Ok, because you are such a good student, you are excused from turning in homework. Also, you do not have to eat the lunch ladies' surprise lunch, ok?

Isn't that just a euphemism for "insufferable suck-up"??

Homework:

Like the mythical half-man, hal-bull of grecian earns (the taxpayers of the day of course!), Dasshole's and Hillary's assaults on the supposed right-wing conspiracy are minatory delusions....
