I’m so sarcastic I felt the need to prove it in public…
A couple of weeks ago I was sitting down to write a paper when an email soliciting submissions on faculty appreciation day to one of the school papers (this one used to be undergroundish, but has been lately legitimized)–a $40 prize was offered for the best article submitted. So I wrote the snarkiest, most sarcastic thing I could compose on a moment’s notice and emailed it in, bad grammar and all. My first notice of what came of the article was to find that it had been published, bad grammar and all. And I still haven’t heard anything about that $40. There’s one other article by a student in this issue–we’re probably the only two who submitted–and he probably won the cazash. I think it only fair that, if my bad grammar and half-baked literary abilities are exhibited for the entire world (by which I mean a few people at school) to see, I should get forty bucks out of the deal. Therefore, I think one of you should send me forty dollars. Please.

Do we get to read what you wrote?

Yes, I am expecting a post of it, unedited, with bad grammar.

Today I had to take a survey for my single subject credential program. Because it was online and I felt invincible, I ripped on the program and complained about my socialist teachers and how crappy it all has been. Boy it felt good.

That’s hilarious! I would give you the $40 but I’m broke. I won the forty that one year for my article on dating. I think the money just went back to Fuller for purchasing books so it was a short-lived reward. But it was worth it to have people call me “Dr. Love.” Maybe we should call you “Dr. Sarcastic.” What do you think?

I would love nothing more.
