Continuing on with the hi interns and welcome! For those of you going into the preservationist or wrangler tracks (or you just like fun!), I host trivia nights at the pub every week. Usually I have a list of prepared topics to give people a fighting chance, but I thought it would be fun to open it up to see what you all would like to be quizzed on this week! We're doing it jeopardy style (for my 🕰️👶🏼, here's a clip!), and the one topic I have for us this week is Taylor Swift lyrics in honor of her getting her masters!

We need 4 more categories, so let's go!

GIRL SQUAD

Okay. I have a blind date(??) tonight. What do I wear? I don't want to look like I'm trying too hard because this is really just a casual thing? But I also don't want him to think that I'm not trying, so I'm kind of in a bind.

Also, kind of surprised because I lowkey thought that he and Jack were a thing? Or him and Emmett. Do you think their cruisers? Because I'm not not willing to try that.

Oh. It's Benny, by the way.

But what if he's awful at it and this is a disaster?

What? Why would he be?

~~I just don't thi~~ [...] I'm less confident in the match up than I'd like to be, I suppose.

In the matchup? Or in Benny? I'm certain that even if sparks don't fly, he'll be a complete gentleman.

I'm not doubting that. [...] I suppose it is just a date.

What else would it be? [...] Is everything alright, darling?

I just don't want Cris to be disappointed if he's not interested.

Why.... Wouldn't he? Cris is one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen.

You're right. He probably will be.

Would that be... Bad? If he was?

No? I just think it might be awkward if he's not. After she's just gone on and on about his arms in public.

Oh, I don't think Cris cares about that sort of thing.

[...]

Do you have any thoughts on his arms? They are nice.

Good.

I think that's just an objective fact.

Do you have any thoughts on his arms? Or any other [...] aspect of his person?

Benny's wonderful, but I think we established that already. That was not the concern.

I don't understand the concern.

The concept of a blind date sounds incredibly awkward when one person has expressed interest and the other has not. That's all.

I see?. I don't think Cris has ever been awkward a day of her life. We don't have to worry about that.

And Benny is a straight shooter. He'll be able to handle himself as well. There's no reason to be worried about either of them.
