Human emotions are for poor people.

Ugg Girl #1: So this weekend I was totally drunk and the cab I was in totally fucking hit some girl. It, like, totally ruined my buzz.
Ugg Girl #2: Oh my God! Was she okay?
Ugg Girl #1: We got out and she was sitting in the street just twitching and shit. Some girl we were with knew CPR, but she was just as drunk as I was. It just killed the buzz I had going on.

Girl #2: Uh, aren't you a vegetarian?

Self-esteem-boosting tip o' the day: Get yourself some new friends.

Girl #1: (Talking to Girl #2) If you're going to work at Hooters you might as well be a stripper.

Guy: But don't bartenders do the same thing for better tips?
Girl #3: That's different.
Guy: So this means nobody would care if I became a male stripper?
Girl #1: Nobody cares what you do anyway.

Girls #1, #2, and #3 all laugh.

Nonsense, dear. They could just smell your friend's desperation.

Ugg Boots Girl: Are you kidding me? Doesn't he know that we wear Ugg boots because guys think we look cute in them?
Big Bag Girl: Yeah, it's not like a girl can look cute in running shoes!

Looking for depth at Western? This guy will be single forever.

Guy #1: Why'd you break it off with your girl?
Guy #2: Don't get me wrong, she was really nice and sweet, but I guess a little shallow? She was pretty frivolous about most things. Life is just a party to her - one long night at The Drink. It's fun for a while, but then you need to talk to someone and feel like you're not talking to MTV.

-- Centre Spot, overheard by Brian

Somewhere in Canada, a high school English teacher's head just exploded.

Prof: To be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep...
Girl #1: That's a quote from Billy Madison!
