"Listen when we talk to you."
If I have to give up common sense to pass the SAT, then I don't much care if I fail it. (I was about to cuss, but then I thought, I'll probably sound more credible if I don't.)
By the way, sorry to cut off the flow like this, but I have a Quick Grammar Lesson for you. I have just exemplified the full-sentence-parenthesized. This is the only time the final punctuation goes inside. If you are just inserting a parenthetical word or phrase into your sentence as a smaller part of the whole (like this), then the punctuation goes outside. They have wholly different rules from quotes'. (Notice the placement of the apostrophe, also, because it is not one of a pair but conveying the possessive.) How do I know I'm right ? I've been doing this for a long time. You can consider me a credible source.
Back to our feature presentation: If I have to give up common sense to pass the SAT, then I don't much care if I fail it. I think I know more than any of you mindless bozos the difference between what a word means and what is meant by it. There's a reason for the dictionary. What is it ? Now listen closely. To provide a standard. To give a general idea of the accepted meaning of a word in society. An unbiased denotation; a definition. The connotation is something else. That's freshman material, folks.
I quote Agnocure: "I live to write, I write to give, I give to fight, I fight to live." Notice, I don't live to be mindwashed. I don't write to practice for the big test. I don't give to be shot down. I don't fight so that your smart mouth can bit my tongue.
I live for me. I write for logic. I give for the world. I fight for righteousness. I want people to know me for me, not for who I say I am. I want to be a person. I want to be myself. I am here to learn, to apply, and to thrive. I don't care what school I go to, as long as those criteria are fulfilled.
I try my hardest to be reasonable. I volunteer to correct, to comment, to clarify. I don't want to hear you criticize my judgment and invalidate my education because I decided, out of the good of my heart, to make an unbiased suggestion. I think, since I am the only one who mastered any and/or all of the problems, I have attained a bit more credibility than you. You sit on your butt and you answer questions; then you go and say something like that, and still you expect me to help you ? I am appalled.
I may sound a bit harsh, especially cos I don't speak out much in person. But if you really make me angry, chances are you can look here cos I'm guna wana write about it. I'll just be forward .. my pen knows no limits. Happy Wednesday.
