You have GOT to be shitting me!

My friend's son is 12ish. He is in Catholic school. On his summer reading list? SNOOKI's fucking book.

I can't. I just can't.

[themysteriouswife]

What the mother fucking fuck?

[simplyinpenguin]

No. Just no. How is that supposed to educate him? Does he have to read it or is it an option on the list?

I'm praying as a cautionary tale?!
Not sure if it's an option or required.

[wambam]

Required reading list or on a list of suggestions?

Either way, that's fucked up.

[joshlyman]

No no no no no.

This is a sign of the apocalypse, yes?

[demelza]

That has to be a joke and they accidentally left it on there.

I'm surprised a Catholic school is ok with it, considering all that Snooki has done pre-book and post-book. Maybe they tried to toss in a couple "fun" books amidst "Animal Farm", "Johnny Tremaine", "Lord of the Flies".

[blueshirt2003]

What?
I like Snooki but her book won't be kid appropriate.
It's a fiction story about everything that happens on Jersey Shore basically.
There is a lot of sex and partying.

Surely there is a middle ground between Lord of the Flies and THIS.

[simplyinpenguin]

Oh there is. A GREAT deal more than Snooki's book. I'm trying to think of a reasonable explanation for the inclusion of Snooki's book, without resorting to "possessed".

[iamgrace]

Seriously? No. This can't be real.

[jenna]

That's awful.

My 12 year old was at the library, and checked out this book:

www.amazon.com/TTFN-Ta-Ta-Now-Internet-Girls/dp/0810992795

To ensure he's making good choices, we always look over his book selections at the store or library, and I didn't get a chance to skim this one until we were in the library parking lot getting ready to leave. You'd better believe I made him return the book - after noticing a section discussing pierced labias.

[margotmacomber]

This isn't real.  If it were, and I saw that on my kids list best believe every mother fucker that even worked for the school is getting a phone call/email.  

[FastHands]

I'm hoping someone hacked her phone. She is a very serious/literal person so I don't think it was a joke if it did come from her.

I swear to god I want to like this post again but I'll just keep laughing and say thanks.

[Booze Raccoon]

Maybe they are just trying to get the kids to read ... anything.  (Reaching!)

[textbookcase]

Wut.

lol!

[bonquiqui]

Next thing you know they will serve the kids wine.  ahahahaha  I crack myself up

[karmasabiotch]

Even in a non religious school I can't understand how this would be a good choice.

[lolly]

Wow, the new pope really is trying to make some changes.

[Jalapeñomel]

So did she phone the school?
