It's not like they're gonna put a hold on your student account, or withold grades. They'll basically just give you a stern look that you won't even be able to see, unless you're both connected to iChat.

There is a community of suffering in Butler, just like the community of suffering between Raskolnikov and Sonya. I also love Foucault and indie music.
