Sometimes we get pissed off at America. “America,” we say, when we feel like we are being tested, “Why do you make so many mean people, and stupid people, and arrogant people, and fat people, and unfriendly cashiers?” And America is like, “You’re just jealous,” because America knows that will always stump us, even though it doesn’t really make any sense. But then there are some moments when we are so glad we live in the U.S. of A. Because it is a meritocracy! A land where your dreams can be achieved, as long as you want it enough! And as long as you own a formal gown in a cool “icy” color, such as ivory, silver, light-gray, slate, ice-blue, ice-violet, and are basically thin and blonde and white or, you know, white-acting:

We are also seeking a gentleman who can portray 18-28 y/o with full traditional black tuxedos with ivory or buff colored vests.
Sorry, we got a little overexcited there. But you know, it’s fine. Some people are just meant to hang around in the background for a little while, because some people’s special chances come later in life. Some people just have different paths, you know. Because it’s all a journey.
