The following content is purely satirical and entirely fictional.

Over winter break, you may have made the mistake of remaining blissfully unaware of the “buzz” from campus and around the world. As such, we at The Daily PrintsAnything have decided to do the honorable work of summarizing last month’s biggest headlines and breaking news stories, you lazy chuds.

Princeton men’s hockey game attendance booms

After averaging less than 50 spectators per game, 780 spectators turned out to Sunday’s nail biter against Bentley. Richard ‘Dick’ Muncher, #26, was happy but confused about his sudden fandom: “They kept chanting my name, and it only seemed to excite them more when I said I was a bench rider. And what does ‘do the Heated Rivalry thing’ mean?”

Trump family announces mobile game

In the game, which critics have denounced as a “total Pokemon GO spoof,” players will take the form of a heroic ICE agent who throws cages to catch immigrant children. Pesky parents can be chased off with pepper spray or pre-caught at church services. Analysts have concerns over the game’s profitability, which will be exclusive to the PrintsAnything app on Trump Mobile. Saudi Arabia invested $8 billion in the project after the addition of a ‘kill a protester’ function.

Analysis shows entire Class of ’26 AI-generated

With accusations of dishonesty sweeping across Fizz, the crack investigative journalists on the PrintsAnything multimedia team revealed that the entirety of the Great Class of 2026 was AI-generated. Every member of the class will have to present themselves before the Committee on Discipline for a marathon hearing scheduled for later in February. If the seniors sink when their bodies are tied up in Lake Carnegie or burn at the stake in the Chapel, they will be deemed innocent and zero percent AI.

University totally never implicated in the Epstein Files

With the Department of Justice hard at work to release the much anticipated Epstein Files (rated higher on Rotten Tomatoes than Stranger Things Season 5), there has been no mention, whatsoever, of any Princeton faculty members, alumni, staff, students, parents of students, or any campus acquaintances in the first five pages of the files. In stark contrast, Harvard offered the New York financier-turned-Floridaman an endowed, tenure track position as a professor of developmental psychology.

Students find it more difficult to return to University because of snow than ICE

The alleged “storm to end all storms” has sent the globe into a frenzy with many sources reporting record-low temperatures, record-high snowfalls, and a cacophony of exploding trees. Students traveling from outside of the United States acutely feel the impacts of the snowmageddon, as Newark Airport is completely submerged in snow and will have to be recovered via excavation. Due to the extreme weather, students have not yet had to venture through customs, which causes anxiety for many of the University’s international students. However, Newark’s ICE employees are the only airport staff trapped under the snow and will likely not melt for at least a couple months.
