  1. @3liza We'll settle this debate with Science!
  2. @3liza We're shambling into semantics now. Have two children crated and ready to be shipped to Vienna by the time I wake up tomorrow!

  16. It was indeed, sir. Every amateurish line.
  17. "This work looks like it was done under duress."
  18. My end of... whatever, college, review by dept. head Thomas Woodruff contained this juicy line:
  19. "Well, you're not very good but your grades are decent so you'll probably get in." Turns out he was correct.
