by the President
of the United States.

Maybe LBJ,

It's not your son's fault.
It's yours.

171
00:08:59,330 --> 00:09:02,458
You have to hover over your kid's
shoulder to force him to succeed.

It's called

helicopter Bart.

called Lisa.

Oh, right. Your second grader.
Sure she's smart,

176
00:09:12,427 --> 00:09:15,513
but how could she be successful
if she's not popular?

Well, I...

00:09:52,216 --> 00:09:54,093
No time! I'll just
deduce where you were

from a list of

Monday is the balsa wood

The American Balsa Council
will award this year's winner

a $1000 savings bond
for their college education.

$1000? That's what

Too obvious.

231
00:11:58,843 --> 00:12:01,345
in the "What's wrong with my
daughter" section of the bookstore.

232
00:12:01,429 --> 00:12:03,556
It tells you how
you can get popular.

233
00:12:03,639 --> 00:12:06,684
Dad, if I join a clique, I'll
be the kind of person I hate.

234
00:12:06,767 --> 00:12:09,145
Sweetie, our country
was founded by a clique,

235
00:12:09,228 --> 00:12:12,565
the Continental Congress!
Dolphins swim in cliques.

236
00:12:12,648 --> 00:12:14,275
Those are my two examples.

Well, they are good ones.

how this book works,

239
00:12:18,738 --> 00:12:21,115
I will demonstrate
on some rats.

to wear suspenders

in the circus.

are clown-like?

Oh, God. I feel so insecure.
Please be my friend.

See? It works. And unsults
are just the beginning.

250
00:12:48,851 --> 00:12:51,562
There's also
"Envytations," "Hate hugs,"

251
00:12:51,646 --> 00:12:53,773
"Spamming with
faint praise," and...

mean "everyone" everyone.

And the Washington Monument is the
most uninspired model choice there is.
