Dear Daily Texan

Dear Daily Texan,

My roommate loves March Madness and won’t stop watching it. Every time I see her, she will be glued to the screen watching basketball. We’re not super close, but I want to get closer with her because we are living together next year, as well. How can I understand the madness of March Madness? Please help.

Dear reader, 

If you don’t care about March Madness, why start now?


The Anarchist: When was the last time she expressed interest in something you liked? The next time she’s watching basketball, pick up the remote and turn it off. 

The Couch Potato: If you really want to get close, maybe find some sort of common ground. Try using March Madness to set a recurring time to hang out together and watch TV. Once March Madness is over, find some other show you can both enjoy.

Dear Daily Texan,

I am afraid of running into my old friends on campus because we don’t speak anymore.

Dear reader, 

You’re screwed.

The Master of Disguise: Swing by the Ragstock in Dobie for a wig and sunglasses. This is your new identity. 

The Mole: Take the tunnels.
