the longest queues come not from the canteen, but out of the office.
Why are you all here? Isn't it lesson time?
Our teacher told us to come here. We have to see him.
Who? Which him?
Him. HIM.
Why did your teachers ask you all to come here?
I forgot to bring my form.
I didn't do my English homework
My hair was messy, didn't have enough clips.
I had too many clips.
My clip was too fanciful.
My rubberband colour was pink.
Mine was brown.
My short hair was too long.
My long hair was too short (to be tied).
My socks reached my knees.
Mine couldn't be seen.
I was using my handphone in class.
I was eating in class.
I was doing something else in class. I'm here to see if it is allowed.
Oh my, then what's the other long queue for?
Oh that? That's for those who need to call their parents.
Rules are not dead! No, how could they ever be dead. They are ALIVE, constantly changing with the trends. Is this trendy? Yes? Then it shall be eaten by the Rules.
Due to the entirely arbitrary nature of rules, each and every person or personnel has their own interpretation of it. What may be considered offensive to one, may not seem so to the other.
In addition, when the banning of something occurs,the thin edge of the wedge phenomenon occurs. Once you start banning something, you are obligated to ban something else that is similiar. Therefore, the wedge is driven further and further in with all the things that is banned and soon, everything that is not THIS will be banned.
Now, why does the above 2 paragraphs sound like the first speaker's speech of THBT all forms of art should not be subjected to censorship? Oh, maybe because it is, seeing that it is just a paraphrased version of my speech.
Surprise surprise! I NEVER THOUGHT that something as straight forward as rules would sound so similiar to CENSORSHIP.
:O
