    Can't we have Rock 'n' Roll High School already? I mean, the Ramones are almost all dead.

    OMG! The poor, delicate fleurs will have to take (shudder) STANDARDIZED TESTS in those horrible hell-holes they call Steiner and Dalton and RCS, which will crush their self-esteem unless the tutors can whip them into shape between yoga and tennis and ballet and whatever-the-fuck-else richies do . . .

    Good heavens! This means little Madison is just going to have to attend... I can barely bring myself to say it: Dalton. Lord knows how she'll survive twelve years without being constantly nurtured, encouraged and otherwise affirmed, but if she does it should make for great "See the hardship I overcame?!" college application essay material.

    Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.

    /@Iceland_Spar: Damn. I (unfortunately) go there and it couldn't be more intellectually deadening. I had to take a class about what not to call various minority groups! My "Professional Development" course (fourth years only) taught me how to tell which fork is which during a "business lunch"! I can't wait to graduate and be mediocre in every way.

    This feels bad and wrong on so many levels. Here's another lesson plan for them to consider: "For popular culture classes, students may be assigned to ride the subways in order to better observe the poors in their natural environment. They may also be encouraged, for extra credit, to actually converse with a poor. On occasion, poors may be invited into the classroom (or salon), for spirited intellectual interaction with the students and faculty, but only in closely supervised group settings."

    @FlipTurn: LMAO. For social studies, some students may participate in after-school activities that involve an authority figure

    requesting the students complete some basic tasks in exchange for monetary compensation. Optimally, they would learn how to prepare popular culinary items like a beef sandwich commonly known as a "hamburger".

    The late start things is actually sound physiology. Research has confirmed suspicions that teens' circadian rhythms are different than children's and adult's.


    Otherwise this sounds like a self-congratulating cluster, unless they happen to need a poet or something . . .
