In The origins of the Den of Slack are shrouded in mystery. (Would any [[crusty]] people care to enlighten us?) Here are the Dens of recent history: * 2002-2003 : The primary Den of Slack was the north- 2004central common room on the third floor of Fitch, the common room of Evan Hiller '03. However, the true Den sprawled across most of the third floor of Fitch, including one entire common room dedicated to Warhammer tables, and another, the first year common room of [[Josh Ain]] and [[Rachelle Hassan]] '03, in which Josh's original card [[game]], [[Jonathan LandsmanThesis (card game)|IThesis]] encountered , was developed. This year's Den was also notable for a couch so thoroughly destroyed by generations of college students that it had to be laid on its side to be functional. * 2003-2004: The Den was located across the term central section of first-floor Fitch. The north-central common room (home of Jon Hendrickson '04, Evan Gee '04, and Hale Simon '05) was the placemain den of slack, the Den was located with furniture and television firmly in the place. The [[Fitch]] 1st floor south-central common room, whose adjoining rooms were home to Zach Kung '04, Hale Simon '05, Niko White '04, served as an annex and Magic card repository. When [[Kat Jong ]] '07 abandoned her [[Lehman]] [[entry]] in [[Fall 2003]] to sleep in a corner of the Den -- one of few such relocations not for purposes of sex -- the Den of 2003-4 was distinguished in having a permanent resident. * 2004-2005: The official Den of Slack was Fitch 206, home of [[Jeff Dougherty '05]] and [[Jake Mandel '05]], but was relatively empty due to Jeff's thesis crushing his slack time like a grape. This Den was notable for its focus on folding nylon lawn furniture. While this Den hosted audiovisual presentations of WARPly interest (mostly Buffy and Firefly), actual socialization generally took place across the hall, in Ben Steinhurst '05 and [[Zach Sullivan '05]]'s common room, which featured actual furniture. * 2005-2006: This year, the Den has remained in Fitch 206 as the common room has been taken over by [[Amanda R. Van Rhyn '06]] and Caroline Toy '06. It remains a relatively quiet space but is entirely functional for a wide range of WARP activities. Most of the furniture is real (and much of it is inherited from '05s), but the Jeff and Jake Memorial Lawn Chair serves as a monument to the Dens of the past.

The Den of Slack is a sink for productivity -- a siren's call to [[WARPies]] and those like them. It is not ''designed'' to serve this purpose -- designing things takes effort -- it merely comes to be. Why hasn't that Senior Prospect resident not applied to grad school yet? The Den of Slack. Why is there, at all hours of the day, always someone sleeping in the first floor common room of Fitch? It's the Den of Slack. What keeps the [[Odd Quad|Odd Quadders]] under wraps? The Den of Slack: at once the pinnacle and the chasm, the heartwood and its decay, eternally the source of balance in the Odd Quad.

Every inhabitant of the Den of Slack has been a beautiful and unique snowflake. (Yes, even Evan Gee.)
