Ramifications of the Financial Crisis
Girl at the other end of the table, talking to her friend but still clearly within earshot: "I haven't gotten a job and my parents won't put up with me. If I don't get a job, then I won't be able to get the health insurance. And if I don't get the health insurance, then I won't be able to get the medicine. And if I don't get the medicine, I won't get out of bed in the morning to brush my teeth!"

the nerdiest abusive relationship ever
Science at Harvard is like an abusive boyfriend. Every semester you think that was awful; I'll never do that again. Then the next semester begins and you think "it'll be different this time, better" and it's not. Took me a long time to get out of that relationship. One year clean.
