Slept in. Almost missed my bus.
Got into argument during breakfast.
Acquaintance: "Well look, here comes the communist!"
Me: "What do you have against healthcare?"
A: "It breaks the 10th amendment!"
M: "How so?"
A: "It just does!"
M: "Do you even know what the 10th amendment is?"
A: *has to look it up*
M: "See?"
A: "Well it's SOCIALIST and socialism leads to communism!"
M: "Police, firefighters, and roads are all socialist programs."
A: "Are not!"
M: "Yes they are! Do you even know what socialism is?!"
A: "Yes!"
M: "Yeah. Police. That's what socialism is."
A: "The police aren't communist! There are Mormons and Christians in the police!"
M: *snapping* "Are you implying I must be a communist because I'm Jewish?"
A: "Well, no, but..."
Bell rang. I was about to kill him.
Of course, this guy is a dick anyway. He once took an eraser and scrubbed off most the ink from Obama's face in the paper and said "Look guys, now he's white like he should be!"
Its too bad he still sits with us. He used to not be an asshole.
Later texted conversation with brother about healthcare. I've come to the conclusion that there needed to be some, but not as much health insurance reform. The biggest reform needs to be in the health care industry itself. Seriously, it's about 50 dollars tops to make an insulin pump. It is $10,000 to buy one.
Put up GSA posters during lunch. Putting them up always terrifies me like you wouldn't believe. Decided to put "Smile you're on camera!" notes behind them all.
Failed two tests after lunch. English was unfair, they were all VERY subjective questions. I don't even know what went wrong on the human anat/phys one. I still feel like crap for it too. *has never failed a test before*
Now for winnage. Those posters I hung? Saw one of them, a bit crumpled, put in a slightly different spot, but still put back up. It worked! \o/
Idiot ripped out my insulin pump. Had to convince a friend on the bus to help me reinsert it.
Stepdad home when I got home. Unfortunately. Was hungry but didn't want to eat an afterschool snack, don't want to eat in front of him. He has the habit of implying I eat too much/am fat if I eat outside of a meal.
Grandma invited us for dinner. Had amazing fingersteaks. Made up for hungry.
