    Wow. Really?

    Some high school students made a Facebook page with stereotypes of all the schools in my city. Some parent got pissed off and complained and made a huge deal about it, and now it's on the news, saying the page was bullying and racist despite targeting the school as a whole rather than actual students. I never heard about it until now, but it's irritating, especially since the stereotypes were pretty dead on. And as usual, the school board gives no shits about them.



    I have a Graphics Shop now. Graphics Shops are cool.
    I run a roleplaying site too!

    I think most of my local school stereotypes where right though I think, in hindsight, we may have misjudged Tranmoore

    Anytime I tell anyone what junior high school I attended, they gasp and try to comfort me.

    Sounds like a couple of my friends. They went to a terrible middle school.

    High schools around here are full of punk-ass wannabe gang bangers, stupid fucks who have delusions of grandeur, and the regular plebeians who realize they're ordinary.

    And then, there's the other kind. The cynical assholes like me.

    I was a bit insulted by the sterotype of girls at my school... But then laughed for a solid five minutes because it was so right. I haven't been watching the news as I know the topics for the state level competition, and they're really nothing too incredibly recent that BBC.cocm hasn't been commenting on.

    Silly parents, all in denial. XD
