Poor old George Orwell…

By literature - This FML is from back in 2014 but it's good stuff

Today, we are reading Animal Farm in class. Almost the entire class think it's about animal abuse. Including the teacher. FML

Ooooh crap. I teach. You need to wait a few days and if this keeps up, convey your concerns to the principal. Your teacher doesn't know her subject, is ignorant about an important classic AND incapable of figuring it out on her own. Granted, wages are so low for teachers that good ones often go off into other professions; schools also hire bachelor-level first-year teachers because they are cheaper. Still, this is really pushing it for bottom-of -the -barrel teaching :(

So are we... Op what middle school do you go to?

It's an allegory on the Russian revolution, the manor farm itself represents russia, and Napoleon represents Josef Stalin

All you need for my sympathy was the first line. I had to read it at school too and it was awful.

How on earth do you find Animal Farm awful?

Let your teacher know, where the hell he is landing!

This hurts my soul. I had an art teacher like this. Hang in there, homie.

Wonder how the teacher's gonna react to lord of the flies...

Teachers need to know about what they're teaching before they teach. At least they care about animal abuse, but still, your teacher is a moron.
