I couldn't help but laugh, though. I'm going straight to Hell -- do not pass Go -- do not collect $200. :p

"Well, Julie's a very special child," said her social studies teacher Jenny Giles., "and she has very special needs. Julie exhibits the signs of a child who needs a little extra help with her education. She never volunteers to answer questions in class, writes sloppily, always with her pens in her mouth, and she's reluctant to socialize with other children, just staring as they offer their hands in friendship. A couple of the other teachers and I had a meeting, and we decided that Julie would be better off in special education classes."
Wow! She writes sloppily! Imagine that! Most people without thumbs, or hands, or arms below the elbow, can write perfectly in at least three languages!
And she doesnt socialize well? Gee, I wonder why. Maybe its because the other kids make fun of her while your not looking.

I hope this story is some kind of sick joke.

Armless Girl Wonders Why She's Always Picked Last For Dodgeball; Legless Boy Voices Same Concerns at Kickball Tryout

The bolded is what gets me...

EDIT: I actually think this is a fabricated story. The picture was probably what sparked the writers into the fabrication. *shrug* That's only my speculation however.

It's pretty obvious it's a fabricated story...and I'm with you about them finding the pic and writing it.

Sick, twisted, messed up...but still funny. GOD, I'm SO going to Hell. :p

from the sports section:

God Requests He No Longer Be Affiliated With Notre Dame Athletics

2005-04-01 - Sports and Entertainment
SOUTH BEND, IN – In a move sure to turn heads in both the NCAA and Catholic Church, God Himself has requested that he no longer be affiliated with the Fighting Irish athletic program, citing the fact that they’re “stupid bad.”

The best part of the article was the last paragraph.

"I thought I was learning okay in my classes, but they told me I had to be in different ones," Julie said. "I guess they must be right. After all, who could argue with the unbounded wisdom and compassion of middle school teachers?"
