WTF Is It Now?!?

I hate whiny grade-grubbers

"A lot of reports in Washington are never read by anybody," Bush said. "To show you how important this one is, I read it."

Could Smirky McFratboy be more of an adolescent? He reminds me of students I've had who have dicked around all semester, and then frantically try to save their grade by doing, in a token, useless fashion, what they should have been doing all along.

Another tactic used by lazy students: being "straightforward." "I know I've screwed up bad," they say, with a puppydog look. "Yep," I say cheerfully.

And it's too damn late to do anything about it, so take the D-minus and leave before I get pissed off.
