An Environmentally Friendly Apology
Gloriana Xia would like to apologize for not mentioning her actual club name - Green Campus Initiative - enough in her announcements. Especially during the last one. She usually makes them up in the announcements line and sometimes forgets little details.

Welcome to Thursday
Things that are happening on Thursday: Tree lighting ceremony! Things that are happening the day after Thursday: Formal!

Christmas-Themed Lyrics Quiz
Fast away the old year passes
Fa la la la la la la la la
Hail the new ye lads and lasses
Fa la la la la la la la la
Sing we joyous all together
Fa la la la la la la la la
Heedless of the wind and weather
Fa la la la la la la la la

Slow Burn
Props to Ms. Caffrey for her clever announcement dissing Dan. Significantly less props to Nessa for acknowledging the Tower.

Non-Christmas Themed Lyrics Quiz
Through timeless words and priceless pictures
We’ll fly like birds not of this earth
And the tides they turn and hearts disfigure
But that’s no concern when we’re wounded together

Midterms
Swiggity swag, you all got this in the bag.

Wear Christmas ties, sweaters, and socks with your dress uniform!!! Swag!!

SUN ANIMALS PART 2: SUNFISH ARE THE ABSOLUTE WORST
By: Colin Garon (Is not a fan of sunfish)
                A few weeks ago, I wrote an article praising sun bears for being the best creatures to walk this earth. Today, I write an article condemning the worst animals ever: sunfish.

                As you can see from the above picture, sunflish are singularly nasty. They’re like someone stepped on a flabby gray raisin and then added two fins at the top. This is the fish that couldn’t get a date to fish Formal, because who would want to be seen at Formal with a sunfish?!?! That’s right, no one. Not even you. You might think that you’re openminded and welcoming, but you’re not. Don’t lie to yourself. If a sunfish asked you to Formal, you would say no.
 

Pictured above is a sunfish trying to get a glamor shot with a bunch of kelp. It’s not working, because that sunfish is still ugly. Instead of saying “I am a mildly attractive sunfish who really has his life together,” this picture screams “I am an ugly disgusting sunfish who is ruining a picture of some pretty swaggy kelp.”

Things that are wrong with this picture:
1)       There’s a lot of empty space, which is a little weird.
2)       THERE IS A SUNFISH IN THE PICTURE NO NO BAD NO

So there you have it, kids. Sunfish are gross and terrible. They are floppy grey vertical sea pancakes and I hate them. I’m Colin Garon, and I approve this message.
