Maryland school board removes the letter L from teaching due to it looking like a gun

[Figong]

You've really got to be fucking kidding me.. seriously? They're also proposing that American Sign Language G gets changed too, since that too is "too close" to looking like a gun shape.

What the hell?? This is a april fools joke.

It has to be..the lawyer featured in the article has the same name as the lawyer on the TV comedy, Arrested Development. Bob Loblaw?? Come on, no chance that's really someones name.

Actually, according to LinkedIn, there's 25 guys with that name - I'd say plausible at this time.

Oh jesus i hope this is a joke. lol

Cuz what do they plan on calling MaryLand or BaLtimore if L is taken out?

Or a real gun, for that matter.. Instead of the Glock, it'd be a Gock. I seriously hope it is too, but this has spread like wildfire and has hit over 50 pages, in 8 different languages. If it is a prank, it's an elaborate one that took coordination.

I had this epic alarm clock as a kid. I often used it as an outlet for my waning oral fixation. You can call me a clocksucker, but please mind the consonant count. cn

A do-it-yourselfer named Alice
used a dynamite stick for a phallus.
They found her vagina
in North Carolina
and shreds of her anus in Dallas.
