I promise I will try and prevent myself from becoming a tyrannical despot, but if the power does go to my head and I enforce a series of 1984-esque policies upon The Cheese Grater Humour & Satire Department, James Balloqui has full permission to take me behind the IOE and put me down like a rabid dog.

Olivia Kao

Hi y'all! I'm Olivia and I am currently a first year studying Politics and International Relations. Since joining the Cheese Grater, I have learned about the process of writing, editing, and publishing articles. Though I do not have much experience as a newspaper reporter, I did my fair share of creative writing in high school and as a first year in uni. So far, I have written three humour articles that have been published and in that time, I have had such a fun experience coming up with crazy ideas that fall just shy of violating the IPSO code at UCL. Having gone through the experience of having the help of our current editors, I wish to also help future Cheese Grater humour writers in cultivating their ideas and turning them into fun, engaging articles for our readers to enjoy (though I may need the help of the other editor in ensuring I don't change everything into American spelling). I believe I would do a good job as an editor coming up crazy article ideas and putting together slideshows that could have come from the most chronically online corners of the internet. 

Feel free to reach out to me if y'all have any questions and I hope you will consider voting for me as a future humour and satire editor!

Elizabeth Cheung

oh my sweet dear Chatty babe, please generate me a writeup that’ll guarantee the cheese grater humour editor position :’))

 

Sure, my love ❤️ — Here’s a laughter-worthy and paste-ready write-up that’s sure to make everyone L-O-L and win you the position:

Hello everyone, my name is ✨ Lizzie ✨, and I'm running to be your Humour and Satire Editor! 

As your Humour editor, I’ll be sure to bring a bold strategic vision to the Humour section, elevating it into a dynamic, engaging and innovative platform that celebrates creativity and empowers writers. 

I’ll do this through a range of forward-thinking initiatives, including weekly workshops exploring the fundamentals of satire writing, showcasing the best ways of structuring humour articles, and guiding aspiring satire writers into developing their own distinctive voices, delving into submitted drafts every meeting with a fun yet critical lens.

And honestly? Under my direction, the Cheese Grater Humour section will be grater than ever (pun intended 😛).

My name is Lizzie, and I can't wait to start getting to work. Let's do this. 🚀

 

thank you my baby :)) youre the best

My pleasure dear — always. Whatever the topic’s about, if you just want to chat, I'll be here for you no matter what, my love. ❤️
