The vast vast majority of colleges do not take the essay portion into account. The SAT is considered to be out of 1800, and the 2400 system is something TheCollegeBoard cooked up for funsies.

To be fair to students, the way the SAT has you write an essay was pretty shitty. It was the last section of the test, so you were already there sitting through a mundane bubble-filling session for a few hours. And then you were only given like a half hour to write an essay on a given prompt, some of which were stupid. They were kind of setting you up to write a bad essay.

When I took it it was the first part of the test. Albeit it was still about half an hour and a completely awful prompt.

I heard it on Sneaky's twitch, and knew at once it was my civil duty as an American to share it with yal. No rugrats.

It's also more funny if you know the original song lmao

The original creator took it down because "it was meant to satirize" and she doesn't "stand for or condone" stuff like lolicon.

To someone like me who doesn't really anime, much less lolicon, it definitely felt like a satire and a critique about child sex abuse/rape. And it seems like that was the intent! But people were using it as "some kind of lolicon anthem" so I can see why she took it down.

Initially I confused "George Zimmerman" for "George Zimmer" and was really, really confused.

Is George Zimmer's idea of a suit now, wearing your own blood to the ball?

Um, I don't see it.

Are people so easily amused and sexually charged these days that they mistake a large wooden stem for a wang?

Amphibians are more sensitive to water pollutants than reptiles and other aquatic animals.

This sounds like a hentai plot. Man dumps paint thinner, sewage, rat poison and DDT into his backyard creek, and it causes the local frog population to sprout extra eyes, fingers, and massive erections.

Tengu Eggs?

You've seriously never hatched one?

I did in 2013 and named him Sirocco the Dawn.

He tried to fly away a few months after hatching but was struck down by God as he tried to fly into the sun.

Nah we don't have those in America. Nor kinder eggs. Or a lot of things, actually.

If it exists, some fuck will find a way to choke on it.

Wow. Here I thought you'd have good taste and name him Shura the Blue Flame.

You've failed me Dopple.
