FUCKING STUPID HOMEWORK
Jan. 15th, 2004 03:12 pmIt has begun.
We are computer geeks here, and we do stuff literally and precisely. I just edited the Little Fayoumis's homework for the first time.
Instructions:
Trouble: the word "fast".
In context, it is clear to an adult who can see the pattern that it is a "how things look" word. It was so very not clear to Little Fayoumis.
Black marker time. Cross out "how things look", write in "descriptive words". Refrain from calling homework designers "morons". Also refrain from explaining to Little Fayoumis about the action of fasting, even though the homework designers are morons and/or culturally unaware.
By the fourth grade or earlier,
