Yeah, thanks for your support.
Bizarre is right.

That idiot would not back down no matter what we told her and then accused US of lying and making things up because she “didn’t believe anything teachers or their unions said.” After that, she tried to communicate in Klingon!! (I’m not making this up).

Some people are completely impervious to fact no matter how clearly they are presented.

She needs to go back to her home planet!!

LOL, I think you’re exactly right. Except the more she tried to “save face” the more foolish she appeared — right up to the point of insanity!!

Some people don’t know when to give up.
