Lovely, lovely bile. I identify strongly with it. You have succinctly raved about the primary reason I'm not in school today. That's right, kids. I didn't fail out. I didn't get kicked out for horrible things. My paperwork was lost. Bastards. Bast-iddly-astards.
I just felt the need to say "you're not alone, Gryph." In my experience, misery does *not* love company, but you've got it anyway, editor man.
