but as soon as our grades slip, even in just one class, they send a report of it to our parents? Way to treat us like adults responsible for our own lives.
I am now immensely grateful I chose not to study in the US.

I would like to send all students in my year who are smarter than me to Mordor, especially the ones gloating over it. Seriously, it's bad for both my ego and health and certainly not natural.

And bowling. I really don't understand why everyone has to go bowling all of a sudden.

Pipe

Spelling goes to Mordor as well, especially spelling on the Downs. Typically, I'm a good speller, but when it comes to spelling things like "Cailin" I have a hellish time for some reason.

NOOO!! Don't send bowling! Send rather the people whom you invite yet who don't show up when you invite them weeks in advance.

Completely agreed. I love bowling. I'm in a bowling league. I say we send the pins and the machines to Mordor. Well, maybe the pins can stay, but the machines must go!!

All right, bowling may stay.

But how about leaking roofs and clogged toilets and untranslatable texts and busy trains and whining roommates and everything that can go wrong on a Monday morning...?

Well of course those can go to Mordor. Just not bowling, cause bowling's cool.

I thought it sucked when my dad had to go to Philidelphia on Thanksgiving, well it'll suck even more if he has to go to Africa the week before Christmas. Again, to Mordor with whoever made that decision.

So ya.

It does not seem like a great idea.

I think you should assign the education system of whatever country you live in to Modor. Universities is not that bad in it self, but I might be influenced by the fact that the danish univerities are more or less free. . .
Agree! Universities, at least here in Sweden, should stay, but some teacher should take a trip to Mordor and take a hot bath in Orodruin... Also, all kinds of tests should be sent to mordor. And send those fees you have to pay (not me ) and the report-writing teachers (again, no problem for me) to some dark hole where they can think of what they have done...

And when I'm at it, send all these girls we'll never understand (=all girls) to mordor... on second thoughts, don't. Just give them a warning I'm so tired of not knowing what she really wants

And mondays..and sundays...
