I like to think she copied it verbatim from one of those ‘low-country’ aunts. That grammar flaw would definitely be fitting for a hick from the sticks.
NO! If you can revise columns, at least put in a good word with the big man to let us delete comments that are no longer topical… Asking for a friend ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I’d like to focus on the phrasing in that last scenario. Is putting your balls in her court really working? (I know you meant *ball’s*, but dammit, I still giggled when I read it.)
I had one the day after I turned 21. My old man took me out and ordered one for each of us. I ended up yakking in the bathroom for 10 minutes. When I came back, he had a beer for me, and he’d polished off both Bloody Marys. The man has a tolerance I one day hope to achieve.
I have a problem with your bio. My boy Tim Riggins (before he went on to do some bad shit in the desert and become a cop in LA) used to say, and I quote, “Texas Forever.”
It is an easy mistake to make. I will be looking forward to you getting that fixed up.
We may be missing HavingFunYet’s point. 1. our academics are falling behind. That’s a fact. 2. As someone who just left the teaching field, it wasn’t because it was rough hanging around kids all day (that part was fun). It was because the entitlement generation of parents are now having children, and they can’t accept that their delicate little flower is a dunce.
Also, BathroomExec makes a good point- we basically can’t get fired without seriously fucking up. I worked with a lot of really great educators, but would have loved to drop the ax on four or five SUUUUPER shitty teachers that were gonna be at that school until they retire. (summer is still eaten up by >2 weeks of PD if you live in a decent state though)
A piece of advice I picked up working with violent youth who also loved confrontation:
1. Never argue with them.
2. If you do argue with them, make DAMN sure you win.
Alpha dog them until they give in. The power struggle can be won, but it is often at a high cost.

Just a thought to make your Monday slightly less (more?) depressing: Most student loans are forgiven if you die. Car loans…. not so much.
This just have Michael J. Scott’s fingerprints ALL. OVER. IT.

That’s awful. I loved it.
I’m not your pal, guy.

Strike that. Reverse it.

I guess I can post a hyperlink. idk how to embed a video tho. #PGP
Also, you can make Siri sound like a man. If you don’t like her tone…. Or you have trouble taking directions from a woman. either way, that’s a thing.
If we’re being honest, as soon as I read the first App Name, my thoughts immediately when to “The Office” episode where Ryan creates WUPHF.
I can’t post an actual hyperlink (because I’m an idiot), but here is the address to the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytc9-wGCHW0

Tech guy, if you’re gonna delete the spam I’m referencing, do me a favor and delete my comment too. I CAN’T TAKE THE DOWN-VOTES.
Addendum: Team America: World Police theme song.
Stop it.
So I still don’t like you, Toby. But dammit if I don’t respect you after that comment.
What would you know about a non-alcoholic beverage, Jim?
FRIG OFF, LAHEY.
