Jericho’s Strange Obsession
A Satirical Report By ASHLEY CHEN and MICHELLE WU
To make this crazy time even crazier, Jericho students have been obsessed with reminiscing on past trends. As we look into what students have been doing, we start to wonder if they have crossed the line of obsession…
Mikaela R. like many others was obsessed with playing Fortnite during quarantine. But rather than playing the actual game, she enjoyed leisurely strolls on the beaches of Sweaty Sands and was committed to riding the sharks. She now puts on her shark costume every night just to remember the thrill.
Kelly X. has been obsessed with Tiger King ever since it first came out last March. She was determined to uncover whether Carole Baskin really killed her husband, whacked him. In order to uncover the truth, she decided the only way was to become Joe Exotic himself.
Tina M. suffers from Charli D’Amelio syndrome. Before she goes to class each morning she has to order a Dunkin’ coffee and film three TikToks.
Alexis K. has taken her Minecraft obsession to a whole new level. Her whole life is now revolving around beating the Ender Dragon. You can frequently see her training in her backyard, swinging a cardboard diamond sword around.
Karis P. like every other workout fanatic used her free time during quarantine to get fit. Her idol was the one and only Chloe Ting. She has a shrine to The Great Chloe in her closet where she photoshopped her own face onto Chloe’s but don’t tell anyone it’s a secret…
Olivia P. always thought she knew what was real and what was cake, but does she even know herself…?
Very cute!
