Is this a conspiracy?

Yes, your ideas were considered too volatile to be given that platform from which to voice them.

But seriously, there's one in there with your name on now if you want it.

I PM'd Kyro and got one in like 20 minutes. I just used some initiative, y'see?

The elders of the council are very busy, and unlike some unnamed people, I am not arrogant enough to think that my personal blog is more significant than the overall well-being of the forum community.

Good day.

I just brought it to their attention, because the thread was obviously wasn't being read.

Bent, does your exam period conclude on Friday?

I do not know how anyone could do this on such an important test.

"Some factory jobs were so easy, even women could do them."
"Politicians favored a lazy fair economy."
"Harry Truman led many slaves to freedom."
"As a result of the Three-Fifths Compromise, slaves could only vote 60% of the time."
"It was hard to tell the Irish apart from each other, since they all had red hair and green eyes."

Were you watching just then? All those Stewie and Brians.

Not surprised. So many students here hate history. I think it's because it requires them to read, write and pay attention in class.

"Nixon was always throwing up peace signs – this says a lot about his foreign policy."

I cannot stop laughing at these. Every single one is golden.

I am terrified that I am going to look through them again and find something that I wrote.

I remember for our AP Calculus exam, one kid opened the free response section, looked at it for a few seconds, then closed the book and went to sleep.

Scopes v Monkey

I'd give a lot to take a course on ancient history. Just one of the things that has evaded me.

I've always liked history.

A lot of what we've done (especially since GCSE) has interested me. Apart from that Ireland unit at the start of this year.

Whoever asked me what the questions were like, I can't really remember.

"There was an equal number of free states and slave states in the 13 colonies."

That was really one of the best things I've ever read.

"The Sons of Liberty were responsible for the Boston Tea Massacre."

My word...

Some factory jobs were so easy, even women could do them.


I'd award marks for that.

Stephen Douglas MacArthur, Hester-Wayne Debate, Organ Trail, Sojourney Weaver, Kuts Klute Klan, Alien Seduction Acts, Birmingham Young, Sixty-Niners, Gag Reflex.

I think that it is actually a more appropriate name than the original.
