What I want to know is who gives a flying fuck whether he has come to terms with losing [View all]

or not? A 74 year old man is holding up an entire country with a tantrum befitting a five year old.

Decades ago I conducted a review with a student who had failed the course.

I used to try and see what they knew before going over the final exam questions. As with all persons who wanted reviews, I checked his course work essays and his mid-term exam grades. He had failed all of them. So I asked the student to name four modules on the course outline. He couldn't name one. At the end of the review he said he still didn't understand why he failed.

I was so pissed that this arrogant entitled idiot had wasted my time asking for a review. The institution asked him to withdraw the next year. Turns out it wasn't just my course - he failed in every fucking course and blamed everyone but himself. He was cut from the same cloth as the Con.

Fuck the Killa Con.
