GRAD SCANDALS!<br />

Banned!<br />

by Mary Bunka<br />

Well, it was fun, but it seems to be the end of<br />

an era. Say goodbye to your skinny jeans, everyone.<br />

They’ve been outlawed from the halls<br />

of KSS. During a meeting over the break,<br />

KSS Admin decided that skinny jeans will<br />

be banned starting February 1. The ban will<br />

also include “jeggings” and “pajama jeans.”<br />

“Skinny jeans and jeggings may cover all of<br />

the leg, but they are so tight that students may<br />

as well be wearing no pants at all. It’s a gross<br />

violation of our dress code here at KSS. Students<br />

are paying more attention to each other’s<br />

legs and bums than to their lessons. This<br />

must be remedied,” stated Mrs. Kintzinger.<br />

When questioned about pajama jeans, which<br />

are not as provocative as skinny jeans and jeggings,<br />

Kintzinger stated that “pajama jeans are<br />

simply too ugly and unfashionable to be worn<br />

at school. We have standards here, you know.”<br />

A grade 12 student who would prefer to remain<br />

anonymous was, like many students, outraged.<br />

“This is so unfair! What are they going to do next,<br />

demand we wear shirts with straps? We should<br />

totally stage a protest or something.” In fact, this<br />

student would like to take the opportunity to call<br />

out to KSS. “If you feel this ban is unfair, please<br />

help me in fighting it. Wear red skinny jeans and a<br />

black shirt on the first day of the ban to fight back.”<br />

Beginning on February 1, any student, male or<br />

female, that is caught wearing the banned attire<br />

will be given a “more modest” clothing substitute<br />

to wear for the remainder of the day. SD23 has<br />

provided KSS with $2,500 to purchase parachute<br />

pants for those that cannot comply with the ban.<br />

Parachute pants were tested in ten Vancouver<br />

high schools and were found to reduce sexual<br />

tension by 56% and improve students’ concentration<br />

on their studies by a massive 73%.<br />

“You can’t argue with the numbers,” said Dr.<br />

Mod Esty, chief of parachute-pant implementation<br />

in BC. “Moving away from skinny jeans is<br />

the best thing that this school district has done<br />

since switching KSS to the semester system.”<br />

What KSS Hoped You’d Never Find Out!<br />

by Esme Jackson<br />

He’s big, he’s hairy, and we have an explanation for you! Liam Bergin is inevitably <strong>Kelowna</strong>’s<br />

very own half-breed Sasquatch, or as it’s better known: ‘Bigfoot.’ Casually seen walking through<br />

woodland areas and leaving behind footprints too large for any human, Bergin is determined to be the<br />

mysterious large figure that has been photographed running through our mountain habitats.<br />

The world famous sasquatch species is said to be living in the northwest pacific, an area ranging<br />

from southern BC to upper Oregon. It is believed that multiple Bigfoot type figures live in the area,<br />

finding shelter on the mountain ranges, and eating the natural resources available. Several sightings<br />

have been issued in <strong>Kelowna</strong>, with time periods ranging in the last three years. The idea is plausible.<br />

Half-sasquatch, half-human, Liam Bergin may be the first sasquatch hybrid that Canada has seen. So<br />

what’s your verdict, KSS? Liam Bergin, a modern day monkey?<br />

Blago Hristovski knows it all; he plays the saxophone, he scuba dives, and yet he still manages to<br />

get the grades. So you have to wonder, when did he learn it all? Who has the time to excel in so many<br />

different things? Well, you wouldn’t have trouble with time if you had an eternity to live. And so, it<br />

all makes sense… Blago Hristovski is an immortal. If you’d like to get technical, you may say he has<br />

a strange case of enhanced regeneration. This is the ability to heal from any ailments, which basically<br />

grants immortality. Though, we aren’t able to explain his youth. I’m afraid that for now, that will<br />

remain a mystery, KSS.<br />
