He looks like I did when I was persuaded into taking a girl I really didn’t want to go with to my junior prom. My mother didn’t like the look on my face when we were taking pictures and took me into the back yard and whisper bitched me out. She said “You wanted to go with someone else but you were too afraid to ask her. That’s not this girl’s fault. You WILL treat her like a lady! You can wipe that God Damn look off your face!”
