Professor: Come on, even the Pitt kids would get this one.

Years ago, back when the April Fool’s Natrat didn’t induce protests and catastrophic heart events, there was a fake advertisement:
Pitt: The next best thing to dropping out!
Whoah whoah whoah. What happened with the Natrat?
There have been a couple April Fool’s editions that have resulted in headlines, charges of insensitivity, bias, whatever, and editors dumped.
The usual.
The last straw was the cartoon that dropped the n-bomb, and the poem about a woman getting raped with an ice skate. Funny and satirical, no?
The last time I saw a Natrat, it was funny. That was a long time ago. Sigh.
There’s nothing funny or satirical about the things you quote, Kat.
Wait, let me try to make them funny!
Hmmm…
No. Nothing.
Combine them somehow?
Nope.
Oh well.
