Sudsy Wants You to Join the Oregon Commentator
 

Staff Meeting

There will be a meeting this Wednesday at 1pm at our office at EMU 319. All staffers are asked to attend, as are all those interested in contributing to our summer issue, or becoming contributers/staffers in the fall. We are looking for columnists, reporters, staff writers, editors, artists, technical advisors, webmasters etc to help keep the Commentator on top of its game. If you like what we do and want to join in on the fun, show up.

  1. Tyler says:

    Yeah, that 1:00 pm shit fucked my shit up.

    (That was the most articulate sentence I’ve written in years)

    Andy: Once you start your sweet internship in Springfield, you should try to stop by the ol’ Springfield Utilities Board.

  2. Michael G. says:

    Did I ever mention that 1:00 PM is a bad time for me to attend meetings?

    I guess I did now.

  3. Andy says:

    You fuck tyler! LoL. I’ll be back in the euge like the 5th – we’ll do lunch. Right now I’m in VA having a fucking blast.

  4. Matt P. says:

    Wait: are TYLER and Tyler different people?

  5. TYLER (IN CAPS) says:

    *snap*

  6. Ian says:

    Have you heard of a man named Hobbes?

    Sure, but why bring stuffed animals into the conversation?

  7. Timothy says:

    it could be an interesting (even if morally questionable) reasoning exercise to try and justify totalitarianism through some sort of intellectual argument.

    Have you heard of a man named Hobbes?

  8. Matt P. says:

    Matt P: Our mission statement is as close as we come to any codified principles. Some of us more emphatically oppose totalitarianism than others, but most agree that as a principle, totalitarianism is less than desireable. If you want to advance the debate on that point, please, send a piece in.

    Actually, I was joking, but now that you mention it, it could be an interesting (even if morally questionable) reasoning exercise to try and justify totalitarianism through some sort of intellectual argument. It would at least be a decent satire if nothing more.

    Kudos to the open-mindedness though, it’s rare these days.

  9. Niedermeyer says:

    deborah: there are several women who are interested in contributing in a number of departments, from layout to reporting to commentary. If they all stick with it, next year could see the most contributions from women to our little rag than ever… I’m excited.

  10. de lancie says:

    i am a girl…..and i am very excited for the meeting…..

    “i hope they like me, that they really, really like me!!”

  11. Anthony says:

    Hahaha aw the hate continues from people I have never met, glad to know I still remain in the hearts and minds of a few of you.

  12. Miles Rost says:

    NO COLUMN FOR YOU!

  13. Matt P. says:

    We emphatically oppose totalitarianism and its apologists.

    That one just doesn’t sit well with me.

  14. Tyler says:

    That was mean; I apologize. Please don’t shoot me, Andy.

  15. Tyler says:

    Um, we have Andy.

    *snap*

  16. Deborah says:

    Ted,
    Got your message but I won’t be there tomorrow as I’m probably not here next year (Evan should be there though). Also, even though Anthony Warren emits more estrogen than any girl I’ve ever met, you guys should still look in to recruiting some actual females.

  17. Niedermeyer says:

    Serious disagreement with our mission statement.

    These things are best handled individually. If you are interested in contributing, but have concerns or would rather discuss your contributions privately, feel free to contact us by email… [email protected]

  18. person says:

    What does the OC consider to be a conflict of interest?

  19. Miles Rost says:

    So, that means you’re gonna be eating Filet of Ian…

    This could be hilarious.

  20. Niedermeyer says:

    person:
    Actually, with our Hate issue gone to press now, Ian is taking a well deserved break from dealing with all the fools with no life who want to write for us. In fact, our awards banquet (to be held at the summer solstice) will be the scene of the official transition of editorial powers, in which the successor must ritually slaughter and devour the current editor. Since this will be the culmination of a secretive 24 hour ceremony/orgy, probably the best place to discuss your writing ideas would be the meeting.

  21. Tyler says:

    And I’ll be there, too! It will be one of my last appearances before I go on tour, so you don’t want to miss it!!! What kind of zany antics will Tyler be up to? Who knows. You’ll just have to find out.

    Tickets go on sale today at Ticketmaster and the dumpster next to the 7-11.

  22. Miles Rost says:

    None of us have lives, really. We only think we do.

    So yes, you qualify.

    And no, I’m not Ian…

  23. person says:

    Ian,
    I have no life. Does this make me eligible to write for the OC?
