Perhaps the English teacher was the drunk?

This. Right there is the arguably worst failing of the school to this former student. We don’t teach that actions have consequences. I’m sure she felt great airing out her grievances, but at some point she is applying for a job. This is easily found on the internet. I can’t think of a boss that wants to deal with

Dammit, Barry!
Barry: What? It wasn’t me this time!  Why not Dammit, Nora!
You got knocked Iris up..., with HER!

Don’t lose too much sleep, it will be very quick flash, then it’ll be gone.

You’re right.  Disagreeing with the truth is pointless.  I’m sorry you seem to be ignorant of politics, history, and whatever else, but if you believe that President Trump isn’t the direct result of the presidency of Obama and the prospect of a Hillary Clinton presidency, that’s just a little sad.

Okay.  You just keep being you, sweetie, insulting people with whom you disagree.  It says more about you than it does about anybody else.

I tell the truth, you hurl insults.  Please, tell me again how intelligent you are.  I’m sorry that you can’t handle reality without getting so hysterical.

Coming from someone as highly intelligent as you, that's irrelevant.

Wow!  You know NOTHING of what made 2016 happen exactly as it did.

Asshole does not equal inaccurate. I’ll cop to being an asshole, are you going to cop to the fact that I’m also correct about Obama and Clinton?

One of those assholes who knows history and politics?  One of those assholes who pays attention to the world around him?  Yes, I’m one of THOSE assholes. Nice to meet you!

Thanks for reminding me.  I had temporarily forgotten that we aren’t allowed to have a sense of humor anymore.  You want to talk about actual fuckwits who got Trump elected, let me give you a couple names.  Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton.  And by extension, their supporters.  Roma Downey did nothing compared to these

It wouldn’t matter who she did that to, she’d forever be America’s Sweetheart.

Welcome to life as a Conservative in California.

I’m also a teacher. There is no world in which this kind of thing is acceptable. Teachers should never subject their students to mocking from the public. Teachers should have a relationship of trust and security with their students. I’m not saying a teacher could never make a joke, but one with the student, not about

I caught it.

I was hoping an authorized representative from the Ministry of Cultural Offense would show up here. I was getting a little worried it hadn’t happened yet.

I only regret that I have but one star for this comment.

Or celebrate by telling someone who wants to be the celebration police ‘a la chingada, guey!’

I find a “Let’s work it out together” approach almost always provides better results than, “Come back when you’ve done your research”, especially when this isn’t an assignment, but a person just trying to get a feel for how the wind is blowing around here.
