GM's thread about nothing (23 Viewers)

Don't know where else to talk about this, so here it goes GMTAN -In one of my classes, my students' first papers are memoirs. I just read one from a black girl. She's by turns incredibly focused, talkative, and intelligent...then sleeps through the next class or inexplicably gets up and leaves halfway through.I just read her memoir and I can't decide if it's BS or not.She claims to have gotten pregnant at 17 with twins. The father was a good guy who had a full ride to NYU. One night they end up at some old high school friend's house and the end result is he gets killed, she stabs one person to death, shoots another twice in the head then empties the clip into his body, then she throws a knife at the last person, hits him, and watches as he falls down a staircase to die as well. So she killed three people and watched her BF get murdered. Then, to top it all off, she has a stress miscarriage and loses the twins. :eek: How the hell do you grade something like that? :unsure:
A+++++++++++++++ and then excuse her from doing any other assignments for the rest of the term.
 
what speaks french, has 2 thumbs and loves a good bj. I just know he'll #### up the punchline though... "That would be ME"
This joke only needs slight modification to be fourth grade approved."What speaks French, has 2 thumbs and loves a good PBJ?"

That's what my gut is telling me. She is a smart girl and the thing is decently written. If it's all bull, then I admire the effort. If it's all real, I admire the honesty and feel so effing bad I couldn't give anything less than an A.

I believe I paid about 5k for my ex's, it was appraised at about 8k and it fetched about $1800 on ebay. 1.2 carat platinum ring.
This is pretty much my situation. Mine's only 1 carat, but the other specs are superb.I'd take $1800 at this point.
I think it costs you about $30 or so iirc to sell with a reserve. You could take a shot or two with a higher reserve and reduce each time. :shrug:
Good call. Thanks.
Also, if you tell a story about how awful your ex is (or make one up) you might get a lot more views as it makes it's way around the interwebs.In fact, maybe just have 'zooks or GM write a back-story.
Or beg the jewelry store for a refund so you can pay the funeral expenses for your murdered fiancee'.
 
Good luck to you Keys..It will get better. Post updates here.Unrelated but related, howd the family chat go Bogart?
It went just like I thought it would. The 3 year old had no clue, and I didn't expect her to, but it was important that she was there. The 7 year old knew what divorce meant ("it means seperation") which I was a bit shocked by, but shouldn't be. He really didn't seemed all that concerned, he just wanted to get back to his DVD show. When I told him I would see him often (scouts, baseball, etc) and every other weekend we would go and visit Grandma and Grandpa for the whole weekend, he really liked that idea.The wife and I both stressed that we both loved him very much and that we just didn't want to be married anymore, so I was going to live somewhere else, just like other family that still loves him very much. My son really made it easy on everyone and was super cool. I know the emotions come later when reality sinks in.I could tell my wife really wanted some kind of Lifetime Movie scene where everyone breaks down and there is tons of drama, and when that didn't happen, I could tell she was disappointed. She spent the next hour outside on the phone while I watched Rangers/Cards and rocked my daughter to sleep.I move out on Friday.

I'll fess up and admit I totally missed the gag the first time through. This thing threw me into an irony-free zone.Also, peer review today. They have to bring their rough drafts to class. Class started 20 minutes ago and I just saw the girl in the library playing on the computer. I am ok with this. If she shows up 30 minutes late, I'm ok with that too.

Good luck, man. There are times it's going to suck. There are some good people around here that have been through rough divorces and have some solid advice, especially when it comes to kids. GM even recommended a book to me that I'd be happy to send you if you want to PM me your address.

Well, after four years of back and forth, she's finally moving out this weekend.Pretty brutal breakup from two people who have been through this before. I'm seeing a really nasty side of her. We live together, and we both love the apartment. She's fighting tooth and nail to stay here, which I surprisingly have very little problem with.The issue is that she wants to move out of this apartment (she can't afford it), and go to a studio in the same place. I said fine, but I'd like to stay here, since I love it too. Obviously, she thinks that would be weird - and so do I, but that's when it turns nasty.Because I just won't pick up and move out, she pouts, claims I've "won" and guilt trips several times, and that she's going to have to go live in the ghetto someplace. I would accept (begrudgingly) us living in the same complex over me having to find a different place to live.In the end, I think it's sad that's what's making her so nasty. Then, she makes a money grab - trying to get the money for the engagement ring, then money to move out, then stuff of mine she can sell. Then calls me selfish for saying no.Oh, well. Gave her until Sunday to move out, she agreed, and I'm going to a hotel. Life is...interesting.
Why would one of you staying be weird?Why would you both have to live in the same complex post-breakup? That's weird.
For the first question, it wouldn't. The fight is basically who stays. I can afford it. She can't. She can afford a smaller place in the same building.She made another money grab this morning. It was pretty brutal. Obviously I said no, so the name calling/etc. started again. Sad, really, because she's not like this. Something's snapped.
are you engaged or married? :unsure:And I am kind of on board with Thorn on strip clubs.
Engaged. The ring is in my bag.
Is this the same girl that you were engaged to before or is this a 2nd failed engagement? :confused: Either way, sorry man. Hang in there.

And on the opposite spectrum of things, I have a student who claims to have put together a powerpoint presentation to convince her parents she doesn't have to go to high school.

:lmao:

I want to ask her if she still has it saved. Could be some good shtick.

 
Don't know where else to talk about this, so here it goes GMTAN -

I just read her memoir and I can't decide if it's BS or not.

She claims to have gotten pregnant at 17 with twins. The father was a good guy who had a full ride to NYU. One night they end up at some old high school friend's house and the end result is he gets killed, she stabs one person to death, shoots another twice in the head then empties the clip into his body, then she throws a knife at the last person, hits him, and watches as he falls down a staircase to die as well. So she killed three people and watched her BF get murdered. Then, to top it all off, she has a stress miscarriage and loses the twins.

:eek:

How the hell do you grade something like that? :unsure:

ETA: I forgot to mention the murders were kinda self-defense. These people broke into the house. They brought the gun she eventually used to shoot one of them. And since she's in my class, I imagine the courts agreed with that. She doesn't mention serving any time. Just being mentally unstable for awhile.
Really? :mellow:

:goodposting: Is her pseudonym Jason Bourne?

 
Many years ago I had this student that was really off. Just a strange kid. One day he goes up to this other teacher and tells her "look at this picture my grandpa took of me". He hands her a snapshot of him standing in the driveway of his grandfather's house holding a gigantic handgun probably a .44 mag. The kid was just holding the gun with the barrel pointing up and this blank look on his face.

The first thing I thought of when I saw the photo was this.

The kid ended up giving the photo to the teacher "No...really...I WANT you to have it". From then on I made sure I was that kid's favorite teacher.

My ex isn't even in dharmapunk's class.
 
I gotta say, it's a little concerning that I know few if any happy guys who are engaged or recently married. The friend whose wedding was my fiance and I's real first like date 2 years ago has already left his wife . . . .

If my notebook is accurate, there's no way you should be marrying this woman.
 
PS what is the go-to cover story when cornholing? I don't think I want to tell one of my clients that this is my funny friend from the internet. :unsure:
I've used "we met at church" for dates I met online. People generally get the idea...being that I only go to church when someone dies. Not sure when it's a man/man.
try explaining to people why there's an old hippie you don't know staying at your house.
:lmao: :lmao: :lmao: Now take this, and explain it TO YOUR KIDS!

96% of the crazy was related to me saying I was not moving from my location/job after pretty much saying I'd be willing to. Since then she has moved across the state and our living situation has been good to go.

Looks really good. Tried to get GM to go see it in Portland, but he was more comfortable declining and then making fun of me about it later.
Oh I don't care if the ghost of Gene Siskel popped out of the sky and gave this two thumbs and a rigormortised johnson up for this movie, there is no way in hell I'd sit through anything called "Trucker and Dale v Evil". Has nothing to do with you.Is everybody on the rag this week or something? What's with all the sensitivity up in here? I thought I had the sensitive shtick market covered?

I think they both like the complex and want to stay there, but don't want to be that close to each other.
Yep. We're both handling it badly - I'm not really giving an inch as far as me moving. I just don't see the point. She'll have to move anyway - even if it is just to a new place in the building. I don't see that as a reason I should move out of the place we already have, especially since all the big furniture/tv/tables/etc. are mine. :shrug: Plus, the way she's treated all this, I just don't want to.
I'm sure one of the wise posters of this thread have already done this and I just haven't gotten that far yet, but dude....DO NOT GO INTO A HOTEL ROOM AND LEAVE HER ALONE IN THIS APARTMENT.

1. Sorry to hear*. Why are you going to a hotel while she stays til Sunday? From what you posted, I'd be afraid she was going to take your stuff and sell it :shrug: @. You going to change the locks?
Good....thank you Tigerfan.Keys, do NOT go to a hotel. I don't care how 'cool' you think she is, this will not end well for you or your cat. You know what's worse than being homeless? Being homeless with an animal that poops in a box. Enjoy that as cold weather approaches.
