Gaming nerd ladies, having worked for Xbox tech support, who would give out free points and subscription time to nerds who called in, were nice, and stated they were taking a break from calculus.
"Yeah, I'm just trying to get some CoD in before I go back to my calculus homework. Thanks for being chill."
"No problem. It's truly my pleasure to encourage gentlemen such as yourself to continue in your most excellent efforts. Please, don't ever change. As a token of the nerd ladies' esteem, I hereby grant you 800 points and a free month of subscription time. Huzzah."

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay.
