Really Bad Homework
Yes, I'll write something again soon, but I just couldn't resist posting these examples of really bad homework from American students. Maybe because this is kind of how I was back in school... although I was not quite as brave as some of these students. I'm also pretty sure I wasn't quite as, how do you say, "racially insensitive" as a few of these kids (in fact, it's kinda scary some of the things they write). Anyway, I know these are probably gonna piss off some people, but I don't really care. They're funny. Plus, they give us a pretty good look at why the United States scores so low against other nations when it comes to education. I mean, c'mon, the only two countries that score lower than us anymore are Africa and Mississippi.

Brian Morel needs to run for President. Peter Nguyen should be Secretary of State.

I'm not positive, but I think I just saw the movie Peter wrote.

Hilarious! Why couldn't I have been so creative w/ my homework? It's guaranteed the teachers will ONLY recall thos assignments.

I was assigned a free-form essay in my sophomore English class, in which I chose to describe the reasons which made Ballard High School the worst in the Seattle school district, pointing out the number of gangs, level of violence, and the number of teenage pregnancies in the school. I got a zero on the essay. Three weeks later, some unaffiliated girl got killed by a random bullet in a drive-by on the school grounds due to some altercation between two rival factions. I never got a remedial grade or an apology for that paper. Wow, that's not funny at all.
