(Dear Reader: This is an actual recorded conversation between two teenagers. My research has shown that it represents, with sparse variation, approximately 85% of all conversations between teenagers in America. Please help our teenagers realize that they can also talk about many other things - like going to the store or to the parking lot of the nearest fast food restaurant. It's in your hands, America. Please don't fail our teenagers in this way.)
