Further exploration of the realm of idiocy...

Posted by Dr_Eechmen on Aug. 29, 2006, 9:44 p.m.

To follow up my last GM-Related moron rant, Here's one from school… It isn't exactly what happend… but you'll get my point. This is quite long… bear with me.

To start off, I'll take you back in time about 9 months…

_______________________

The scene- 100's of high schools across the state and two middle schools are gathered for the annual Texas BEST Robotics competition. The final scores just came in. EMS (my Middle School) places 4th in state, making it the best middleschool in the country when it comes to the BEST competition.

The Facts- I, being a seventh grader on our web/tech team, helped create a website that helped us place so well. I also delivered one of the highest scoring oral presentations at the competiton.

_______________________

Scene 2- 3 weeks ago 2nd week of school

In the advanced computer class at my school, I sit across from Hassan.

Description of Hassan-

Person who is always asking for help, help on basic HTML, forgets to close tags, thinks he's better than everyone, even though he has a grade much lower than most everyone elses, Decided he hates me after I refused to help him set up some frames on a basic HTML review.

Scene 3 -1 week ago~Robotics Meeting

The robotics team meets once again, hoping to take an even better position… I have high chances of being web captain, as I am one of the 2 members from last year, and one of the best people at web design.

____________________

Scene 4-This morning~MM8+Robotics

Hassan decides he will join web team and run for captain because he's "always wanted to be captain of it". Previously, he wanted to be on engineering. He wasn't in robotics last year. He begins spreading propaganda to all the amiable 7th graders as to how terrible I am, and how wonderful he is. If he wins, I'm toast.

More Facts- He's more popular among the 7th graders than I am, and the 7th graders make up the vast majority of our team.

The Hope- One of my best friends will probably be CEO… who can influence decisions.

<Tune in again for further details>

<Come next monday or tuesday, I'll have either won or lost>

<I may have portrayed Hassan as a bit more of an idiot than he is… but I still think he's a bit of a moron>

<I hate politics>

<I sure hope Hassan doesn't come across this>

Only time will tell…

This 'Hassan' character looks like an ass to me, he knows nothing about what you're doing. If he wins I'm sure your web team will be pissed. Best of luck to you.

I hate my school. Ive always wanted to do robotics…

melee-master 18 years, 2 months ago

Yeah, my school never offers cool stuff like this. There is the school website group though… I could join that.

Kaz 18 years, 2 months ago

We have web design, but no group. The only intresting group is called the game club, I think they play things like starcraft and chess all day though =(

Warlin 18 years, 2 months ago

Thats lame :| the only club we have at my school is the 'anime' club…I'm not into that stuff. The only special activities I have this year are Teachers Aid and a trip to one of dem big cities

'Hassan' sounds a lot like a guy I know called 'Yuri' - he ridicules and desipises me, but when he needs help with something technical, he pretends to be my friend to get help.
