Um, no. Copy-paste is perfectly acceptable for direct quotes and endnotes when a direct reference is wanted. It's the difference between me quoting you in this post and me just saying "@teh603". And textbooks can and should be used as a source in many situations, particularly in the English/Literature classes.
(Also, could we not conflate "stupid" with the job of counselor and/or principal? I realize you're being Snarky On The Internet, but there are really good counselors and principals out there and how is this 'joke' necessary or useful to a discussion on Apple?)
