dream camp counselor job? wtf! its a joke come on

[bedders]

i think it means the camp counselor job (ie working at an American summer camp) was a dream job...

[mharky]

i dont see whats so wierd about that. if your teacher gave you millions of homework which you had to do over the summer you would be raging to.

For fear of vilification by the tabloid press, I've been going easy on the spelling/grammar nazi-ism of late. Given a bit of thought (longer than perhaps I'd like) I can usually work out what you're trying to say, but here I'm confused.

Do you mean "raging to [get the homework done]", or "raging too" [raging in the same way as our litigious American friend]?

i don't see whats so wierd about that. if your teacher gave you a large amount of homework, which you had to do over the summer holidays, you would be raging also.

Thanks for clearing up what Mharky meant. Maybe you could look through all his future posts to clear up any future ambiguities.

But it could be interpreted a different way:

What's weird about [getting a large amount of homework over the holidays]?
If that were to happen to me, I would be raging to [get that homework done]

I guess that would depend on the meaning of "raging". There is one sense in which it means "A burning desire; a passion".
