Volume 0, Issue 1 - Winter 2021

Acorn Satire Service is an ill-advised scheme to make PWR 211 - Publishing and Editing I sexy.

​

The views and opinions expressed here are those of the authors and do not reflect the official positions of Elon University or Dr. Travis Maynard in any capacity. Dr. Maynard raised numerous objections to the contents of this issue, particularly with those stories critical of our university and its benevolent leadership; however, any attempts to curtail the issue were met with not-so-thinly-veiled threats to review-bomb Dr. Maynard's SPoT forms and Rate My Professor profile.

Many thanks to The Onion and The Eggplant for their disclaimers, from which we have shamelessly stolen:

​

The First Amendment protects satire as a form of free speech and expression. All stories, names, characters, events and incidents used in articles are fictitious unless noted otherwise. Acorn Satire Service uses invented names in all of its stories, except in cases where public figures are being satirized. Any other use of real names is accidental and coincidental. No identification with actual persons (living or deceased), places, buildings, and products is intended or should be inferred.

​

Acorn Satire Service does not condone racism, sexism, transphobia, homophobia, ableism or any other form of discriminatory “humor."

 

Finally, we would like to thank our predecessor in satire, Bubble Bitching, for setting the standard by which we will be measured.
