Reasons to Miss the Grand Boasting Session
by WTWizard inthose grand boasting sessions have begun, some of them starting with children still in school (and some when they needed to be at school to take final exams).
and yet they insist on people skipping school (and work) to be at all three days of these wastefests.. now, why might there be reason to go?
curiosity is one, and that is the kind of curiosity that often leads to trouble.
