    ^ Because it's a "blow-off" class.

    This thread is funny.

    What do you need to do in order to get a 5 on the Potty Training Exam?

    I heard you're forced to drink 5 gallons of water and not pee for 5 days. Did they change it?

    ^Really? Did you take AP Sarcasm yet? I'm taking it next year, but I'm worried that I might not do so well on it after I only got an A in my Sarcasm 4 class... (97.4, darn it!)

    No! I will stay strong... stay strong... stay strong... strong... stro- oh, forget it. I only have a 3.999 UW GPA (curse that Sarcasm!), 20 AP classes, a 2390 SAT and 790s on all my SAT IIs, and on top of that, I'm only on three international science olympiad teams (IMO, IPhO, IOI)!

    At this rate, I won't even be able to get into my local community college... *sobs quietly in a corner*

    *sniffs* It'll all be over after this... *picks up a bottle of painkillers* Goodbye, world! This miserable hellhole of a world.............................................

    (Err, I actually don't have any of the above; I do have pretty good stats: a 3.96 UW GPA, probably around 15 APs by the time I graduate, a 2360, 800s on 3 SAT IIs, but sadly no olympiad teams. :( I'm not that pro... yet.)

    (Wait, I'm dead.)

    (...Or am I?)

    BRAAINNNNNSSSSSS. AP BRAINNNSSSSS. TAKE AP BRAIINSSSSSS.
