Teh Corner

Teh Corner

Teh corner was first inhabited and recognized at Lancaster in 05.1 and consists of a circular table booth adjacent to the alcove. The "Teh" in its name was intentionally created by Nathan (whose last name escapes me) and is not a misspelling.

People who sat at Teh Corner do not consider themselves a group like the alcove, the corner refers to the actual location, those that sit there are often consider themselves alcovians, or unwitting non alcovians who quickly get sucked in. They choose to sit at teh corner due to its more intimate feel and group oriented feel than the alcove, as it is one central table not many smaller ones.

Originally "Teh corner" served as the gathering place of the Greeklings, but as they made friends, the ranks swelled until additional tables were dragged over to increase the carrying capacity of teh corner, much to the dismay of Ra's and SRA's who enforced the no-moving-furniture policy.

Teh corner was often crammed full of 9 or more people sitting on each others laps, or up above teh corner's booth, adopting the catch phrase "Theres always room at Teh Corner", though RAs dissaproved due to the often CTYI touching and PDA that occurred.

Teh corner has a reputation as being incredibly noisy, often staging sing-a-longs. In 06.1, this caused a significant amount of strife as the site leaders ate their meals adjacent to teh corner. This prompted a crack down on the moving furniture rules, despite the fact that the tables were always returned to their positions after meals, and limits on the number of people who could be squeezed into teh corner, which were rarely followed.
