Right. It really was her parents' job to say, "Honey, your scores weren't good enough. Now, you've got some other great choices. Quit whining! Be proud of what you've accomplished, and move forward."

What about their test scores? Their other admission standards? Do you have those memorized as well?

We already do much of this. Those who argue against affirmative action always seem to mysteriously forget that affirmative action covers a larger number of circumstances that aren't based on color of skin.

It was a really sad and terrible joke. But, I could. not. help. myself.

Probably after Harry. The rest aren't as cute. I mean, Liam is nice, but no. And Zayn is a silly spelling. hahaha! Seriously, just kidding. Sorry. Tired. Don't mind me.

At least they didn't name her "Go." Or Kwest. Which could totally have happened.

They really are slacking, aren't they?

Yes! We are the same!!!

Please let the middle name be "South East."
