WORTHINGTON, OH (AP) - On Thursday Mrs. Johanson’s 6th grade geometry class concluded almost unanimously that the assigned homework was “bullshit.”
“I’ll never use this stuff in real life,” 12-year-old Philip S. stated. “Isn’t that right Pete?” he asked looking for backup from his 21-year-old classmate.
“Sure won’t,” Pete replied. “Don’t need no geometry to flip any burger I ever came across.”
Becky K. stated, “These questions are dumb. Why do I have to know how to go ‘as the crow flies?’ I have never gone from ‘Friend A’s’ house to ‘Friend B’s’ house in the air. When I sprout wings and turn into a motherfucking bird, then maybe I’ll be interested in how ‘the crow flies.’”
Andy, a quiet boy in the corner, was clutching the sides of his desk when we asked his opinion on the matter. “I’m gonna hunt down this Pythagorean guy and kick his ass.”
With the exception of a handful of Christian students who referred to the geometry homework as “dookie,” only one child didn’t agree the work was bull. Nine-year-old Scotty B., “Super Geekoid” as he is known, called the homework “elementary.”
He was not available for further comment because four classmates began to pummel the living snot out of him.
