I wholly endorse Mrs. Bluebird's coma theory, but after reading a note that I found left behind in my classroom today, I would say "The Year of Brain Death" would be a more apt description. I am often amused by the content of student-to-student notes that I find or confiscate, but this one struck me with its particularly brutal brand of nihilistic shallowness. Keep in mind that this exchange was written between a 7th grade boy and a 7th grade girl who I guess (???) are friends. I have typed it exactly as it was written, and a big warning to the timid - the language gets severe:

Oh, quit whining and teach them Herodotus. In the original Greek.
I whine, therefore I am. I should teach them that; at least it's based on Shakespeare.
Wait a minute, that's not Shakespeare; I was thinking of "To be or not to be..."
