While I am with you about New Zealand’s laws, I’m also a little fed up with “OMG, a *journalist* is having troubles!” Am I the only one tired of being asked to view that caste as one small step short of angels on earth?

College students in need of a “cry room” should be told: “Your ‘cry room’ is your room at home, the one you lived in while attending high school. Go back there and cry as much as you want. To help you on your way, we are revoking your enrollment and marking your dorm room as available, effective next Monday. Remove all of your belongings from the dorm by 5:00 on Friday or we’ll dispose of them. You are welcome to apply for readmission as soon as you have grown up. College is for adults, and you are clearly not ready to be one.”
