Tuesday Morning Experience

I didn't, but maybe I should have. Read on:

Though my experience yesterday was not as eventful as Chris’, I will post it regardless. I was in class and we were working on a mini group project on our computers. I wasn’t sure about the answers to one of the problems, so I told my partners “I’m feeling ______” in regards to what I thought was the answer. Keep in mind that I wasn’t really sure and also, my partners weren’t giving me back adequate output, so let’s say I repeated that phrase about five times. Yeah, maybe I was a bit obnoxious, but the bitch next to me called me out! She said in a condescending bitch-slapping tone: “Stop saying you’re feeling it. That’s the right answer.” An advocate for non-violent approaches to resolving conflict, I carried on, but my group and I, we were visibly thrown off by her extemporaneous comment.
