> [@elfkin477](#): > > [Her older sister](http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4589154/Reality-Winner-s-sister-says-accused-leaker-patriot.html) is named Sarah. Why she posts on Twitter under her sister’s name, I couldn’t tell you. If my name was “Reality”, I’d post under my sister’s name, too. And I don’t even have a sister! ---

> [@QuickSilver](#): > > I once worked with someone named Justice Tower. She was tiny and mean as a nest of vipers. There was a single mother on a reality show a while back who named her son Justus (pronounced “justice”) because it was “just us”. I guess she thought calling him Nodeaddy was taking it a tad too far… ---

Her name alone should have been reason to deny her clearance. ---

Since we’re in MPSIMS, I’ll share a mundane fact. I’m from the same hometown that Winner is from and we both attended the same high school, although she’s 15 years younger than I am. Even though it’s a small town, I don’t personally know her or her family. ---
