Bathroom Monologue: Louis’s Perfect Plan

Louis possessed the perfect plan. Over in Social Studies, they were doing the unit on Religion. Meanwhile in English, Mrs. Carmichael assigned a fifteen-page paper over the break on the topic of “Writing What You Know.” It took him four tries before he realized how to capitalize. He showed up cock-sure on Monday morning with a crisp copy of “Essay: Agnosticism.” The remainder of the fifteen pages were blank. And if Mrs. Carmichael failed him, he’d sue for discrimination.

    Half an hour ago everything I wanted to say about this led me on a rant about an incident from Junior High. So I waited a bit....and then came back. Apparently burning a teacher in effigy in your bathroom sink still works when you're an adult.

  4. This is the same guy who, later in his academic career, received the only "A" in his philosophy class for answering the final essay question "Why?" with "Why not?".

  5. That's right up there with the answer to the essay question, "Is Hell exothermic or endothermic?" If it doesn't become a classic email, there's no justice in the world.
