So, the paper had it's annual budget meeting last week. Ever since we uncovered that the football team was hazing its freshman members, they've had it in for us. Several members joined the student government hoping for this opportunity - to slash our budget, deal with hard times.

One of those dumb fucks suggested that we could cut printing costs by NOT printing any more papers, and going totally on-line. Possibly, the stupidest idea I've ever heard for a newsPAPER. Not only would it be suicide for our readership, but it would destroy us as an organization on campus. No one would be interested in writing for us since no paper would take our articles seriously on a resume like they do now. Basically, he was trying to get us to shut down competely.

Well, it failed. The rest of the SGA basically laughed at him, and we actually got an increase in our budget for the coming year for very necessary software and computer upgrades.

In last week's issue, I decided it would be fun to get back at him a bit. So, I drew a cartoon for the comics page with a football player playing Madden on PS2, with a caption that said, "Due to budgetary constraints, FSC was forced to cut its athletic budget." And the football player (decked out in helmet and pads while playing a videogame) exclaims, "Dude, we RULE at Madden On-Line!"

Part of the joke there is that they only won a single game in the last two seasons, and they're in danger of losing their Varsity status.

But anyway, now they're all upset. The guy who suggested the budget issue got really upset, and now wants to have a "meeting" with me and Student Involvement. i think they're going to try and get me to resign from the paper. But frankly, fuck that. It's not MY fault that he's a whiny baby bitch! So I'm looking forward to this meeting. It's going to be fun, because I'm gonna rip that sumbitch apart!

Maybe your next cartoon should be a baby in a football outfit crying and yelling "I never get my way" as the paperboy walks by and says "Dude! Lighten up!"

The ironic part here, is that he "joc" joined the "nerds" in an effort to outsmart them, but apparently did nothing more than embarass himself.

It's kinda like the stereotypical nerd standing up to the bully joc that's picking on him, and getting the stuffing beat out of him for his troubles. Well, I'd say this would qualify as the opposite. Truly classic

They've only won one game of rugby? That's terrible!
