Nah . . . thing is the kids taking exams just get brighter and brighter with each passing year.
That's why they brought in the A* grade, because everyone is so much more intelligent these days. It couldn't be the ridiculous improvement-target driven culture of education making exam results increasingly meaningless.
Never - if that were the case then surely universities would complain about undergraduates not knowing shit about shit. Actually, er . . .

Its still all shit to me. Straight A*s mean fuck all.
Baffles me how people scoff at me when im a 2:1 in electrical and elctronic engineering cos they got 1:1 in history or some shit!
At the end of the day im doing something to get a job in the area im studying, not to work in a bank.
Shows you what a C/D GCSE student can do eh?

Children get presents. But instead of bringing elves Sinterklaas brings black slaves . And he is not from the north pole but from Spain. Gotta go.
Santa Claus is just a cheap rip off from Sinterklaas, the Dutch introduced Sinterklaas in the US were it evolved to Santa Claus who is now a christmas figure. So in fact we buy a lot of presents for Sinterklaas and three weeks later we do the same shit just because the Americans fucked up our tradition and moved it to Christmas. My wallet isn't happy with those fellas, we tried to learn them some of our traditions and a couple of hundred years later we're ending up spending shitloads of money because of it.
