To quote my friend:
"{My last name}, I watched an episode of Futurama on CC; and it fucking sucked ass. Watch the show Good Vibes, that's funny shit. But not your gay crap."
Good Vibes, is in fact a terrible show. I'm actually a bit embarrassed to admit I like it because I hate being judged. "Oh, he likes that gay show Futurama." "Don't talk to him, he thinks Futurama is funny." "His favorite show is Futurama, what a loser."
Yeah...
The school system is in general a screwed up place. We send our kids off to be in the company of other kids all day, and under the supervision of authority figures who have no authority because we've stripped it from them.
Then again, immature behavior is what to expect from immature people (children). While looking down on them because they know how to be better than that but choose not to be.
