Whenever we here at the 'Prince' are feeling down, we always look to the same place for a little pick-me-up: our biggest fans, the online commenters. Here are a couple of our favorites from the past year.

We need equal opportunity for men in this country. It’s not fair that porn companies can discriminate based on what kind of genitals you have. It’s not fair that men are under-represented. Men are people too. We need affirmative action to create gender equality in the porn industry.”

Most asians I know are only friends with other asians. Also they are very bad dancers. Princeton should only be a place for smooth movers.
Posted by ‘truth hurts’ on “Is that girl hot or not?”
my girlfriend came here from outside of princeton. Her first comment was, “I’m not jealous anymore.” She asked repeatedly over the week what so many good-looking, ambitious guys do with so many unattractive girls. Then I explained to her the 2+2 rule: a 4 in the real world is a 6 at princeton, and thinks she’s an 8. It works. Think about it.

First, to all the guys here that think there are not “actually hot” girls at this school, I’m sorry, you obviously haven’t met me yet, which really sucks for you. And if you think I’m going by the +2 -2 rule, I guess that would make me an 11 at Princeton, a 9 in real life, and a 13 in my mind.With that factually established, let me respond to UglyGirls and other similarly minded men. I don’t “get it in,” so to speak, at Princeton and it’s not because I am bitter or unattractive (we’ve already established that I’m a knockout). I consciously choose not to hook up with any of you because sadly ... you guys aren’t “real world hot” either. I’ve tried donning the “Princeton goggles” many a time, and frankly, they hurt my eyes.

$56,000 in debt at graduation is not the financial aid Princeton advertises
Avi CheslerTake my story as an example — despite repeated evidence, both before and after taking out loans, that I would be unable to pay what Princeton asked of me — the University never set a cost that I could truly meet loan-free.

Olivia Ragan, Lauren Aung, and Madison LintonIt is important to cultivate in students interest in local and state level change, because it is the most direct way to give back to the New Jersey community that sustains the University.
