“Ms. Lacey, can we please have a desk change? Zoë is constantly intelligence-mogging me in front of Janelle. I know Janelle cares about smarts and stuff and Zoë is just too quick with it. To clarify: I am a feminist, and I think it’s great that Zoë has practically memorized the grade 6 curriculum. I just think Janelle might let me take her to the dance and I can’t have this jeopardizing that opportunity for me. Sorry, to clarify again: keep me and Janelle beside each other but move Zoë. Please. Appreciate you.”
