When I stumbled upon a link to the greatest high school english paper of all time my curiousity naturally stirred. Basically it looks like a student and teacher spent much of a semester spatting and this was Peter Nguyen's F-U. A ballsy move.
Anything with the line, "Walt Whitman was an awful child molester who was born in ancient Hong Kong" is probably worth a read.

This paper can be read here.



Don't know if you noticed, but Levi's has Walt Whitman selling jeans. At how many revolutions do you think he's spinning in his grave? Pretentious is the first word that comes to mind when seeing the pants company equates wearing jeans with freedom, law and love. The second is poop. What a waste of a poem. There's also a O Pioneers version which sounded a lot better in the Willie D song. Why didn't they just stick to eyecandy type ads like this?
