What's REALLY Being Taught In Government Schools (1 Viewer)

MY kid has gotten in trouble for reading at school

if it is math class and you are supposed to be listening and are instead reading another book you are doing something wrong.

 
Can't read it. Having trouble taking the source very seriously.
the op is wack

all this is is funny detentions for kids, almost all of them deserved a detention and deserved to be treated like folk heroes by their peers
What's "wack" about it?

I posted a link to slide 12, which is a letter informing a parent that his kid was given detention for daring to point out that his teacher is an imbecile.

 
Behind every good man there is a woman, and that woman was Martha Washington, man, and everyday George would come home, she would have a big fat bowl waiting for him, man, when he come in the door, man, she was a hip, hip, hip lady, man.

 
Jack White, I've known a lot of Rothbard type libertarian/anarchists in my life, and many of them, despite having some ideas I could never agree with, were the nicest people. But-

There's something wrong with your presentation. It's not your ideas, as wrong as some of them are to me. It's you, at least it's you on this board. I can't express specifically what it is that is so repellant about your posts, but you'll have to trust me, they are.

 
Lol at getting the detention for saying "That's what She Said" after the student made an innocent comment of "you need to push it in further". What else are you supposed to say when someone says that?

I can't do it captain! The irony! The irony is too strong! Losing thrust...core melting down...Eject! Eject!
 
for yelling "that's mahogany" when student dropped book on desk :lol:

agree with Tim. if OP had just titled this something about ridiculous detentions... people might actually read the link. but given the OP and the title- I sure as hell had no interest in clicking that link until somebody else explained what was going on.

 
Only a paranoid delusional turns a link about doofus kids doing doofus things into an anti-government screech. Good work, Spock.

I didn't see the other slides. The slide I linked to was not about a doofus kid, it was about a doofus teacher in a doofus school run by a clan of doofuses.

I have no problem with that.

I will say, however, that only some of my posts are libertarian/anarchist in nature.

Most of my posts are about beer, chicks, TV shows, the NBA and people struggling with the prospect of putting their pets down. Nothing the average person would find repellant.

Funny, I can remember getting detention several times for the exact same thing.

As a math teacher, I don't personally care if they read, as long as they don't interrupt others and get their work done. The problem is that they'd rather play on their phones, which gets taken away and given to the dean, or they face a short suspension. Is it perfect? No, but cell signal jammers are illegal, otherwise I'd have one.

Kid was given detention because he dared to tell his teacher she was wrong for stating that a kilometer is longer than a mile.
Hate to break it to you, but teachers never like being shown up in class. I got in trouble in the 2nd grade for taking an encyclopedia to school to prove something the teacher had said was wrong--and that was in 1960.

if you don't pay those dog schools on time, they roll by your house and shout out the secret word that causes your dog to go nuts and kill you.

Whomever did #23 on those slides there should get a medal.

Yeah, I almost always resist the urge to correct grammar. After all, it would be a full-time job around here.

But there's just something about people using the word whomever -- especially incorrectly -- that compels me to call them out.

Would you care if a student slept in class if he was consistently a straight A student who always tested in the 99th percentile?

Yeah but the 40% of your posts that are repellent (nice spelling there you dolt), are exponentially so.

Sure, because every typo makes one a dolt.

Thanks for the compliment, though. You've always been one of my biggest fans, and it means a lot to me.

You're the mindless assgoblin correcting grammar, then fumbling the spell check in the same exact thread. Maybe you should spend more time critiquing your own flaws. :thumbup:

I know how to spell. It's a typo. Plus, I'm not perfect. I suppose you are, though.

Maybe so.

Regardless, I know I can always count on you to show up with your name-calling routine.
