Alex: Well, at least I can still get my politics on in my poli sci class... Girl: Which course you taking? Alex: Women in politics. We're looking at the pre-Hillary forerunners like Lacey Davenport, who my grammy used to work for. I actually met her a few times back in my baby days. Girl: Wow... you knew her? Isn't that a conflict of interest? Alex: Um... is it? Should I recuse myself from class? Girl: Well, at least disclose it to your T.A.

it’s the hair.

I thought it was the eyebrows.

It’s the nose. No cute button nose.

Susan001, shame on you. Shame, shame, shame. With that superficial comment you just bought into the whole oppressive, patriarchal system that invented facelifts, botox, and skinny supermodels, and pressures all women to conform to the same set of narrow criteria.
Besides, maybe she’ll grow into it or use her looks to good advantage… after all, she shows the most famous signature traits of Phyllis Diller and Bob Hope, all in one person.

Susan001 - you’re correct, and I agree, but she can’t do anything about the “Nixon Nose” (short of surgery, and she doesn’t seem the type). I figure she’ll outgrow the bad hair stage.
OOOORRRRR…. maybe GT plans for her to transfer to Miskatonic U. in Arkham for her graduate work… she’d fit right in there.

Well, Alex’s face might be resemble as her father, Mike. But her hair looked like “punk” hairstyle. She needs to change her hairstyle.

I agree, a new hair style might help.

I have a niece about Alex’s age and if she changes her hair it probably be wilder not milder.

Yes, My 19 year old has green hair today. She needed a change.
