I am far behind and I really need help with this unit assignment so I can move on to work on the rest. I have 2 weeks of school left and many other classes I have to do so I don’t want to hear your half ass excuses about what it was like to live without computers and that I should do my own homework, I’m stressed, I’m on wits end, and I’m liable to go postal so either answer or keep your fucking mouths SHUT!

Thank you.
