T: McMillen says one student told her, "Thanks for ruining my senior year." HAHAHAHAHA, YOUR LIFE IS SO EMPTY AND VAPID WITHOUT PROM YOUR SENIOR YEAR IS RUINED.
Me: Remember when I didn't go to prom ever? And I grew up to have other more fulfilling experiences? And it all turned out fine?
T: Well, obviously look how you turned out — a lonely, sorrowful, empty shell of a person whose entire life would have been different if only she had slow-danced to a radio-friendly and sappy Green Day song.

I heard he watches it in the Situation...

Him: From the Onion: "President Obama's doctors hinted he may still be smoking, despite his efforts to quit. What do you think?" "I thought it was pretty obvious when they planted tobacco in the new White House organic garden."
Me: Honestly? I would say being inaugurated at this point in history probably tops the list of "worst possible times to quit smoking."
Him: Two wars, the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression, trying to get health care legislation passed, keeping together his own feuding party, reforming the entire business sector... Yeah, sort of stressful.
Me: Plus, THE BACHELOR. I heard it was a really contentious finale last night.
