Right... small rant coming on...
I hate ignorant people who sit there in class and insult america right in front of me without sparing a thought that I'm sat there, listening to them!! I'm so sick of living in a country where I have to listen to everybody insult my country!! What ever happened to Britain and America being Allies?! We still are, aren't we? So why the hell does everybody here seem to think America is the worst country in the world? Why are we allies if the general population hates america?!
Now, let me explain why I'm so upset...
In my english class a couple of days ago, we were moving on to a poem about a british man who had to kill an irish man and thought it was strange he had to kill somebody of such similar culture. My english teacher used a war between Britain and america to compare. And the first thing somebody said was "Yeah, but all americans are fat."
So I death stared her... and everybody was like "Uh oh..." My teacher didn't bother saying anything. It's ignorant people with that sort of attitude that really get on my nerves!!
Excuse me, but I'm american, and I'm not fat. My whole family is american, with over 100 members, only seven of which are fat!! So no, not all americans are fat. Only about a third of americans are even overweight, and overweight doesn't even mean you look fat!
Oh, and another thing... some dork I have to sit next to in science randomly told me "America is the worst country in the world." for absolutely no reason!! So what did I do? I stabbed him, he complained. Well what did he expect? I'm not taking it anymore!
From now on, whenever I hear a crack about america at school, I'm gonna go balistic, I'm gonna yell, I'm gonna walk out of the class and slam the door, I'm gonna run away from school. And I'm gonna tell it like it is when I get caught. I'm gonna tell them it's going to happen every time they make generalisations like that.
I really can't stand it anymore. Just a few days ago, somebody called me an american piece of trash. So I shouted at them, death metal style.
Sorry for the rant, but I really needed to vent. I'm so fed up with it!!
