We headed to Butler to see what our fellow classmates had to say. Outside “Forever 21 tbh.” “I […]

“Me, me, MEEEE!!!” Donald Trump’s granddaughter screams to me from a few feet away.  She wants to be swirled around the pool in dizzying circles like the other girl I babysat at the golf club.  Which isn’t particularly interesting except in order to get to me she has to break the grasp from two other […]

Sup dudes. What’s going on. How’s it hangin’.What’s crack-a-lackin’. (No question marks needed because we’re too cool for those.) Anyway, we’ve been hangin’ in Lerner 505 lately, like pretty much every Sunday night. It’d be so chill if you joined us. But of course, it’s totally up to you. Catch ya in SGO at 7pm. Be […]

Yoko is free! … from the Mount Sinai West, after being hospitalized for some bad flu symptoms. (CBS News) Vicente Fox, former president of Mexico, says there’s no way in hell he’s paying for Trump’s wall. Well, actually, he used a different expletive.

Since we sent a BC first-year to JJ’s Place for the first time, it seemed only fair to also do the opposite: send a CC upperclassman to Hewitt for the first time. So, does Hewitt pizza live up to the rumors? Why does anyone go to Hewitt? Where even is Hewitt? We have (at least some) […]

It’s that time of night–when the moody and lonely Columbia student within you comes out, and you decide to drunkenly take a walk to “clear your head” or whatever. Here’s a playlist for lying(/meditating/crying/sobering up) on the sundial. Try to refrain from shouting “Take me now!” to the heavens (been there, done that). Kifak Inta by […]

Disclaimer: I wish the following were inspired by real events. Ever wonder what your professors are doing when they aren’t making you pay laughable amounts of money on textbooks or assigning so much work that you don’t have any me time (wink wink) anymore? Do you think they grade your papers on time? lol no […]
