I've been using CardMirror so much lately, and am too poor to afford to donate to the esteemed Mr. Trufanov. In an attempt to show my appreciation, I began building a shrine in the second-floor storage closet of my school (which is also the debate room). However, my shrine was discovered and dismantled by our school's director of debate. When I went to the school to complain, they sided with our DoD. However, realizing that I could not only keep the shrine up, but also recieve funding if I registered as a "Student Affinity Group" at our school, I quickly created the Trufanovic Student Association. However, my Affinity Group was disbanded by our school after we requested $5000 to cover a photo of Truf in gold.
Three questions I have. One, has anyone gotten approval from their school to do similar projects in the past? How did you all go about it? Two, how else can I show my support for Truf? Three, can I sue my school for discrimination? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
As per my previous post, my 2A is cheating on me. I haven't worked up the courage to send him to Lincoln-Douglas for 2-3 years and forget, and I've had additional problems in dealing with him.
The other day, we were having a practice debate against two very strong opponents from our school. As I sat back, writing his 1NR on T-Minerals, I saw him "flowjerking."
Disgusted, I averted my eyes. I don't think he actually realized that I noticed, because out of the corner of my eyes, I saw him continuing, a joyous grin on his face.
Not only is he a cheater, but he's also a goon.
Is he the new stereotype for 2As?
How should I work up the courage to break up with him? How do I stop his disgusting habits?
I'm not even trolling when I say this–I entered a relationship with my 2A a couple of weeks ago, and everything was going well.
At first, people warned me about partnercest, and the old adage that "2As always cheat," but I had always paid them no mind.
However, when I checked my 2A's phone yesterday to use his calculator, I saw that he was getting texts from another 2N. What do I do?
Is my partnership ruined? Do I ignore it? I haven't mentioned it yet.
Also, this isn't a shitpost, I genuinely need help.
tl;dr: 2As cheat and lie, and 2Ns just have to shut up and give speeches.
