Hello! Readers of the Saber Slate, I am proud to introduce the Saber Slate advice column! It works just like Dear Abby. You send in a problem, give us an alias, and we will answer with a solution in an article. They can be as crazy, trivial, or as serious as you want them to be. However, they have to be school appropriate, or we’re not allowed to answer it. You can submit problems through the submit button on the right side of the website or at www.tinyurl.com/fhsadvice.
Here is an example of what the typical advice article would look like:
First I would show the written problem.
“Dear Omar,
I have a problem that I’m sure you can relate to. As I attend class, eat lunch, and walk through the halls, something bothered me. I realized what it was. I was just too perfect. I am just amazing in every way and nobody else comes close to my level of excellence. What do I do?
Sincerely,
Perfectly Perfect”
Then I would answer it.
Perfect, I understand your problem completely, as I struggle with the same thing. My only advice to give you is to find people that at least come close to your perfection, and maybe then you can cope with your amazing skills and talent.
-Omar
A little short for an answer, but you get the point. Now that you have an idea of the ideal submission, get cracking! Submit problems, and we’ll write answers.
