Did anyone here participate in high school policy debate? Best activity ever. It makes you think so fast and so cleanly. I miss it so much.

Well...not exactly. But earlier this year a substitute for my gifted class dropped a "freshman are inexperienced/dumb/etc" remark. I dropped an F bomb right as it got silent in our class. He asked me if I had said what I said, and I just charged on in proving his comments fallacious. It shut him up.
