HumorMarch 19, 2018
Funny how life doesn’t surprise you at all and happens exactly how you imagined it If you have seen the movie “Lady Bird,” then you have probably heard of UC Davis.

Humor: Toddler starts studying and drinking to keep up with competitive workforce
HumorMarch 15, 2018
2 years old and no internship? Is he even trying? One local toddler is a total failure. He’s 2 years old, and he’s barely made a LinkedIn. It’s like he didn’t even read all of those articles about how much more competitive the job market is getting. It’s almost like he can’t even read at […]

HumorMarch 12, 2018
Administrative bloat goes bye-bye This tape was found in a deep, dark room, hidden in the bowels of Wellman Hall: “I walked into the room, and all I could hear was a chanting, rhythmic and cyclical. ‘Guuuuuunnnrooooooccckk… Guuuuuuuuuuunnnroooooccckkk…’ echoed off the walls of this godforsaken corner of Wellman Hall.” The tape skipped, crackling slightly. “I […]

Humor: I LIVED IT: I survived being mansplained to
HumorMarch 12, 2018
And I lived to tell the tale Last week, I thought I was going to die. Not because my questionable habits of drinking 17 cups of ShareTea boba per day or sleeping 30 minutes a week had finally caught up with me, but because I was mansplained to. It started out innocently enough, as most […]

HumorMarch 12, 2018
A new take on multitasking You’ve heard of hackers, you’ve heard of the CoHo and you’ve probably heard of “Coho Hacks.” But what you probably haven’t heard of is a combination of the three. My job today is to explain what any of that means. Commonly, when people refer to CoHo hacks, what they mean […]

Humor: Everyone groans as English major makes another Freud joke when asked for his ID
HumorMarch 5, 2018
Shut the hell up, Ned Ned was feeling good today. He had the best joke ever for the bus guy. He loved the bus guy, and he loved riding the bus, and most of all he loved any opportunity he could get to show how much he knew about the 20th-century psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud. He […]

Humor: The trials and tribulations of being a coffee shop in downtown Davis
HumorMarch 4, 2018
A tale of alliances and betrayal Coffee shops come and go. And while some people have personal attachments to certain cafes, the rest of the Davis population has come to accept the nature of the coffee shop industry in Davis. What does this mean? It means $7 for an espresso drink mixed with weird rules […]

HumorMarch 2, 2018
UC Davis resorts to as-seen-on-TV ads to solve its age-old debacle Like a tween with a face full of acne and a million hormones doing the can-can, the arboretum’s algae holds it back from achieving true confidence. No amount of cleaning has been able to alleviate its surface flaws. However, one brave economics minor, Chad […]
