Campus Newton is a collaborative column (and podcast) by Alex Miller and Justin Lee, two Auburn students giving you an eye to the life and times on the Plains in 2012. Well, Alex is at home in Birmingham for the summer. But still.

After the resounding success of our first exploration into the Auburn airwaves, it only made sense that we return to signal searching on the streets of the city once again to find out more about our neighbors and community. Like our first venture, we discovered even more movie references and personal messages that proud Auburn citizens click every time they log on to the world wide web. Like plastic political yard signs and fantasy football team names, network names are the ways in which everyone can leave their mark, broadcasting whatever they feel to every neighbor and smartphone-bearing guest.
This time we traveled to the Opelika Road-ish side of town, picking up signals from several close-to-campus apartment complexes, most notably (on a good nip tip) Creekside (or as at least one wireless resident calls it, Fratside), which is evidently home to celebs Morgan Freeman, Kevin Bacon, Peyton Manthing (YES!) and (the other) Kenny Rogers—at least that’s who we’re assuming is catching waves from Cecil Newton’s Traphouse. God, it was a gold mine (more like Freak Side).
Here are the best few, or at least the censored few, that we could publish, below.
Like the Seriously Barrett Sucks and Feed the Reeds from our last survey, those who are All In weren’t hard to find:
All In
Saban sucks
Fearless and True
Buck Fama
Team Blue
War Damn Champs
War Damn Internet 2
War Damn Internet 5
The toomer ladies have aids*
Same with the nerds:
Daedric_Artifact
TeleportationStation
Wingardium Leviosa
To Infinity and Beyond
Skyship
A series of tubes
These were more classic examples of diversion tactics, when password-protecting your signal just isn’t enough:
FBI Surveillance Van 12
CIA mainframe
Gettoffourinternetjackass
Linksys Keg (reverse psychology!)
There are your aforementioned celebrities:
KevinBacon
MorganFreeman
Sherlock
The Real Larry Birds
Grandpa
OJ and BBQ
Bigtuna
Mighty Man
Tyler’s Awesome Wifi (left off the “Perry”)
Refrigerator (forgot the “Perry”)
Oh, and we may have finally found those Forestry majors:
Wood
Green Deer
And the vet school vets. Maybe.
Dove Love & Panda Hugs
Meow House
MeowMeown66
Monkey Wireless
We also found some aspiring art majors, (words aren’t enough for porn addicts):
(-)(-)…boobies
DoubleDs
Pong Lenis
Peyton Manthing
Wireless Girls
FloppyHo
And I think you’ll be able to tell which of these next ones we also found at Creekside:
Fratside
Polo and Pearls
Schwasted
Swag Central
Club 1218 24/7/365
Ham is gay
The Wild Thangs
Natty
However, eventually it got to a point where it was hard to put any of them together in one category. It was hard to imagine all of them lived within range of each other, actually:
Krustykrab
Sh*t n sparkles
Yo Motha
Watanuki
Small Moose
Griffnasty
Yankee4Life
HairNet
Too Fly for My Wifi
Cutiepatootie
Burgaz
Typhoon
SNEAKERHEAD
Parentals
Where’s Charles?
SuckitTrebek
JustLikeButter
… and lastly, and most yesly, Cecil Newton’s Traphouse. Whatever that’s supposed to mean.
