Dumbing of Age

She did ask Dina's parents to adopt her that one time.

I wonder if Sarah still has a little sister in this universe.

Sarah had a sister in the Walkyverse?

Why do Americans think that saying "pip pip" makes them sound English? I haven't heard anyone saying "pip pip" outside of a P.G.Wodehouse dramatisation (and not that often in those) ... well, ever, so far as I recall.

It seems like a posh expression that was fashionable for about ten minutes in the Victorian era and never again.

You'd think she would be big on 5.

"Honour thy father and thy mother"? She apparently is. That's kind of the point here, isn't it?

But what's the other one she's fluffed? I'm sure that she doesn't work Sundays, and I don't see any graven images in her room... I guess she may have coveted something, but I'm not sure what. And the lie to her mother wasn't actually bearing false witness against a neighbour. I guess she may just read number nine as a blanket prohibition on lying.

Yeah, my temple generally uses a very broad interpretation of "neighbor".

Unfortunately, the ten commandments is an all-or-nothing deal. (At least, that's how I remember it being explained to me.)

Yeah... and she's even outright lying, which means she can't take the early Christian defense of Prevarication, that misleading by omitting information can be serviceable in the greater good.

That said, it's always been a matter of interpretation. Just look at how "Thou shalt not kill" (closer to "Thou shalt not murder") and "Thou shalt not commit adultery" (It's explicitly stated in the Gospels that lusting after a woman is committing adultery, but the Old Testament establishes that a fair amount of behavior is not adultery as long as it's not with married people).

She's going to sleep in her Uggs?

Well, I needed to add some comic relief somehow.

On the few occasions I've slept in an upper bunk, I've found the ladder really uncomfortable to stand on in bare feet, so I'd wear shoes to climb up, and if I was thinking ahead, I'd keep them on the bed so I could wear them again to go back down.

Were socks not enough?

The narrow rails cut into my soles. Socks helped a little, but not enough.

It isn't Becky's fault.

Fundamentalist douchecanoes that think "gay=EVIL", that's whose fault it is.

Copyright information is pretty important

He needs to talk to his girl. She's the studying ninja, he is the grasshopper that needs a master to learn from.

Don't worry Walky, I kinda sucked at the whole studying thing too, for the same reason as you

You cruised through high school without really trying, and thus didn't really know how to study?

Write the crib notes on your girlfriend. Not that you'll have her strip for the test, just that it'll make it easier to remember.

Downside is you'll get these weird boners during tests.

"The answer to number 11..........mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm............."

There's a John K. PeTa manga about that...

I know I did. I didn't have particularly great grades, but finishing high school was simple enough.

Oh look, more of my old thought processes

Has Bryan shown up in the Walkyverse before or is he actually Original Generation?

EDIT And I just answered my own question.
