"flaming nipple chops"-Your host, the man they call Ghost.

To say, 'nothing is true', is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say, 'everything is permitted', is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.
I don't know why, these things were always easy in every previous English class I had, but this just seems horrible. Every single sentence is worded so bizarrely it defies imagination for me..

I tried taking SAT reading prep on Khan academy and it required getting 5 correct answers in a row to pass.  On every 5th question I failed for like 15 minutes and it pissed me off.  It doesn't even tell you why you're wrong like in the math section so I feel I made the same mistake a lot.

Yes, and it's the same bullshit I spent the previous 4 years dealing with, but with a new name.

I think most people fail grammar tests, as long as the punctuation doesn't ruin the meaning of your message then I really don't give a shit .-.

This test is not so subtle at promoting gender diversity in workplaces and taxation.

Female athletes suffer eight times more knee injuries than male athletes; however, they can avoid injuries if they strengthen their hamstrings by jumping rope for a few minutes three times a week.
This isn't suggestive at all.
