How f*****g stupid do they think we are?

Administrators said the teacher did not use the font intentionally.

Not much on proofreading, I guess.

Not intentionally? Probably, but you have to ask why the heck is this font on a teachers school computer, and doesn't any idiot proof read this before printing a bum load of it?

"Administrators said the teacher did not use the font intentionally."

Which begs the question: "What was she doing with an X rated font to begin with?"

Or how does one look at a document they are typing up and not notice they used the same font on it as they used for a bachelorette party inviation? I don't get it.

The teacher should have some sort of punishment due to being a total idiot.
