BOOK: “The Man Who Wrote The Book” by Erik Tarloff Ezra Gordon, a professor in middle-of-nowhere California stuck in a lackluster relationship and a failing career, makes a fast-cash deal with a successful porn publisher to write a dirty book under the pseudonym E.A.

But in the end, they didn’t get the code. Of course the two girls prevailed against the twenty-plus boys!” — ‘09 KDE More »

Over the next four years, you might experiment a bit, perhaps try “raging” all night, or becoming friends with the guy down the hall whose diet is composed entirely of marijuana and Hot Pockets. Some of you might experiment a lot, and wake up one day to find that you are the guy down the hall whose diet is composed entirely of marijuana and Hot Pockets. More »

Ah, fall. Hoards of Dartmouth apparel-clad freshmen everywhere. Thousands of overheard conversation snippets in which the words “major” and “D-plan” are spoken too often and too eagerly. Lots of smirking upperclassmen, who were never, ever this lame. It’s everyone’s favorite term! More »
