Writing Class: Suck My Pink Pet

Writing Class: Suck My Pink Pet

Writing classes are a joke.

Grading is so subjective in writing classes. Ever had that conversation with an English professor? That "how do grade your papers" discussion? What constitutes an A-, professor? What constitutes a C+, Doctor? Their answers are always conveniently vague. They give verbose, complex answers to coax you into believing that their grading standards are legitimate. But all of that gets shot to shit when you start doing peer review. You begin to read the most ignorant papers written in human history. Some of these students have such a poor grasp of the English language, you begin to wonder how they made it to college in the first place. Then, as if this isn't shocking enough, these incredibly dumb writers get B's and you get a C. Ludicrous.

If you haven't already figured it out, I'm sitting in my writing class again.
