A three-part book series where twenty-four children are trapped in a hostile arena-like outdoor setting for the entertainment of fancy rich people in a place called the Capitol. Oh, and, while in that arena you are supposed to kill in the most brutal of ways and the last murderer standing wins.(: Ages ranging from twelve to eighteen, they are drawn by lottery to come to the Capitol - to be paraded around and pampered - then are sent to the place where twenty-three kids will die, and one will win for that year.

I don't know what's more disturbing about these books. #1.) The fact the author wrote about children killing children. #2.) They are all pampered and adored and then are shipped away to be slaughtered by one another. #3.) This is for the YA (young adult) reading range. #4.) How popular they are and how they glamorize murder.
Hunger Games Fan: I am soooo smart b/c i LOVE the Hunger Games!!!!!11

Normal Person: How could you love a book so much that basically promotes murder and involves kids killing other kids?

Hunger Games Fan: whtevr!!! You just don't understand theyre AMAZING!!!!!!!! so amazing they're for young ppl like me;p

Katniss Everdeen on Katniss Everdeen's Winning the Hunger Games TWICE: I shouldn't be alive, I shouldn't be alive. But, shit, am I glad I am!

Katniss on Being a Mockingjay and a Girl on Fire: It's hard at times. But, you know, as the symbol of only a book-long's rebellion - I gotta be strong and look tough, even though I barely did squat in the arena.

Peeta Mellark on Katniss Everdeen: I love her. I once had a crush on her, but now I'm sure I love her. What some bread? No? A cake it is, then.

Gale Hawthorne on Katniss Everdeen: She's f*cking awesome! She's going to kick some Tribute ASS! *after Games* I'm so disappointed!

A university course that has a competitive grading, so only a few select number of students can get A's despite their actual performance in the class. For example, a student could have worked to get a 93%, but because of an arbitrary decision the university has made they could get a B. These classes are not about learning or maximizing the potential of each student, they are about surviving and making sure your classmates fail.
Student #1: My friend Greg in your finance class was sick, can you send him a copy of your notes?

Student #2: Sorry man it's a hunger games course, I got to look out for myself.

"Me and my friends are going to check out every book in the library for this class, so no one else can study. It eat or be eaten in these hunger games classes bro."
