So much crazy.

The "invented spelling" approach has been used for at least 20 years now, and we haven't raised a generation of lolcats, so it must be working ok.

O noes, students are learning history is more than a bunch of random dates to memorize!!

What the fuck is "death ed"? Now you're just pulling shit out of your ass.

Psychiatry is evil. Yeah, never heard that one before. Are we channeling Xenu now?

Oh fuck me, I can't watch any more of this.

In regards to "Death Ed" (which I assume is talking about "Sex Ed")

It's strange how we're such a hypersexualized country that also really hates sex.

Gee, I wonder if there's a connection there 9_9
Mockery of ideas you don't comprehend or understand is the surest mark of unintelligence.

Even the worst union is better than the best Walmart.

We can love sex and nudity and all sorts of horny luv luv things like that... but we must remain mindful to self-flagellate afterwards.  It's what all 'decent' people do.

The places that search for sex most on the Internet are some of the most conservative places.

I kind of want to do a study of how people rate their sex lives and their conservatism about sex. Like, do sex positive people have better sex? Are they better informed? Things like that.
