Last night my friends threw another party where everyone had to prepare a 3 minute lecture on something they were passionate about. I continued my streak of winning best presentation.

High five to Vinehall School for the most cringeworthy school ad I'm ever likely to see. 'Your mug of a dad drives a Volvo *smug muttering*... but our head drives a Jaaaaag. You might buy your pathetic Dad a Jaaag one day... come to our school" Truly Weird. @VinehallSchool
