Too Believable

Scrappleface's jest on a study of the relationship of math scores and self-esteem is far too believable. He needs to make up something they wouldn't actually say at the NEA. Here's a taste:
“It just doesn’t add up,” said an unnamed NEA spokesman. “We’ve spent three decades of the last 20 years teaching kids that their self-esteem and happiness are unrelated to their academic competence. The overwhelming minority of them now feel really happy about math.”

Read the whole thing for a chuckle (or a heavy sigh).
