Bwog’s favorite publication, the Spectator‘s poetry-and-photography spin-off, 116, is baaack! In case you haven’t had enough of the “not quickspec” tag today, here are some more links to click.
Look at these people, they are hip!
And look at the things they do with their fancy cameras!
– Thing 1
– Thing 2
– Thing 3
Girls have feelings! Golf clap.
– Girl 1
– Girl 2
– Girl 3
…and Spec EIC avows, “but I am no poet.”

@this is a disgrace and an insult to any competent poet or artist. If you’re going to throw an online magazine like this together in two days, its probably better if you don’t do it.
@yo asswipe Chill the fuck out. If it offends your delicate sensibilities so much, just don’t read it.
Besides, some of the photos are pretty respectable.
@PRIMAL SCREAM AND PILLOW FIGHT!!! PILLOW FIGHT SUNDAY NIGHT MIDNIGHT
@Astor Nightshift Typical Things Overheard on Orgo Night:
“Excuse me you are stepping on my laptop. I’m trying to write an essay! You’re backspacing! Please! Why are you on my table? I’ve had this table for three weeks. It’s my baby. DON’T YOU SCUFF IT, WHORE!”
“Shit, now how am I going to find that book on the eleventh century?”
“MILSTEIIIIIIIN!!!!!”
“Wait… Isn’t Orgo next Thursday?”
@i believe primal scream isn’t til sunday at midnight. and 14, CUMB does that every year in celebration of the orgo final
@annoyed the marching band is fucking annoying. I don’t understand why orgo night has to be a tradition. How about “the marching band shuts the fuck up night”
@oh no! I forgot to scream!
Then again, every semester the scream has occurred, finals have NOT gone well for me. It is a sign! no scream —> success?
@No no Silly, the Primal Scream is Sunday night.
@pissed someone with a final in 7 hours who’s not in the mood to hear Sousa’s greatest hits
@are you surprised?

@pissed why is there a marching band outside? wtf is with columbia kids and their constant need to make noise at 1am during finals?
@who are you? a security guard or something?
@gosh i think a lot of the photos are great and a few of the poems are really good too. i mean, it’s college poetry, and they threw the magazine together in like a week…but compared to something like echoes, given two people did it in a few days its not half bad. in fact a lot of it is quite nice.
@mediocrity college poetry does not need to look like this.
@well the poetry is, all around, pretty horrid, but a lot of the photos are interesting.
@jeez i cant believe these people are serious. yikes, I feel like I’m in a bad period piece made about 2008 in 2134.
@This would be a bad period piece:

@this is simply embarrassing. wow. there is absolutely nothing in here of any value whatsoever. the spec should stick to its mediocre reporting so as not to offend the artistic sensibilities of columbians.
@John Jay don’t you guys me QUALITRAY?
@At least Between frame 5 and 6 of “Thing 1”, you see where Phil Hughes fractured his rib. His future self elbowed himself right there.
@wait so this ISN’T a parody?
@hold on is this a real publication? Are these poems/photos meant to be taken seriously? I understand that bwog is making fun, but is the whole thing a joke, or just funny because its kinda dumb?
@oh no it’s very real.
@Explanation For those who are a bit thick:
Bwog is being facetious because the whole thing is actually pretty dumb. The deliberately misspelled “Qualitay” label serves to reinforce this conclusion.
@ddd Hmmm, I don’t really get the “qualitay” logo… is it a spelling mistake?
@Bwog is funny THis is glorious! And get with the pace, #1, Bwog’s jerking yer chain
@wait.. how is it that THIS is bwog’s favorite publication?… of all the publications on campus? in the world? is this an official bwog position?
