   Dacatster replied to Raven Sierra's topic in Emergency

   Honestly, I pretty much ignore what ever is said. I was surprised when I heard a 3 year old call me a Puta (SP maybe wrong.)Once I found out what that was I told the parents they were bad parents for teaching their child that and laughing at it.

    Dacatster replied to TheNursingdoll's topic in General Students

    I had to retake OB because the professors were worthless. Out of 80 students, 66 failed. They failed because their notes/lectures in class were different from the book, and never agreed with each other. We did not know how to answer the tests, since...
