Poster 3: My favorite is yellow.

OP: Yeah I don't get yellow at all! That's so weird!

Poster 4: Pink's the best.

OP: How did you know?! Pink is my second most favorite color!

Teensitting 

Looking after a teenager with the same attentiveness you'd give a pre-teen, regardless of whether this is justified or not.
With every other adult out, I was expected to be teensitting all day.
