i used the word "gunna" in my essay.
i didnt do it till the night before and it was actually a really simple essay to do(hence why i did it till the last min) and im so used to using slang like "gunna" "ima" etc. that my english teacher read the first paragraph saw the word "gunna" and stopped reading it, giving me an "F"

how stupid is this?!?!?

You're right.  That was pretty stupid of you to write like a complete idiot.

The stupidity of the essay reflects the stupidity of the writer behind the essay.  Congrats, you're failing not only the paper but, more importantly, life.

It's completely fair, or close to it. You waited until the last minute, and you used internet slang in a proper English paper. I would have failed you too.

Well, I don't think they should have failed you, but honestly, it's English class. Learn to write properly.

Depending on what grade you are.....I dunno. I can understand why he/she would do that and I also can understand why someone would think that is fucking ridiculous. I suppose when it gets right down to it one word shouldn't be enough for an F.
