- Golden_Words abstract "Golden Words is a weekly humour publication produced by students at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario. Currently, it is self-styled as the only humour weekly in Canada.The paper was originally founded by the Engineering Society in 1967 to give the Engineering Society a voice on campus. Its very first cartoon contained an Engineer reading a copy of the Queen's Journal, thinking to himself \"Oh, what crap is this?\". It has been published more or less continuously since inception, appearing every Wednesday for most of the Fall and Winter terms, unless the editors have successfully gulled the readers into believing it had been shut down (as was the case in November 1985). Recent volumes have run 25 issues.Along with the Queen's Journal, it is one of the two main student-run publications on campus, and boasts a circulation of over 9,000.The paper's humour style reflects its official motto: \"Sola Veritas Est Qui Facit Ut Me in Merda\", which translates to \"Only The Truth Gets Me In Shit\". Its printed humour is diverse, running the gamut from absurdist sketches and short stories to political satire and commentary on current events. Practical jokes have also figured prominently in its history, and are typically revealed in subsequent issues. Published parodies have included Queen's Journal (often appearing more than 24 hours early to coincide with the Journal's publication day), the Queen's Gazette (for faculty and staff), the Kingston Whig-Standard, and Canada's (official) National Newspaper, The Globe and Mail. (When parodied in the 1980s, The Globe and Mail itself reported that the Engineers had actually inserted the ersatz versions into the coin boxes in the Globe's own lobby.) In September 1989, the masthead staff successfully stole the Greasepole (an engineering icon) from the first year students charged with protecting it - and ransomed it back to them for 100 cases of beer. The paper maintains a friendly rivalry with the \"Journal\": for example, in September 2014, the staff challenged the Journal's staff to a Keg race, to which they never respondedAlthough Golden Words is owned by the Engineering Society, the paper attracts contributors (writers, artists, and editorial staff) from across the undergraduate population. Notable Golden Words alumni include humourist Jay Pinkerton, game designer Erin Robinson, screenwriter Elan Mastai, and 1000 Awesome Things author Neil Pasricha. Robertson Davies serially published the first few chapters of his work The Manticore in the Golden Words, with the mythical title character originally a Mexican hairless cat who could read German.From 1988 to 1992, the Distribution Managers were Robert Brunner and Kevin Fox. At the time, distribution management involved distributing copies of the papers to all buildings on the Queen's University campus as well as seemingly random places around Kingston and environs (including St. Lawrence College and RMC). Some weeks, bundles of Golden Words were delivered as far as Ottawa or Toronto. It was all done with a great big golden Suburban.The paper's current editors for the 49th Volume are Joe Craib and Hattie Xu.".
