gerisullivanBack when I was in elementary school, we were graded on "citizenship" as well as the usual subjects of math, English, geography, and such. A good citizenship grade didn't mean you knew anything more about U.S. citizenship than a bad grade did. It was really just a reflection of how easy it was for the teacher to deal with you, how cooperative you were, and how well you adapted to being in school. There were no tests, quizzes, or worksheets that measured your citizenship knowledge; your grade was whatever the teacher's gut suggested it should be. It always seemed like a dumb, unimportant, arbitrary grade to me.
Fast forward 45 years, and we have memes and quizzes to answer the question those grade school report cards never did. Tonight I found my way to this one via![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

I'm pleased, and surprised. I guessed on a couple, and figured I'd missed at least one of them. Sure, they're very basic, but the devil's in the details, don'cha know?
