Senior Staff Writer Writes Comic

Posted on: April 13th, 2019

Alright, I’m gonna be honest here – I can’t draw. I mean, if I had any artistic talent, wouldn’t I be the Graphics Director? I specialise in diction and syntax, so let me paint you a word-comic.   A four-panel comic composed of equal-sized rectangular panels.   Panel 1 – A turtleneck-clad Steve Jobs stands […]

Point-Counterpoint: Matthew vs. Spencer

Posted on: April 9th, 2019

Well, obviously Matthew is the better Senior Staff Writer. I mean he wrote most of the last Toike and probably most of this one.   Hey, that’s no fair. Spencer helped too.
