School Mug

A place where all traces of creativity and independent thought of children are destroyed in order to turn them into cold, bitter adults working minimum wage because they spent too much of their youth trying to enjoy life instead of tediously studying subjects that they will not remember by the age of 21. If any child refuses to do the work and/or go to school, their parent/guardian is punished for it and the child is labeled with some sort of psychiatric disorder which may or may not be present. The schedule is ingeniously designed to slowly force kids to wake up earlier and earlier as they grow older to deteriorate their physical and mental health to the point where they cannot even concentrate on the work given to them to ensure that they will do poorly on tests and have to repeat the same courses. There is usually a long, useless paper assigned in at least two classes at a time throughout the school year along with daily homework to keep the students working at home to make sure that they will not have any personal life whatsoever. These said papers usually involve doing tons of research on an inflexible subject that require the gathering of large amounts of facts that have already been collected by scientists in the past. These papers must have very specific citations. If one period, comma, or letter is missing in a citation, the paper will receive a 0% regardless of content. In other words, torture.
