Our web-staffers
wrote the following "about" text during a
period of low morale. We are much happier now. But if
ever we are blue, we click back here to realize how
truly lucky we are. We encourage you to do the same.
On
Brown University's unfunny and often anti-funny campus,
what does it mean to create a humor magazine? In any
social interaction, we Jugglers come across either as
witty, likeable kids, or as monsters, bloodsucking abominations.
Sometimes we drive around in our fleet of little posh
jags, dressed to the nines and revered as the toast
of the campus. Other times we roam the campus in a pack,
attacking other students with our trusty sticks.
It's
a weird kind of double life we lead. We swing back and
forth between calling our layout slaves 'Igor' and 'Jeeves'.
I might say, "Igor! The damn magazine is coming
out tomorrow at 9 am, and you better get your little
hunch moving if you're going to make it in time!"
And then the next morning I'd be like, "Jeeves,
jolly good job on the letters page layout. Buy you a
scotch at Oliver's?"
The
Brown Jug was founded in 1920 and is published quarterly
by students of Brown University.
Huh.
Well, here's something: The Harvard Demon has linked
us on their links page. We are therefore obligated to
link them from ours. We have no links page. Here, Demon!
Harvard's
Humor Magazine. "No, the OTHER one."
