One of my students is posting lies, damn lies, and gross exaggerations about my teaching on ratemyteacher.com. That annoys the bejeezus out of me.
I removed the Mass Effect community from my feed because, drunken jaysus on a pogo stick, it was spamming the everliving frack out of my friends page view, and I missed a lot of posts by actual people I give a toss about.
My writing is suffering, as I'm in the "Oh god can it please be June NOW" stage of the teaching year. All of my creative energy is going into trying to keep 150 kids from imploding while also fending off the BS complaints that I don't teach anything. Dear gods, kid--if you honestly don't know what I've taught this year, then you're not smart enough to be in high school. MLA Essay Format, the Heroic Journey pattern, the proper use of semicolons, how to annotate text, how to take notes, how to create a powerpoint presentation that doesn't make your audience want to kill themselves, how to present to a class, how to debate an issue, how to research a topic, how to choose sources... and more.
Annoying little git.
