      That write up reads like a caricature. I love the last line:

      "The most liberating thing [about graduating] is now, I only answer to myself.”
      Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss

      There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

        Haha. If I were them, I would do the same thing: try to pretend it was all a joke.

          Utah teen shamed for wearing 'racist' dress to prom, sparking cultural appropriation debate

          Keziah Daum is not apologizing for wearing what she calls a "beautiful" Chinese cheongsam dress to her high school prom, despite receiving backlash from thousands of people online calling her a "closet racist" and accusing her of cultural appropriation.


          Daum, 18, posted an album of four prom pictures on Twitter on April 22 with the simple caption, "PROM." One of the photos in the album includes Daum crouching down in the traditional Chinese dress, posing with a group of her friends with their hands folded together — a gesture many deemed inappropriate.


          It didn't take long for the Internet to respond. As of Monday evening, Daum's post has been retweeted nearly 4,400 times and now she's fielding hundreds of angry comments.

          What the heck is she thinking? That dress is way to immodest for Utah.

                  "I found the dress at a vintage store in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah. I was immediately drawn to a beautiful red gown and was thrilled to find a dress with a modest neckline. Since purchasing the dress, I did some research and found various explanations regarding the history of the dress."

                          Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                            That article is a great read. Both sides are so stupid and frustrating.
