RANDOM RANTS XXV: Put a Smile On

[aimeeandbeatles]

Online Translators are horrible. You'll generally get the jist of the message translated, it just won't be worded in a way that makes the slightest bit of sense in the language you translate it to.

I know. Ive actually considered learning a few languages to try and translate these articles... Im no good at them though.

I suck at scoring one standard deviation higher than my peers in non-trivially-easy classes

Felt like crying when I didn't understand today's Alg II lesson...

Normally I am uber at math.

Learn them soon, the younger you are, the easier languages are to learn.

If thats true, why did I get kicked out of French class when I was 9? Maybe its just the way they tried to do it though. I dunno.

Did you specifically do something really bad? Expelling you from a class at that age isn't nice.

I was just too dumb to get it.

 

[W|M]

I doubt your dumber than some of the people in my old Spanish class.

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

Yeah. But still online translators suck. One interview I translated one of the questions came out rendered as: five favorite "want to take on a desert island" CD, please include the.

There are no more interesting thread ideas here anymore, just the same stuff i have seen posted for the 10th time over the years.

It's always been like that. The challenge is to gain postcount continue to have a fun time within the constraints of those same old same old stupid topics.

Be the change you want to see.

That a stupid quote from a stupid person (Gandhi) and you should feel bad about yourself for using it. That is my rant

Also it's really hot in here and the fools running housing have turned on the heat!

How can you say this when Fascism Comes To Brazil?

 

[Joecoolyo]

GAH!!!

Being a history buff, hearing people talk about history, and mess up the facts really gets to me. Today, my Spanish teacher decides to talk about Mexico, and its indigenous population. She, for some strange reason, thinks the Spanish, when they landed, didn't harm the natives, and the only reason they died in droves was because of the disease the Spanish brought. AND THEN she goes on to talk about how the U.S. treated the Native American's horribly and committed genocide with the trail of tears.

GAH! Things like this just really get to me. Especially the combining of getting history wrong and anti-American sentiment.

If only I wasn't such a reserved person I could have set her straight, but no, I just can't open my mouth in class

Did you need to, or are you a perfectionist?

I wanted to get a better score naturally; I think I'm below 50th percentile at my school (2050)

 

[Karalysia]

I got a 2000 which I thought was pretty good, anyway I'm still waiting for my LSAT score which I'm hoping/dreading comes out tomorrow.
