<p>yeah rings a bell. why does that fit you or a chancing thread about you.</p>

<p>not funny</p>

5

<p>thank you mr. humorous, go read or something</p>

6

<p>You received an award for 60 hours over THREE YEARS? That’s kind of pathetic.</p>

<p>You’re sort of a blah kid from New Jersey, which is the kiss of death. Are you applying to Wharton at Penn?</p>

7

<p>no it wasnt because of 60 hours over three years, it was cause the kid i worked with passed away after i did like 25 hrs with him.
and yes, the wharton school of business at Penn im applying to…and also i know im like the typical kid, thats why i was wondering</p>

8

<p>yeah good job making a judgment on me based on me not liking your bad attempt at being funny. i don’t read unless i have to for school really. there are rare occasions other than that.</p>

<p>yeah lets use a character a 4 year old movie that would be hilarious!!!</p>

9

<p>if your parents don’t love you whatever, its all good i mean we can still be best friends and all. btw, you know you’re the man when you go to college confidential to badmouth people!</p>

<p>haha thats not why i go here. and who said anything about my parents not loving me. you started badmouthing by telling me to go read?</p>

<p>haha im not too far from nj if youre trying to get at me.</p>
