We all had a Stephen Miller in our High School. Dateless. Mean. Obsessed. Little flecks of foam on his lips as he protested the Hispanic Homecoming queen. Most disappeared, thank gods. But Stephen's most endearing quality is how he indicts himself every time he posts--no clue how transparently evil.
