Oh wtf

It's a writing test. It has nothing to do with knowledge of camels, it has to do with creating a coherent sentence.

Dumbasses. I pray I am in a position to not inflict my future children with public schooling.
That is all. *expletive deleted*ck you all, eat *expletive deleted*it, and die in a fire. I have considered writing here a long parting section dedicated to each poster, but I have decided, at length, against it. *expletive deleted*ck you all and Hail Satan.

My girl is only four and she knows some camels have two humps and some have only one.

Maybe having an old dad (her friends think I'm her grandpa) helps with that but I think by the fourth grade most kids would have a good grasp on the animals in the world.

One hump is a Dromedary camel. Learned that in Tangier. <-- First and most likely only time on the African continent.
I needed a mod to change my signature because the concept of "family friendly" eludes me.
Just noticed that a mod changed my signature. How long ago was that?

Probably would have got better results if they'd have specified a unicorn for girls and a skateboard for boys.
WHATEVER YOUR DEFINITION OF "INFRINGE " IS, YOU SHOULDN'T BE DOING IT.
