There’s a crisis. - ✰ - tai: Would it be discrimination to only hire employees at my doughnut shop who have the same name? celeste: Legally, I don't believe that breaches any discrimination laws. Morally though... I don't know. tai: I believe god is on my side when it comes to Duncans' Doughnuts. - ✰ - celeste: *speaking Spanish* tai: I know, I know. yue: You speak Spanish? tai: No. I just know the phrase, 'this is all your fault' in every language celeste speaks. - ✰ - celeste: How the heck did you crash the car?! yue: So I was just driving today, right?
