A baffling medical condition caused by overexposure to the Emmy nominated hit show starring Michael C. Hall.
This debilitating disorder affects people of all age, race, gender and sexual orientation and is most common in those who neglected to watch episodes when they actually aired on Showtime. Most victims instead chose to watch all 42 episodes at once in a short window of time on a Mac or a PC. Initial symptoms include nausea and vomiting, but can lead to more serious conditions such as Dexter Episode Viewing Remorse. Call your doctor right away if DEVR or any attributed symptoms persist beyond 24 hours.
"Ok, well it looks like I'll get started on this Dexter phenomenon everyone is talking about"...
(Two Days Later)
"Ok, well season one and two were wonderful and now I'm ready for season three"...
(24 Hours Later)
"Ok, well now I'm officially caught up with the show"..
"I guess I'll just have to wait for each new episode to air on television each week"...
(Beginning Stages of Dexter Episode Viewing Remorse (DEVR)
"FUCK! I JUST CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE! BAD THINGS ARE GONNA HAPPEN MAN! BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO KEEP WATCHING EPISODES BACK TO BACK TO BACK TO BACK AND NOW I GOTTA WAIT A FUCKING WEEK?! FUCK THIS SHIT! I CANT WAIT! I GOTTA KNOW WHAT THE FUCK TRINITY IS UP TO MAN! WHAT THE FUUUUUUUUUCK!!!!
(Nearly all hope lost, desperately needs help at this point)

The only all girls, Pre-K through 12 school in Rhode Island.
Pretty much every where you go out in public, you see someone you know that goes to Bay View, is a parent or grandparent of a Bay View student, went to Bay View at some point in their life, or knows Bay View as their "sister school"- aka, the Hendricken boys.
Bay View puts on a kick-ass show, called "Manhattan at the Bay" or better known to the students as cabaret. Everyone in the state of RI either has seen this show, or knows about it.
Bay View also offers every sport that a girl can play, and basically beats every team in the state, whether they're girls teams or not.
St. Mary Academy Bay View hallway conversations go like this:
Girl 1: OMG, ROBERT PATTINSON CUT HIS HAIR!
Girl 2: NO WAY! well, why can't vampires have short hair? I mean, vampires can cut their hair, what's the big deal?!
Girl 1: Yeah, that's true, he still looks good.

The school with 99% white people. The school has all fuckboys named either Josh or Alex. The sluts, I mean girls, I take that back I do mean sluts are all named either Lindsey or Jessica. It is full of a bunch of Republican pot heads with no culture living off of their parent’s money.
That kid is white and racist, ohhh he must be from Mounds View High School

Americans are taught from early on in school that World War II was all about Pearl Harbor and that "we" went in to Europe and kicked ass, and then had no choice and blew up two entire cities in Japan. And then everything was perfect for everyone!
The REALITY - The United States sat back while every one of its most important allies suffered brutality. Germany was taking over Europe, bit by bit. The had ALL of Europe basically in their grip (along with Italy and their gang) except for the few neutral countries (who they marched right through anyway) and Great Britain, which eventually had no choice but to just sit and defend itself because it was vulnerable from every direction. While city after city in England and Scotland was demolished, while thousands upon thousands of British citizens were blown to bits, burnt to death, or smothered, Americans said, 'nah, we'll wait thanks. But here's some bombs - you can pay us later." Finally when Roosevelt realized there was no choice but to enter the war (because the world was basically in shock that one of the only surviving superpowers, besides England, was sitting on their hands while the world was being taken over by three men) - he made sure that a big "event" would happen to throw American sentiment across the sea. So we had Pearl Harbor, and then all those fresh, well fed American soldiers took off to join the parched, injured, half-starved Allies.
Now cut to 2001. America gets attacked by an extremist group - not a government - and 3000 people tragically die. Bush decided to blame it on Iraq, as an impetus to bring them down for trying to assinate his fire (and because Iraq sits on a huge buttload of oil.) So when Bush cries out to the rest of the world to try to start World War III, a lot of countries, well, sat on THEIR hands. They remembered the millions of dead family members. They could still see the effects of the horrible bombing blitzes of World War II. They had seen TENS of thousands of civilians die in one night, or over a week, and just have to cope. America has been attacked on its own soil TWICE, and only once by a country. Someday we as Americans will learn the mistake our pseudo-government has made, because we are now the most hated nation on earth, and we have no excuse for it.
The American View of World War II is getting lost in time, because it didn't have much impact on any future generations, as it did in Europe and Asia, and every other country who fought for the length of the war.
The example isn't there - it's the lack of example. The United States does nothing to set an example anywhere, nor does it encourage its own citizens to think on a global level. It's all about US, USA, USA, USA. Scary stuff.

Bedok View Secondary School is a government co-educational secondary school located in southern Bedok, Singapore, within walking distance of Tanah Merah MRT station. Bedok View Secondary School is an excellent school. They have teachers who put their best foot forward in their effort to bring out the best in their students. As a student myself, I feel that Bedok View teachers have to give a great amount of kindness, guidance and care to their students. Having left Bedok View, I feel I had transformed from an unmotivated and directionless student to a hardworking student who aims high. Bedok View teachers have inspired me to reach my goals and achieve my dreams.
"Do you miss Bedok View Secondary School?"
"Of course, I do!!"

Over-simplification of a complex subject.
An analogy would be for a star player who had a good game to claim all the credit after the game and put his team-mates down. Even if the star player did have a great game, all the other members of the team played well and did their part in winning the game -- and helping the star player deliver a great individual performance.
This sort of behaviour (i) is pointless because it relies on speculation about what might have happened had things been different and (ii) displays a real lack of grace, particularly when it is the star player that is doing it.
Many nations (large and small) came together to fight against tyranny during World War II, and their commitment to that cause and their sacrifice was enormous. This is what should be remembered -- not whether one nation's contribution or sacrifice was greater than the others.
"Man, listen to Lance Armstrong claim all the credit for winning 6 Tours de France in a row! You think he'd forgotten there were 8 other guys out there riding for him. What a poor sport! It's just like those guys who bang on and on about the American View of World Ward II"
Note -- this is a stupid example to illustrate the point. Lance is a true sportsman and would never behave this way.
