My daughter graduated from R.T.I. magna cum laude, I talked the administration into letting me graduate from Millersville state teachers college "thankyou laude". I think they were glad to get rid of me.

I acquired a lot more useless information after I graduated than before.

I just wanted to get that in before this thread disappears altogether.

I suppose that removes any mystery over the state of the US education system.

Yes, the US education is the best there is, that's why everyone wants to come here to finish their education.

Any school that does not make it on its own by paying taxes and not receiving government subsidies of any kind is a worthless piece of shit that should be flushed down the toilet like every other so-called non-profit organization that does not face the discipline of the free marketplace and provides only dreams instead of actual benefits.

I know everything is bigger in Yank Land but an entire school? Just how big are your toilets?

If Trump can build that wall, he can build that toilet!

Well I know he said he'd build a wall but until he's done it it's just words, same goes for the toilet. Actually, the idea of someone called Trump building a toilet sounds kind of right, somehow. Maybe it will happen, maybe he will build a big, beautiful toilet and make the schools pay for it before he flushes them.

I'm not a troll, that's official. I have a certificate.

But as I have said, it's not 100%, and this is one occasion when you have slipped.

I don't think Henry issues certificates.

Why? What have I done? I've behaved in a perfectly civilised manner, treating the thread with the respect it deserves.

Well if he did I feel sure he would have issued me with one.

And that is the problem, treating a thread with the respect it deserves, is often the mark of a Troll. (Some threads don't deserve any respect at all.)
