...College Toilet Paper Commission, which made the change from one-ply to two-ply after months of deliberation. Today, we ask Dean of the College Benedict H. Gross ’71 if he would want to go home and have his bathroom epiphanies interrupted by the scratchy TP villain that is Scott Surpass. We are pretty sure that the answer would...
Manhunt is an exceptionally violent game--garrote a villain with a sharp wire, and a finely rendered mist of blood sprays from his severed carotid. Interestingly, the game's premise feels like an attempt to help you sidestep any twinges of conscience you may feel at your own sadism--hey, it's that sick director guy who's making you do this!

There’s a difference, though. Country club members have earned their privileges, and they pay annual dues. Adams House residents got lucky in a housing lottery, and they pay the same tuition as everyone else. This tuition then subsidizes their luxurious dining hall. Indeed, Dartboard struggles in vain to think of one way that the racket at Adams, in principle, is less nefarious than the capitalist patriarchies...
