Tyranny of the Gates

            In my time as a college student I have learned many things from many classes, but the most important thing that I have learned is: Bill Gates hates me! Well, at least Microsoft Word does, but I’m pretty sure Bill Gates had something to do with that. The reasons I believe this start when I first open the Microsoft Word program and what do I behold? A default setting of Calibri font and the size is set to 11 ! Why? This is absurdity of the highest order and I refuse to continue to tolerate the madness. I have only used Times New Roman with size 12 font and every person I know uses this setting and every teacher/professor/instructor I have ever had has demanded I use this font set-up. However, Bill Gates has yet to rectify this gross injustice and therefore I can only conclude that he must hate me.             This is not the only grievance forced upon me by the...

Humor Seeker

The time has come for my final story involving uncontrollable laughter. My brother, my friend Caleb, my other friend Madeline, and I were playing a board game called Fortune Seeker one night my senior year of high school.

I’m not sure why, but if something is funny, then it is ten times funnier when you’re extremely tired. Anyways, there is one mechanic of the board game called hostile takeover.

When the game had finished (I believe Walter ended up winning that night), Madeline went on quite a long rant about how we stole all of her stuff and destroyed all hope she had of winning....

Laughing in a Void

            I don’t know if you have seen it or if you even care, but Saturday Night Live has recently been airing “at home” episodes. It has been an interesting couple of episodes. They do their sketches by either recording themselves alone or recording zoom calls/facetimes and using that to adapt to the new environment.             The intriguing part of these episodes is the lack of audience. There is something strange about performing comedy to an audience that does not exist. The sketches do okay because they the sketch format is not that dependent on the audience, the comedic music videos do the best, but the Weekend Update portion of the show is where the show loses some of its comedic sensibilities. This is because Weekend Update is essentially stand-up comedy and thus thrives the best in the presence of a live audience. A live audience adds a lot of things to comedy...
