Dear Readers,
1/3 of the editors in chief here and 1/2 of the founding team. I wanted to take a moment to express how much this paper and you all reading it has meant to me. I seem to be graduating this semester (also known as right now.) so, I thought I’d take the chance to share my gratitude.
Read MoreOkay, look, we’re gonna be vulnerable and just come right and say it: we feel left out. So much shit has happened at Chapman recently, and it feels like we haven’t been a part of it.
Like, last week, when Chapman Republicans posted their manifesto about how The Panther is “fake news” but didn’t acknowledge that we are literally fake news. Fucking rude. Do we not make fun of you enough? Is that it? Okay… harsh note, but we’ll take that into consideration for future issues. You do make a good point at the end though, the school should cut funding to The Panther, so they could give it to us instead! Right now, our yearly stipend is one instagram post from Jerry Price when we leave an issue outside his office. We’d appreciate a few extra dollars, so that our writers can stop having the highest membership dues on campus (orange paper ain’t cheap).
Read MoreBOO! Did we scare you? Were we too fucking scawwy? This is a scawwy surprise issue, because say it with us... Spooky! Is ! Cancelled! Anyways, midterms suck and so does confronting a crush who :( So, we made the back side of this issue super silly and interactive as hell. Go have fun! Take a load off! Blow your load! Be a horny little horn dog this Halloween! And as always, follow us on Twitter & insta @chapmankumquat
Xoxo,
Your silly lil editors
Hey bitch! What’s up! How have you been? Awesome, so excited for you! Anyways, we wanted to thank you for following the kumquat on insta and twitter (@chapmankumquat). We really appreciate it... receiving those follows is such a highlight for us...but as of recent the Kumquat has more followers than our personal social media accounts :/ Would you mind doing us just a little favor — figure out who we are and follow us. We can’t come right out and reveal ourselves because that’s just desperate and tacky, but like … please find out who we are. Everytime The Kumquat tweets an okay joke, it still gets 20 times as many likes our best tweets. For the sake of our egos, please discover us.
