Goddamn adminsitration and "job growth" in low paying positions.

Sure you don't get paid... but you don't have to fetch him frappuccino's either. I heartily recommend it.

My dream would be more features about being Jewish in Seattle, where the hip Jews go to Temple, and how we can all become more deeply observant of Jewish law and culture. The Stranger does a fine job at bashing Christianity, but that's not enough, we all need to become better Jews too, keep kosher, and love Torah.

chant together - minimum wage law, change it to make it universal, enforce it

if McDonalds tried this shit you'd be all over them

Kind of like how the Olympics excluded professionals to keep the lower classes out, internships give those rich enough to work for free a head start in their careers.

But if The Stranger is going to give some trust fund baby a leg up, why not see if somebody in the math department is looking to be an intern? Or a J major with a minor in math? Somebody with knowledge of like, statistics and sampling methods and so on? I'm just saying.

Who the hell are you talking about? I don't know an intern or writer at the Stranger that is not comically cheap and shabby by nature (not by design of some poor sense in fashion, which is also prevalent). Some of us resemble talking/typing garbage cans, with only the barest vestige of humanity visible in our deadened, dilated eyes.

If you think Chris Crocker is bad, he cannot even hold a flame to Ian.

And you don't have to take tests.
