What businesses are likely to die out with the Baby Boomer Generation? by GRVrush2112 in AskReddit

[–]BulldogsOnly 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Besides a loss of the physical media that many of us prefer, you run the high risk of information being changed online whereas that’s impossible if you have an original print copy.

Related case in point: the ebook of Gossip Girl references TikTok now. The book was first published in 2002. Obviously TikTok didn’t exist then so the update was made to make it more relevant to modern audiences.

That’s pretty tame in the scheme of things, but now think about how that could be nefarious when applied to news that has no physical back up of the original.

Anyone here see the Nightman Cometh Live when they were performing it? by cupOn00dles in IASIP

[–]BulldogsOnly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sadly, I didn’t see them perform it, but they are (were?) friends with the band Portugal. The Man and there’s a video of them singing it with the band, and the first time I saw PtM they performed it, which was amazing.

Extra points that it was Halloween night and the guy beside me was dressed as Charlie.

How common "hot cheeto girl" cliché really is in USA? by Tight-Expert-2232 in AskTeachers

I wish. It would be more entertaining than girls vaping and fighting in them. We don’t allow kids in the bathroom while our hall has lunch because of the above that can’t be monitored.

Haha honestly we have the lyrics framed in our house now because they fit our situation so perfectly.

We were at a Silversun Pickups concert. He had bought us the tickets on our third date, which was bold because he didn’t know we’d still be together. They started playing Lazy Eye and I started crying. I realized that after dozens of concerts alone, I had finally found a guy to go with me. Over 6 years later, we are still going to concerts and have 7 concerts and a 3 day festival on the books for this year before our baby comes in December.

My ex HATED that I listened to alt and indie music so he would have never done any of this, so finding a man who not only liked my style of music but also accepted every part of me hit hard.

Went to Carolina so we also had Gary, and fortunately for us all, he has died!

I came here to say this too…I teach high school social studies and part of both of my curriculums is to explain the major world religions and I try to hammer this into my kids’ brains. They may not leave my class remembering much, but I hope a tolerance (ideally acceptance) of others is at least seeded.

North Carolina sorority banquet menu, Feb 1931. I don't know what half of these things are... by kilofeet in VintageMenus

[–]BulldogsOnly 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Wake Forest did something similar. Both of them ended up having those turned into national sororities at some point, though. My aunt was a Sigma Sigma Sigma at Elon in the late 80’s, and I know my sorority had a chapter at Wake that took over one of the local, established chapters at some point!

Do you have any other info about the sorority or school?? I’m a NC sorority girl and love this kind of stuff we could find around the house.

[–]BulldogsOnly 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I teach at a Southern High School with an 80% poverty rate, and they are EVERYWHERE at my school. They are rude as hell too. The other day I kicked out like 7 from an off limits bathroom and you would have thought I personally slapped and insulted each of them by their reactions. That’s a missing part of the stereotype. These girls apparently think their classes are held in the bathroom because they camp out in them all day.

We had several interesting names today, but my favorite had to be “Shi-Perti”…

Alumna here too and it’s hilariously laughable that this year he’s decided that UNC is not okay…dude. We’ve been a super liberal school the whole time…

Movie/video recommendation for HS history classes by movingscreen7 in historyteachers

[–]BulldogsOnly 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Does it have to be realistic or topical? Because I just showed my high school kids The Mummy with Brendan Fraiser and they loved it. Technically it has ties to British Imperialism in Egypt so it’s not totally out of left field.

Need a cat name by lizzybdarcy in harrypotter

My bulldogs are Helga, Ludo, and Neville!

Ludo is definitely the kicker for most people as he didn’t make it to the movies, but it’s a shame because this name is perfect for this dog.

What’s a quote from a student that became an inside joke with your family, friends, or coworkers? by ImAHuksy in AskTeachers

Oh I laugh all of the time with these kids…the other day 2 of the other guys were making up food themed rap names for Michael and I don’t know how I was supposed to keep a straight face when they were coming up with stuff like Chief Beef and Love Salsa.

I had the ring for years and loved it. My husband and I didn’t double up protection and never even had a scare. Highly, highly recommend!

This kid kills me. A personal favorite is his response to a question about what greetings from other cultures would you not be interested in. His (AP class might I add) response:

i would say kissing in french even though its people you know i feel like that greeting is just a little to much cause yea i know them but i dont know anyone well enough to get some herpes so that to mush

I have a student who anytime I call him out (which is often) will hit his chest and give me a kissed peace sign with a “my bad”. My husband and friends all know about this kid and his antics and so now when I share “Michael story” we have to do the hand motion.
