Ohhh! Poor little darlings
They clearly have plenty of time to tackle the big issues in the Queensland education system.
Teachers have been told to stop marking schoolchildren’s work with red pen because it is an "aggressive" colour, and teacher are advised to consider their pen choice because it may offend children.
This was contained in a Queensland Health document proposing "strategies for addressing mental health wellbeing in any classroom".
I trust no-one feels offended or upset by my aggressive choice of red text in this post.
Stiff shit if you do!
The wankers that actually wasted work time dreaming up this shit ought to be named, shamed and fired.

I am scared. Errors I made at school used to marked in red. I will do better. Not sure that I did, but mistakes need to be highlighted.
Heard about this rubbish last night, what a load of crap!

to have a scotch,or perhaps I should make that camomile tea? Utter wankery.
hello! just dropping by..visiting and dropped ECards!
We cannot really predict “what evil lurks the human mind” and similar to this, my beloved country has even passed a bill (or still in the process of passing it i am not sure as i am abroad by now and have not read more on it) that it is punishable to call someone ugly… and if one is ugly, i think it is more offensive to call him or her beauty? In my opinion that would be double insult…
