seriously, what a couple of ungrateful shitheads. I hope they miss their next few flights because they can't effectively communicate and nobody lifts a finger to help them.

4/12/2014 12:11:25 PM

When I first read that note, I thought, "Shit I'd be pissed too..." But then after the explanation of the old definition of "dumb," I realize that it was all a misunderstanding. Knowing this, I see no reason why these people are being so upset over it. It's a misunderstanding of an outdated term. Get over it. Some people.

fuck that noise. if the purpose of high school is to prepare a kid for entering the workforce or pursuing higher education, how would this help them?

5/4/2014 9:15:40 PM

It doesn't.


Fucking people can't take responsibility for their work. If you fail, you shouldn't get a pass and a pat on the back that says "try harder next time."

We need productivity. All we are doing is stunting the future growth of this nation. We are crippling it. Our kids are weak because we don't push them to be strong. We don't train them with hard work, discipline, morals, values, or principles. We instead demoralize every single one of them with "participation awards" and handouts. What they learn from this is that someone will always take care of them when they don't produce or fuck up. There's no incentive to work hard here. Failing isn't so bad.

It doesn't help that the kids growing up today are sucked in by all the social media either. We need more tough love in this fucking country.

I think Case should also discontinue their entomology week thing that they do.

It is very offensive to insects.

insects arent people, stupid

they cant be offended

mexicans can

A few people making it shitty for everybody else, taking the fun out of any holiday.

We can't celebrate Christmas for what it is because atheists have a stick up their ass about it.
We can't celebrate Halloween because Christians have a stick up their ass about it.
Now any ethnic holiday is off the table. God forbid we have fun with a stereotype.

And wtf does it matter that they serve meat everyday? If you don't like it, go to one of your subways that only serve halal dishes. I'm sure there coming here soon enough.

5/5/2014 11:24:54 PM

The sombreros and moustaches are obviously offensive and stupid. Why would they ever think that was okay?

You gotta double layer your jokes, guys. You can make a joke with stereotypes as long as the real joke is that you and anybody laughing are stupid for thinking it's funny. Unless it is dedicated to comedy, no official event or organization should attempt this.
