SBA shocked to discover its own ineffectuality

LaDarrel Thirgidsdottir, The Stool

After years of attempted decision making with lackluster results, the SBA finally admitted that the association’s belief in its own supreme powers was unfounded.

“Perhaps we really aren’t as powerful as we think we are,” said spokeswoman Marissa C. Towne in a press conference Monday afternoon. “After taking a look at what we’ve accomplished over the years, it became apparent that we haven’t really managed to do much of anything.”

When asked what the SBA planned to do to change their apparent lack of influence, Towne replied, “Well, we’ve just got to reassert our dominion over the student body. We’ve already started to restructure ourselves. Just last week we gave ourselves new titles. I’m now ‘Lord Captain Commander’ Towne, for instance, and we’ve started referring to the SBA President [Drew Gibbs] as ‘His Grace, the Captain of the Dawn, Triumph of the East, the Bringer of Light.' We think that these new titles will really show people how awesome we are.”
