Adjustment

Different than calibrating.

I'm trying hard to think of you as a gangster now, I dont want to underestimate you. It's an adjustment, you really were a dork 25 to 30 years ago, but some people believe that people change, and you try and adjust to how their beliefs are impacting everything and everyone around them, as they become their evil alter ego and are no longer who they were growing up any more.

World series scandal

At what point is cheating not cheating, when the teams with the most fans (Dodgers or Yankees) get the titles from all the other teams? Its interesting how the Dodgers haven't started investigating the Nationals (yet), but there's a bandwagon of support for investigating the Astros and Red Sox.

The World Series scandal went from nobody but Dodgers fans and Yankees fans having a problem with the outcome of the last few World Series to everybody wanting people out of the league and losing everything overnight. There's a lot of people who don't give something much thought until everybody else does.

Model citizen

A citizen who's a model is a model citizen.

The girl was a model citizen. She was law abiding, it was everyone else who was the criminals. Her double standards didn't count as double standards.

Friend

Not everybody you meet in life is your friend, therefore it's unrealistic to think everybody will live together as friends if they never have.

Not everybody is your friend, and there's no good reason to trust somebody who thinks you need to unify with enemies.

Monster

Something some kids ran to their mother about when they were young.

Lindsay- Mommy the monster attacked me! Help!
Lindsay's Mother- It's gonna be okay, I'll get you working closely with law enforcement when you grow up, that way you can talk as much shit as you want. You're my mouth of the south even if everybody else in life rejects you.
