Miss Teen America
Miss Teen America is an American beauty contest that serves as a training ground for many young American girls, many of whom go on to win other titles. Winners have had ongoing columns in Supermodels Unlimited and Pageantry magazines. Miss Teen America is not associated with the Miss America Organization nor should it be confused with Miss Teen USA. In July 2010, Nikki Clark, President of Miss Teen America, Inc. became the new Executive Director of Miss Teen America.

gollark: I generally like to just dig out an underground base to at least stop mobs/rain.
gollark: NuclearCraft does have a bunch of mekanism-like chemistry stuff in it which might fit.
gollark: Yes, and I like actually totally infinite.
gollark: I do like at least the possibility of infinite resources, since fully automating stuff does tend to eventually require it.
