First of I would like to ask a question for those who are still attending school. Does anyone here absoloutly despise most of their peers?! I can't believe some of these guys! I'm not trying to be a goody goody or anything , but for crying out loud , pull your act together!! They have messed everything up for the ones who choose to do the right thing! We were going to go on a field trip to an amusment park in a big town and set us loose for 4 hours , but since our priniciple and teachers can't trust us , we're not going!! He says that are group has been the absoloute WORST he has ever seen! And he's not going to take anymore of it.He had to call a special meeting today to tell us this.We have this thing called "Late Lunch" at our school where if you act bad you have to eat your lunch with the school discipline dude Mr. Lawrence.Once you finish you have to rigth sentences,do work,etc;etc;. At the end of the day the school makes a list of all those who had late lunch that day and post it in the cafeteria and just for yesterday THEY RAN OUT OF ROOM FOR SIXTH GRADERS!!!! Are my peers doing this on purpose , or are they just plain STUPID!!?! Do these people have ANY human decency? Most of them just make noises,disrupt class,get in trouble,back talk,make fun of other,act stupid..The list could go on and on! The teacher have told them countless times to stop acting up and act like mature sixth grader , but do they ever listen?NO!!!!! They never listen and never behave! There is barely a hand full of students that do the right thing.One person had "Late lunch" 47 times! That was just wrong! Some people never turn in there work , don't go to late lunch , don't go to ZAP(Zeros Ar'nt Permitted), and don't do what they are supposed to do! So I guess this is my daily , annoyed , wanting to maul somone rant....Anyone else know what I mean?

Sounds familiar. All through school I noticed that. Worrying thing is, I still notice it among some people that really should know better.

Fortunately such people are really in the minority, although they effect everyone. All that you can do is ignore the prats as best you can.

Only thing that would even have a chance of making them change would be an educational system that could deal out serious consequences. But thats never going to happen, is it?

Yes, SomeGuy, thanks to the advaces of modern psychiarty. we have a name for people like that. It is "losers." Don't worry, when you go to college, it will get abruptly, and permanently, better.

Question Mark

Yea, SomeGuy, in a few years you'll have the distinct pleasure of answering one of your "peers" with "Yes, I'd like fries with that, and Supersize please ...."

I could not have put it better [img]smile.gif[/img] That is very correct.

But don't get on their wrong side, because you don't want them to spit on your burgers.

Teenage years aren't so bad. Having it as a profession is.

Hehe, I remember a guy being bullied of his school by the teachers because they didn't like him, because he asked to many questions

In most cases I agree with you. But some people at university are just as bad. I did a maths course in first year, multi-variable calculus and differential equations - ie not a class for people braindead morons a la Someguy's class. They talked, and loudly, the absolute through every class, the entire semester. One time they thought it would be hysterical to push all the blackboards up to the top so the lecturer had to get the pole thingy to get them down. Juvenile? Just slightly [img]graemlins/idontagreeatall.gif[/img]

It's hard, Someguy, I know. The worst thing is when the teachers punish everyone because of the behaviour of a few - so unfair! And worse because of the whole stupid solidarity thing, 'dobbing' on the dickheads doesn't make you any friends, and likely loses you some from people who want to be cool. Dunno what to tell you! Hang in there [img]smile.gif[/img]
