Maybe if you payed attention in school, you'd at least learn how to lie half way successfully.

Want to know what's worse than bad grades? An idiot who can't keep their story straight.

Because to get A's, I need to study hard. I've got ADHD. I minor case, and then Aspergers. Look that up. (I also have ASD, which is why I tend to prefer to be alone. I was born with all of this. genetics.)

I've got Aspergers, and a slew of other disorders I was "lucky" enough to inherit from my mother, but that never stopped me from excelling in school. You are fast losing that which you could never support to begin with. Quit now while....well nevermind. It's too late for you.

Egad.
How did this go from racism to whether or not grades are important for college? x_x;;;
Anyways..
About the racist thing: Yeah, the lady sounds racist. Not the hardcore type, but she's -definitely- got the mentality. [Trust me on this; I grew up in Alabama, and I -know- what racism looks and sounds like.]
About the education thing: I don't know how it works in Canada, but in America, the better grades you have, the more of a chance you have to not only get into a good school, but to get a scholarship or two as well! [And trust me, with the price of tuition these days, that's a pretty important thing!]
Also...sorry DarkPrayer, but really it just sounds like you're trying to find excuses to be lazy than anything else. You don't have anything that would keep you from making really good grades in school, except for the fact that you simply don't -want- to make better grades...which is going to come back on you when college application time comes [unless you have parents who are filthy rich and willing to completely, financially support you while you're away.]

Because DarkPrayer blames Asians for making her look bad with regards to grades. That should answer your question.

So....you're from Alabama...... I'm sorry. Are they one of the states where, if you're not black or white, they don't know what you are?

Heh. Yep, pretty much.
To be fair, things are changing for the better a little; it's just extremely slow progress.
I think a better education system and stiffer drug and weapon laws would be a -great- benefit here.

*shrug*
I don't know her that well yet, and I have the -terrible- habit of giving folks the benefit of the doubt first.
It's only after repeated offences that I call them on it...or if it just doesn't make any logical sense at all.

So she's saying that Asian people work harder in school, achieving better grades and making their white counterparts look lazy in comparison?
She is obviously extremely racist. Beyond any feasible redemption.

Nice try, but what's making her racist is the fact that she said many times she HATES them because they're smart. That IS racist.

I could say that I hate a group of black people in my class because they get top grades all the time.
Does that make me racist, or mean that I'm exaggerating my envy of those who do well academically?

First of all, no one made the implication that she's an extreme racist. If anything, she should be strung up for decreasing the average IQ.
Second, tell me how the following statement isn't racist:

Just because she complimented the race, doesn't cancel out the fact that she doesn't like working with them for reasons that are so rediculously stereotypical.

It's a racist remark because you specified that you hate working with a group of people who happen to be of a specific race.

I think it's very possible that it wouldn't be racist.
However, if you said you hated black people for any reason, that would be racist.
That is exactly what she did. End of story.

I don't hate Asians! I only hate it when they cry over a B+, or higher.

So you don't hate it when white people cry over a B+ or higher?

Okay, let's make a hypothetically "racist" statement.
"I hate working with black people, because they achieve better at school than me."
Compare with:
"I hate working with people with glasses, because they achieve better at school than me."
Now, if you said the second one, people would say "Aww, hang in there, try harder, blah blah blah".
You point out a certain characteristic of the group that overshadow you and suddenly you're racist?
For fucks sake, by all means criticise this girl, but don't grasp at such ridiculous reasons to do so.
@Cyntrox: I think she's either saying that they don't cry over it, or they don't achieve higher than that normally.

Nope. You said you didn't like them because "they are so damn smart compared to you". Nothing was mentioned about Asians crying over a B+ grade. Quit changing your story around.

But that's why it bothers me! They are SO smart and yet it's not good enough for them. They HAVE to get A's. A+...what's next? A++? Listen, I am sorry. Can we please just end this? I hate fighting, even online. I should have kept my big stupid mouth shut and said no rude remarks. I AM sorry.

Hang on, you just said it was the parents who stress the kids to have good grades:

So you hate them because you're lazy then?
moving on...

Um, which you should have if:

Which the Asian kids parents tell them to do, and which you stated yourself.

Yes, you do. You said you'd kill for a B average.
Quote:

Isn't B and up around B average? And didn't you already study hard? You must work really hard by 11 grade then...
Quote:

|
Make up your mind! Do you study hard, or are you just lazy? You state both things... and if you're lazy then don't blame a whole race because you don't study yourself.
Quote:

Well, that's all fine and dandy.. except that you said you got C+ and kill for B average, which makes your current grade.. well.. bad, according to yourself since you put your standard at B average, yet again.

But you won't, since you're lazy, right? I hope you wasn't too lazy to read through this though and have a serious pondering over what you write.
Sorry for the "attack" but you're just getting yourself even more tangled up in contradictions as you go along and that's not good (besides, it looks quite silly). Not for you, and not for the readers of your posts which gets annoyed of your constant change of facts. It's like crying wolf one time too many and soon noone will even bother to read more serious postings from you...
