Possibly the gayest class on earth after 7-8th grade (Pre grade 7-8 VERY useful class). A class where one has to over analysis ever little detail in a play, story, essay etc.
Marks are solely based off what kind of teacher you have. You can have the teacher that really doesn't care that much and will give a mark of 80%+ for doing jack shit. Or you can have the kind of teacher that over analysis' ever sentence of your essay and as a result will reward you with a shitty mark (eg 60%) Even though you spent hours on the essay.
The final years of English (grade 11&12 especially 12)is, for some reason, the most important class to take and is technically the only "true" prerequisite for university or college (being that you can get into uni/college programs with only English and no need for math or the sciences and every uni/college program requires English).
In conclusion, English class can either be a walk through the park or hell on Earth for 5 months. Either way it requires you to over analysis ever little detail in plays, essays, stories etc. and make up bullshited thesis' and thematic statements that no one gives a RATS ASS ABOUT. It will usually become your most hated class (doesn't matter what teacher you have) because of the overall stupidity of it and the lack of actual knowledge gained.

Average teenage male after reading Hamlet in English class:
ATM: Wow, that was the gayest piece of shit I've ever read...
High School English teacher conversation:
Class A student: Hey, what'd you get on your essay, I got 90%
Class B student: 60% and I spent 4 hours on it I have a HARDASS teacher
Class A student: LOL I spent an hour and got 90%, I think it's because my teacher doesn't care though lol....
After 5 months of grade 12 English:
Bob: Hey what do you learn in English this year
Fred: Nothing, just like the previous years.

probably the most useless class in school. analyzing sentences and poems and crap for no good reason. all you can really do with your knowledge about it is say "i know what a sentence is" and "i know that shakespeare wrote some crap".

Please for the love of god I don't want to read the fucking twelfth night and write an essay about it. When will I use Shakespeare verses in life or to a degree that involves STEM, and even if I have to read old writer can we read better playwright then the overrated Shakespeare. Fuck You English class
Me: Can I Plz Read this non- fiction book
English Teacher: NO
Me: Well Fuck You
Me: Can I Plz Read this non- fiction book
English Teacher: NO
Me: Well Fuck You

Random Student: "My friend died from insomnia after he wrote ten 100-page essays in one week."
Cool Math teacher: "Dude, I think that's called 'death by English class'."

she is so gorgeous that you can't say anything to her face. you don't look at her directly as if she were the sun. she enjoys things you find interesting, yet you have a hard time talking to her. she bumps into you, you say sorry, but she keeps walking and you're left feeling a bit disappointed. she's smart, funny, and has an edge but also looks so soft that you want to swim in her eyes and braid her hair. you yearn for her touch, but you've hardly spoken to her all year. if you do talk to her, you can't tell where her heart lies. you ask yourself how you can determine if she likes you. you never will know unless you ask, thus you perish.
you: oh my god the girl in my english class is so gorgeous i can't anything to her face, 'cause look at that face
friend: lol dude just talk to her
you: ok but that requires words coming out of my lips to form coherent sentences
friend: it's not that hard, look here she comes
you: guess i'll die
friend: then perish
friend: lol dude just talk to her
you: ok but that requires words coming out of my lips to form coherent sentences
friend: it's not that hard, look here she comes
you: guess i'll die
friend: then perish

English Class refers to the act of Sex . Specifically endearing sex, love making, if you may. It's a term used as a lay-low around other peers. It may or may not include BDSM, Kinks, and a TON of making out.
