"Listen UP! You're gonna be sorry if you miss this ANNOUNCEMENT! It's 8 o'CLOCK! If you're a parent you need to leave the FLOOR! CHILDREN - you can't have any FOOD, you can't have any WATER! No electronic deVICES! If I CATCH someone with them, I will TAKE it! CELL phones - if I come by and see it, I will TAKE it! Don't sit on my TABLES! It's only four hours! You're YOUNG! You can STAND! I'm gonna go address the judges now. We'll try to get you out of here as quickly as possible! Until then, have FUN! Thank you!"
While the science fair administrator concluded his necessary but unnecessarily abrasive introductory speech, the infrequently-voiced but ever-ready adolescent in me wanted to call out a derisive "fuuuuuck you".
I probably shouldn't have had that sugary orange juice this morning.
