Does anyone else think it's ironic how Chris' essay resembles some of the defining moments of World War II?

If by you mean it's a failure and has been put on paper, much like the Treaty of Versailles then yes.
 
Pure Honor Roll material, ladies and gentlemen.

Just call him Christopher Ricardio Columbus
 
So what's the context of this "Going to War with Japan" stuff he referenced? Like, it's obvious he really didn't care or else he wouldn't have put Woodrow Wilson as being US president at the time, but at the same time why does this book reference the Japanese invasion of Manchuria and the end of WWI on the same page?

Also, I'm going to read this paper to my dad (who's a bit of a history buff) when he wakes up. I'll let you know what his response is
 
I'm wondering what Chris would have said if asked about WWI. "Tensions were high in the United States and across the globe after the Great Depression, and everything snapped when Austria, Hungary and Serbia all started fighting."
 
My Sophomore year in high school our big English assignment of the year (or at least the second semester) was a research paper. We could choose whatever subject we wanted so long as it met the criteria for length, formatting, and was well-read in front of the class. I remember some moron did his about aliens, wrote it on notebook paper instead of typing it out, it was obviously way too short, and instead of reading it to us he just summarized his paper. I imagine that whatever he actually wrote was quite similar to this.

I can't believe he actually used "Ricardo" though. We already knew he was very proud of his basic Spanish, but I didn't think it extended to (trying to) using it in his other classes. I bet he signed all of his assignments "Ricardo" for a while.

I remember that. I actually did mine on ending support for Israel. Oh god the teacher flipped her shit.

I ended up getting a B.

As the CWCki points out, Chris has lingering attachments to the last time he was really able to get out and have a meaningful social life, even if his gal pals were "hired help" as he put it. So it comes as no surprise that a nickname intended to be used just for some Spanish classes would be cherished for life, like the High School Ring, his memories of his "gal pals", his yearbook, and apparently even his classwork that skyraider91 obtained, etc.

I forgot my nickname for my foreign language classes, if I even had one.

I don't find Chris' random use of Spanish as insulting, but it is out of place and random, especially when it's in English classwork. Now if I were Japanese, I just might be offended at the "barbarians" part.

I seem to remember doing something like that, except it was a short story.

Mine was basically an Indiana Jones rip off but with a twist ending.

My nickname was 'Leetle 'Orreur' in my French class. :P
 
Even though these documents skyraider obtained for us just reaffirm what we already know (Chris is retarded and a liar about his scholastic accomplishments), every one of them has been truly fascinating.

Do you use it as part of your full name?

Anyway, this thread reminds me of that episode of the Simpsons, "Bart of Darkness", where Milhouse is so distracted by his desire to go swimming that he signs Bart's cast as "MILPOOL". Maybe Chris was really distracted when writing this paper because he wanted to go play with "da hedgehog". I think that if he were really interested in history, he may have done a better job at it.
 
Tbh, Chris's claim to be an Honor Roll student has been seriously in question ever since he spelled his name out loud as C-H-I-S-C-H-A-N.

It's pretty obvious there was some 'special' category of Honor Roll for tards who made some kind of effort but still totally failed.

Hopefully I'm not derailing the thread here, but I thought that the "chan" was either an attempt at putting a Japanese honorific on his name (which is normally used for girls, children, pets, and lovers (I'm not sure about the last one though)), or "chan" like in "Jackie Chan", IIRC.

Either way, "Chris" still has an R in it.
 
War. War never changes.

The Romans waged war to gather slaves and wealth. Spain built an empire from its lust for gold and territory. Hitler shaped a battered Germany into an economic superpower.

But war never changes.

Didn't these girls tell him he was a creep or something?
 
Okay, so
I've got a Masters in History. After recovering from my initial reaction to seeing this paper, I had to make an official recording of it.

So,

A very quick, and I hope, fitting dramatic reading/ documentary film based on Chris' writing.

God help me, God help us all.

It would be perfect with some dramatic music playing in the background, like this one, or this one, for example.

I thought it was just his last name shortened. Just like how Chris is short for Christian in this case.
