DEAR PEAKIE: Talking washrooms, wash-outs, and narcissism

A SFU advice column by sad students, for sad students

Written by Zach Siddiqui, Humour Editor

Dear Peakie

Do I absorb Jeff Bezos’ worth if I eat him or does everything stay the same?

Dear Didn’t Get a Scholarship This Term,

I would advise against this. You can’t even stomach capitalism now. Swallow this man whole and you’ll turn out like that guy from my high school who went grad camping the year before I graduated: in the hospital, getting your stomach pumped because you partied harder than you could handle. And just like that guy, you will turn into what my classmates called “grad camping Jesus,” coming back from the hospital in three days ready to drink more capitalism. 

Love, Peakie

Dear Peakie,

Where at SFU can I take a dump in peace?

From, KO

Dear KO,

Nowhere. Even if you find a washroom that features neither a window in your stall nor incessant chatter from students who haven’t washed their hands since preschool, the shrieks of your lonely soul will echo loudly within the porcelain throne, disturbing you. No relief awaits you. Accept your fate and start going numbers one and two before you leave your home every morning. 

Love, Peakie

Love, Peakie

Love, Peakie

The Peak interviewed Scott Alleyn, chief staff officer of the Burnaby fire department, for more information.  Alleyn cited past wildfire activity along the Burnaby Mountain corridor as the reason to implement a modernized wildfire detection system. The existing wildfire management system is largely reliant on reports made by the public, which Alleyn said slows down emergency response times. This new technology is meant to expedite the detection of wildfires before they escalate by automatically detecting them. The program was initiated following the recommendations of Miles Ritchie, fire chief for...
