Chinese students “love” Suburban Express; better than Amtrak’s scheduled delays

With all the recent controversy surrounding Suburban Express, international students have chosen to speak out in support of the transportation company.

Many students have commented on the “wonderful work ethic” that Suburban Express adheres to. In fact, Chinese students said it reminds them of home (Communist China).

“They may be racist, but at least they’re always on time, and I can appreciate that. We all have busy schedules, so it’s great that they are so reliable,” said Hai Shang, international student from Shanghai, China and junior in Political Science.

Shang said that out of all the transportation companies he’s ridden with, Amtrak has by far “been the worst.”

“Say what you will about the conservative gentlemen managing Suburban Express, but I have never had to wait an hour for the bus to get here, unlike Amtrak and their horrible work ethic.”

Shang even went on to say that he did not find the ad offensive because he doesn’t like Chinese people either.

“I know that as a social justice warrior, I should be deeply offended, but as a PETA supporter, I don’t want to be anywhere around those cat eaters,” Shang said.

The film begins with the protagonist, Clarice Starling, hurtling through an obstacle course alone, climbing over nets, and jumping over logs. Before she is able to complete the course, Special Agent-in-Charge, Jack Crawford, summons her to his office, and she runs back, bolting passed a tree with the motto, “Hurt, Agony, Pain―Love it.…or die” nailed into the bark. These words foreshadow the final scenes of the film, where Starling comes close to death in her encounter with the sinister Buffalo Bill. As she runs, the camera pans over the rest of her class training together. Already, the dichotomy between Clari...

Sessions: getting rid of criminals one gram at a time

Photo courtesy of Google Images In light of recent turmoil involving the legalization of recreational marijuana use, Jeff Sessions, United States Attorney General, has found the solution: rescinding Obama administration laws that allow recreational marijuana use and sale in certain states. This auspicious resolution comes four days after California declared the devil’s plant legal, and it couldn’t have been more perfect timing. “Marijuana is a schedule 1 drug for a reason,” said Mary-Jane Leafly, anti-marijuana advocate. “Schedule 1’s have high abuse potential, no medical use, and severe safety concerns. I’m relieved that our government is finally taking this issue seriously.” Sessions has a long history with the disapproval of marijuana and the people who smoke it. “This drug is dangerous, you cannot play with it, it is not funny; it’s not something to laugh about. . . good people don’t smoke marijuana,” Sessions said at a drug hearing in April 2016.* S...
