I really don't mean to be mean, but from the second I opened the 2006 RollaMO yearbook, I knew it would be abysmal.

First of all, nearly every time a word was made plural, it was given an apostrophe. For example, this is what one sees when the book is first opened:

Quote:
100 Year's of Editing
RollaMO's Editor's In Chief


Like I said, this occurs with nearly every plural word in the entire yearbook. If that's not enough, the following headlines are misspelled:

Quote:
Organizatons
RCA - Residential Collage Association
St. Pat's Cornation
Sigma Epslion


I came up with those by glancing at each page for about half a second.

Perhaps I'll volunteer a little bit of my time to help RollaMO in years to come.

I noticed 2 things about this post.

1. We have a yearbook that sucks. I kinda figured this, just good to clarify

2. Somebody on seek was going to DO something to improve an organization on campus. That is just crazy talk.

Sorry about that.

I kinda figured since that, I'm like one of maybe 10 Jews in Rolla, the chances of me actually offending anyone with that were pretty damn slim. Sorry for offending you.

Yeah, he fell off a guard tower... it was tragic.

Thanks for supplying the second line of the joke so willingly though.

Pre-edit
Excuse me, do I know you? I didn't think so. This means that: A) You don't know me; or B) You're a flaming stalker.

So, which is it?

Post-edit
Please review my personal work and feel free to criticize any of it. However, criticizing me for the things I'm associated with is as shallow as assuming that all black people like chicken. Grow up.

Easy there killer. I know you work for the Miner based on the fact you posted in the The Miner sucks thread. Other than that, I have no idea who you are. Perhaps you shouldn't reveal intimate details of yourself over the internet then question when people actually call you out on them.

Intimate? I don't consider that an intimate detail. I don't care if people know where I work. I do care, however, when people judge me based on anything other than my own personal merits.

Edit to prevent looking stupid FTW. Too bad the Miner doesn't allow edits post-publication. Be a much better paper that way.
