[sblock=hating on middle schoolers]middle schoolers are the bane of the earth. The kids have no perspective, and are VERY opinionated, and do stupid STUPID things that could get themselves, for example, two days ago after school, a kid skateboards down the hallway, which was marginally busy, failed to turn correctly, and slammed into the wall, and was somehow uninjured, and then that same kid, and five others, were insulting us, literally, about how we were'nt cool because we played pokemon, and used nerf guns instead of airsoft or paintball, and I came very, very close to getting up and beating the snot out of those suckers, because first of all, they don't realize that nerf can hurt even more than airsoft, if you're good at modding, and can be better than airsoft, as I've stunned a squirrel before, and second of all, when they were saying how "not cool/gay we were" for playing pokemon, they would put their hand on the ground, and say, you're inb the ground, that's how not cool you are, then they would stand on a table (against school rules, mind you) and jump up as high as they can, putting their hand in the air, saying that's how cool they were, and they were CONVINCED that there was no other cool or opinion other than their own, and there was one that was continually pulling his pants way down and saying "do you like that?" which made me hate him even more, and there was another time while we were discussing video games, where they were dissing pokemon as un cool, about which ANY college student would disagree, and then claiming that Black Ops was better and when it was pointed out that Team Fortress 2 was better they scoffed at it, and said that it was dumb, to which we replied that they only thought it was dumb because you had to work as a TEAM like in the army but unlike black ops, where you just run around by yourself. And yes, I realize that they are only middle schoolers, BUT, when I was a middle schooler, I at least had half an ounce of respect for my elders as opposed to spitting on the floor in front of them and continually telling them that they were wrong, I also didn't go around using words that I didn't know, and then pretending I do, until they ask me to define the word, in which case I did not go uhhh... so yeah, sorry for the rant, I've had a very bad week, and the encounter a couple days ago just set me off, when i get like this I find a picture of them, pack an old pair of jeans and a sweater of mine full of stuffing, put thir picture on it and shoot it (with nerf guns of course), which relieves the stress very well, especially my high powered one, where I set it up on a box sitting, and then shoot it and it falls off, which gives me a strange sense of accomplishment, but I only do that when A: I've been having a really bad time recently for a while and B: I REALLY hate the person that I make the thing for, as in despise.
A good thing for me is that I got a boatload of extra credit in spanish, because I was the only one of five kids to actually show up to help with the school spanish festival for the whole time, and only three of them showed up at all, only to bail when it got busy and not come back.[/sblock]
