How to Avoid a Hangover Without Really Trying

By Zoe Williams | November 11, 2010

I dedicate this article to my two roommates of years past, who have bought me Powerade and oyster crackers in times of dire need and have generally tolerated me during days when I have kept our one-room doubles completely dark until 6 p.m. I've had a lot of hangovers in my time. In high school, I was a cocky little shit who thought I was constitutionally immune from the alleged feeling of illness that follows a night of drinking.

By Marguerite Imbert | November 11, 2010

Hot to Make it to Your 9L

By Esther Ha | November 11, 2010

Dartmouth's My Favorite

By Emily Hirshey | November 11, 2010

Last week, someone asked me why my column was so consistently ignorant of The Mirror's weekly theme. "Don't you think it's a little self-involved that you just write whatever you feel like?" Nancy Negativity asked. While I appreciated her honesty and felt she had a valid point, I couldn't help thinking, "Well, guess who sucks?" (Hey Nancy, it's you.) Luckily for me, my vengeance was clear and simple, thanks to the "How-To" theme of this week's issue; I could both show Nancy that I am capable of staying on topic and figuratively slap her soul in the face.

How to Talk to a Blacked-Out Person

By Kathleen Mayer | November 11, 2010

1) Make no sudden movements. 2) Say things that make no sense. Claim it was a pun. Laugh loudly for 30 seconds. 3) Every few minutes, ask, "Remember when Michael Jackson died?" 4) If they start to cry, RUN.
