It was midday on a boring Wednesday in April. I had just sat through a class discussion in Vilas Hall, and I was making plans to get lunch from my favorite State Street spot immediately after. The day was as mundane as it could be.

In case you couldn’t tell by the title, “Good Guy With A Gun” is a story about guns and whether people should use them. The story centers around Will (Beck Nolan), a teenager from Chicago whose unarmed father is fatally shot while trying to prevent a robbery. Will and his mother, Tessa (Tiffany Bedwell), soon take a trip to rural Illinois, where guns are just as abundant as beer — both of which the locals have no issue selling to teenagers.

Almost everyone in Wisconsin was aware of the election on April 4. As a Madison resident, I was bombarded with calls, texts, YouTube advertisements and flyers on my door. All election media sent my way was either about the Supreme Court, or Madison mayoral and City Council candidates. I had not seen one piece of accessible, educational text referencing the referendums on the ballot.

Hopefully you’re getting your degree in something like architecture, and not something useless like creative writing, because you’re going to need it. My answer is tunnels. Listen, you can argue with dear old ma and pa (or whichever other combination of parental figure titles) all you want, but it’s not going to happen. They are trying to assert their dominance over you like any good alpha would, so debate is not going to fix this problem. You have to take matters into your own hands. If they treat you like a rat, turn their home into a maze. Listen, plenty of kings had mistresses (and paramours) who needed to be snuck through the castle, and you know how they did it? With tunnels. You need to create a secret tunnel between you and your man’s room for your rendezvous. You get to be together with your lover and his parents don’t know. Everyone’s happy. Hope this helps!

Man, siblings don’t murder each other like they used to anymore. Fratricide and sororicide used to be so commonplace. You’re a younger brother but want the throne? You know what you have to do. Mehmed III of the Ottoman Empire killed his 19 brothers. NINETEEN, and you can’t get rid of one sister. Listen, I know things didn’t end up too well in Hamlet, but I doubt your sister has a whiny son who sees ghosts, so you’ll probably be fine. I also know parental affection isn’t the throne of Denmark, but some may argue it’s even more important. Eliminate the competition and your parents will have to make you the favorite. Lastly, if you get caught and try to blame me, remember I have an excellent lawyer and will never feel the cold air of a jail cell. Hope this helps!

Well, lucky for you, human emotion is like putty — easily shaped by the hands of life. And if you’re like me — someone majoring in psychology, so I can manipulate others easier — you know exactly how to do this. The most simple thing to do is “Pavlov’s Dog” him. Find something he really likes. Men are easy, and you’ve probably heard him talk about himself in great lengths multiple times before without asking you a single question, so you totally know what gets him going. Pick something small, cheap and available — candy, a toy or something like that, and when you see him, give it to him. Sooner or later, he’ll equate that feeling of happiness from getting the item to being happy seeing you. After a while, he’ll start to get excited anytime you see him, and everyone knows excitement is the first step to romantic attraction. He’ll learn to love you when you start dating, but getting your foot in the door with psychological manipulation is the important step. Hope this helps!

I watched plenty of Badger basketball this season. A turbulent year full of losing streaks, injuries and only occasional bounce-back wins saw Wisconsin finish at a mediocre 20-16 (9-11 in the Big Ten).
