Hey, Jar Jar's a genius!

Certainly compared to Bioware's writing team

[Jackrabbit]

You know what makes me rage? Every single time? That Glee show. Everything about it is rage inspiring, everything.

It's not that bad. Kinda, well, musical-ly, which makes sense, but I got bored by episode 6 to be honest.

[Ultimuh]

Wait.. did they bring back whoever you got killed

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Ashley or Kaidan

in ME1 back to life?

In that case, I can understand your frustrations..

No. It has nothing to do with the deaths of any party members. The ending is..basically disconnected from anything that would make sense within the context of the game.

Kinda like.. the ending of 2001 A Space Odyssey?

I hate that show. But my family insists on watching it.

My school won't accept my complaint about teachers not coming to class, absent teachers, and slow teaching. The principal said I need to be one of the Top 5 in my class in order for them to register my complaint.

MY GOD.

Tried SS13 but the lag was terrible on every server and my timezone isn't good anyway.

The ending for the novel makes a lot more sense than the ending for the movie. And it's a lot cooler. Skimming along the surface of a red giant while in a little pod under the control of vast alien intellects FTW.

What the fuck. Something tells me that they're just trying to go LALALALALA CAN'T HEAR YOU about their problems.

MY GOD.

Report to the school board and explicitly tell them your principal doesn't care about the performance of their staff, ignored your complaints and discriminated against you on the basis of your intelligence. Do not underestimate the value of going above someone's head as a way of shaming them.

Alternatively, call your local newspaper and see if they'll write a story. Don't take that shit lying down.

And Tilla, feed me some spoiler'd RAEG. I barely made it halfway through ME1, but I want to know how the train went off the rails.

I watch Glee with the wife. It's not awesome, but it's pretty good. The Glee Project, for the newer cast members to get on the show, was actually better, hah.

Don't really understand the need to hate on it at least - yeah, the dramas often over the top, the music selection could be improved, and the situations they get up often aren't exactly realistic in implementation, but its got its good points, and none of those seem hateworthy to me.

Is it just because it's popular and you can't escape it?

Nenjin is correct. As a side bonus, taking initiative to improve things looks GREAT on college applications, especially if you can put a positive spin on it by impersonally casting the issue as one of obstacles you overcame to improve education for yourself and your classmates in your local school system. People eat that shit up.

But apparently my principal said to my parents that they had already agreed to an agreement and signed it, acknowledging that they only hear from students in the top 5 in their classes. My parents do not remember signing any such agreement, so hopefully after the school holidays we can see if the school can produce the aforementioned papers.

If there is none then we're going to have to take some action.

If we did sign then well I'm shit out of luck.

What's even sillier is that my principal is my Chemistry teacher, and he forgot to come for Chemistry class for 2 days, wasting 3 periods in total.
I went around school to look for him, but he was nowhere to be found, and the receptionist said she'll leave a note, but my principal came in the next day and grumbled about how we didn't remind him.

Why do we even need to remind a teacher that he's TEACHING US. Also this school is very very very very bloody expensive.

But the coordinator of my level was quite sympathetic towards my parents, and actually listened when my mom talked to her, but she can only do so much.

Now I understand why my friend says that my school is a terrible school, should have heeded him earlier, but my school alternatives are very far, whereas this school is in the neighbourhood beside mine.

Also it is important to note that we have not done our assessments yet, as such there is no student as the "top 5", neither are there students in the "bottom 5".

Even if there are such papers, you can still make it a publicity disaster. The school board is elected, so if you can make a big enough stink they might actually pay attention. Particularly if you have to sign those papers in order to attend school, making them effectively mandatory.

Wait....expensive? is this a private school?
