Get this, when I was in high school we had to write an essay in World Geography about who our hero was from history. Our teacher proceeded to tell us the story of a former student who had written about Edgar Allen Poe. Well, this teacher made his student change his hero because he felt that was a horrible hero, with the opium addiction and what not. At the end of the story he told us that the guy was killed a few years later. Now WHAT does that have to do with having Poe as his hero I ask you?!? Absolutely nothing!!!!!! BUT, according to this teacher, his hero was the reason that all of this happened. What a crock of shit. I gave that teacher hell for the entire year after that.
