Seems like we didn’t have all these problems on college campuses when the drinking age was 18. Just saying.

Cut out snowflakes?
Entirely verboten, because scissors = trigger event.
Even Do-bee blunts...

I have an adult friend who visited me for a weekend and took out her coloring book! I couldn’t believe it. Aside from being very rude, has she been diagnosed as a frustrated inept sociopath? Showbiz folk?
Should have put in a leashed plus size toddler harness and dragged him/her out for walkies to a nearby hydrant.
