Back as far as I could remember I have hated math. More then a few minutes into the lesson and I just could.not.get.it. Nothing. I hated even more to have to go home to my dad and have him
Anything more then adding, subtracting, multiplying, division and fractions was just to much for me. I didn't get it. I didn't want to get it.
I must say the only break I did get was when we would do measuring and shapes. That was cool, I was good at it. (and thank god, because in arts and crafts you do ALOT of measuring)
So to get back at the evil bastard that invented Gee-I'm-a-tree, Algebra, I hated the missing letter math, the math where over half the damn equation was missing and you had to fill it in. Because in all my jobs as a cashier, banker, teller, cook, kennel cleaner, and SAHM I have yet to be missing out because of my lack of math knowledge.
(Sure I'm not a doctor, or a lawyer, or even a NASAteer, but please tell me why, oh why do I need math outside of the basics? Because one day I am sure to be at the grocery store and say damn, I can't figure out the root of pie, and the square of this box of mac and cheese? Riiight)
Anywho, back to the evil plan.
And it was a good one.
No one ever suspected it was me.
I never had to pay more for my books...
I erased the page numbers.
Not all of them. Bunches. In a row, so lets say you open a book. The pages are numbered... but! maybe pages 23-38 are gone... then 82-86 are gone... when I was really pissed I would just erase the problems.
Not a good kid at all. I am sure some kid got in trouble because he SWORE the math problem was 12x2 and not 12x12, or maybe I just erased parts of the word problem... OH those word problems!!
Not the other subjects though. I didn't mind history, or spelling (even though I can't spell and my grammar blows) not even religion. It was all good. But not. the. math.
How bout you? Anything evil in school?
