Actual GSA Troop Leader here to weigh in. I've been a troop leader for 7 years and I work with mostly Daisies and Brownies. To establish my own history, not in the weird spirit of one upsmanship, I actually went through all the levels of scouting- I was an only kid and we moved so much that it was a cool way to…

If it doesn't vibrate it ain't worth it.

Kim and Kanye are a concept event based on a relationship.

Murderous satanic cults don't exist. Except in the minds of fundamentalist Christians, the mentally ill and the victims of recovered memory therapy.

Aww, Ari. LOL. I have to say this Italophile was kind of not even paying attention to the break. And as you know, I am a ladyperson who usually pays attention to those things - which might give some idea as to the, um, impact of the rest of the, um, ensemble.
