*This is not really a history of her childhood. This is satire. Normally, I would just rely upon you to figure that out, dear reader, but these are dark times, and it is entirely unclear what is and isn’t real when someone like Donald Trump is actually taken seriously.
Abby Fisher filed a lawsuit in 2008 when she was not accepted to The University of Texas at Austin.
Technically, actually, she was accepted to a program which would have allowed her to enter UT Austin in her sophomore year if she maintained a decent enough GPA at another school, but that was not good enough for ol’ Abs. So she sued, claiming that it was unfair to her that some minority students were accepted, but she was not.
The facts surrounding her failure to get in and the subsequent lawsuit have been well-documented, so I thought I’d take a look at her earlier history to find out where she gained the courage of her convictions.
