1
There she is!
2
Get it!
3
I know what you're thinking.
4
Why is Chanel the goddess of fashion and telling it like it is, being tormented by fatties with bad haircuts and horrible shoes?
5
What was the outrage that was so enormous
6
It brought students back to campus despite the fact that a serial killer is still on the loose.
7
If you believe it, it's all because I chose to pen the missive to end all missives.
8
Attention all useless Kappa sluts.
9
Congratulations!
10
If you're reading this, it means you've overcome the limitations of your tiny manatee brains and opened an email.
11
Now if you're asking yourself...
12
Dear Wade, I'm confused.
13
Is Chanel talking to me?
14
Am I a useless Kappa slut?
15
Simply ask yourself the following question aloud.
16
Is my name Chanel number three, Chanel number five, Chanel number six, or Sadie Williams?
17
Because if the answer to that is yes, then Felicitations Dismissive is for you.
18
So, do you all remember when we agreed to meet at the campus pool and kill the dean, and I got you all awesome new phones,
19
so that when it came time to meet, the phone would light up a certain color,
20
and when it did, you didn't even have to answer it.
21
You just had to come meet at the aforementioned pool.
22
And then, do you remember not coming to the pool,
23
despite me making it super easy for you by concocting a plan so simple that an orangutan could have figured it out.
24
Like, literally, a circus ape of moderate intelligence could have looked down at
25
the phone sticking out of the single pocket in the front of his comical lederhosen
26
and seen it light up
27
and used his short little legs to waddle over to his tiny motorized Shriner's car
28
and driven to the pool like I asked.
29
Do you remember any aspect of this super simple plan?
30
That's not a rhetorical question.
31
I'm literally asking if your tiny slut brains have the power to process any of my super simple orangutan level instructions
32
Because what I remember is that none of you showed up
33
Which meant I had to sit at that stupid pool by myself
34
Like a grade -A asshat with a bag full of enormous chains to drown
35
Dean Munch with and then have a super awkward combo with her Where I was like, oh, der, I just like bringing enormous chains to pools
36
and I looked like a total dip I don't entirely know what you whores could have been doing
37
that was more important than helping your chapter president drown a serial killer. But unless
38
that thing you were doing was getting enemas of pure liquid
39
gold at a new local establishment called Liquid Gold Colonics for Young Sluts.
40
Like if you were doing literally anything else.
41
You all should seriously consider doing the human race a favor and getting sterilized.
42
I'm not being facetious.
43
I literally think you should consider undergoing a surgical procedure to remove your ovaries, thereby sparing human race exposure to your DNA.
44
You four Trollops are the worst specimens of human beings ever born, and you all should really watch your backs.
45
Because if this serial killer targeting Kappa House doesn't chop off your heads,
46
I'm gonna do it so I can sell your tiny whore brain pants to science.
47
Sincerely, Chanel Oberlin.
48
So the next day, I went to get an extra hot pumpkin spice latte.
49
And more news coming from Wallace University where an alleged serial killer continues to stalk the campus.
50
And that's when it happened.
51
After an insane sorority rant from Kappa Kappa Tau President Chanel Oberlin, students have returned to...
52
Is President Obama a total div?
53
Chanel Oberlin's malicious...
54
The new face of hate, Chanel...
55
Weas in on liquid gold colonics.
56
No, no, no, no, no, no. ...Sex down...

69
Yes, I would like to comment to all the so -called mainstream media,
70
including weird websites that nobody has heard of who've used my name as clickbait, and to all the relentless,
71
unwashed hordes on Twitter who have taken every opportunity to mock and attack me mercilessly from the safety of their stained futons.
72
I offer the following heartfelt sentiment.
73
You can all say...

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
