Why Won't They Just Do It My Way?

I am returning this otherwise good typing paper to you because someone has printed gibberish all over it and put your name at the top.
-English Professor, Ohio University

Have you ever written a paper and then really, really, really wished you could present it instead of just turn it in, so the teacher could hear it just as you were thinking it? Because obviously they're going to read it wrong, you just know it.

Well, Global midterm? Yeah. Braye is going to read this all not as I say it in my head, and then he is going to think it is ridiculous. And I think they frown upon breaking into a teacher's office while they're grading papers solely to read yours aloud with hand gestures. Hm.

Ok, that's all. Pardon the grumpiness.
