No teacher likes to think his or her subject is irrelevant or unnecessary. While I understand that you may not have a burning interest in a core subject that you have no option to drop, it is incredibly rude not to give it your attention.

and i'll admit a grudging admiration for the detail and subtlety employed in mimicking a brightish (for a 16 year old) but still really quite ignorant 16 year old Tory.
But I was talking about is persona.

"It's like I can't win."
Now is your time. Let loose the canons of logic, drop the bombs of superiority. Then go to fucking bed when your mum tells you.
