Even during her full downward slurring spiral, I'm pretty sure Laurel would've thought to call child services about the two homeless orphans squatting in her apartment. Barbara seems like someone who shouldn't be left alone without adult supervision.

I LEARNED IT FROM YOU! I LEARNED IT FROM WATCHING YOU!

CAPTION CONTEST!

No, I mean it. You are a smart person who definitely does not feel he has nothing to prove and no way to do it except for lashing out at strangers on the internet. We should all aspire to be more like you.
