Maybe you should focus on being a part of the solution instead of perpetuating this disgusting state of affairs.

What Washington U needs is a heaping helping of Nabu.

today, I found out:

I was going to type out statistics, but, basically almost half of my school are virgins. Including about a third of seniors. Of those who aren't virgins, a huge percentage report having sex fewer than 3 times in the last year.
Aren't college students supposed to be oversexed?
Isn't my generation supposed to be oversexed?

Good lord.

I remained a virgin during the 5 semesters I went there.  Right after I left, on the other hand...

[theinevitable]

dude, I am working hard on this.

The problem is the guys, a really large proportion of this school, who seem to have no interest in girls. I swear to god. They just play videogames and watch football, and do not pursue girls at all.

I am trying to fit my mind around this concept but it's just not working.
Maybe because it's harder for college girls to get alcohol over there the guys know they have less chance and so give up? Just bizzare.

Hey, I was trying. 

I was just terribly awkward and completely blind to any signals that were sent my way.

I am as well.  Here's to hoping 2008 is the year!

It is not hard for them to get alcohol.
And my friends at other schools... well... stories they have told me seem to imply that this is not a universal thing.

But, I mean... out of my 3 roommates, 2 have never drank. They both have girlfriends who they are not having sex with. The other one drinks, but never gets laid. I guess I fit into the same category as that one, but... I am at least pursuing girls. He just tells stories like "oh, yeah, there was this one cute girl in my chem class and we talked a few times, but, whatever."
There has to be something in the water.

I think, really, the people at this school are just too... nerdy isn't the word. They're the people who got into this school because they have worked hard at everything, ever, and avoid all distractions. My friends in the Art School and at the radio station... well... I don't think very many of them are virgins. Or, you know, any of them. And they're the kids that didn't work that hard in school and got by by being smart.

That is my theory, at least.

Check the food service storage areas for potassium nitrate. They must be putting it in the food or water.

Foreign substrates in water do lead to a draining of precious bodily fluids, and loss of essence. Is the water fluorinated?

Not enough information!  Why potassium nitrate?

It's saltpeter. He's positing that's why there are so many virgins at tI's school. What with its mythical libido-dampening powers.

I have never heard of this before.  Hey, now that would be an interesting episode of Mythbusters.

The Straight Dope on the subject.

Edit: upon further thought, Mythbusters should definitely test this out. Because I can only assume that it would involve Kari basically dressing up like a whore to test the effectiveness of the saltpeter on the men. That is quality television.

While Kari's state of dress is always entertaining, the MSDS for KNO3 would probably give their insurance company pause.  The money paragraph:

"Ingestion:
Causes irritation to the gastrointestinal tract. Symptoms may include nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause gastroenteritis and abdominal pains. Purging and diuresis can be expected."

I guess if you really hate Grant and Tory that might be fun to watch...
