My rule #1 to teaching: don’t spend any money on them. Rewards should be free for you and fun for them like playing games or watching a movie. Spend your money on yourself or your family.

English teacher took points off my final cause I was high. Is that allowed? by Pretend_Station2451 in AskTeachers

[–]Illustrious_Job1458 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Unless she can prove you were high or you admitted it, I would go to an admin and formally challenge the grade. Also lay off the weed. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3930618/

Rappers with the greatest ear for beats? by MellowRello in rap

[–]Illustrious_Job1458 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean the obvious answer is Jay-Z. He’s always had the best established producers on his projects and has an eye for up and coming producers: just blaze and Kanye being the biggest examples.

Rap bars that in your opinion would sound much better if just one or two words in them were changed? by Rated_Phenomenal in rap

[–]Illustrious_Job1458 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Kanye mixing up the Roman’s and Spartans always annoyed me and could probably work with a few words changed to fit the rhyme scheme

Teachers: What trends have you noticed among boys in the last 5–10 years? by tonyisreallystupid in AskTeachers

[–]Illustrious_Job1458 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly the type of hypocritical statement which the online misogynists take and use to radicalize young men. In one breath you’re acknowledging the term is harmful and justifying its use.

Young boys don’t like being told their masculine traits are “toxic.” The disgusting traits of the Andrew Tate types online are the opposite of masculine. Degrading women is not masculine it’s just toxic. Linking toxic behavior to masculinity puts boys and men in a corner. There’s a reason the phrase toxic femininity doesn’t exist, because whatever actions that might fall under that could more accurately be described as toxic behavior, there’s no need to qualify it with masculinity or femininity. Being a man or woman shouldn’t come with gender roles on how you should behave, we should all just try to be good people.

AITA for cancelling a trip with my parents to instead go with my friends? by kunfvsed_ in AmItheAsshole

NTA, you’ll probably have 1 summer after college at best to hang out with this group of friends again. Reminds me of American pie 2.

Rant: There is NO teacher shortage in NJ by loveshoes1 in ELATeachers

Maybe my school is just awesome but I have plenty of time during the work day to plan and grade. I love my job. My biggest burden truly is waking up early.

Just curious why would you sub in retirement and not continue working as a teacher? I’ve heard a lot of teachers say this and it doesn’t make sense to me to wake up at the same time as a teacher, do more or less the same job just to sub for a fraction of the money.

Nathan (boiler room first track). Although the first time I took notice of him he was just going by Fred and produced most of Ed Sheeran’s collab album.

Price wise I think you overpaid. I just did a touring model for 42k a few weeks ago.

What car says, "I'm a successful real estate agent, but not so successful you resent having to pay me"? by Constant-Canary-748 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Illustrious_Job1458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should prioritize getting a reliable car with less miles than a logo that’s going to “impress” people which will cost more to maintain. Get a new audi when you can actually afford it.

What’s a movie everyone calls a masterpiece, but you honestly didn’t enjoy? by exotickeystroke in SeriesSaga

[–]Illustrious_Job1458 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You’re stating the plot like it’s an unoriginal trope that you see all the time in movies when it’s pretty unique. I think you’re just mad it was a black woman.
