If you read this, if your eyes are passing over this right now, even if we don't speak often, please post a comment with a memory of you and me. It can be anything you want, either good or bad. I promise not to come after you with a spatula, either way.

If you want (for when you're finished), post this little paragraph on your blog and be surprised (or mortified) about what people remember about you.

and then he wrote "no, being aggressive in my arguments is the only way to make you see that you were wrong in implicating outsiders in this. whoever called on Ms. Stanic was also wrong. i repeat my initial point, we do not need anybody outside of this grade reading the conference. if they do because they have the permissions, that is not up to us to change. however if you intentionally implicate them, you are doing harm to this grade, and specific people in it, and not good. the whole point of this was to get people to admit that this "punishment" was not deserved, not necessary, and completely unfair, and that it should be repealed. that was my goal in one of my messages, which got immediately disapproved by jennface."

i will fucking kill whoever next calls me jennface. i hope you see my reasoning, because he's an assh
