Now I have nothing but the greatest respect for farmers. Both of my parents grew up on farms. But I had no desire to be a farmer myself. It was more than that, though. In smaller communities around Wisconsin, FFA is just a given.
Every student joins and participates, because that's where every student was headed.
Around Green Bay, though, FFA was a joke, and a nasty one. Future Fuckheads of America. Fucking Faggots and Assholes. FFA, to put it bluntly, was for retards. The classroom itself was even located on the delicate fringes of Washington's special ed wing.
