It’s important that we all

It’s important that we all look at this article because 1) it demonstrates the societal co-opting of the parental role, begging the unstated question whether people today are actually capable of raising their own children, and 2) I graduated from Grant High in 1982.  So I have to admit I find the article a bit disappointing.  Where did he tag?  The shops?  200 building?  The quad?  or - god forbid - Administration?  And what did he write?  His name (what an indictment of the public educational system, to write the one thing that will most clearly identify your guilt)?  Hot for Teacher?  I (heart) polynominals?  or just another giant floating eyeball with blood tears?  Details bring the news to life, guys.  If this kid was nailing his theses to the door of the assembly hall, there might be more to this story.  But the guy who’s been writing “Yukballs” all over my neighborhood?  Yeah, I think we’ve heard what you have to say.  Yukballs.  We hear ya.  Go tell it on the mountain.  Or at least my old high school.  I hear they have an opening for “narcissistic vandal.”
