Katy Perry: And the Grammy goes to, fun.
Nate Ruess: Um, alright. I didn't think we were gonna win this one, I'm gonna be honest. I GOT TO PEE SO BAD so I'm gonna leave this up to one of these guys who are just the most amazing band mates that anybody could ever have.

Campsite rule

coined by dan savage, in relationships with a large age disparity, at the end of the relationship, the elder partner should leave the younger in "better shape than they found them". This includes no diseases, no fertilized eggs, no undue emotional trauma, and whatever education that can be provided.

i wish that my older boyfriend would have observed the campsite rule with me, now i have a broken heart and a monthly prescription for valtrex.
