...hairs (sheep which grow human hair for wigs) both products of the “Corps”—an alliance of corporations (among them, Happicuppa, HelthWyzer, CyroJeenyus) whose laboratories and workers live in gated communities. Outside the Corps are the Pleeblands, a proto-Gotham, but with grosser food and nastier crime. There’s something revolting and enchanting about Atwood’s creations—a fast food chain called “SecretBurgers: Because Everyone Loves A Secret” or “Painball,” a security facility in which convicts...

It is the all-time highest grosser (surpassing the 2004 Lindsay Lohan-Tina Fey comedy Mean Girls) for the last weekend in April, when traditionally hardly anyone goes to the movies...
...likes you. Dear Kirkland, nice face. Lowell, I’m just going to accuse you of having cockroaches. Yet Adams deserves every ounce of prestige credited to it. So, if you stroll in like you are the cock of the walk, despite being a freshman or, even grosser, a Dunster resident, and a handsome gentleman in a lifeguard chair re-stolen from the MAC blows a whistle, mocks you on a megaphone, and leads two hundred people hand-picked by the gods in booing you, deal with it.
