Today's YouTube star is this student from Texas after giving his teacher an earful for simply handing him a packet and zoning out. Of course, while it's easy to blame teachers, we need to focus our attention to a system that supposes that handing out packets constitutes an education (online or offline). It's interesting, because this reminds me of myself in English class in grade 12, expressing similar sentiments for similar reasons (except my hair wasn't quite so long). Do take the time to read the comments, as they are actually quite good (I was afraid to read them, but this is not your typical YouTube comment thread). Oh, and one more note: vertical videos are just wrong; please view this PSA.
