At first I was just doing it so I didn't have to hear anyone complain. Because it was worth it to me to take the most assignments or the worst days just for blessed silence.
I do this all the time. And it's petty, but it's pettiness out of protection of my own sanity. "I will take on this horrible assignment so that when you complain about yours (because they will, even if the assignment is to go play with puppies during lunch, they'll complain about grass stains or getting scratched or something), I have a much worse assignment so STFU!"
is it wrong that I want to go somewhere with all of your "Sweet Valley High" books and a big huge blanket and not talk to anyone for 2 weeks?
Only if you don't let me keep the summer vacation bike ride one.
