I doubt there are regular b0ggers out there, but this is pretty hilarious.

Things must be bad in those community colleges. Actually, it might be a H.S. student. I guess he dosen't care if he passes. Pretty funny stuff. I wish I knew an english teacher that would appreciate it in the sense of comedy that it is. I doubt that anyone else has ever called Oedipus a douche bag in the history of greek tragedy. Maybe in the Greek language

Oh my god. I laughed out loud. I rolled on the floor and laughed my ass off.

Be right back.

My teachers were pretty cool, although I don't know if that would fly. In my animal behavior class, as story I've probably already posted on here, our big thesis project was on interpersonal distance. So while most people did the stand-in-the-bookstore experiment wherein they wanted to see how close they could stand to a guy, a woman, a pregnant woman, being either a woman or man standing there, I did mine about mosh pits and whether or not interpersonal distance had anything to do with whether or not a pit would break out right where you were standing.

I had a heavy metal poster tacked up on the board. Some guy in the class asked me who I had seen (Pantera, Zombie, Dream Theater, Manson, a few others) and was like cool, I was at that one too, did you buy the T-shirt? But I really did measure floor space and distance between bodies and all that shit. Got an A- or B+, something like that, A overall in the class, and that professor loved me. I think that guy also liked me because I kicked him off of his own phone, and for some reason he liked chicks with balls, and he basically told my mother to go to hell for me, and he was enough of an expert in his field (genetics) that he goes to famous trials and was a material contributor/witness in the OJ trial, so there's that.

I can see the teacher in that story being anal, but, if I was a teacher with a sense of humor, I'd give that a barely passing grade, ignore all the misspellings, say something like 'page too big' too, and laugh. I wouldn't have subtracted for swearing, tho, unless it was in the code of conduct, so there might have been a CYA thing going on there.

I'd probably have put something in there like "Do you KNOW Dre was a big balla? References?"

You all understand that the grading was fake, right? The people in the forums didn't seem to understand it, but I knew my friends at JC BBS would get it.

Alas, another dream shot to shit.

The comments seemed to suggest that it was such, but I never believe anyone on the internet.

The grading wasn't at all why it was funny. That's why it must be real.

Great use of the D-. Having achieved many of them in whole classes, I always like to see it dusted off and given a chance to say hello to the world.

Never managed the best grade on the scale - D+ - though. Man, what I would have done for a Trophy D+.

(System Software and Physics III were the two that immediately came to mind for D-, by the by.)

Okay, what the fuck is going on. This is the exact quote that the user pandora hit us with.

Well, the quote machine didn't like that.

On the other hand, babelfish.altavista.com says that the phrase is Greek for "dictionary did not find no word"

Geez, it's really not that important. being Greek, it could mean a couple different things. I thought it would be mildly amusing to use Greek characters as curse words instead of the usual #!@*&!!! stuff. We all knew that tho. I tried a couple of Greek-English translators and none of them could come up with anything. A google search has the phrase but since the whole page is Greek....
