Wot’s Life<br />

with Daria & Quinn<br />

“In your opinion, what is the best kind of pizza?”<br />

D: The free kind.<br />

Q: None! Pizza is greasy and grease gives you acne. You don’t<br />

need that negativity in your life.<br />

“How do I make a statement?”<br />

D: A statement is a sentence that declares something, and<br />

doesn’t end with an exclamation or question mark. To make<br />

one, you – oh, you meant a social statement? Well, I heard meat<br />

dresses are getting popular.<br />

Q: The biggest statement you can make is not making a statement.<br />

Just try to blend in, while looking slightly better than<br />

everybody else. Trust me, trying to stand out in a crowd just<br />

makes you look desperate. This way, people will respect you<br />

for your confidence and cuteness, but if you don’t have either,<br />

it’s probably better that you don’t draw attention to yourself<br />

anyway.<br />

“I’ve been thinking a lot lately, and I’m getting<br />

kind of freaked out. Why am I here? What am I<br />

supposed to do with my time on Earth? What is my<br />

purpose in life?”<br />

D: Your purpose in life is the same as everybody else’s; to grow<br />

up, get a job, get married, buy a house, have kids to please your<br />

parents before they die, and then watch your kids have kids before<br />

you die. You’re here to continue the incredible cycle of life.<br />

Q: Purpose? You mean, something more than striving to<br />

achieve the cutest look you can?<br />

“Do you have any motivational study tips?”<br />

D: Motivate yourself with the knowledge that getting good<br />

grades means you’ll get into college and out of your hometown.<br />

Q: You don’t need to study! If you date a guy from your class, he<br />

can help tutor you.<br />

D: By ‘help tutor you’, do you really mean ‘do your assignments<br />

for you’?<br />

Q: Don’t be silly, Daria, that counts as tutoring.<br />
