Story time:
In high school, we had a project in sophomore year language arts class where we had to present a 10-minute speech on a career. Our teacher for that class, Mr. Hurrianko, had the biggest stick up his ass and was always self-righteous and condescending and he was fully aware of how much students complained about him. He'd assign bullshit essays and not even grade them just to make us do the work. He was a true asshole and he knew it.
This speech was the last major assignment for the year. Every kid needed to choose a different career, and you had to run it by Hurrianko a few weeks early to get it approved. You then had to interview someone who actually had that career. And you couldn't BS an interview, because Hurrianko would call the person and confirm that you actually spoke to them.
Enter Carter. He fucking despised Hurrianko. Even more than everyone else. He chose electrical engineer as his career. Hurrianko approved it, and nobody thought anything of it at the time. On presentation day, Carter walks up and starts his speech. He starts off "So I interviewed an electrical engineer. He told me how difficult and high-pressure his job is. He works long hours and had a ton of debt coming out of college. That's not the life I want to lead. Instead of talking to you about electrical engineering, I'm going to explain why being a bum and living out of a van is the career I want to have." The whole class was thinking "holy shit". Hurrianko was visibly pissed. Carter fucking crushed his speech about how sick it would be to live in a van and follow the surf up and down the Pacific Coast. By far the best speech of the whole class, which is what made it so perfect. After he finished, Hurrianko told him to "come see me after class."
The next day, I asked Carter what Hurrianko told him. I was hoping Hurrianko was going to say "Wow that was unique and creative and very well done. Way better than the repetitive cookie-cutter speeches everyone else gave. Great job". But nope, Hurrianko was too much of a dipshit to get over himself and gave Carter a 70% because he "didn't follow the rubric".
Fuck off Hurrianko, I bet you're still just as miserable 8 years later.
