Guest Black Tiger Report post Posted December 29, 2002 I got my grade report for my 3rd semster and for the first time in my ENTIRE LIFE.....I got honor roll. It only took me fourteen years in school. I'm going to try to weasel a few tapes out of my mom by using college honor roll as the basis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Lord of The Curry Report post Posted December 30, 2002 Congrats. Don't forget to try and extend that weaseling of tapes to the nether reaches of your family, such as grandparents, siblings, uncles, aunts and 4th cousins. Never hurts to try. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Sandman9000 Report post Posted December 30, 2002 I just finished my first semester of college, and I pulled straight B's, for a 3.0 GPA. I never had a report card in HS without a C on it, or worse. And what do i get for such an accomplishment? Dad: "We expect you do to better next time." See you in hell positive reinforcement. I understand the motive, but would a "good job" have killed? One more reason I'm putting my dad in a home first chance I get. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest The Electrifyer Report post Posted December 30, 2002 In every year of high school, I got an average of over 80 and all I get is my parents saying "If you can get 80%, why can't you push yourself to 100%?". Congrat though, Black Tiger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest meanmaisch Report post Posted December 30, 2002 Made the Dean's List for the third semester in a row. Rutgers-Camden is way too easy if I can do this well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Black Tiger Report post Posted December 30, 2002 When my sister and I were in HS and MS, the system we had going was that you'd get this much cash for an A, this much for a B and so on, anything lower than a C and we had to pay my mom, and it was more costly for us to get a D or F than it was to our mom if we got an A. After HS we no longer do the cash for grades, but just emphasis my point and help get the tapes, I tallyed up the grades and my mom would have been $58.00 in the hole. My weaseling did pay off though and she said I can pick up to twenty dollars worth of tapes from any tape site, so I'm going to Goldenboytapes, their prices are like 5.00 apeice. Sandman, too bad that's the way your parents feel about doing so good. When you dad is on his knees begging you to not put him in the home, remind him of that.
