Ann Augspurger might have been the one to post it on the website, but where do you think she got it? Alumni coordinators aren’t going to go researching each and every alumn. They’re going to send out a blanket message asking alumns for info about themselves. ---

> [@Wolf333](#): > > He was a military doctor. It’s not like he was parachuting into combat zones on a motorcycle. He seems like a jerk, but being a military MD can be damn traumatic, if dealing with the wounded. I saw enough Friday Night Knife & Gun Club activity come to ERs in Baltimore and Milwaukee to have a few flashbacks. And in times of peace, military doctors often rotate thru ERs in such inner cities to get trauma treatment experience. ---

A Karen doesn’t like a teenager’s miniskirt. She complained to the restaurant (presumable to the manager) but after the restaurant fails to act, the goes up and confronts the teenager and her friends.

While she threatened to call authorities on the teenager, she is now the one facing criminal charges. > > In the video recorded Saturday night inside Sakura Japanese Steakhouse Ida Ann Lorenzo reprimands the teenager, telling her that if she has to watch the teen’s “a\*\* cheeks hanging out again,” she’ll call Child Protective Services. She later complained to police that video of the confrontation posted across various social media platforms labeled her a “Karen.” The teen says the woman touched her butt. She says she only touched the skirt, but now, she’s charged with sexual battery. ---
