, with a slight hint of stale Copperhead musk.” For up-to-the-minute tweets on the subject, search twitter hashtag #DoesItFart: bit.ly/twitter-farts

Happy Birthday to all BC humans on March 6! (I’m sorry to have made this less personal. I have a very strict policy of anonymity.)

Isn’t it so fun to get into the characters of a show? Too bad it doesn’t look like there’ll be a 5th season :-/ Hope you continue to enjoy the series!

With a hiatus may come new projects – let’s wait and see what is in store for all of us from her if we give her a bit of space for her creativity to flourish!

You should tell B because no one deserves to be treated the way you and A are treating them. Person A clearly needs to work on their maturity and their values before being in a committed relationship with anyone again. Do you really want to be in a relationship with someone willing to cheat on and lie to their current partner?

If you are often having the desire to kill the person you are living with, you might want to reconsider the relationship altogether, for both your sakes. And seek help (bit.ly/BC-counseling) if you really mean it. I hope you find someone who, though they will surely anger/annoy/disappoint you from time to time, does not make you feel like killing them.
