You guys are dumb.  Group: Member Posts: 1,252 Joined: Jun 2004 Member No: 25,094  |
How can someone not pass highschool? I know two people who dropped out, and I have to wonder how dumb you have to be not to be able to pass H.S. They make it so you can graduate, even if you're a total buffoon. For example, the normal math curriculum includes : Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and Calculus, stupid people are allowed to take "Basic Math" and "Math for living" classes where the only requirment is that you can do basic arithmetic. I can only imagine what goes through an employer's head when they see that someone is a highschool dropout--its basically a sign that reads "I'm too stupid to live".
THIS IS REGARDING IN TODAYS WORLD AND WHERE EDUCATION IS FREE |

QUOTE(th5418 @ Aug 15 2004, 1:57 PM) Addiction problems? Hence, drug addict? Yes, you already are too stupid to live if you are doing drugs. Why the hell are you smoking and doing heroin or whatever. You're going to end up dead, and dead. Distractions from school? Whats distracting you? Girls? Guys? Yes, great reason for you to drop out. Family problems eh. Sure, I'll leave in one or two excpetions. Like if their mom has cancer and you are her only family. Friend problems. How exactly will your friend have you drop out. Back up some statements please. Friends problem: EXAMPLE- you and your friends don't get along because she took your boyfriend [and you've been best friends since middle school]. The more you think about this the more angrier you get. You can't focus in school and you start failing. At this piont your friend is still ignoring you. You are very frustrated and start drinking. Soon enough you get addicted to the alcohol and drink it everyday. The daily drinks are giving you a harder time concentration wtih school work. Not to mention the cost of the drinks are shrinking the your bank account balance. A couple months pass...you are broke and you're classes are F- ...now you don't even have enough money to buy lunch. Your parents can't help at all because they have to pay the insurance, car, mortage, etc. What are you gonna do? Drop Out. |
