I have a feeling I might have mentioned this the first time around, but you'd think Dawn would like that they're called "sister schools" and not "brother schools". Isn't she the type who's all about renaming it the "winter ovester" because "semester" begins in the same way as "semen" and is thus male-dominated?

Wet blanket MA points out that SES and SMS are in session at the same time. Hello, for something like this you'll get permission to leave school for a little while.

Or, you know, they could just call the ES and have one of the teachers announce it? Oh wait, BSC > adults. My bad. Carry on.

Ms. Downey, the school secretary, will drive the girls over. In a station wagon.

Again, why can't they just CALL THE DAMN ES?!?! I'm sure the sec has better things to do than ferry the neighbourhood's pubescent cult across town.

When Dawn calls on Jordan Pike, he asks what's crawling on the wall behind Mallory

WE GET IT, ANN. You hate Mallory because she represents the nerdy, dorky little girl you used to be. Go get some therapy already. As Tiff once said, it's fun!

Ms. Besser asks Dawn to stay "exactly the same age for a few years until I have a child old enough to be baby-sat for[.]"

Because of course she won't be better once she's older and more experienced. No, once she hits 14 she won't be able to babysit anymore. ONLY 13- AND 11-YEAR-OLDS CAN BABYSIT, Y'ALL!!! Anyone older than that just sits there watching TV and smoking like the Babysitters Agency. I know Ann's obsessed with the age 13, but seriously?!

Wow, I'm bitchy today. Don't know why. XD

this. I think it's the first time I've ever seen someone express that thought on here. I don't think AMM needed therapy, I think she just needed to grow up/grow past that resentment. I did, so it can happen.

Don't worry. Dawn brings out the bitchiness in us all. :)

As for the secretary, she was actually glad to get away from her computer for an hour. Guess so, if she's willing to cart the BSC around.

Oh, she definitely went on to be that girl in University.

Yeah. I mean, I get that they'd be worried when the kids hit sixteen or seventeen and are old enough to have actual jobs at stores and stuff, but even then plenty still babysit. If anything, a thirteen year old is someone you'd worry more about, because they tend to lose interest in things and move onto new things pretty quickly. (Hence the cliche where a kid begs for a flute, so you give him a flute, but next week he wants something else because he's already bored with the flute.)
