‘Our professors became friends’

When I first began college, I found it strangely disengaging.

The show, Sherlock, portrays the renowned detective Sherlock Holmes and his friend, Dr John Watson but with a pleasant variation — their adventures set in the 21st century.

I’d like to give you a nice going away present. But first, you have to do your part posts one friend on Facebook. It’s funny of course, so it gets 30 likes and 40 comments. ‘He: “Drinking makes you look beautiful.” She: “I haven’t been drinking.” He: “But I have!” comes one more witty comment from another friend. Result? 30 likes
