This tall, Jewish, singing basketball star is a host of contradictions. He can ball out on the court or court you with his balls. And even Obama thinks he can score.
Texts from Last Night: Spring Break Edition
(408): I just watched a video of a man sexually arouse a pig. (585): Side note: when you go to the doctor's and they ask you how many alcoholic beverages you've had in the last week, "I don't remember" is not an acceptable response apparently.

Surviving the iPocalypse
Here at Penn, most of us seem to be attached at the hip to our phones, laptops, and other tech products. Our classrooms, homes and worlds seem to be constantly flooded with screens.

EOTW: Caroline Kee
Even if you haven’t seen this lady longlegs around campus, she’s probably seen you in her crystal ball. Whether she’s hanging with healers in the Himalayas or curing STIs, this St. Elmo witch has the dildo wand that will (pene)treat you.

Synon-Names: Moniker Mix-Ups
Ego brought you Doppelgängers and now we present Synon-names: people with the same identities on Penn Directory, but are totally different in person. Beware next time you email Rebecca Stein begging for an "A."
EOTW: Denzel Cummings
Denzel, aka "Coco Diesel," may be too scared to walk into his basement, but he's definitely not too scared to tackle society's biggest issues.
