Student 1: I can't really get into the superhero movies. Tony Stark gets on my nerves.

Student 2: But, but (getting frustrated) he's loyal and always-
Student 1: Dogs are loyal-

The thirst in her 17 year old voice... I felt it. I lost it. Oh, man. I just laughed out loud. She's always been such a fun young lady. I posted about her 3 years ago- she'd wear athletic shorts for basketball and her cowboy boots? She's just really fun to be around.
She laughed too and said, "I like Beardy Cap. I cried a little when he shaved."
I told her in all the years i've known her that's the funniest thing i've ever heard her say...
