Letter From The Editor

Welcome to the coveted Editor’s Note for the Faucet’s final edition of the year. I thought I’d go over some of my favourite stories from each of this year’s editions.

In the “Welcome Issue” the Faucet picked enemies not just with the other publications of McGill but also nations around the world. An Emirati student expressed interest in writing for the Faucet at a club event, until he saw our jokes about bloody Saudi Arabian oil and looked at me with sadness in his eye and said “I got family in the Middle East, Bro,” and left never to be seen again.

The “Controversial Issue” stayed on brand and got our humble editor-in-chief into some good old trouble. Fear not, Faucet readers, for I am here to stay. There’s a reason I never criticize the EUS, these engineers I publish with can’t get enough of me! My best moment at this gig was when the president of the EUS said she knew I wasn’t in engineering as I was “too funny to be an engineer.” So if you want to earn compliments from your superiors, come write for the Faucet!

The “Whatever Issue” is what brought together the largest team of Faucet writers thus far. I have one serious qualm with the issue and that was the inclusion of a comic making an erection joke. I’m not against silly humour every now and then, been now that comic is one of the first images that Google shows when my name is searched up. So thank you, Faucet, for ruining my chances of being hired even more than my Arts degree had done.

In this issue, find the field of duck studies, asbestos in the walls (naturally), a cry for help, and the French. Enjoy the issue and assuming I don’t get fired by next semester, the Faucet and I will see you then. Follow us on instagram in the meantime
