1. Noun: A gigantic book used by evil schools that force innocent high school kids to the death by the 2,930 pages of extremely small print, extremely long paragraphs, and extremely boring entries from authors ranging from Ralph Waldo Emerson to Anne Sexton (who ever the hell they are). Can also be called satan or the devil.

A scene in entertainment that is unrealistic and shouldn't even happen in their own universe, like when a character survives getting shot a bunch of times just to move on the story.

1. A thing that certain people consider "very scary" when used by one who's typing is all over the place, usually very poor grammar, capitalization, spelling, and more, then suddenly changes to the proper way of typing/writing.

2. Obviously learned in many of your English classes, assuming you didn't skip.

3. Very rare. Just rare. Like, "discovered yesterday and it was scary as fuck," rare.

The very foundation of death. We stand in accord to the tintinnabulation that sounds over us as we inheritiely die from the overwhelming pressure and the aptitude of the exam to make us wish for an early death and making a sepulcher to commemorate our time suffering in that class. Getting a 5 is the aspiration of everyone, yet due to the overwhelming workload we inherit, we are bound to just sit and solicit to the gods we deem holy. I wish you luck my fellow students, not only will we overcome this year but we will all get 5’s (except Carlos, Zareen, Zack, Osama and basically anyone with a pulse in this planet cuz the exam is f****** hard :///). Let’s hope for a bright year AP literature students.
(Shoutout to: Audii, Bayan, Anam, Zareen, Zack, Carlos, Indy, Susan, Sarah, Rama and Yara)
