I'd start watching non-streaming TV again if Ferguson came back.

In fairness, you don't have to look that hard.

It also doesn't say if they didn't. We have no reason to believe that they didn't yell at him.

At this point, the whole secondary education system in the US is a giant scam to create debtors for the next 20-30 years.

It's pronounced "ten" right?
