"who work tirelessly to provide students with an informative, entertaining and edifying student newspaper, gratis" I'll be honest I don't even understand half of these words. Here's one for the Nouse dictionary: PRETENTIOUS “crusading student journalists on a valiant expository mission”

“something happens which gladdens the journalistic heart and reaffirms the belief that media freedom is alive and well in democratic Britain at large, for all it may be dampened by bureaucratic expectorations at this University”

“I’ll extract my tongue from its habitual residence in my cheek and say just one more thing.”

“who work tirelessly to provide students with an informative, entertaining and edifying student newspaper, gratis”

I’ll be honest I don’t even understand half of these words.

Here’s one for the Nouse dictionary:

PRETENTIOUS

It would be great to know what you're doing now, and to hear about what Nouse was like 5 years ago. Did you work with Toby Hall at all? The Nouse email account is socs12@york.ac.uk if you fancy filling us in. You should pop into the office some time if you're ever back in York!

I wanted to congratulate you on how far you have far to bring nouse. When I was editing the paper about about 5 years ago, we were 3000pounds in debt, horribly understaffed and very obviously overshadowed by the Other Paper. We had been talking about having an online version for months and years and I'm so glad to see how well you've done with this website. It's fantastic! Quite amusing to see that all those things about cold pizza, naughty Macs and petulant QuarkXPress still hold true though... but that's what makes the whole thing so special, no? Congrats! nouse looks fantastic and is everything I wanted it to be when I was editor! J xxx Hi Heidi (and the nouse team). I wanted to congratulate you on how far you have far to bring nouse.
