Assignment: Thoughtless Acts

Collaborators:

Whenever I come to South Hall and before I enter into the building, I usually look at my reflection to check to see if something's wrong with my hair or make sure my collar is straight. Not really the best way to check up on one's appearance. Maybe a full length mirror would be helpful, but then that could lead to accidents walking in and out of the building. Maybe a one way mirror would be useful, for the people going out to see who's coming in, and for the people coming in to see themselves.

Sometimes when I purchase a ticket for parking, someone who has left early leaves their ticket inside the slot, saving money for the people who come later and allowing them to use their not-yet-expired ticket. Kind of like the MUNI ticket sharing thing from last year's thoughtless acts.

When there is a lack of table space, a cup serves as a holder for a small piece of naan at the House of Curries. Pretty handy. I recommend getting the chicken tikka masala.

Bakesale Betty on Telegraph in Oakland uses ironing boards as their dining tables. Perhaps more tables should be designed as ironing boards, or more ironing boards should be designed as tables. Maybe some compromise could be reached here. Oh, and the scones at Betty's are great. ;-)

In my apartment, we use old plastic grocery bags instead of buying garbage bags. However, sometimes these bags are a little bit too small for the garbage can that they fit in. These plastic bags should be designed a little bit larger so that they can fit in a variety of different garbage cans.

One campus legend has it that stepping on this inscription in front of Sather Tower means that you will get bad grades. Consequently, many students walk around this on their way to and from class. Probably a solution to this is to give A's to students to disprove this myth. Another possible solution is to create a footbridge over it so that people don't walk on it.
