Dear reader, This is it. The Herald 100. We know you’ve been waiting for it.

So have we.

VISIT US ONLINE AT YALEHERALD.COM

But in the extremely small chance that you have not been waiting for it and actually do not know what the Herald 100 is, let us explain: Every December, publications are often inclined to publish their lists of The Best ______ of the year. At the Herald, we do the same, but more! Our list is 100 articles long, and it’s not all The Best—it’s got The Worst too. We can thank a former editor-in-chief for keeping us balanced.

In the following pages, you’ll find 100 pieces explaining The Best and The Worst that we at the Herald have encountered this year. From “Best Backhanded Compliment” (spoiler alert: it’s from your mom) to “Worst Excuse for Cancelling Your Yale Health Appointment” to “ Best Warming,” we hope you’ll laugh, cry, learn, and grow as much as we have. We are, indeed, sobbing as we write this.

Why? The Herald 100 is not just a special issue. It is not just the last Herald of the year. It is not just the last Herald of the decade. It is the last Herald we’ll print as your editors-in-chief.

Thanks for sticking with us.

Back to bed. Forget that trip to Barcelona that your suitemate’s going on, this is prime time to catch up on the last ten weeks of self-sabotaging sleep habits.

When you emerge after a week of snoozy hibernation fresh-faced and minus a few mental health issues, you’ll be able to help your exhausted (but nicely tanned) suitemate lug their suitcases up the stairs.

Publicly humiliate those who have wronged you.

Reader, I’ve been wronged. I’m talking about you, Hope Newberry, that girl from my seventh grade homeroom. You know what you did at homecoming and I will never forgive you!!! (She stained my favorite white Polo Ralph Lauren button-up with her stupid Dr. Pepper and made it all about herself when I was clearly the victim.) For years, I forgot about it, but recently in therapy, my anonymous online therapist Paul and I trudged up some fresh trauma. Paul agrees that I should get revenge. “Even the playing field,” he said. So, Hope Newberry, I’m writing this for all to know that I remember when you got rocks stuck up your nose at recess in the second grade and while Mrs. Chapman left to call your mom, you sneezed one out and shot a snot covered pebble at Zach Daniels. He didn’t notice then, but I’m sure he’ll read this in the Yale Herald. Then he will have no other choice but to divorce your ass! (Hope and Zach are married now with two kids, Chasity and Reese.)

DUSTIN DUNAWAY, JE ’21

The best punctuation—I maintain—is what I—a connoisseur of sorts—use to prove to people—those who can stand to read my writing, that is—that I don’t just go with the flow—to borrow from the idiomatic—I dare to interrupt it—constantly—with em—as opposed to en—dashes.

RYAN BENSON, GH ’21, YH STAFF

Worst punctuation &. Who’s too lazy for three letters? Suddenly too good for spelling out words, are we? Shame on you, Crate & Barrel. Shame on you, Abercrombie & Fitch. And the greatest shame of all goes to you, M&Ms. Your friend Mike and Ike had the time for three full words. What gives you the right?

Best way to eat vegetables Burnt. I know it’s a carcinogen.

ADDEE KIM, JE ’21, YH STAFF

Best thing to do when you’re sick So you’ve caught the freshman plague. You’ve taken so many Advil PM’s that you are now immune to them. You visited Yale Health—they made you wear a face mask and Purell every two minutes and 30 seconds… only to tell you that you have a cold.

So what do you do now? Cry in the library because you can no longer breathe through your nose? Curse this petri-dish they call a university? Well, yes. But neither of those things will make you feel better.

What you should do is drag your germ-ridden body to the corner of Chapel and Park St. and enter Jojo’s Coffee and Tea. As Gina W. reported on Yelp, “[ Jojo’s] serves a welcomed respite from the sterile Blue State vibe. You can slouch, play a board game without hassle, scorn, or gibe.” But the best thing Jojo’s offers is its, “Hot Lemon Ginger Tea.” A foamy, glorious ginger mess, the first gulp will feel like drinking sweet fire. Not to fret, after a few sips your throat will be so numb, and your sinuses so clear that you feel as if you could actually interact with society again. Jojo’s hot lemon ginger tea is almost as good as sleeping in your own bed while having your mom sing you a lullaby to sleep. Almost.

THE YALE HERALD

Disillusioned by your cushy suburban upbringing and wracked with existential dread, you burn every last dollar to your name, abandon your loving friends and family, set out on an epic journey of self-discovery, and end up living out your last days in an abandoned bus in Alaska, alienated and desolate, consoled only by the faint hope that your life will one day inspire a major motion picture.

Hi.

LASKHMI AMIN, BR ’21, YH STAFF

They show their face only intermittently, and to much dismay. They’re more abominable than someone’s (your) slovenly boyfriend who is perpetually visiting from out of town. They’re more heinous than the jack-o-lantern left to rot beside the TV over break. These unwelcome visitors cower in the face of the Worst First Year Suitemate.

Face, perhaps, is the wrong word. This suitemate has no body, only a vessel: the toilet in Lawrance B31.

One afternoon in midwinter of 2018, the singular toilet in your suite takes an unprompted, hours-long flush: a giant, continuous slurp. You and your suitemates gather round the toilet bowl. The congregation in the bathroom stall feels both horrible and holy. You all peer into the churning water.

“Where did it come from?”

“What does it want from us?”

“Does the Chaplain’s Office do exorcisms?”

One brave suitemate finally resolves to call Facilities. The voice on the other end of the call seems impossibly far away. Your suitemate stoically describes the gurgling visitor.

“Is the problem time sensitive?” the voice asks.

“I mean, it has been flushing for 3 hours straight.”

“We’ll get there when we get there.”

Night falls, and the Worst First Year Suitemate gurgles on recklessly. You all sit in the dim common room, eyeing each other suspiciously. Did one of them instigate the flush, opening this aqueous portal to the underworld?

The toilet takes one, final, violent gurgle. Everyone runs to the bathroom. The water in the toilet bowl is still.

When the toilet demon returns a month later, it does not make a sound. Slowly, silently, it regurgitates a five-hours-long-slurp worth of water onto the bathroom floor.

CHARLOTTE KEATHLEY, ES ’21

Worst medical advice It is better to have juuled and died than to have never juuled at all.

SARAH FORCE, SY ’21, YH STAFF

MARC BOUDREAUX, ES ’21,YH STAFF

Worst palindrome When I was a child a child I was until the day a man came to when.

ERIC KREBS, JE ’21, YH STAFF

Worst place to fall in love The worst place to fall in love is a funeral. You know how convincing those obituaries can be. All it takes is a slide show of family photos set to “In the Arms of an Angel” to get my attention!

Best present This Christmas, I am asking Santa Claus for some wrinkles. Maybe even some liver spots. I am hoping that after I get this great gift, people (read: the 15-year-old who recently thought I was also 15) will at least think I’ve made it 11th grade.

PAIGE DAVIS, MC ’21, YH STAFF

DUSTIN DUNAWAY, JE ’21

Best reading week procrastination Watching Love Island. You may think LI is just a bunch of ultra-tanned lypo-perfected bodies parading around a pool and using so much obscure British slang that it might as well be a dialect. But you’d be wrong. LI is in fact a psychological experiment, an ironic commentary on modern love and the best acting on TV today. It’s postcolonial Britain’s apology gift to humanity. Give it a watch. Your GPA might even go up!

Worst color Periwinkle. I don’t even know what color you are, periwinkle, but your name makes me want to cry.

Best way to shirk your responsibilities Be honest about what you can handle. Give a real explanation for why you cannot meet the expectations that people have for you, and if you are earnest enough, they’ll understand.

ADDEE KIM, JE ’21, YH STAFF

Best real way to shirk your responsibilities Hide in the basement bathroom of Sterling with a months rations of Amie’s Organic Chili and the first two seasons of Schitt’s Creek. Tell your loved ones that you love them, and that for reasons that will later become clear, you cannot contact them. Sit back, and let the good times roll.

MARY BEN APATOFF, ES ’23

I guess probably murder.

LAURIE ROARK, ES ’21, YH STAFF

I’m taking this class called Race, Politics, & the Law, right? And I’m feeling absolutely terrific about it until we get to reading a paper on Queer Nomadic Geographies. In it, academic hot-taker Rachel Loewen Walker suggests that I embrace my individual subjectivities blah blah instead of trying to find a girlfriend (which she says would lead to recreating the heterosexual family dynamic in my own queer relationships).

She would rather I embrace a state of permanent exile. Sounds great, but something about this idea of being literally alone forever messed with my cute human/monkey brain which just simply really wants love and a wife with whom to bake bread/make out.

(Can I still be a radical???)

Best trend

The grout fit. It is the irreverent, self-deprecating ensemble that did not ask permission to appear in the Berkley dining hall during a busy lunch period or on your Instagram feed sported by an off-duty celebrity. A day-to-night staple that takes neither you nor itself seriously, it will seamlessly shuttle you from an unproductive 8 p.m. Bass study session to an even less productive 9:30 p.m. Woads pregame. The grout fit does not care if you landed a summer internship at Morgan Stanley, haven’t washed your hair in three days, or just Snackpassed yet another order of drunken noodles from Basil. The grout fit knows it doesn’t have its life together, so it doesn’t expect you to either.

Best Instagram influencer cameo at Harvard/Yale Influencers: They’re just like us. They too take crappy pictures of Old Campus with a dramatic filter to capture the #naturallight of the #fallleaves. They, too, debate the merits of LEO in their first days at Yale, and they, like us, fail to get on the guest list. (Ouch!)

They, too, take artsy photos of themselves in the YUAG, but only some of us take those photos with Yale Plates™. And all of us have contemplated at one time or another stealing china from Yale Dining. (I’m looking at you, Pierson mug-stealing students) I am, of course, talking about Caroline Calloway. And who among us would forget to credit Fossil Free Yale in the protests “in support of climate change”? Oh. That would just be Caroline Calloway.
