Match the quote to the speaker. To give you a break from problem sets, it should be pretty easy, but answers after the jump anyway. Good luck!

@listen to your alum Seriously, Barry’s got it right. Cut the administrative waste, streamline shit. This place will never be affordable, but it’s a step in the right direction.
@Uhh... That quote could probably be attributed to any member of Council so it’s not really fair to single this Shirley girl out.
@AJ Pascua We lost, you all hate us, we get it. Stop posting trash about us.
Just because Shirley and I want to be investment bankers doesn’t mean we’re bad people. We wanted to bring actual change to this campus – I don’t get all the BS on this website about resume padding.
I guess you bitter people out there hiding behind the internet will never know. Class of 2010-
good luck next year.
@ALERT Gotta admit, it is pretty nasty to take these shots. You don’t like someone, don’t be a fucking coward and post it on a comment forum.
The internet isn’t a private place; then again, I guess you guys don’t know that.
Gluck, AJ

@sunburnt No swine flu mention, Bwog?
Also, let me join the “grow the hell up” chorus regarding the Shirley troll.
@Oy with the poodle Wow you’re….cool? I really don’t get this.
First, who the hell are you talking about? Second, stop watching Gossip Girl. In real life it’s not being catty, you’re just sad and not twelve I assume. And three, posting the same thing in three different headlines confirms that you are a creature devoid of wit. If you’re gonna be bitchy, be good at it.
@Gilmore Girls? Oy with the poodles already?
@bitter much? I don’t know any of those Council people and I don’t care. But you really don’t deserve to be here if you’re still juicy-campusing the winning Council ticket.
@Really mature…
