I have scored less than the class average on this paper because of gross incompetence on the part of the professor, if not outright bias due to my male sex. Postmodernism was a mistake. I am the only one in the entire class who really appreciates literature. 4chan will agree with me and soothe my ego.

>In reality
I scored less than average grade because I am mediocre, or at the very least did not put enough effort into my paper. An Irish literature University-level class, taught by a Professor who will have attained a PhD and rigorous standards of teaching experience over many years, will be thoroughly and regularly audited to ensure standards are robust. I have failed to grasp the importance of certain elements of literary criticism based around gender because I have decided all such studies must be part of a Marxist agenda. I have also reduced all 7 of my classmates-- who will have had to display the same levels of proficiency as I did to enter the course-- to "average hussies" because I simply cannot accept that they would have scored better than me. I have outed myself as a pseud who has grossly exaggerated his own ability to score highly without putting in the effort, and probably believe I am extremely gifted and thus deserving of a "literature career" handed to me on a plate.

no, their education system is kind of fucked, but the way they teach history/literature/rhetoric is very much "we wuz civilization" type shit. it got really bad with thatcher, because thatcher learnt history off churchill who was a mad bastard and an easy liar. it's why so many of them are convinced that britain will have the economic clout it supposedly had when it owned millions of plantations and factories across the globe by getting out of europe, because they think all the profit and massive infrastructure came from within the island and was wholly sustained by the island and that wealth was more broadly spread than it was in reality. they expect some grand age of dignity the same way doomsday cults expect to be saved by magical processes or passing comets, by being told stories about how this was totally done before (in an alternate history which never really existed).
the same thing happens with authors. because they're completely oblivious to wilde's mother being a psycho ultranationalist, they assume he's mostly british and going through the court system on a matter of genteel honour, rather than because his mother told him to. gay, fancy dresser, witty fellow, those they can understand. racial profiler who thinks english people are incapable of understanding him, not so much, and willingly going to gaol because you knew you were misunderstood is definitely beyond the pale. swift's another obvious case of this.

The mere presence of a woman next to something I love fills me with dread. It's like I've just arrived on the scene of a horrible tragedy. I don't even assume they're about to ruin the thing I love, I assume they're in the middle of ruining it or have just finished ruining it. Women are so efficient at ruining things, you can never get there early enough to eject them and prevent it. It's always too late.

Obvious general truth that may or may not apply in your situation: women are intellectually mediocre, collectivist, and insecure so they prefer reading things written by and for women. There's also a fair chance that she has a vendetta against white men because of an imaginary privilege granted to them by society, and because of sour personal experiences in her past

Kekekekekekekeke, are you actually arguing for the Norman English plan that never worked out? More Irish than the Irish themselves hasn't failed yet, why the sudden worry?

So we should send back Thin Lizzy and the mortello towers to stop us becoming French and the round towers to stop us becoming Norse need to be blasted. I get you senpai, you want to live American racism, to fit in with your internet buddies, and that's hard to do in a country which assiduously teaches history.

It is funny how many of the Gemmatrons are only concerned with replicating the world they've seen on the internet. Their whole definition of Irishness seems to the kind that would more readily include Boston in Ireland than Galway. Their other policies are all basically Trump's Twitter too. I think you might be on to something. Now I won't be able to see them as more than Ameriboos.

I understand you OP. (GPA = 3.9 for reference, so I'm probably not retard). Try hard for weeks, and condense paper into highly analytical and concise argument.

I'm not even going to try anymore. My hatred for women has increased significantly, and I'm going to leave this person very negative comments, since I heard it ruins their chances of Phd.

OP when will you realize that if you're a white guy you're supposed to work twice as hard as anyone else? You can't just deliver decent results, anything you do has to be undeniably good or they will seize the opportunity to put you down.
