i think it's all malarkey. i never ever ever had a school supply list but somehow i still knew i needed pens and pencils and binders. i knew when i needed a calculator and when i needed a protractor. i knew when i needed scissors. when i ran out of something, i got more. if i was lacking a needed supply, a teacher told me, and i bought it. if a teacher didn't like the color of ink in my pen or the cover on my book, he said so and (after bitching about "the man" to my friends) i switched.
homogenized, ultra-pasteurized grade d education thinking that a list of crap makes a damn bit of difference.
