Jokes and Racism - In Our Iranian Culture
This article intends to highlight aspects of our Joke-Telling as a hobby. We tend to tell jokes, while we ignore the fact that the characters i those jokes are being the real people we have among ourselves. We tend to tell jokes about certain groups with various accents, about women, about children, and those more vulnerable. These jokes only perpetuate the notion of segregation, latent and obvious racism, and discrimination. We need to stop this behavior.

Cursing 'Thees' and 'Thous' - Why I Used to Flunk Literature
Don't you just hate studying Literature? When I was in high school (and even after) this subject was the absolute plague for me, together with similar subjects like Creative Writing and History. This was the only subject that required me to read hundreds of pages of the densest prose and dozens of lines of the most confusing poetry ever invented by man, woman or whatever beast I thought brought this plague into existence.
