NPC jumps into the 21st century

Well, many of you may have noticed all the new and flashy technology that has been popping up all over school. We now have projectors in class rooms, so I guess that means no more stealing the bulbs from the over heads to postpone class. 
I briefly interviewed Mr. Anderson who says he is refusing to take that step into the 21st century. He was quoted saying, "I was born in the 20th century and I'll die here. And there's nothing you can do about it". 
  
T.V. monitors all over the halls are relaying important information like, "there will be 5 days of school this week", "Sticking all of the freshmen's heads in toilets is not only mean but is punishable by law"... and most importantly, "You are required to go to all of your classes."
  
Also, there is a peculiar bulletin board at one end of the senior hallway that flashes, "Happy New Yea__r" (the "R" doesn't show up at first and is always in a different color) in as many different way as you can think. Apparently, whoever is in charge of that thing doesn't realize that the new year is approximately 352 days away.  
And just a little side note about that one; there is the possibility of a cash reward for the first person leaving a comment with a detailed description of how to change what it says. 
     
So keep your eyes peeled for more 21st century technology popping up around school. There have been rumors floating around of teachers getting Segways. But it is still unconfirmed.

"Crafty Coward?" ..... That's the best the VoNPC can do?

I have to say, I'm a little disappointed that, with the editorial creativity historically evidenced by the authors of VoNPC, that they weren't able to originate something better than that? Where's the humor?, Where's the "double entendre'," Where's the "comedic sarcasm?"

Curious is anyother VoNPC readers captured the irony between the author's serial (that's not the Captain Crunch variety) postings of "NPC jumps into the 21st century" and ""Crafty Coward" makes pathetic attempt at mocking blog."

Where is the irony you ask? After the authors ruthlessly attack me, - in fact call me names ("Crafty Coward") - for highlighting their failure to respect grammatical integrity .... what do they do? Immediately respond with an attack of their own against the authors of NPCHS video. And what is it they are attacking you ask? ... "Grammatical Integrity" ---- can you spell HYPOCRITE?

Hypocrisy ...the act of preaching a certain belief, religion or way of life, but not, in fact, holding these same virtues oneself.

VoNPC I commend you in your efforts to "give a voice" to the silent crowds of Northpointe Christian High School, however, be careful little fingers what you type.

Dear Crafty Coward,

I'm sorry I have mislead you into believing that your opinions aren't valued. Words cannot express just how important your feedback is to the VoNPC staff. Your opinions is so very very valuable to us (heavy sarcasm, incase you didn't pick that up).

Actually as far as your concerned there is no point in you reading the blog anymore, not only because I am slowly phasing it out but also because, frankly no one cares what you think.

I release that you maybe slightly offended that I have brought to light your insecurities, but you shouldn't have picked a fight.
You may also feel slightly ill accomplished because you didn't manage to get me to dedicate another entire blog post to you, but I didn't want to waste server space.

I must admit, I am some what confused as to what you meant about me attacking the authors of the NPCHS video. Please enlighten me as to what you meant by that.

And since you seem to be such a fan of irony, I thought I would point out some more for you. I found it very ironic that you continue to be so bold (even mocking the "Crafty Coward" name, and yet you still refuse to say your name. I mean honestly, you can't keep mocking the blog if you don't even have the courage to put your name behind your little comments.

I'm sorry if my poor grammar has upset you. But to tell you the truth; in my list of priorities grammar falls somewhere between homework and flossing (which happen to be at the bottom of the list).


And since you seem to be so interested in giveing definitions of words I thought I would give you some. These are some of the words that people are beginning to attach to your name.

Moron- a person who is notably stupid or lacking in good judgment.

annoying-causing annoyance; irritatingly bothersome

Obnoxious-highly objectionable or offensive; odious: obnoxious behavior..... annoying or objectionable due to being a showoff or attracting undue attention to oneself

Unwelcome- not welcome; not giving pleasure or received with pleasure; "unwelcome publicity"; "unwelcome interruptions"; "unwelcome visitors"

Uncreative- not creative; "an uncreative imagination"


Well I commend your effort to mock the blog, however, stop leaving comments unless you plan on saying your name (in which case, more power to you).


And just a quick question. Are you a teacher? Because if you are then you need to get a life and find something more entertaining to do then mock students blogs.



(No, I did not proof read this comment)

Petition to stop Phase 1 of the phasing out of Voice of NPC blog. All successful blogs have trolls avid for their own lulz. You've got great idea to say, and a good voice to write it in, ignore the fallout.
