At this time, I opened my electronic mail to see Brooke Barker’s publication about how an adolescent complimented her outfit this weekend. The title was, “Is that this drippy,” adopted by “Is that even good” — which made me giggle out loud.

I keep in mind a late-summer afternoon after I was a preteen; I placed on a brand new Hypercolor shirt and rode my bike round our suburb.
