I sat down because I was lazy.

Worth a read for the “secede from our marital union” part alone!

I'm from the UK but I have my own version of this.

I went to a Church of England school. When I was about 8, we had this super religious teacher start. She was Methodist so made us change the words of the lord's prayer to her version. I loudly and defiantly said the old one every time.

It wasn't long after, that I stopped saying prayers altogether, making sure to stare ahead with lips tight and hands unclasped, so nobody could mistake me as being pious!

I probably would have been that annoying kid had just been schooled in the USA.

Pious - adjective

Strongly believing in religion and living in a way that shows this belief: She is a pious follower of the faith, never missing her prayers


For anyone else who has never in their life encountered this word, lol.

I still have a feeling that me breaking down the whole classes in elementary school alone was a glimpse of genius and not some kind of sociopathy

In any case I am in the business for an article on how I was right all along, nurturing my indomitable rebellious spirit of America or something

I have never seen a kid sit down for O Canada unless they are in a wheelchair. Of course getting sent to the principle's is not worth it but I would admire a kid who had the balls to do it.
