Slade would later marry Ms Downs, and Sims would become a phenomenal district attorney with Slade as his mentor.”

    I got a question. I’ve only read the overview of the film but from what I got, is Charlie really in the right here. Yes, the teacher bribed him but if the students do the prank then why stay silent? Even though technically the prank was wrong, I’d get it if they were mates but, from this scene, it doesn’t look like. What’s really the point of it realistically speaking?

But if what it depicts is no longer possible in reality, I’d say let us drink the poison cup to the last drop and be properly and honestly insane by making mindfuck movies, other forms of visual art, and horrendous ‘music’. I’d say let’s completely devalue art and hand it to technology. Nay, I’d say let’s devalue Mozart and Rembrandt as AI can replicate their creations. Who needs artists when cheap fakes will achieve the same result? Oh, wait. I think we are actors and spectators at the same time in a global rampant mindfuck fest.

Ήμουν πάντα δίπλα σε αυτά τα παιδιά και τους προστάτευα, από κάτι παρόμοιο. Χάρηκα και ένιωσα περήφανος γιατί πέτυχαν στη ζωή τους. Έγιναν ηγέτες που προστάτευσαν του αδύναμους και αυτό ήταν το καλύτερο δώρο για μένα, επειδή έγινα φάρος για αυτά τα παιδιά. Η ταινία αυτή πρέπει να διδάσκεται, έτσι ώστε η παιδεία να έχει νόημα.

    "Watch your language" is an even stupider phrase when you're saying it to a blind guy.

    This speech should be required for all college students to counter the crap being taught. Our young minds are being destroyed by the stupidity of those teaching them.
