The DUFF
The DUFF (teen slang for "Designated Ugly Fat Friend") is a 2015 American high school teen comedy film directed by Ari Sandel. The screenplay by Josh Cagan was based on the 2010 novel of the same name by Kody Keplinger. The film stars Mae Whitman, Robbie Amell, Bella Thorne, Nick Eversman, Skyler Samuels, Bianca Santos, Allison Janney, and Ken Jeong. The DUFF was distributed by CBS Films via Lionsgate. CBS also produced the film with Vast Entertainment and Wonderland Sound and Vision. It was released on February 20, 2015, and was the first film for which Lionsgate took over CBS Films' distribution functions. It received positive reviews from critics, with praise for Whitman's performance. Comparisons were frequently drawn to the cult teen films Mean Girls (2004) and Easy A (2010). Against a budget of $8.5 million, the film grossed $43 million at the box office.
Solved my ass. This school, this entire school, is filled with cyber bullies. Do you know what that means? That means retaliation videos. Comments, likes, Tweets, memes, and whatever the hell else they do to each other nowadays. It's like a prison yard out there. Look, don't you think you're overreacting just a little bit? Have you not seen Dateline? Catfish? Pretty Little Liars? - What? - Nothing.

Attention, students. The halls of our prestigious institution have been compromised by the stench of cyber bullying. It is the stench of ones and zeroes and electronic hardware probably manufactured somewhere in China. But these "YOLO terrorists" will not be tolerated. Malloy High will now be put under Internet martial law. That's right. Each student will be required to turn in their phones to teachers and retrieve at the end of the day until we have gotten to the bottom of this. No more phone. Oh, can you hear me now, jerks? There will be no Vine, no Flickr, no Tumblr, - no Tinder, no Facebook, no Hulu... - Just say no Internet. We get it. ...no Grindr, no WhatsApp, no Instagram, no Pinterest, no wiki anything.
