(Dis)approval Matrix: 10.24.2013
The semester is halfway over and you’ve certainly given us a lot to talk about, kiddies. Let’s take a look back at this semester so far.
Open Letter: To Halloween Enthusiasts
Dear “People–Who–Get–Way–Into–Halloween,” I admire you. I truly do. With Halloween quickly approaching, I see you getting into your stride.
The Round Up: 10.24.2013
Ah yes, life at Penn goes on, ducklings. Mask and Wig had its show. Highbrow didn’t go. The Adderall popped as midterms loomed.
Overheard at Penn: 10.24.2013
Frat bro on Locust: See, if it didn’t have this logo, you might think I got it in Times Square.
Ask Miss Cassandra: Hopping Frats Boys and Clothing Your Boy's Toy
The guy I am hooking up with says that it’s hard for him to get it up when he’s wearing a condom?
Word on the Street: Taunted, Not Teased
At some point during my freshman year, I found myself alone with a guy I’d just met. He had dark hair and eyes, I think, and his name was a generic one I soon forgot.
Overheard at Penn: 10.17.2013
Girl in Starbucks: I just really want a Hermès Birkin bag. I like how they’re subtle.
The Round Up: 10.17.2013
Did you have, like, the best Fall Break, like, ever? You just went home? Yeah, I figured from all the snapchats of your dog.
My Penn Addiction: "Let's Do Lunch"
I really want you to like me, to think of me as a friend. Not like, a good friend, but at least an acquaintance.
Ask Miss Cassandra: Smells that Linger and Eastern Europeans that Don't
My boyfriend and I have been together for a year now and everything has always been great in bed.
Tweet of the Week: 10.15.2013
My tweets don't want no thought control.
Word On The Street: Sisters (Should Be) Doin’ It For Themselves
This was written as a response to a previous Word on the Street, which can be found here. Yes, America is changing its thoughts on marijuana.
Tweet of the Week: 10.7.2013
Right about now, the tweet soul brotha——
Tweets Illustrated: 10.3.2013
Do you tweet with abandon? Do you live your life in 140 characters or less? Keep doing what you’re doing, soul sister, ’cause Highbrow’s watching. You might just get your own tweet #illustrated.
Overheard at Penn: 10.3.2013
AXO girl: Can we try and be scene–y for five minutes? Ginger outside of Pod: Freshman year we had a contest to find our ugliest friend on Facebook.
The Roundup: 10.3.2013
Never fear, dear readers, the government may have shut down, but Highbrow is still here churning out gossip and making shit work.
Word on the Street: In Defense of Potheads
Admittedly, I started on this train of thought while I was high. The eating–Doritos–in–bed–alone, binge–watching–"Family Guy"–on–Netflix type of high [ed note: is there another kind?]. The fact that a lot of my peer group (basically my entire peer group) smokes weed is not news.
