Oh fuck me. Not another racist white liberal cuck who is sucking up to minorities because she got beat up on the playground by the black kids and had her lunch money stolen.

Where do these asswipes come from? She doesn't even have any titties.

So let’s say you are grading tests. Is there a box on the test to check if you are black white male female pink yellow a midget. What an artificial creation of supreme worthlessness. Can we get back to work now?

Even so, the discretion of the given grade is ultimately up to the professor. Very few of them grade fairly and evenly and if you happen to be a conservative or a Caucasian male, you stand a pretty good chance of getting screwed.
