This is a note that one of my sisters friends started writing to her as an English assignment. She stopped shortly after when the teacher changes her mind about who they were writing these notes to. I promise you this is exactly how it was written....

Making fun of the mentally handicapped is not cool man. She must have some kind of disability.

But she is the boss...

But don't fret Nuke, this is just Hannah Montana talk. It is a common syndrome that effects most young girls. The cure? Surprisingly, lol, the cure is crucifixion.

She must be in like the super, super low English classes. That, or her mom has just jipped her way through the system for her.

I remember kids that had that atrocious of spelling, but they always got to take the "alternate" tests and stuff in class.

That's ridiculous though. I can understand why you died.

She's not in any substitute english. She's in AP eng 3. I am appalled also because she has no mental disability. She's just that freakin' dumb and her mother is no better.

Pro tip to teachers that they seem to have forgotten:

HUMILIATION is the best learning tool. Put that note on the board and make it homework for the kids in the class to correct it and that will either crush* that girl or make her stronger.



*one so easily crushed obviously does not deserver her places in the 4th Reich

"Doesn't matter what the press says. Doesn't matter what the politicians or the mobs say. Doesn't matter if the whole country decides that something wrong is something right. This nation was founded on one principle above all else: the requirement that we stand up for what we believe, no matter the odds or the consequences. When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world - "No, you move.""

Chase has heard this story, but I'll share it.



I'm taking a Later English Masterworks class, and our professor asked us if we knew any 18th century english authors. When she got not answers, I remarked that I was in the class to learn because I knew so few. Then a girl in the back of the room said this:

"Is Shakespeare 18th century?"






I wanted to kill her over and over again.

One of my sisters friends saw a stock photo of the Colloseum as our background on the pc at home. They then proceeded to ask "Is that the alamo?"

When told no, it was in fact most definately NOT the Alamo, they proceeded to ask,
"Well is it a hotel then?"

Until our resident historian (homosexual) enlightened me, I had absolutely no fucking idea when Shakespeare was around.

I actually got the century classifications wrong because I'm always forgetting what centuries the various 00's count as.

19th century is 1800s? FUCK I FORGOT.

The various British Dynasties I knew though, by being super cool.

I need to start finding these people and asking them about moderately famous musicians. Like J.S. Bach not even any of his kids, just J.S. Bach maybe Handel.

There should be a test required to be able to teach. Some form of examination as to where your general and specialty knowledge are examined to make sure they reach a certain quality controled level to insure that our children get the best possible education. Ohwaitthereis! too bad it's like a high jump bar that's set at the 4'' mark.

wat

I don't get it...

That makes perfect sense. He declined the opportunity to receive the money because he disagreed with the politics behind it. That article doesn't really explain what the federal government requires from the states who receive the money, but I'm sure it's incredibly strict. The stipulations are probably ridiculous and funding would most likely be cut as soon as the state deviates from whatever plan the government has set. I'm not a fan of Rick Perry, but I at least admire the fact that he's willing to stick to his principles and decline that amount of money knowing where it's coming from.

I dunno... MAYBE I'M CRAZY. Crazy like a FOX(NEWS).

Honestly I don't see anything wrong with a nation-standard testing setup. Also,

doesn't sound like a bad thing.

I agree it probably has a lot of silly strings attached, though. This IS the government, we are talking about.
