More than ANYTHING, I hate B+s. <–look, it even looks like B.S.
I really wouldn’t mind it too much if Truman actually showed +s in your transcript, but they don’t. So teachers tell you, “Hey, you did a really great job, but you tapered down a little towards the end. That’s why I’m giving you a B, but a B-plus.” WHAT THE FUCK BULL SHIT!
Why don’t you just give me a straight up B then and cut the crap! I don’t want a sympathy (+) when it doesn’t mean anything but tell me I’m not good enough. I think teachers believe that adding a plus will encourage students to work harder, but for me, it tells me to not bother, because I have no idea what your subjective standards are and I’m sick of working my ass off for a B+. For Fuck’s sake, I’d rather have a C than a B+; a shitty grade in place of an indecisive grade. In my grading world, since I don’t get Ds or Fs, the B+ is literally the worst grade I can get.

What’d you get a B+ in?? Don’t tell me it was Capstone.
