GM's thread about nothing (13 Viewers)

Is there anything in the world that you could post in here where some kind of "snob" wouldn't show up and tell you how wrong you have it?

I actually feel bad for the guy who tried to help out with the Papa John's code.

 
I'm not a big fan of generalizing entire groups of kids but it's hard to ignore the fact that in certain years you seem to get certain groups of kids.

Last year my 8th graders were noisy and social but worked quickly. A couple of years ago they were well behaved but needed a lot of extra one-on-one help. Some years you seem to have more discipline problems. Other years you get more academically gifted kids.

I've only had these kids for 5 days and already I'm noticing a trend.

Kid 1: I can't find Harriet Tubman in the index.

Me: Did you look under "T"?

Kid 1: No I looked under "H".

Me: Ahhh...remember we look people up in the index by last name.

Kid 1: But "H" comes before "T".

Me: Right but we don't need to worry about that. Just look the person up by their last name.

Kid 1: I'm confused.

Next class:

Me: So there were about 20,000 people in Pompeii and 5000 in Herculaneum. We think about 16,000 people died.

Kid 2: Did they all die?

Me: Ummm...all of the people in both cities or all of the 16,000 that died?

Kid 2: Yeah.

Me: Maybe I can say it a different way. Out of the 25,000 people in the area...16,000 of them died. Got it?

Kid 2: Ah, OK. :raises hand:

Me: Yes?

Kid 2: How many of them lived?

Me: :lmao: I don't teach math.

Later

Me: Alex? What's your 3-digit class number?

Alex: I don't have one.

Me: I gave it to you yesterday. You were here, right?

Alex: Yeah.

Me: OK, what book are you using?

Alex: Number 15

Me: That means your number is 415 because you're in period 4.

Alex: What's the 15?

Me: I just did it alphabetically. You're the 15th person on the list.

Alex: Oh, OK. I was wondering why you had me write down '415' on my History folder yesterday.

Me: So you wrote it down and you remembered to get book 15 today?

Alex: Yeah but when you said '3-digit' I thought you meant it started with a '3'.

Trust me...I think that all the time.At least 4 times a day I have to stifle the urge to say "You're f-ing with me, right?"
 
Holy crap Red Sox :excited:

Special thanks to the Dodgers for giving the Sox a chance to get out from underneath some bad contracts AND some decent prospects! :thumbup:

Can you get Gates?
 
Bottom line:

[*]With great inseason management, we think you have about a 99 percent chance of making the playoffs.

[*]With good inseason management, we think you have about a 90 percent chance of making the playoffs.

[*]With average inseason management, we think you have a 86 percent chance of making the playoffs.

 
This thread full of guys sexting their wives/girlfriends is pretty funny.

Ignore the first two posts as they're a link to a pay messageboard. The good ones are pasted into the thread I linked.

Also, Yuke is having a first birthday party tomorrow, and AngryWife has gone insane with decorating from things that she found on Pinterest. That seems like crazy effort for a kid that is never going to remember the party and probably won't understand what's going on while it happens. My suggestion that she just print the photos off Pinterest, put them in his baby book and tell him that they were from his party did not go over well.

We just went through this. Two good months of planning and a house festooned in Cookie Monster which bewildered the little guy. You'd think my wife was studying for the LSAT the way she prepared for it.

My wife shopped for hours for a "coming home onesie" Pretty sure a year from now we're going to have Cookie Monster himself in the corner of my kitchen.
 
I just traded Sam Bradford for a second round pick next year and picked up Vereen (first name unknown) from the Pats.

:championship:

Need to get Gates.

I only count 3 maybe 4 keepers. You should really follow the Tim leagu for tips on how to draft.Tanner, I don't think I could make it through those kids without grabbing one and slamming their head into the desk. They don't wear helmets do they??

We walked into a boutique toy store a few weeks ago where they had a giant Cookie Monster, regularly $150 ( :lmao: ), for the special everything-must-go price of $50. Naturally, we HAD to buy this. But then there was his good buddy Big Bird sitting there all alone. The owner is like "$75 for both." You know the rest.

You both agreed the $75 was ridiculous, walked out, and bought a new bunsen burner?
