We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Thanks for letting me vent, guys. I was in a serious rage state this afternoon. Not a great place for me to be, as I can get downright nasty in that state. I had to high-tail it outta school ASAP.

I will be good-teacher Erin and look for Proactive!Solutions!to!My!Classroom!Management!Issues! yayhappySPARKLE kidzrfun!

But right now, I need to stew in my own quinine-bitter juices of unleashed vengeful rage.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

What parent raises their children to think that this is appropriate?

Yeah, I don't know if you do everything your parents would deem appropriate. I know I don't.

Can't you just task them with humiliating in-class exercises?

"We're going to re-enact scenes from literature. You'll be doing Gargantua and Pantagruel and this feather duster is your goose..."

Our wings are not tired.

{{Erin}} I hope you find an effective method. I seriously don't know how teachers do it. Ya want I should send you the Bobby duct taped pictures to use as threats?

25 in this class. Mixed: sophomores thru seniors. And About 3/4 of the class are good, but the others are rude, clueless, little wonky BEASTS.

However..it is my Hell class, and most of my other classes are pretty good.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Q: Why do kids have SO MUCH CRAP???

A: Because grandparents see their grandchildren as forms of revenge.

Oh, I know. But I'm talking basic courtesies. This is malevolent not-giving-rat's-ass...and I know KNOW! that some of these kids will be all startled when they see their grades.

And then they will whine for extra credit. BWAAHAHAHAHAHA!

"Fine. I hereby credit you with assholery. Wear it, bitch."

“Not dead yet!”

I hereby credit you with assholery. Wear it, bitch.

I may have this silkscreened onto a t-shirt and wear it at my next writer's conference.

Not that the individuals at whom it would be directed would ever get it, but still...

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

This is malevolent not-giving-rat's-ass...

This. So very much this. These words came out of my mouth today, "We are so not doing this this year. You will turn your attitude around by Friday, or Friday afternoon I will be making phone calls home. If that doesn't change it, you will, in all likelihood, fail this class. Got it?"

Unfortunately, 2 of them looked okay with the failing plan.
