Cody
FOUND by Natalie in Plano, Texas
I found this note on the floor of my high school.
Mary in Allen, Texas
I really wish you'd said it was found on the floor of your elementary school. The spelling and grammar in this note pain me. Oh well, I'll just claim Allen's superior to Plano and try to feel good about the state of public education. I'm really just lying to myself, though.

Oh my gawd, like, so totally! Did you see that one thing about, like, that stuff?? It was, like, so cool and stuff. Yaw.

*rolls eyes* I think someone needs to be watching the Grammar & Spelling Channel more than anything. And just *what* is "afroken"??

I read this in my head with an Engrish accent, what with the bad grammar and the fact that the L's in "really" look like R's and all.

I don't understand the last part. What's afraken? African?

I'm not in denial
Lovely evidence of " no child left behind " .

afroken = African?

I love that the first sentence seems to be a statement, but has a question mark at the end.

What's History Chanel? Is that a perfume or something? Afroken!

Love,
Matt

What was Cody listening to? Who is Afro Ken? Are there homeless people in Plano? Who does Cody love? I think Natalie needs to find more facts for us.

Being from Plano and all, I'd wager that Cody has been hitting the heroin too hard, and it's affected hs brain.

It really bums me out when people spell- and grammar-check Finds. These aren't submissions to an essay contest! Cody doesn't even know his note is here... and I think it's remarkable that a young person would rather be watching the History Channel. At least this wasn't a note about Date My Mom on MTV!

Don't you know! History Chanel is a kind of exhotic perfoome made in Afroka. You know, that big contonint that has lotz of Afrokans living on it.

Ah, publoc schools are th BEST(

You can't really believe Cody likes the History Channel--he's being IRONIC!
+ January 09, 2007 11:35 AM +
Peter in Broad Ripple, IN
Volo is right, Cody thinks the History Channel is a fate worse than annoying music. I dig that Cody sums up his logic with "so" and total non-sequiturs.

Curious in Charlotte, NC
I love the question mark after the first sentence. It makes me think? Like, that Cody might be a girl? 'Cause that's how so many teenage girls talk? Afroken = Afrikaans?

I think everyone owes this kid an apology. Cody IS right! Afro Ken is better than homeless people (and pretty much everything else)! Thanks Alyson in the Rock for posting the link that cleared all of this up. Up with Afro Ken, down with all the Cody-haters!

This find is like a koan. Trying to make sense of it sends my brain into complete oblivion.

I have 5 nephews from age 5 to 20-something who love to watch History Channel. They are the real deal!

There’s nothing wrong with the History Channel.

there is a little-known "afro ken"cartoon character, this little dog with an afro, although i doubt thats what cody meant.

This morning I read it as Al Fra(n)ken and tried to figure it out all through my European history class.

Alyson in Round Rock, you win. That made everything awesome.

Sarah in Dallas, TX:
You made my day.
Ever heard of the "Plano Clap"?
Perhaps that's just a joke up here in Allen, but I doubt it.

Homeless people are cool, a great culture indeed. I love watching Afro-Ken.

Alyson in Round Rock, you do win.
Combination of Afro Ken and fluffy things surprises many people LOL. Double find today! Do follow the link!

Afro Ken be roolin', yo! Respekt!

Nicky in Minneapolis, MN
Is it wrong that the first time I looked at this I thought that Afroken was supposed to be Al Roker? Because Al Roker is as cool as the homeless people?

obviously Mary from Allen has never set foot in the high school there...plenty of kiddies who do the 'plano clap' there
