I need to rant. Now.

And I understand that some of you may be triggered on the small, teeny tiny thing I'm going rant about. So if you give no shits about school and tests, get out. Good? Good. Firstly, let me just say that I was mostly okay with the education system I've gone through from 2005 to now. Now, my hope for my school grades is at an all-time low in quite a while. "But Venom, what kind of BS have you been through that only [i][b]now[/b][/i] pisses you off?" Well, I'm glad you asked, dear reader. My problem is, as stated above, with tests. "But Venom, what about the tests, you fuсk?" [b][i]Tests that are [u]fuсking homework.[/u][/i] [/b]More commonly known as [b][i][u]projects[/u][/i][/b]. About subjects I bet [b][i][u]nobody[/u][/i][/b] gives two shits about, such as certain religions, sciences, etc. And I've been patient with my teachers, even through some of the [b][i]absolutely BS times[/i][/b], but this has gone too far. I don't mind tests, but when you merge my [b][i]archnemesis that is homework[/i][/b] into the [b][i]test[/i][/b] category, all Hell breaks loose. It was this special category of assignments that nearly devastated my grades several years ago. "But Venom, perhaps the subject your project's about is important." Really? Tell me that you know what Transcendentalism even is without looking it up, who founded it, and that it still bears relevance in the modern world. Anybody? No? Then don't even try arguing that point. "But Venom, you're just being a bitch about doing homework. We all have to do it, like it or not." I do homework. But this damn project, and others like it, just waste even more of my time, beating the living shit out of a horse that's been dead since the Civil War (as Transcendentalism was born in American Romanticism, active before the War). And let's be honest: Wouldn't you be upfront with your boss if you were super pissed about it, too? "But Venom, we don't give a shit about your feelings." I'm posting this to get it out of my system safely, not for your damn opinions on my life because I'm a proclaimed attention-seeking whore. So please, with all this being said, discuss what you want about this. TL;DR: I'm pissed about doing a project in my own time about a subject that I won't even give two shits about outside of school.

  • We only made projects on stuff that was [b][i]at least semi relevant[/i][/b] (to the current subject)[b][i].[/i][/b] [b][i][u]At least.[/u][/i][/b] I'd say it's fine if it was relevant to... anything. But now that you have my attention on the subject... [spoiler]what is that anyway?[/spoiler]
