Epigraphs: Cool or Drool

Epigraphs, I think, are really... I don't know.
I like them. They are my friend.
-- Mr. R
Period 2

Epigraphs, or should I say Epic-graphs (for indeed they are epic), are extremely important to today's society. Or are they? A very intelligent (although often grumpy) man once described them as "one of those cool nerdy things." It is a fact that they are both cool and nerdy, but are they worth the trouble? If you were to ask MLA, they would say, "No." In fact, they don't even recognize epigraphs as a thing. When asked to comment on this, Mr. R, an avid supporter for epigraph rights, simply said, "F you MLA." Wonderfully put in my opinion.

So, it's 8:10 on Wednesday morning and I should be in English class Period 2, but I'm not. I'm at home. I had an absolutely terrible time waking up this morning so I'm coming in a little later... But speaking of English, I'm absolutely terrified about reading my paper. Here are the reason's why:
-It sucks
-I was delirious when I wrote it so it makes no sense
-I start the first four sentences of the second paragraph off with "Marmelodov," very unprofessional
-I have some arguments in there that I'm am now almost sure are not only wrong, but completely off the mark

GOOD LUCK TODAY IN THE PLAY LC!! Even though by the time you read this you will have already performed.


"I love them, I love them, and I want you to love them too!" -Mr. R, on epigraphs of course
