An ad campaign alerting users to this shocking reality was aired during the Super Bowl and was so effective that most addicts have sworn off drugs until such time as their purchase will once again support the U.S. government.

UCSD A LITTLE BIT COOL By Elijah Zarlin Managing Editor UC SAN DIEGO—Students attending Club Ritmo’s Friday night hip hop show were shocked to discover that UCSD was actually a little bit cool, university officials announced early Saturday morning. “This is good news,” said UCSD Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs Joe Watson. “Until this point, it has been the formal position of both the university’s administration and its students that there was nothing cool about UCSD whatsoever. I know it seems extraordinarily unlikely, but it’s beginning to appear as if that might change.” The event featured upcoming and cool hip hop act Xecutioners—as opposed to washed-up and uncool artists such as Coolio, Toné Loc or Robert Van Winkle—and many students came early to participate in and watch the surprisingly cool BBoy Battle. In the days since the show, popular notions that UCSD holds a very low spot on the cool-o-meter have been challenged, as many students have begun to share Watson’s optimism and surprise about UCSD’s future prospects for coolness. “We’re definitely a little less uncool today than we were before the show on Friday,” said attendee Brian Moss. “I mean, that
show was kinda’ cool. It was really weird—I mean, for a second I thought I was at UCLA.” “I don’t get it at all,” said another attendee. “I was at UCSD, and yet I saw b-boys both popping and locking. It was not uncool in the slightest. And it was at UCSD!” In attendance at the cool show at UCSD were many surprisingly attractive, well-dressed and socially unawkward students. “This stands in stark contrast to what we can typically expect,” said A.S. programming staff member Aaron Chung. “In the past few years, if anybody came to these events at all, they were usually ugly, uncool people, who would stand silently in the corner, lingering in the filth of their own poor dental hygiene. But that’s been changing. I wonder where all those students went...maybe to UC Davis?” Promotion of the recent idea that UCSD might be a little cool has not been limited to students. During the show, X-ecutioners DJ Mista Sinista prompted the crowd to “makes some noise,” and when they did, he responded, “yeah, ya’ll cool.” “When Sinista said that,” said Revelle second year Charles Benitez, “I knew that it would be one of the few nights in my UCSD career that I didn’t go home, drink alone, and ponder swallowing my shotgun. I mean, that was cool. Yeah.” The many students who were

As many UCSD students and publications have noticed, a rivalry has recently been developing between UCSD and Davis. Most commentators claim that the rivalry has sprung from both the
similarities in the two University of California campuses’ athletics programs and the fact that everyone enrolled at Davis didn’t get into UCSD. “I hate San Diego,” said Davis

Davis team captain Marian Okano, who also didn’t get into UCSD, is excited to play her new rival. “I can’t wait to show those UCSD snobs what’s up. Those brainiacs are gonna get smashed.” Okano also added that she was “really, really dumb.” UCSD Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs Joe Watson, expressed his pleasure with the growing rivalry. “Competition is a healthy, normal part of an educational experience,” Watson said. “I certainly look forward to seeing UCSD demolish those retarded hayseeds.” “Davis isn’t so bad,” said Warren freshman Elisa Marie Gonzales. Gonzales, who plays on the UCSD softball team and is also active in numerous service-oriented student organizations, sympathized with the position of the Davis students. “You can’t really hate them,” she said. That’d be like hating your developmentally challenged sister.”

Groundwork Books embraces capitalism By James Meeker Content Editor Groundwork Books, the student-run bookstore known for its welcoming embrace of leftist ideology, announced Thursday that it will be abandoning its socialist policies in favor of a more practical capitalist business strategy. “I just woke up one morning and thought, ‘Oh my God, this socialism bullshit is ridiculous’,” said John Hogan, former Groundwork employee and CEO of the newly restructured Groundwork Enterprises, Inc. “For years, Groundwork Books operated under the principles of a collective community, in which each person is able to take responsibility for his own actions, and make decisions in a non-hierarchical setting. In our naivete, we failed to see that this led to inefficiency, poor customer service, and abominable personal hygiene.” According to Hogan, Groundwork Enterprises, Inc.
will use the UCSD Bookstore as a model for its future business practices. “Ever since I started working at Groundwork, we fought against the oppressive corporatism of the UCSD Bookstore,” said Groundwork employee Shawna Rascon. “But when I actually went there, I was amazed at what I saw. It’s well lit and clean, and the books are organized so that it’s easy to find what you’re looking for. The cashiers are helpful and friendly, and the lines don’t wrap around the building. It’s a perfect example of how a bookstore should be run, and a sharp contrast to the mismanaged debacle that was Groundwork Books.” Not all of the employees of Groundwork Books view the restructuring in a positive light. “How could our brothers abandon their commitment to a socialist future,” lamented Aaron, former Groundwork employee and member of the New Indicator collective. “Together we marched down La Jolla Village Drive to protest the mistreatment of Columbian political dissidents. Together we congregated in
Things heard in line for Lord of the Rings
the Price Center, and chanted in unison to demand the release of Mumia Abu-Jamal. We even joined together to burn the writings of conservative authors David Horowitz and Dan Flynn, so that our beliefs could not be challenged by open debate on controversial topics. I just don’t understand how they could have strayed from their devotion to a liberal, if slightly close-minded, society.” While the primary reason for the corporatization of Groundwork Books was to increase efficiency and provide a better shopping experience for UCSD students, a desire to be free of radical social politics also influenced the decision, according to Hogan. “I went into Groundwork and looked at all the propaganda– posters of Che and Mandela and Mumia–and I just thought to myself, ‘Who gives a damn about these guys?’” said Hogan. “I’m tired of thinking that everything my government does is part of an intricate conspiracy to oppress its people. I’m tired of taking posi-

Not-so-cute-anymore cat replaced by much more adorable kitten By Daniel Baron Staff Writer GREENWICH, N.J – Freddy the cat, longtime pet of the Furguson family was unceremoniously discarded last week so that an absolutely adorable kitten named Mittens could take his place as the family pet. “We really didn’t have anything against Freddy,” stated father Bob Furguson. “It’s just that now that he’s gotten to be five years old, he no longer engages in any cute kitten-type activities, like playing with large balls of yarn or getting stuck in paper bags. So we put him into a pillow case and hucked him off a bridge.” Other members of the family were also quick to support the abrupt change of pets. “Freddy was a kind and loving cat but all he had done recently is sleep, eat, and be a loyal friend to me,” remarked family mother Ruth Furguson. “And he left cat hair

MQ editor sends shout out to financial suppor s supportter ers By Colin Parent Editor in Chief In a move that surprised few and inspired many, MQ Editor Colin Parent floated his props to ASUCSD Vice President of Finance Sam Shooshtary and ASUCSD Commissioner of Communications, Catherine Algeri, in this, the latest issue produced by UCSD’s most-loved humor paper. “I just wanted my buddies up there with A.S. to know that I’m lookin’ out for them,” said Parent, about his most recent move to secure continued funding for the MQ in the quarters to come. SOFAB, the board that recommends allocation amounts to student organizations, is scheduled to meet within the coming weeks, and Parent, who is not above shamelessly kissing ass for the sake of his organization, says the

on my bed during that three year period he spent by my side while I was fighting cervical cancer.” Meanwhile, the Furgusons say Mittens has already busied himself with cute, kittentype activities that his prede-
cessor had neglected. “Just the other day, for example, Mittens somehow got himself stuck inside the dryer and emerged a little ball of fluff, resulting in expressions of ‘awwwww’ from all of us,” said Candy Furguson, the oldest daughter.
“See, that’s what I mean,” observed Mr. Furguson. “Cute stuff like that more than makes up for that time Mittens took a shit on our kitchen table while Reverend Brown was visiting for Sunday dinner.” During further questioning,
Man declares girlfriend a football fan; girlfriend profoundly disagrees By Liz Erwin Design Editor CALEXICO, CA –Area man Gerry O’Neil was disappointed late Sunday, when girlfriend Regina Carrow denied to family and friends his claims that she enjoyed both Monday Night Football and Ultimate Fighting tournaments. “But you do,” said O’Neil in response to his girlfriend’s allegations that his statement was both “asinine” and “untrue.” According to Carrow, the misunderstanding stems from a few tactical untruths early in their relationship. “He wouldn’t have let me crush his will to live, or dominate his life if he knew I hated football and kiddy porn. I let him believe I adored him as he was so that I could change him to my liking. He’s very confused right now, having realized that ‘I love everything about you’ does not mean ‘I love everything you love.’” O’Neil continued to reject girlfriend Carrow’s view of his opinions. “How can she hate football? We watch it all day Sunday, and we even have a standing date at Hooters to watch Monday Night Football. We don’t really do much outside of football. Saying she hates football is like saying she hates me.”

MQ is prepared. “We’re looking to maintain our current level of funding, or maybe even increase it, if those wonderful folks up there in the Price Center deem it appropriate.” The MQ is also funded by Muir College Council, and is itself mentioned in Parent’s shout out. “I love Muir,” said Parent. “Really.” Muir College Council Chair Liz Erwin appreciated the sentiment, and suggested the MQ had “good things in its future.” MQ Managing Editor Elijah Zarlin has also made efforts to make friends with the power brokers at UCSD. “I used to have this problem with Eisha, the totally kickass programmer on A.S. But we did our schmooze thing, and now we’re pals. She’s great. We’re totally getting funded.”

Above is a graph created by Carrow to demonstrate her actual desires.
Carrow said that while she isn’t unhappy, she wants to “stop watching ESPN, WWF, Skinimax and the Spice Channel,” and then revealed a new plan for their leisure time management. The new plan would shift the emphasis of their relationship from football and sex to shopping, candlelit dinners and romantic comedies, a move
which Carrow called “best for everyone.” O’Neil, however, refused to acknowledge Carrow’s proposal. “There is no way Regina could have developed these plans. She doesn’t like any of those things. Besides the sex. Oh boy, does she like the cock. This is just a hormonal swing due to her new birth control pills,” said O’Neil.
O’Neil hopes this will all blow over soon, as it has resolved with previous conflicts. “We’ve been through this before with the poker night, the new Harley and my lingerie habit. Regina just doesn’t know what she wants. Like the first night we watched football, I knew that ‘no’ meant ‘I want another beer.’”

Party-goers refuse to believe keg is empty By Elijah Zarlin Managing Editor Attendees of UCSD student Tara Bartlet’s 22nd birthday party reacted with disbelief and skepticism late Saturday to the news that the keg was empty. The keg of Miller Light beer, which had been purchased earlier in the afternoon from Mission Bay Liquor in Pacific Beach for $45 plus deposit, lasted less than two hours at the hands of the over 50 thirsty college students. Though emptied at 11:05 p.m., it was not until much later that the emptiness of the keg was actually accepted by the saddened crowd. Indeed, despite being repeatedly told of the disappointing state of the empty keg by UCSD student Brianna Martinez, partygoers were reluctant to accept the announcement, displaying doubt that the empty keg was actually finished. Martinez, who happened to be standing next to the empty keg conversing with a few friends about the insufficient state of the group’s inebriation, repeatedly informed others approaching with empty red plastic cups, that there was no more beer to be had. Yet her well-intentioned warnings were totally ignored. “People kept coming up and being like ‘no, it’s not really empty,’” said the disappointingly sober Martinez after the party. “I was like, ‘I swear, it’s empty’ and they were all ‘you just gotta pump it some more. Trust me, there’s more beer in here.’” Continued Martinez, “Finally they were all like ‘shit, this thing is empty.’” Though many attendees including Martinez were disappointed with the lackluster degree of inebriation they were able
to achieve with the free, cheap beer, Martinez seemed more upset by the swift dismissal of the information she had so good-naturedly offered. “I was just trying to save people the time and effort, but no one believed me,” said Martinez, clearly upset by the partiers’ need to go though each and every one of the motions themselves in order to be sure there was no more beer to be had in the empty keg. Martinez recounted a number of different ways in which partygoers added insult to injury as they refused to give credence to the emptiness of the empty keg. After spurning Martinez’s innocent offering that the empty keg was, in fact empty, most students felt the need to tip the empty keg from side to side. When the light weight of the empty keg and absence of the sound of sloshing beer failed to convince them of it’s emptiness, most partiers then felt the need to pump the empty keg as many as 75 times, constantly repeating phrases like “oh, it’s not really empty,” as they watched the empty keg’s tap continue to produce no beer. Yet many were still unconvinced. Running out of ways to produce beer from the empty key, many students felt that the key might lie in turning the keg upside down. Doing so, many were disappointed to discover that nothing continued to flow from the now inverted empty keg. Only then did the students begin to realize that there was, actually, no more beer in the very empty keg. “We should have had two,” said honoree Bartlet, shortly after the emptiness of the empty keg caused most of the partygoers—self described “good friends of the birthday girl” whom Bartlet had never before seen—to leave, well before 1:14 a.m. Sunday morning, Bartlet’s true birthday. Said Bartlet, “Not that it matters to me, I’ve been drunk since 10 a.m. yesterday morning. And by yesterday, I mean like, two days ago.”

My cell phone, like, totally defines my personality By Chazelle Garwood Puts out
In this time of national uncertainty, I’ve talked a number of people going through their own personal crises, people who are asking themselves questions like, “How do I fit into society,” and “What is my identity?” I must admit, I’ve had to deal with some droopy times of doubt myself. But when I’m confronted with insecurities of this nature, I just take a reassuring look at my cellular phone. I don’t know about everyone else, but I find that the accessories I choose for my cell phone represent the solid foundation on which I’ve built my personality. My inspired choices of fun ring tones, flashing antennas, and colorful faceplates never fail to turn my occasional frown upsidedown. When my phone repetitively spouts two measures of my favor-

Man can’t close pop-up porn windows Just wants old life back By Jasmine de Lung Content Editor FRENCH LICK, IN—Area man Orin Harrison was weary and sore Monday, after a harrowing experience with free Internet pornography Sunday night. Harrison, 36, claimed to have always been a magazine man and had never turned to the Internet for material. “I own an extensive collection of Penthouse and Hustler,” bragged Harrision. “I like the butt.” At 6:34pm on February 3, 2002, Harrison signed on to America Online, opened up the search engine Google and typed in ‘Porn’, ‘Sex’, ‘Anal’, and ‘Free’. “I figured that with enough keywords I might be able to find a few sites,” said Harrison. The search engine reported 1,852,000 sites matching those words. After briefly reading each title on the first page of the results, Harrison chose a site advertising hot ANAL SEX and ANAL PORN free anal sex pics free here! now! anal_sex_pics ANALSEX_ANALPORN over TIGHT TINY ASSHOLES TAKE MAMMOTH MEAT POLES, because “it most closely resembled what I wanted.” Harrison took the free tour, and found the pictures to be quite satisfying. “I was finished masturbating in under six minutes, and
was ready for bed,” said Harrison. However, when Harrison tried to close the web site’s window, another popped up, this time advertising barely legal dirty cum-filled teens. “I was intrigued,” said Harrison, “so I clicked on the star covering the good part of the naked girl.” More windows popped up with each mouse click, advertising such things as monster jugs, lesbians, fatty fetishes, ebony fantasies, and farm animals. “At first I thought I was so lucky! It seemed like an endless plethora of free sex pics! So I masturbated again.” Harrison spent seven and a half more hours browsing free pornography sites, and masturbated a total of four additional times. Yet this free porn came at a price. “I shouldn’t have been so greedy,” said Harrison. “At two in the morning, when I got too tired to continue, I tried closing the windows, but more just kept popping up! For every one I closed, three more would appear! I’ve seen every kind of creature have sex with every other kind, fetishes galore, and all the fat, old, big-breasted, leatherbound ass anyone could ever want!” said Harrison as he hung his head in defeat, describing the frustrat-

ing experience. Harrison tried to stay on top of the windows, closing them before they completed loading. “But at
that point, I was in no position to be able to move my hand fast enough,” said Harrison. “There was no way I could keep up with
those windows!” Harrison took the next few days off work. Said Harrison, “I just wanted my old life back.”
Ready to Hump: Pope looks forward to taxin’ and waxin’ it
By Phil Duncan Staff Writer VATICAN CITY – In anticipation of his upcoming death, Pope John Paul II announced Sunday that he is consulting with God regarding the terms of his personal eternal salvation. The most prominent item on the negotiating table is the Holy Father’s compensation, “in bitches,” for 81 years of strict celibacy. “His Holiness didn’t take his vows of chastity lightly,” said papal spokesperson Joaquin Navarro-Valls after the announcement. “It’s only fair that after devoting his entire life to purity and wholesomeness, he should expect a few thousand or so virgins to welcome him into the Kingdom of Heaven.” This latest announcement came after months of what the pope called “personal turmoil and contemplation.” In his address, the pope said, “Although I have denied myself the pleasures of the flesh in this life, I have been repaid by the infinite blessings of the Holy Spirit.” He added, “When I get to Heaven it’ll finally be time to cash those blessings in.”
Although many expressed shock that the Pope would even be considering such issues premortem, several nuns at the Vatican were unsurprised. “I always thought that the Holy See had something like this in mind,” said Sister Marie McDonald in an interview Wednesday. “When I first came to the Vatican to be blessed by his holiness, he eyed me in a very strange way, and I could have sworn I heard him say, ‘Just wait until we get to Heaven,’ under his breath.” As of yet, it is unclear whether the Pope’s heavenly she-angels are to be currently saved souls residing in Heaven, or Angels of the Lord specifically assigned the task of whoring themselves out to the Pope. “I suppose his Holiness can have just about whatever types of bitches he wants,” said Navarro-Valls. “I hear Heaven is just about crawling with them.” One major issue critics have taken with the Pope’s announcement is his lack of doctrinal basis for picking out “personal Heaven bitches.” Ted Parks, a writer for the National Catholic Reporter, called the Pope’s an-

nouncement, “an abuse of Papal privilege and a monopolization of Heavenly hoes.” Navarro-Valls responded, “The pope, through the doctrine of papal infallibility, can really make any decision he wants regarding the
beliefs of the Catholic Church. I’m sure that God would rather grant the Pope’s modest request than contradict the doctrine of his Church on earth.” Whether God agrees or not, the Pope’s request for multitudes of
Heaven’s honeys could have lasting ramifications on the Catholic Church. “No one has ever really set the terms for their salvation before,” said Parks. “God might just decide to forget the whole Heaven thing altogether.”

How can you confuse these two? Martin Luther wears a BERET!!!
By Elijah I. Zarlin Not funny either I’ve heard a lot of people make a lot of stupid jokes and mistakes in my life, but now that it’s Black History Month I think it’s time we get something straight. There’s one joke I can’t tolerate any longer. Look, there’s just nothing funny about confusing Martin Luther and Martin Luther King Jr. In fact, there’s nothing funny about it at all. What’s to be confused? Martin Luther sparked the Protestant Reformation in Germany in 1517. Martin Luther King Jr. was a prominent leader in the American Civil Rights movement of the 1950s and early 1960s. Personally, I don’t see many similarities there, so stop acting like it’s funny to confuse the two. I mean, for Pete’s sake, they stood for totally different things. Martin Luther’s indignation for the establishment of Catholicism was ignited by the doctrine of indulgences, which he felt, with its mechanical view of sin and repentance, constituted an unjustifiable interposition of a worldly power between the individual and god. Martin Luther King Jr.’s abhorrence of the doctrine of racism was ignited by the separationist establishment of segregation in the South, which he felt, with its loathsome treatment of African Americans, was an unjustifiable imposition on goodness, equality, decency, truth, morality and righteousness. Religion versus race,
people. It’s not that hard, so can we cut the crap? Confusing Martin Luther and Martin Luther King Jr. is the furthest thing from funny. Have I mentioned that, while Luther posted his famous 95 theses on the door of the castle church at Wittenberg in Saxony on Oct. 31, 1517, Luther King Jr. didn’t lead the 1965 Selma to Montgomery march until 1965? Seriously, the two happened like 427 years apart. And oh yeah, let’s not forget that Germany is a long way from Alabama. Taking all of this into account, you can see why it’s the opposite of funny to pretend you can’t tell the difference between the guys whose first two names are Martin and Luther. And it’s not like the lack of similarity stops there. Martin Luther’s famous 1520 Address to the Christian Nobility of the German Nation had totally different words than Martin Luther King Jr.’s famous 1963 “I Have a Dream” oration. Additionally, Martin Luther’s failure to reach doctrinal accord with Ulrich Zwingli on the nature of the Eucharist split the reform movement, while Martin Luther King Jr.’s failure to reach doctrinal accord with Alabama Governor George Wallace landed him in the Birmingham jail. With all these differences, it’s just sad, and totally not funny, that people confuse Martin Luther and Martin Luther King Jr. Let’s give these men the respect that their differences deserve. Honestly, there’s no sense confusing Martin Luther King Jr. who was married to Coretta Scott King, with Martin Luther, who was married to a totally different woman named Katherina von Bora. What’s more, Martin Luther King Jr. won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964. Martin Luther never won any prizes, and he was dead in 1964. Seriously, is it funny to confuse Barbara Walters with an obese Grecian eunuch felating a giraffe? It isn’t. So let’s stop doing the same thing with Martin Luther and Martin Luther King Jr.

Pretension found in Arts “You’re wrong” says theater dept. By Brent Hecht Staff Writer The results of sociology professor Sarah Bradshaw’s new study, which finds large degrees of pretension in UCSD’s Music, Visual and Performing Arts departments, was met with snide and pompous comments from UCSD’s Music, Visual Arts and Theater Departments at the study’s release early Thursday. “Pretension?” said UCSD theater professor Daniel Little, calmly pulling a long cigarette out of his mouth. “That’s absurd! The esteemed music, performing and visual arts communities are far
above such sophomoric societal complexes.” A report accompanying the announcement, put together by professors and graduate students led by sociology professor Patrick Glenn, provided detailed evidence to back up the claims of pretension. According to the report, a vast majority of music majors immediately dislike even their own songs once the songs, or “pieces,” become remotely popular. All visual arts majors were proven to have a distinct and instinctive hatred for all types of domestic movies and have an inherent attraction to all types of foreign films, especially those that
depict fetish imagery as art. Similarly, through intense psychological testing, theater students were determined to categorically despise all filmed acting, and even walked out of a videotaped performance of their very own Vagina Monologues. Dr. Little explained this nearuniversal pattern, claiming that, “English is exceptionally unoriginal.” Bradshaw suggestes a steady diet of Jessica Simpson’s music and Freddie Prinze Jr. movies to art and music majors suffering from extreme pretension, in order to alleviate the symptoms of extreme pretension.

Vis Ar ts major “a little disappointing” to grandma “Since when is medical school too much to ask for?” asks matriarch By Brian Uiga Staff Writer
I suffered through the Depression and two Nixon terms for this shit?
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, CA— Grandma Thelma Jane Herk succeeded in making an awkward family dinner even more so last weekend, announcing her continued disappointment in her granddaughter Cassie’s choice to pursue a major in Visual Arts at UCSD. To try and dispel rumors that she was a “slacker” or engaged in “worthless art,” Cassie brought home a recent project, Modern Fertility, for which she received an “A” and a number of positive comments from her peers. Despite a respectful, albeit quiet, reception from the rest of the family, Grandma Herk was
Area man just fine af ter ignoring grandmother’s unsolicited advice By Area Man Bad Grandson DANA POINT, CA—Area man Michael Wise was just fine Monday, despite having disregarded the many warnings given to him by his grandmother during a weekend visit. According to Wise, his maternal grandmother Wendy Gunther took every possible opportunity to offer suggestions, recommendations and cautionary words to her “constantly endangered” grandson throughout the course of his visit. Though he did not heed a single one, Wise survived the weekend completely unscathed. “Every time we left the house she would say something like ‘take a sweater, it’s cold outside,’” said Wise. “But you know what? I didn’t take a sweater, because I
didn’t think I needed one.” Added Wise, “And I wasn’t ever cold.” Mrs. Gunther was also outspoken about a number of other areas of her grandson’s wellbeing, both mental and physical. Wise says that she frequently urged him to eat more food at dinnertime, lest he “waste away.” Though Wise ignored this warning as well, at the end of the weekend, he seemed in no danger of wasting away. “I didn’t want to eat more food, and I didn’t think that eating the right amount of food would result in my subsequent corporeal diminution,” said the 6’2” 185 lb. Nutrition and Literature double major. “And I was right.” Perhaps most upsetting to Wise were a few educational recommendations made by his
grandmother. “She kept encouraging me to study while I was visiting her,” said Wise, “because she said she didn’t want all the ‘Orientals’ to take over. On the one hand, her ignorance is all the motivation I need to study and educate myself. On the other hand, I was kinda pissed at her, so instead of studying, I snuck into her backyard and smoked so much pot I lost control of my urinary sphincter.” After the visit, Mrs. Gunther remained very perturbed by the fact that her grandson hadn’t heeded any of her words of advice. “He’s such a handsome boy!” Gunther said, expressing her deep concern. “And so smart too. He’s going to make an excellent doctor one day.” Added Gunther, “And an excellent husband.” Added Gunther again, “We’re so proud of him. Would you like to see a picture?”
outspoken in her further disappointment, stating that the art project was “nothing but big balloon animals made from condoms.” Unable to take this harsh criticism of her artistic ability, Cassie fled the room immediately. “I don’t know why she was so embarrassed,” said Grandma Herk, adding, “And I hope those condoms have not seen any other use. You know, when I grew up in the Depression only bums did that artistic hoodly-ha. And only bums brought used condoms into my living room.” Cassie was later found crying in the lavatory, mentioning the repeated negative comments from her grandmother as the source of
TOP TEN
her dismay. “I mean, I’m trying to beautify the world, but all Granny can say is that I should be ashamed of myself, spending $15,000 a year of my parents’ money to make toilet paper sculptures.” Despite these objections at home, Cassie plans to continue her work in visual artistry, and hopes one day to engage in “government funded art,” which she sees as her only alternative to starvation. When questioned about other possible career paths while waiting for her big break in the art business, Cassie said that due to the success of Modern Fertility she has been approached with job offers in both clowning and prostitution.

Study shows SUV buyers TOP possess colossal genitalia 20 By Brian Uiga Staff Writer Researchers at Johns Hopkins Medical School announced last week their findings from an exhaustive five-year survey of American males, showing a strong direct relationship between the size of a man’s Sport Utility Vehicle and the enormity
of his penis. This study puts to rest many myths created by owners of Geo Metros. The official press release utilized 65,000 covert interviews in gas station restrooms and highway patrol sobriety tests. Head researcher Dr. Jeremy Kopeki was very enthusiastic about his results: “These findings show great marketing and sales potential, since now we can inform
auto manufacturers approximately how massive the penis of any SUV buyer is. The word on the street: watch out for Cadillac Escolades and Ford Excursions.” The study supports the idea that users of larger SUVs need to engage in highway intimidation, so their enormous genitals may be matched only by their “big dick” attitudes.

Ask an unemplo a unemployyed mall Sant Santa Dear Unemployed Mall Santa – My kids have always told me that I look like Santa Claus, and I haven’t been able to find a job for about 16 years. All my wife seems to be able to do is nag me about getting off the couch. “Austin, get off your drunken, lazy ass, and stop scratching yourself. You disgust my bridge club so much they won’t even meet here. Dammit, get up!” I was thinking that maybe being a mall Santa is the perfect solution. How can I be a mall Santa? –Heckled in New Hampshire Ho, Ho, Ho, Heckled – You think that you can handle being Santa Claus? No one can, except me. I am Santa. Ho, ho, how did I get here? I feel confused right now, and I don’t know why I just woke up next to a dumpster with an empty 40 in my hand. And, damn it, my head hurts. No more answers for you.

Dear Unemployed Mall Santa – I was really, really good all year, then you gave me a half-eaten drumstick and an empty beer bottle. All I wanted was a new Tickle Me Elmo. My sister borrowed mine when her boyfriend was gone for a week, and it never smelled the same. Why didn’t you get me what I wanted? What do I have to do better next year? –A Good Little Boy
Ho, Ho, Ho GLB – If you were good, I would have gotten you what you wanted. A drumstick is a great gift. I wish I had one right now. So stop complaining. And, if you really want a good gift next year, get me a little something from your dad’s liquor cabinet. Goddam, my head hurts. I am living in the dumpster behind the Grosse Point Apartment Building. Get here quick! Merry Christmas. Dear Unemployed Mall Santa – I was just wondering when you are going to move out of the dumpster in the back of my apartment building. When I open my window I can smell the alcohol fumes rising from your filth-encrusted Santa suit. And, it scares me when I am dumping out the trash and hear you muttering “Ho, ho, ho, have you been naughty or nice?” It is February. –Confused Jimmy Ho, Ho, Ho Confused Jimmy – Ho-ho-ho Jimmy, have you been naughty or nice? What do you want for Christmas? Merry Christmas. What was your question again? My head hurts again. Here’s my tall can. I have been looking for you. You finally returned to daddy. “Ask An Unemployed Mall Santa” is syndicated in one newspaper on the UCSD campus.

Tupac is dead Body Beautiful Car Wash
By Tupac Shakur Deceased Rap Artist Hello, my name is Tupac Shakur. I’d like to talk to you now about a subject very close to me my death. In the five years and four months since I was killed, I have noticed many people harboring a great deal of skepticism regarding the legitimacy of my grim demise. This is supremely insulting. Why does everyone still think I’m alive, when I’m not? It’s time to set the record straight. I can assure you without reservation, that I am in fact, 100%, grade A, dead. I mean it. I don’t know how many times I have to tell you people, but I am dead. I realize there are a lot of reasons people still think I’m alive. Somehow, many individuals have taken the fact that I have posthumously recorded and released five albums since my death—more than many artists release in their life—to mean that I’m still alive. This is just stupid. I’m not alive. I’m dead. Still others cite my new name, Makaveli, somehow as a reference to the Italian war strategist and author Machiavelli—a man who, coincidentally, happened to be an advocate of faking one’s death. This is simply preposterous. After I died, I thought it might be fun to pick a new name. I picked
Makaveli, because it sounded like a good name to choose for oneself, if one happened to be dead, which I was. Not once did I ever think about the subtle similarities between my new name, and that of Machiavelli. If this has confused anyone, I am sorry. And still very dead. Also disturbing to me is a spate of web sites devoted to the many bizarre and suspicious circumstances surrounding my death, solely because it was a hazy event utterly shrouded in secrecy. Well, not to me it wasn’t. I was there when I died, and I know it was real because it stung like crazy. If I were alive, there would be no way it could have hurt that much. Well, let me say once and for all that the many far-fetched suppositions regarding my posthumous appearances in multitudes of music videos, album covers, and singing in the background of other artists’ singles, not to mention my own albums, have no grounding in truth and are complete and utter falsehoods. They couldn’t be true, because I’m dead. And no dead man could sing as well as I did on 7 Day Theory. Dear readers, don’t be swayed by the fact that my body was cremated a day after my murder with no autopsy having been performed. Fall not prey to the spine-tingling stories of my sighting in Atlanta not but two days after my supposed “slaying.” I, Tupac Shakur, have bought the farm and no longer dwell among the living. Because I’m dead. This is all I have to say on the matter until the MTV movie about my death is released, where on April 15th, I will not be seen exiting the back of a Los Angeles theater. Thank you, and may God bless you.

Our November 20th issue mistakenly contained an article entitled “Freshman Establishes Anime, Cartoon Porn Fan Club.” We have no explanation as to how this article got into our paper. We’re sorry. Due to a miscommunication with our fact checker, last issue’s info graphic incorrectly stated that during elementary school, you were picked last 29% of the time at Four-Square. In actuality you picked last 94% of the time at Four-Square. We would like to apologize to the poor students of UC Davis. We’re sorry you weren’t accepted here: it’s because you are dumb. The MQ also wishes to retract any statements we have made regarding our relationship with
Enron Corp. or their auditor, Arthur Anderson. In fact, no such relationship exists and the MQ never gave any accounting advice to Anderson or any of its subsidiaries. Our current issue mistakenly identifies 20 humorous things to do while being naked. In actuality, there are only 19 humorous things to do while naked. “Choose Pepsi” should have been omitted from the list, but wasn’t. Suck it.
