Seriously, does the world just have some ******** get together about how to make my life worse...
Seriously... This is the e-mail I get from the ******** of a speech teacher I have...

I have looked over your outline for the second speech and I feel that I need to let you know that I have some reservations about the legitimacy of the topic itself. To present an award attributed to a noted politician like Hubert Humphrey to the "Association for the Advancement of the Undead" does not, I would feel, meet the expectations for the topics as delineated in the Workbook. Topics selected for presentaton should be worthy both of the time you spend researching-some of your sources, "rottentomatoes", do not seem to meet this criteria as well as time the audience the spends in listening which in turn brings into question your credibility as a speaker. Thus, I would strongly suggest that you select a different topic so that the audience's time in listening, grading and evaluating you as a speaker will not be negatively impacted.
Really, legitimacy of the topic? Weren't you the one who said we could present a real award to a fake organization or vice versa? Lets see here. Humphrey award, real. GAAUP, fake. Yep, topic legit.
Delineated by the workbook. Really, because it only gives generalization and I must refer you back to your own previous statement.
Worthy of my time? Really, if we're worried about the worth of my time then the reason I'm taking this worthless class is? Just wondering, because I haven't learned s**t in it?
So lets say instead of rottentomatoes I used Yahoo movies, does that make it even more legit just because it's more famous even though they use the same damn database for their information?
Audiences time... Lets see, audience of people who also think this class is bullshit and have better things to do than listen to a bunch of boring speeches. Yes, I'm sure a humorous non-nonsensical speech would be more worth their time than some hum-drum bullshit.
Also, you know what works better than threatening my grade over some bullshit that you're already wrong about, not starting a pissing match with me over the Internet. I've got far more practice in arguing bullshit than you do.
Oh, another thing, if we're worried about credibility here, you might want to use grammatically correct sentences. It might enhance your credibility. Also, not being a failed lawyer who is now a high school teacher would do a lot more for your credibility as well, especially given my view on primary school teachers. Get a doctorate and a professorship and then you might have some sort of credibility. <******** tard.
Seriously, who the ******** puts this sort of s**t as their signature?

Oh, by the way, that last bit about my prohibited ability to send this message on is complete bullshit. That is, unless of course you want to argue with an actual court precedence... Oh, that's right, you only got your law degree but never practiced.
