A study needs to be done on why English teachers have the most positive impact towards their students🥹🥹

"First it was Brat. Now it's Demure. I can't keep up?" My brother or sister in back pain and mortgage payments. This is not for us. You don't need to understand it any more than my dad needed to understand Pokemon. Just nod and be happy for them.
