Hello.
I think you're pretty neat. Thank you for stopping by.
So dumb things... If you wanna take the title as a complaint, you'll have a lot of ammunition to prove your point.

A lot of people can certainly get behind silly, but pointless doesn't usually have buyers in the education marketplace. Distractions and wastes of time are things that we're supposed to minimize and ferret out.
But maybe they're
