My mom's a real jerk sometimes. Not just to me, but to my FRIENDS. That's just jacked up. I deal with all of her idiotic friends that butt in on our Thanksgiving. Everytime I ask her to give someone else a ride, her first response is "NO." Like "NO!!!" Like "NO WHAT THE HELL SHUT UP WHY YOU WASTE GAS MONEY?!" It's silly. People always give me rides everywhere. I've been asked for rides for the majority of high school, for Christ's sake! And SHE complains about giving other people rides like once every two months? That's like complaining about there not being any ketchup when there's a bottle labeled "tomato sauce" on the table.
Except today I busted out the "Sarah's dad picked me up and took me to get a new bike when mine got crushed under the evil force of a giant black SUV." That shut her right up.
Hypocrites in general are ridiculous. And I don't mean hypocrites that know they're hypocrites and feel bad, because that makes them a lot less of a hypocrite. I mean hypocrites that do it and don't give a damn.
Peterson, for instance, is probably a blazing hypocrite. I bet she's happy in her quaint little office with her personal refridgerator snacking on celery sticks or Nutter Butters or whatever it is that people snack on these days. I bet she's happy when the other staff members present a cake to her on her birthday. It's not WE that matter to her, but how the school looks. The district must love a principal who enforces law in an otherwise liberal campus. It's not like we were engulfed in the chaos of a 16th century fiefdom. Student and administration conflicts were at an all-time low on all fronts, and the only overwhelming problem we had was a bunch of seagulls.
Don't you just hate people who think they're solving a problem when they're actually causing or furthering it? Then you tell them that they're making it worse, and they call you a rebel or naive or immature or whatever it is that we young'uns get called these days. There are always ways to resolve this issue. Let's review the facts:
1) Spread Alka Seltzer pills all over campus. Seagulls will be exploding in midair in no time and will be swept away in the winter rains. Easy as that. Okay, maybe a little gory... But fun, nonetheless.
2) Get clubs to clean up the campus. ASB seems to have no problem getting clubs to go to football games using club points. So why not campus cleaning? Key Club does it. Why can't everyone else? It's not that hard. I've done it.
3) Have SIAs do their jobs. This applies to the hall pass thing, too. If SIAs WATCHED people leave their trash on tables and all over campus, you'd think that they'd stop them or tell them to pick it the heck up. But no. They sit in their golf carts or in their office doing... nothing. Looking vigilant but in fact thinking about the programs they should watch when they go home. If you're going to hire new SIAs, you should probably use them. Get your money's worth.
4) If someone throws a cake and someone uninvolved gets owned, get the cake-thrower in trouble. Not us. If all isolated events were applied to an entire population, then America would live in holding cells wearing uniforms and having daily announcements from Our Great Leader telling us to Obey, obey, we must obey. We'd all be serial killers, rapists, burglars, larsons, felons, you get the picture. So apparently here we're all troublemakers, up-to-no-good, sinners, rebels, all that jazz. Well, I'll tell you what admin is. Unjust, unfair, overreacting, overreaching, and silly.
Positively silly.
Innocent until proven guilty, and not all of us are guilty. Punish those who have done wrong, and let those who have done naught be.
