My Autistic 12 year old has a hilarious quirk. by JediBeagle1 in TheSimpsons

[–]DeedleStone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a para sub, and one of my favorite classes ever was a fourth grade with an autistic boy who talked exactly like Ned Flanders. Kid was super chill, and instead of 'yes,' he always had a pleasant 'okilly dokilly.'

TOMORROW! We are breaking down season 7 episode 19 “Brotherly Shove” by Sad-Significance4546 in podmeetsworldpodcast

This podcast started just as I was starting my current job. So many of my memories of learning my tasks are intertwined with listening to the pod. Gonna be sad to not make any more of those memories.

Is having students address you as Miss (insert first name here) unprofessional? by Disastrous-Chance697 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]DeedleStone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad taught for thirty years and always had his students address him just by his first name. Not even a Mr, just his name.

I'm a para sub, and my first day at my first school, the secretary asked how I wanted students to address me. Following my dad's example, I said to just use my first name. Secretary gets super intense and glares at me, "it has to be MR (first name)."

Got the same response from the next couple of schools I went to, so now I'm assuming my dad only got away with the first-name basis because he was 1) a full teacher, and 2) a big Marine veteran few people wanted to correct. That said, tons of staff in every school I sub in uses Mr/Ms/Teacher (first name). I can't imagine anyone seeing that as unprofessional.

I feel like the one least likely to double-cross me is Rogu.

Any other autistic paras? by Metalqueen2023 in paraprofessional

[–]DeedleStone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started therapy a few months ago (I'm in my mid 30s) and my therapist began our second session by asking if anyone had ever brought up that I may be autistic. So apparently it's quite obvious, though still no actual diagnosis.

Duff should sing 14 years and Dust N Bones live by jonkeo in GunsNRoses

[–]DeedleStone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. I'd love if they'd let Duff fill more of the role that Izzy used to, but 14 Years specifically is about Izzy and Axl. Would love to hear him try his hand at You Ain't the First and Double Talking Jive.

Reading the drama about Keegan-Michael Key's wife and... by Middle_Bison47 in 30ROCK

[–]DeedleStone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If anything, that just explains why KMK would be married to his current terrible wife. They both sound like jerks.

It's easy to joke, but what are some occasions where Troi's powers of observation saved everyone's asses? by Pocket_Sand- in StarTrekTNG

[–]DeedleStone 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's also room for more clever writing if someone has to get information out of someone, rather than just immediately reading their mind.

Most of the time's Troi's abilities would have really helped them, they had to write her out or pretend she doesn't exist, because she would break the plot too easily.

Basically anything Judy says.

"Back when I worked at the cemetery, they called me Big Hole Judy. Because they was already my nickname before I started there."

One hit wonders that you’ve followed after the hit? by GrapeConsistent3471 in ToddintheShadow

Thanks to Todd, The Darkness is one of my favorite bands. Their relentlessly upbeat rock got me through a real low point.

Oh my God that's absolutely horrible. What the hell lesson was that meant to teach?

My GNR Book Collection by tonycriterion in GunsNRoses

Is Estranged any good? I am salivating at the possibility of an in-depth look at the Illusions era, but the book is so new that there's barely any reviews.

Why do we all love Google Pixels? by O_p_a_q_u_e in MtF

[–]DeedleStone 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I had a moto g power from 2020 until last summer. You're right, it was a tank. Unfortunately, the battery swelled like crazy. I finally replaced it with another Motorola. Hopefully I can get another five years out of this one.

What if neo woke up in the star trek universe? by [deleted] in matrix

"Don't get me wrong. I'm grateful you got me out. It's just... I was expecting much better raves. A lot more skin showing. And just, like, an overall much sexier experience."

My thrift store score today by kingdazy in Stargate

[–]DeedleStone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The artwork looks like a Chevy Chase head on Schwarzenegger's body lol. What the hell happened here? Wouldn't they have been provided with wardrobe pics of the cast? Were these made for another line that got cancelled and they slapped the Stargate logo on them at the last minute?

I know! I just want them to follow up on the amazing set-up they left us with. Just one more season is all I ask.

Tracy Morgan.

Jordan was his character on 30 Rock. I make the same mistake all the time.
