That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I thought it was God Save the Queen.

I think that's My Country Tis of Thee

Shit's all sorts of different now.

My Country Tis of Thee is the same as God Save the Queen.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Yeah, I edited, but not quickly enough for my super-speedy Buffistae!

I'm pretty sure you only think that because you're a socialist.

Yeah, I'm a socialist capitalist.

I currently teach middle school, but when I was at a HS 4 years ago, we said it there, too.

Speaking of teaching...gotta go do that now!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I went to high school in the People's Republic of Cambridge, so there was no pledging allegiance to anything.

You weren't the only one to go there.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I wasn't even required to stand. I don't recall anyone, teachers or students, having an issue. I feel like even saying, "Ok, you don't have to say it, but you will stand with everyone else," is still...I don't know.

As I recall we did the pledge only when either we were in the same classroom all day, or had a morning assembly. That ceased to be the case in middle school (or junior high as they called it there) and high school.

I don't know if they do the pledge at the kid's schools, probably. On a tangent, when I've seen the middle school and high school here it feels so strange to me to have everything in one building. My middle school had 4-5 buildings and my high school had, I think, 9 buildings and a few trailers for overflow. It feels weird to walk into a high school where everything is all under a single roof.
