Good and Bad Stuff from school . . .
So when I got home from school, there was a letter waiting for me. Apparently, I'm now on the National Dean's List.
Yay for me!
Now for the bad. Well, maybe bad isn't the word. Feel free to decide for yourself.
There's this girl in both of my school classes. Nice enough, given the contact I've had with her. I know I'm really *really* bad at recognizing these sort of things, but I think she has been flirting with me a bit. Not that it matters, anymore. She's got this bumper sticker on her car 'annoy a liberal: work hard and be happy'. That told me a bit about her political leanings, but I didn't realize she was so 'vehement' about them.
In religions class, the teacher made some passing statement about God not being man and he voiced some examples. Included was George W. Bush. Can't recall the whole thing, but he was just making a point. I, being my usual smartass self, just had to throw out a oneliner.
'yeah, that whole choking on a pretzel thing kinda killed any chance at divinity he had.'
I'll admit, not my funniest joke, but it was just a side comment.
Anyway, this girl, who I feel kind of bad cause I don't know her name, whirls around and throws the stink eye at me for a good 2 minutes. The teacher calls a break soon after and, since I really need to use the bathroom, I hit the door fast. Halfway down the ramp, I hear her yelling at me. 'Hey! Did you make a joke about choking on a pretzel?!'
Uh, yeah.
'Have you ever choked before?!'
Yeah.
'Then you know how easy it is.'
I'll stop with the direct quotes here, suffice it to say, she proceeded to try and jump my shit over my joke. I let her go for a second, then cut her off.
'Look, you want to get pissed with me, fine. I've done a lot of shit worth getting mad about. This isn't it. It's a joke, a bad one.'
With that, I and this other gentlemen walked off, throwing french jokes at each other down the hall.
*insert rolling eyes here*
I am fairly certain I haven't heard the end of this. Back in class, James and I were asked what was going on by the girls next to us. We told them and they laughed. Seems this other girl is referred to as a 'man beast' cause she 'looks like a man and acts like a bitch'.
We'll see what she does/says, if anything, come philosophy. I'm fully prepared to jump shit myself if this comes up again. I know I'm an asshole and there's a lot of shit to be pissed at me about, but a side joke in class? Please. Grow the fuck up.
Yay for me!
