Its called a liberry. Use it.

I'm not sure what particular version of stupidity you're dealing with but it can't be any worse than the University of Houston. I get excited when one of my lab partners speaks passable english. And even more excited when they want to participate in lab.

Its ebonics.

Oh. Well that's the easiest foreign language I've every learned. What's the big fucking deal, just learn it. You be set trippin yo you need to jump yo GAME.

Oh, I done did that learnins. Da problem be dat we gotta put tagetha some papers fer are classes and dem dum teachas don be acceptin' it.

Oh. Get popcorn. Just tell them to do it in proper english. Watch Jerry Springer in real time.

Was that ebonics or Smythe?

I finally got so fed up with correcting basic mistakes, that I told her to take it to the writing center. I wish I'd made the remark earlier in the semester, before I corrected 20+ pages of horrid HORRID writing.

She was like "Oh, I sent you my part to correct" and I was like "Can you please take it to the writing center, I don't have time to do this anymore"

>.> She got offended.
