Laura and Nick have been dating for over a year and Nick’s family still accidentally calls her Lisa. Why is that so hurtful? Because that was his ex-girlfriend’s name. Nick has mentioned it to his parents but they continue to do it. He says they are absent minded and don’t mean it as an insult. She wants him to call them and explain once again that it’s inappropriate and to call her by her correct name. He says she’s overreacting, she can just remind them when they make the mistake. What do you think? 

Jennifer has got a shot at $400! All she has to do is beat Raven in pop culture trivia!
