Finally read the Nerve article and, having lived and dated in both DC and NY, can attest to the fact that that article is bullsh*t on so many levels. I get the feeling that while she may have run in the intellectual or artistic power circles in NY, she did not run in the financial power circles, where she would have found a lot of the same behaviors she thinks one finds "only" in DC.
However, I will say that when I went to Georgetown people did seem to have this weird thing about SAT scores--Of course, at the time I was there, not only was it transitioning reputation-wise so there was a pretty big gap between Senior and Freshman scores, there were also with five separate schools with very different SAT thresholds for admission.

I bought a Mac Classic in 1991 and couldn't give it away in 1996. Craziness.

We have an Apple IIe in our guest room closet!
I'm not allowed to get rid of it, for some reason.
I have an original mac. I hope to be getting rid of it in the next couple of months. It still has data on it.

But you only just adopted him!
Okay, I'm going to go back to making my costume now.
I'm not allowed to get rid of it, for some reason.
Does Mike think he'll be able to sell it as an antique some day?
And, okay, the receptionist guy left for, like, a minute, and I just got bombarded with people asking me for departments and deliveries.
Like, guys? I didn't even know where the printer paper was this morning.
