At my new school, they neglected to inform me of two summer assignments the first of which was simple but for AP us history it’s a shit-load of work. I have to read and outline 120 pages of history textbook and answer countless questions and define countless key terms. Then I have to read and review 80 some pages of “key sources”. While the rest of the world had the entire summer to do this, I have four or five days. GOD DAMNIT
But in reading I encountered this precious jewel
“The poor but sturdy inhabitants, regarded as riffraff by their snobbish neighbors, earned a reputation for being irreligious and hospitable to pirates.”
