• The truth is overrated

  
  J-TWO-O — Authority: 125
  I used to tell the truth, but it was always getting me in trouble. For example, you know how women always ask their friends "Do these jeans make my ass look big?"

• The typical reaction and open arms

  
  Stylish Handwriting — Authority: 117
  Today was long. L-O-N-G. And really emotional. Two teenagers from this area lost their lives in an accident this past weekend, and I spent my entire day documenting friends and family saying their goodbyes.
