First off, let us clear the air:
Our parents are not pleased with the wording of this site. They probably want to wash our little mouths out with soap, give us a time-out, and make us put 50 cents in the word fine jar. Dear parents, you’re probably right, but we just knew that something slightly scandalous and irreverent would actually get attention and, hell, be a little humorous at the same time. Just be thankful we didn’t decide to take off all our clothes and run around like we used to do at your dinner parties.
And now for serious business. Why the fuck did we make this site?
In a way, in all of our choosing Oberlin, it equally chose us. Harris, Ma'ayan, and every single other person who contributed to this site has a different path that led us to Oberlin, but we all converged, here, in northeastern Ohio for some amount of time that seemed like our whole lives and yet also was over in an instant.
Oberlin’s been summed up in many words and phrases over the years, on many pieces of paper, websites, in conversations, and more. Each of us has our own passionate sentence, or several sentences, to describe this place we hold dear.
We made this site for those among us who haven’t discovered Oberlin yet to learn all the reasons that Oberlin is great and for those who are already thoroughly in love with the place to share their own reasons.
These fucking awesome websites were an inspiration to us:
- What The Fuck Should I Make for Dinner?
- The Fucking Weather
- What The Fuck Has Obama Done So Far?
- What The Fuck is My Social Media Strategy?
- Good Fucking Design Advice
If something on this site ignites a flame in you or under your ass, check out Oberlin’s admissions page or Oberlin’s giving site to fuel your fire till you burn with the same everloving Oberloving passion we live every single day.
This website is powered by Django, lighttpd, and Linode.
Hell yes,
Harris and Ma’ayan
