30,000 + for the "Welcome Home Lebron" rally at Crakron U tonight..  Free tickets being scalped for $150.00.  Damn this fanbase is nuts and needs a championship.


I don't like to judge ... actually I do... but if you paid $150 to go see lebron give a speech then you're just a retard.



FYI: I will tell you the same thing I tell my students when they use the word retard in that way you did in my classroom.  Find a better word, you sound ignorant.

#1. I have never been in your classroom.  #2, yeah, and it's actually a habit I'm trying to break, but the second noun definition for retard is:
- a person who is stupid, obtuse, or ineffective in some way: a hopeless social retard.

I think I was within context of the slang use of the term. I do try to balance sensitivity with a healthy disdain for all manner of political correctness, so things sometimes come out up and down the spectrum. It's my gift.

Lesson #2 in my classroom: Be a man, admit mistake, and then move on.  Going to the #2 definition, still makes you sound ignorant.  Not a PC thing, work with these families, then maybe you'd understand.  Do better man!

sbh, bobcatsquared--definitely guys who can't and won't read (literally and in metaphoric/grasping way) and who belong and achieve in 9704's classroom style, on the outlier side.


okay guys, how 'bout some more 5000-and-no-content remarks.  so witty.
