So I asked one of my teachers for a recommendation, three weeks later she responds to me with this:

“Yes, I have watched you for all four years of your college career. And all those classes make me hesitate to give you a reference: it won’t be as good as you would like it to be. I am HOPING that you will be an excellent teacher and that you are doing extremely well in your internship. I really want you to do well. And a reference from me—if I am honest—may not be in your best interest.

But I do appreciate your asking me.”

Honestly a simple “no” from her would have sufficed.

My question is who the actual fuck says shit like this? I mean, I may not have been the best student for all of your classes, but that should not impede my ability to be a good teacher.

Also, regardless of whether or not I was a good student, the fact still remains that you have watched me grow as a person and you have never seen me in the “teacher” position in the the classroom.

But don’t worry, I already have two interviews set up for this week with out your stupid jumper-wearing, grammar-obsessing, flamingo-loving reference.

Me: Uhhh, it's anime that revolves exclusively around gay butt sex.

Arielle: Oh. Doesn't Chris Snider read that?
