										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Under new administration, the Keystone XL pipeline has been seeking new ownership after deals with the US government fell through. Excitingly, this came with a significant price drop due to the unusually large nature of the pipe. While few in the oil industry saw a viable new use for the large throughput pipe, visionaries on The Tech’s board of directors saw a new use: rapid beer delivery. As it turns out, the unused pipe was found to deliver the unusually high volume necessary to quench the stress-induced thirst of engineers.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">After striking a deal with the Coors Brewing Company, the pipeline was aptly dubbed the ‘Keystone Light XL’ Pipeline, which will happily provide Keystone Light to mask the metallic taste of the pipe with a flavor that already seems to taste skunked from the factory. While not confirmed, rumors began to swirl early Monday about also plumbing the school steam system boiler with the same supply, due to Keystone Light actually being worth less than water.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It wasn’t all sunshine and roses though, as interviews with fraternity brothers unveiled. When approached for an interview, ΠEE brother Kyle Edgye explained there was “Literally no way for the boys to shotgun the pipeline.” A tragic loss indeed. A local liquor store owner who wished to remain anonymous stated that he was scared about the loss of sales. “It’s an impossible battle. The pipeline is even better at ignoring fakes than we are.”, explained the owner. When this complication and others like it are resolved, we are eager to see the impact the pipeline will have on the local frat scene.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The thoughts and opinions expressed in this article are not representative of the author’s music taste or the music taste of the Institute as a whole. That’s because they’re facts.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ol start="10">
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> “Slide” by Calvin Harris ft. Frank Ocean / Closer &#8211; The Chainsmokers /  All Night Longer &#8211; Sammy Adams / “Lean On” by Major Lazer / “Sorry” by Justin Bieber</span></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">…  etc etc</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Don’t kid yourself, these are all the same song. [Song title] by [Artist Name] is the Natty Light of music. The first one was tough to stomach. After 10 of them, they go down like water! Literally perfect for when you can’t hear anything anyway! </span></p>
<ol start="9">
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Old Town Road (Remix) &#8211; Lil Nas X &amp; Billy Ray Cyrus</span></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Where were you when racism was officially ended? Relive that moment over and over again at your favorite fraternity rager. Just make sure that your horses are in the back, your hat is matte black, and that you have the boots to match. Yee. Haw.</span></p>
<ol start="8">
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Low &#8211; Flo Rida</span></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The best song for dipping your ass into frat party basement sludge, Low manages to amp up the crowd without fail. If the dance floor wasn’t crowded enough, picture 100 unathletic WPI students trying to do squats at the same time. Sounds like a party to me.</span></p>
<ol start="7">
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Gold Digger &#8211; Kanye West</span></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Despite being able to sing only half the song’s lyrics, the woo tech student body continues to eat this shit up weekend after weekend. With an average starting salary of $69,000 in 2017, this song hits close to home for many here at WPI. Thank you Kanye, very cool!</span></p>
<ol start="6">
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Mr. Brightside &#8211; The Killers</span></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If the national anthem were written by drunk white people, it would sound like Mr. Brightside by The Killers. Statistically, the most likely time for freshman to be transported is during this song. </span></p>
<ol start="5">
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Gasolina &#8211; Daddy Yankee ft. Glory</span></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Escúchame. Just because you got back from IQP in Ecuador doesn’t mean you’re qualified to sing along to this. Trying to remember lyrics in a language you don’t know just makes you look ēstupido. </span></p>
<ol start="4">
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Paper Planes &#8211; M.I.A.</span></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cha-ching! The sound effects in this song alone make it an instant classic. The only reason that this one isn’t higher on the list is because we live in Worcester, and those might be real gunshots. Stay safe out there.</span></p>
<ol start="3">
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Any song by Lizzo</span></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Oh that boy who you weren’t dating just broke up with you? Time to grab your girls and show the 70% male population at WPI what women empowerment really looks like. 100% that bitch aimiright ladies!</span></p>
<ol start="2">
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Hey Ya! &#8211; OutKast</span></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">See http://reductress.com/post/6-desserts-that-are-better-than-sex-but-not-as-good-as-hey-ya-by-outkast/</span></p>
<ol>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Hey Ya! &#8211; OutKast</span></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">OutKast does it  yet again! Topping the charts for the second time in the same list, Hey Ya! proves to be a mainstay in both fraternity basements, and our hearts. &lt;3</span></p>
