Toike Oike (Newspaper): Difference between revisions

In recent years, the tradition of "Toiking" has become a popular use of the Toike Oike. It is a form of involuntary make-up application, where the back page of an issue of the Toike is rubbed vigorously against the face of a person. The back page always contains content printed with a lot of black ink so that upon completing the action described, the person being Toiked is left with black ink all over their face. However, this look is not a source of shame, and many students who have been Toiked choose to proudly wear this new look for at least some time before heading to a bathroom to scrub the ink off.  

The Toike Oike does not have as large a hierarchy as most professional newspapers, but there are still defined positions within the paper:

The Toike has usually operated with only one Editor (as opposed to certain newspapers which choose to have more). The Editor is responsible for all administrative tasks from organizing meetings, collecting content, and managing the budget.

The Head Writer is a large mountain of comedic material and potential. They typically provide a large volume of the written content in the Toike and are charged with making up new content on the fly as the Editor requires.

The Head Graphics editor is an encyclopedia of Photoshop effects and hot keys. They typically provide a large volume of the graphic content  in the Toike and are charged with making up new content on the fly as the Editor requires.

The layout editor takes the content and arranges it into beautifully-set pages ready for printing. Their weapon of choice is Adobe InDesign.

The copy editor checks all spelling and grammar in the paper, ensuring that the Toike is both hilarious AND could be used as a sample to preserve the rules and etiquette of the English language.
