Letters to the Editor: V58 2nd Edition

Heeelloo again Innis! Did you miss me?
Welcome to the second issue in Volume 58 of the Innis Herald!! This one has more articles, more
new columns, more fun, more pizzazz, more chaos (and fewer mistakes).

Yeah, the last issue had some slight errors, but as we at the Herald like to say, “It was just the first pan-
cake :)” Now, get ready for the best stack of sugary soft sweetness you’ve ever laid your eyes on.

Oh, before I let you dive into the delicious stack of pancakes I’ve apparently decided to compare this
paper to, we have some letters to open!
Dear Innis Herald,
Wow. You are absolutely amazing. Like literally the best paper on campus. WOW.
–Realperson Notyash
Dear Realperson,
Thank you so much! We’re glad you enjoyed the paper 🙂
Dear Herald,
Your paper smells REALLY good.
The articles are nice too I guess.
Thanks.

Hey Anotherrealperson! Thanks?

WE LOVE THE MIKE. You have some AMAZING articles!!! –The Innis Herald
Thank you so very much to all of you beautiful people out there who took the time to give our little
paper a read! We’ve heard your compliments, your praise, and your applause. To all our lovely fans,
we love you back. And to all our angry haters, we love you too:
Gracious Greetings,
My name is Jamie, I am a riveted reader of your pristine paper and I come to the esteemed exec email
this night with a grievance of a gripe. Your poor product is lacking down clues for the crossword. It is
an outrageous omission of audience amusement. I have scoured every link, image, and pixel on your
wearisome webpage and yet I could not locate an entailed erratum of this errant error. I am now left
sulking in my seat, unable to fill in the rigid rows that ridicule me with their blankness. I implore you
to implement an appropriate amendment.
A felicitous farewell to you, Jamie Yi
Thank you, Jamie, for your wonderfully worded letter. Reading your rib-tickling write-up was
truly a delight. But to you, and every other Innisian who has so passionately expressed their disdain at
the lack of down clues for the crossword last issue, all we have to say is we are sorry. We are sorry, we
overestimated you. We are sorry, you aren’t better at solving crosswords.
Our only fault was having faith, faith that the Innis community would rise up to this unique challenge
of solving the crossword with just the across clues. We thought you were smarter than this, smarter
than the average crossword solver. We believed in our hearts that you would appreciate the increased
challenge, the intellectual stimulation.

With finals season nearly upon us, know this dear reader. The world
(and your professors) will challenge you in new, unexpected ways.
Your knowledge, your understanding, your ability to think creatively
and solve crosswords despite missing down clues will be put to the
test. Dear Innisian, even if you are one insignificant inconvenience
away from a complete breakdown, just remember: The leaves may
have fallen, as the snowflakes now do, but that doesn’t mean, your
GPA will too.
We at the Innis Herald believe in you. May the force be with you. May
the odds be ever in your favour. Hakuna Matata. Just keep swimming.
Yibambe.
‘Tis the season to be jolly, Falalalala we hate finals.
Ok go read the paper now. Byeeee
Your EIC, Yash Kumar Singhal
PS: I think I should address the “Herald Heist” where someone took
our ENTIRE STACK OF PAPERS from Innis residence- Hey Paper
Pirate, we are so happy that you loved the paper that much!!! It’s a
massive compliment, thank you 🙂
