Before I start, read this short article. I came across it this morning and i just got SO angry about it. I almost yelled at the computer screen like i did when i watched the redskins finish their season 2-6 after having one of the top 3 starts to the season in the NFC (and thinking about it now still brings tears to my eyes).

My first reaction after reading this: ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!?!
My second reaction after reading this: ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME STILL?!?!
My third reaction after reading this: An overwhelming desire to roundhouse kick this authority figure in the face. Give me a break! (Kit-Kat)
This is what i have to say to all teachers and principals on the day of my brother's graduation and so many others: Graduation day is OUR day! It is OUR day! Shut your fucking mouths about "sticking to the rules" or whatever you guys use to go on your pathetic power trips that make you feel like you are big and bad. You aren't given respect, you earn it. And the way to earn respect from high school seniors is to treat them like they are adults!
If a kid wants to blow a kiss to his family, how is that so offensive that you have to send him back to his seat without his diploma. How embarassed he must have been!
At the very end of the article it talks about how they had problems 4 years ago with silly string and beach balls. I can understand the silly string cuz that is messy. But beach balls? where is the harm in that?
My final message to teachers and principals is this: Let the kids have their fun. Graduation day is the culmination of the past 18 years of their lives. It is the celebration of the end of the first chapter of their lives and the beginning of the next. If they wanna blow a kiss to their family, let them. If they wanna hit some beach balls around while they have to sit thru your boring ass commencement, let them. Do not make me blog about this shit again. Or i will find you and dropkick you.
PS- i just saw a commercial for american pie 2 when jim and stifler kiss. You couldnt pay me enough to interlock lips with another dude. Sorry.

That is pretty ridicoulus. How is blowing a kiss, especially to your mother, in any way, breaking of a rule? What rule could that have broken??? The rules must have stated: when your name is called, walk up shake hands, accept diploma, walk off. Do not show signs of happiness and do not appear proud and thankful. Put that schools decison makers on my assassination list.
