can I have an A because I do, in fact, know the information, and I showed up every day, and participated, plus, I am pretty damn cool.
"Heh heh heh....Heh. No. Also I'm docking you a letter grade for being an idiot, and making it a minus because you don't know what 'cool' is. Grotesque entitlement is not cool. Seriously. Not."
brenda, I recommend going old school and shouting, "Christ's Wounds!" Or maybe, "By the gleaming white eye sockets of Samson." Or borrowing from Ron Weasley, "Merlin's saggy left nutsack!"
kumquat is a good one, I might try to use that
I am just sometimes still surprised at random acts of misogyny or sexism.
I feel like, "oh, wait, so in your head, I'm lesser in multiple ways because I have a vag."
And then they bring up some caveman shit like it's just evolution and not really my fault, and I'll never be equal because I can't write my name in the snow. Then come the stats about how men run all the fortune 500s and have made all the important historical contributions to humanity, but really, it's not my fault because I'm built for baby-having.
And I always want to get on a plane, go to England, get Margaret Thatcher, and have her kick the shit of the dude while screaming, "who's the alpha male now, bitch?"
Maybe we can march them off to rocket ships to colonize Mars?
Like the C.M. Kornbluth story?

You could write it on his skin with an X-acto.
Brenda, that is some crazy shit. Christ. But I love the suggestions here!
Bon, I kinda heart that email. "what classes are you teaching next semester? If you give me an A I will take them and rate you highly"
Y'all are making me laugh out loud! Kumquat is one of my favorite words, I think it'd be a great swear word! Jellyfuck and Hey Zeus Crisco are also excellent. I'm also agreeing on trying not to say things like "son of a bitch" and "bastard". Being a bitch isn't always so bad, and let's not bring their parents into it!
Just don't start with one and switch to the other midword, brenda. I doubt she'd appreciate Jesusfucker either.
Like the C.M. Kornbluth story?
That was the reference. Not that that that story is not based on really problematic biological determinism, but an attempt at a humorously supportive reply.
Hey Zeus Crisco is my new favorite swear.
I think classic swearing should be allowed for anyone working at a computer. That's why they call it the cursor..
