I need your help writing a letter, guys.

I'm a high school substitute teacher. Last year I subbed for an English teacher who is widely renowned as a good teacher, but also the biggest cunt in the school district. Shes rude to her students and to other staff with no regard for manners.

To top it all off, her desks are absolutely filthy. A -single- stack of papers 8 inches high typically covers her entire desk in an overflowing disorganized pile. Because of this, I had to move some of the papers to the side so I'd have the space to write and leave her sub notes. I find out the next day that she was absolutely seething over it and she told all of her students and many teachers about her menopausal breakdown.

I'm subbing for her today, and she left this.(pic related) I heard she likes to write complicated and facetious emails to the rest of the staff. Help me write this cunt a superb apology letter in a similar style.

Ive written "Without ambiguity is it ostensible that this correspondence appear lilliputianly excusatory." so far.

Any ideas for what comes next?

If a teacher is going to miss class, it is absolutely their responsibility to make sure the person watching the class has all of the tools they need to do their job.

This lol. Also the one you wrote is cringigly bad. And not just because I and others don’t understand your subtlety and literary brilliance. Real talk it’s clunkily executed. It doesn’t read like something written by some genius literati standing above the antlike plebeian masses scurrying on the ground below. Nor does it read like a charming but knowing jab at her for her regular pretentiousness. It just reads, as someone mentioned, like a try hard paper written by the self-diagnosed “smart” grade ten kid who just found a thesaurus.

Sorry.

I don't personally get any of the emails. My GF teaches theatre here and they sometimes work on Shakespeare stuff together for the kids, she's the one who told me about the emails. The letter thing was even partly her idea.

Also this wasnt meant as me trying to write some sort of grandmaster above the plebian masses thing, it was meant as a letter designed to made her feel like an ass with a bunch of big words in a complicated sequence disguising what is said so I don't get in trouble. If this was anything more than a joke I would have just wrote "Fuck you" on her desk in sharpie and been done with it.

Let's imagine that she is as terrible as you describe, why would you write a letter to someone who already views you with disdain? Forgive me if I'm wrong but this act of desperation appears to be reminiscent of that one child in junior high who made fun of someone constantly and everyone hated - you being the child in this instance. Everyone already hates this woman, so you say, so why not bring this 'diabolical' scheme (in reality the letter you sent was simply awful in its execution) to the other faculty members?

A substitute mocking a good teacher could be a on one of those terrible jokes comedians say on the graveyard shift. Focus on you're elf. If you spent half as much time focusing on you than her and others, who knows, you may be a famous writer (although I doubt it from the writing you provided)

Here is your reply:

Before I made thy acquaintance, I must divulge that I was completely aghasted by the rumors, and from a woman no less, how awful! Yet upon reading the note that was graciously left to provide me with an insight into the student expectations, your learning style, and how I may learn from these to provide the best teaching experience, I realised the lack of information on these 3 subjects and I must admit I was disappointed. Nevertheless, I must thank you for leaving me in this position because it provided me with a fantastic learning opportunity. I noticed there were some documents on your desk strewn haphazardly, and to repay your generosity, I have attempted to provide a little structure here too.
I hope you're feeling fantastic on your return and well rested.

If you're gonna try writing like a pretentious dickhead, at least study the form. There is a subtle art to top-tier world salad, and your writing falls flat imo. I would expect an english teacher to have plenty of experience with word-spam and vocab-flexing, but you disapoint me.
Your work is the literary equivalent of using google translate to write spanish poetry. You have to discover and embrace the nuances of your medium to write something truly accomplished. The dickhead style opens tons of doors for variation in structure and pacing, and you just barrelled onwards without even acknowledging them.
