  14. You crack me UP!! Hahaha!! I was on the drill/dance team all throughout high school and on the dance team in college, so I now ALLLLL about jazz hands! I can't believe you know so much. Man, I loved this post. I also loved the past about giving the FB "thumbs up" on tragic posts. You are heartless. Absolutely heartless. Like Kanye. Sidenote: I do NOT know what the Cheeseboy was referring to when speaking of kidneys and Subway. I bet they have kidney Subway sandwiches in the UK. Also...LOVE the idea for "Underappreciated Ladies of Industry"! I might just go with that. It sounds so edgy b/c it reminds me of "Freak of the Industry". Ha! Okay, bye.
