But I really don't think it is anyone's business.

7. There used to be enough people...
...but after the online potato famine hit, they all moved to the New York Affairs room and started having flamewars with Daniel Day Lewis in a weird moustache.

30. All the cute girls have boyfriends
It seems like they hold on to them until something better comes along. You just never know, you might be that something better.
