I was always one of those people in school who also couldn't understand why people simply couldn't pronounce words correctly either. I mean, I wouldn't expect someone to just be able to pronounce some super long medical term, but it was just sometimes rediculous. I remember sitting in 12 grade English watching people stutter over words you should have known in 4th grade. Why the hell are kids like that pushed along the schooling system as if there isn't a problem? |
1. Major lol's at rediculous.... WB Googooly, you're making improvements!
2. What you described is why to this day, even in college, I hate it when teachers/professors ask students to read aloud - most people just can't, and listening to their broken stuttering makes me angry. |

also, adding an apostrophe to "word's" to make them "plural."
...using "they" as a singular pronoun, as in, "whenever somebody says this, I know they're illiterate." |

I'm not even trying to come off as someone who is far more intelligent then others. I'm not. I'm about average if compared to everyone else. But it's just a little upsetting to see sometimes. |
