Listening to Skylar and his mother again after so long, I swear they are even more loathesome than they were the first time. And yet, at the same time, they're even more hilariously incompetent at getting what they want, and completely defeat their own purposes for being there.
Nice going, you two, proving that the administration was right in deciding that Skylar was no longer welcome at Carroll for being a belligerent, hostile, bullying little snot, and that he had full parental support and approval for being such.
This time around, what annoyed me the most was that the college representatives let that meeting go on for over an hour when it was obvious that Skylar and his mom were just going to be rude, insulting, and bullying the entire time. After about 15-20 minutes of that shit, somebody needed to say, "This behavior is exactly why you're here in the first place; if you can't discuss this like rational, mature adults, there's nothing more for us to to say, and we're not here to listen to you heap abuse on us. You have been given three options that will allow you to finish your [LOLtastic BA in CS] degree; make your decision and get back to us by Monday at 5:00 PM."
(But then again, this is what you get in female-dominated workplaces, where maintaining at least the pretense of "niceness" gets favored over dealing with shit effectively. Yeah, I'm triggered. Fuck.)
