RANTS OF A TEENAGE MADWOMAN

Why do we go to school?

TO ALL THE PEOPLE OUT THERE....

......WHO JUST NEEDS TO KNOW WHY WE NEED TO GO TO SCHOOL.

HERE ARE THE REASONS

*from the net

(This should motivate us guys. ;) )

Reason #1: Higher Earning Potential

Reason #2: Lower Risk of Unemployment

Reason #3: More Potential Career Opportunities

Reason #4: Better Outlook on Life

Reason #5: Better Role Model for Children

Reason #6: More Likely to Have Health Insurance

WOW RIGHT? :DD

But yeah... there were some silly reasons as well; (*still from the net)

^^ School will make you enjoy your job one day, because you'll be able to look back and say "at least I get paid for this crap.

^^ School will teach you how to present yourself like an intelligent, educated individual when you post things on the internet.

Like this fine example, actually posted in the Ramblings section:

"LISTEN PPL I GOE 2 SKOOL I GET EDACATUN I LERN THINGZ N THEIR AINT NUTTIN RONG WIT GOEN 2 SKOOL. I GO 2 SKOOL DEN 2 COLLEGE TO GET GR8 JOB MAYBE EVEN BECOME GOOD LAWYER. SO U GUISE NEED 2 QUIT TRYIN 2 GET PPL TO STAY OUT OF SKOOL. SKOOL IS KEWL PPLZ." (LOL)

^^ School will also teach you where the caps lock key is on your keyboard - very important information that you can't get anywhere else.

^^ Finishing school is the only way any college or university will ever let you in. The only things they care about are the grades you got for your last year of high school. That's all that matters. What did you say? "So all these projects and tests I did over the past 11 years were worthless?"

Don't be silly, you needed to do all that stuff to pass your previous years with high marks to make your parents happy enough to keep on feeding you so that you'll live long enough to finish high school!

^^ School will teach you how to contribute to society. We all want to contribute to this wonderful world we live in, right?

The best way to do that is to get a job and make money and buy stuff, because it's good for the economy. What's good for the economy is good for everyone! Nevermind that nobody really knows exactly how the economy works. That's completely irrelevant. It's still good. Because I said so.

^^ School will make sure you turn into a decent, civilized human being. This is done by punishing you whenever you do evil things like run in the hallways or give a teacher your honest opinion. No civilized human being EVER gives anyone their honest opinions on anything, so it's for the best that you get rid of yours as soon as possible. You wouldn't want people looking at you funny every time you speak, would you?

^^ Without school, we would have no technology. Edison would never have invented electricity, the Egyptians wouldn't have known how to build the pyramids, and the cavemen would never have discovered fire!

 OKAY. I'M MOTIVATED ALREADY.

TIME TO GO TO SCHOOL TOMORROW. (still ugh)
