A phrase used by parents of, or by, a failing student when referring to their shitty grades. Usually because they refuse to admit that said student is a lazy bum who won't study. Usually these students are "special".
Mr. Lala: Well, Mrs. Smith, to be frank, Billy has a 28% in my chemistry class.

Mrs. Smith: What??! That's some load of crap, Mister! I mean, look at his textbook! It's useless! It's a useless textbook!

Mr. Lala: ...But he doesn't even pay attention in class. And all of his homework is incomplete.

Mrs. Smith: I'll have your job for this!!
