2. That's wonderful!
Dno't know if it's legitimately a high schooler, but good writing and spot on commentary.

If you make fun of the president that means you hate him and are a enemy combatant. The president has so much to worry about, like his physical fitness and if he takes his sedatives on time, he doesn't need some wise-ass kid . . .

4. That's a pretty astute high school sophmore.
Or maybe it isn't... Either way, its well-written and pretty damn funny!

6. I don't buy it.

Just seems fighy a 15 y/o would write something like this. I'm not saying it couldn't be done, but I wouldn't be surprised if it were just a fake.

7. Reminds me of Brando's soliloquy in Apocalypse Now
"We train young men to drop fire on people. But their commanders won't allow them to write "fuck" on their airplanes because it's obscene!"

8. A little off of the topic...
I noticed your graphic...

Here's a website I found today that you may enjoy.
It's another laugh riot.
