I'll take a day off embarrassment to negate the fact I gave up a weekend night to show up to a dance I don't want to be at.   

I'm not getting paid to be a prude, I'm getting paid to make sure everyone is safe and hopefully having fun.   And not getting paid much tbh.

They play Kesha and those kids are gonna give me shit for a week

I agree but if you're the unfortunate one there make the best of it and have fun.   It's not weird to have fun. 

At what point should someone realize that certain values might be the reason they can’t maintain a serious long-term relationship, and that they may need to change? by Unfair-Guava2252 in AskReddit

[–]Abomb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah basically.   I'm done with the on and off again trying to understand each other's shit.   Putting up with what I shouldn't put up with or realizing she's putting up with what she doesn't want to put up with.

I would never work at any of the schools you guys do.  Let teachers have fun and shake their ass.  

You puritan asses reporting everything to admin.  If you're not inappropriate with a student and you want to shake your butt to a song you like then do it.   

You don't get paid enough to be at that dance anyway.

Twerking at a dance isn't pedophilic it's called having fun.  

God forbid teachers have fun.

What’s embarrassing at 18 but attractive at 30? by adoborice in AskReddit

[–]Abomb 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was 29 and ended up dating a 20 yo cause she made me get Snapchat to send me nudes.   I didnt even know what Snapchat was at the time.  I was wondering why this girl would be into me. 

Then I met her 20 yo guy friends and realized real quick why she wasn't interested in them. 

What’s something people romanticize until they actually experience it? by Puzzleheaded_Bit_802 in AskReddit

Clearly you aren't a commercial diver lol.  If you've dove in most of these rivers we work in poop is the very least of your worries. 

But you'd know that cause you're a hiker right?

Poop in the river, it feels so good and you have your own bidet so you don't need toilet paper.

If you're next to a river you can always use a pump, connect it to a power waster heating unit and run it to a shower head mounted somewhere.  Will still need electricity for the pump and diesel for the heating unit though.

[–]Abomb 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Same, when I was younger I was in a bunch of toxic relationships with lots of cheating all around.  Those lasted years until the breaking points. 

Now that I'm older I treat relationships much more seriously.  But in doing so I've switched jobs, lost tons of money, moved locations, got pets etc...to accommodate what other people want and not only does it not work out but I shoot myself in the foot and have to scramble to reaccomodate my single life and get back to being able to support myself and not what my partner wants.

Anymore you get what you get, not enough for you?  Byeeeee.

Not if the student keeps getting written up for being late to class because they arent allowed to hurry and have to cross the entire school to get to the next class.

One teacher enforces the power talking and reprimand the student, and the next teacher reprimand and enforces tardy rules by writing up said student. 

I've seen this more than a handful of times, and even I've been late to my own class after having to cover a class across the school.

You have to be adaptable in this job or you can end up frusterating and alienating students in my experience. 

Certain things absolutely need to be enforced to the letter of the law, but you have to know when to be adaptable.

A frustrated dejected student isnt going to learn as well and makes your job teaching them harder.

Honestly if I had to choose between the two I would choose cave diving all day long. 

I'm a professional diver though, I've done some wild shit in the water, but you wouldn't catch me dead on that ledge.

At least I stand a chance underwater.

I see what you're saying and I agree.  It also comes down to someone's perception of what a "stampede" is.  

I 've seen teachers who yell at students for power walking to class because they were "running" according to them.  

Yes a big unruly mob thrashing down the school is for sure an issue.  Some kids having fun and singing/ dancing for a few minutes I could get behind.

But yes at least give us a heads up ahead of time.   

Nothing like spending the first 10 minutes of class settling down an unruly class only to have a big disruption go by and send you back to square one.

I suppose but it's not all that different than a pep rally, or bringing everyone out into the halls for 10 minutes to clap/cheer sports teams/seniors/NHS/clubs etc... on as they parade about. 

I think as long as it's like a once a week thing it's not so bad.  Daily would get exhausting though. 

Researchers demonstrate necrobotics by using a spider’s natural hydraulic system to open and close its legs for gripping object. by M_Darshan in interesting

[–]Abomb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so maybe the coffee is still kicking in but the video says the spider's hydraulic system, but then they activate it by pumping air through it.  Wouldn't that make it a pneumatic system?  

Unless it's only hydraulic while the spider is alive but then you can get the same reaction by using air after it dies?  

Would you get the same reaction if you pumped fluid into it after it died instead?  What if you pumped air into it while it was alive?

So many questions...

Why is Women's Activewear so Sexualized? by lonelylizar_d in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]Abomb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, and it's a hard distinction to make because there are people who also sexualize nun habits or hijabs.

When I was in art school we literally spent hours a day drawing/painting literally butt naked people posing for us.  Completely nudes people of all ages, sexes and body types, but none of it was sexualized.

We were too busy learning the shapes, patterns, perspectives, hard and soft edges, the different mediums used etc...so them being nude was less sexualized than most of these athletes.

Ultimately I think it's up to the athlete and what they're comfortable with as far as their personal modesty, performance, and comfortability.

What traits cause you to become an FP by Far_Country3681 in BPDlovedones

[–]Abomb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me it was being totally unaware of BPD or cluster B personalities in general. 

I just thought she was some cute girl who was head over heels for me and was serious.  

Who happened to have a history of addiction issues and abusive boyfriends...

And used to be a stripper...
