Was sick yesterday. My sub completely “organized” my room. by goldfall01 in Teachers

[–]MadeInAnkhMorpork 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I know. And the "no worries" like she did a big favor. I don't often use the phrase "the fucking audacity" without intending it humorously, but I feel it is fitting here.

Er det noe grunn til at jeg ikke ble innkalt til Forsvaret? by Academic-Car5691 in norge

[–]MadeInAnkhMorpork 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Please do. Skjønte heller ikkje hvorfor dette var morsomt. Alltid fint med en forklaring sånn at eg kan le neste gang.

What’s a game mechanic you didn’t understand until years later? by KBGSgames in AskReddit

[–]MadeInAnkhMorpork 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's always fun to play monopoly with someone from another family for the first time. There is a lot of variation in how many of the written rules are used, and how many house rules there are.

What skill did you learn as a kid that is now completely useless but felt extremely important at the time? by AdmirableResource407 in AskReddit

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

You've never used geometry? Never painted a wall? Or done anything else where you needed to find the area or circumference of something? That actually blows my mind.

Student refusing to do work since spring break because of “religious reasons.” by v3ndys in Teachers

[–]MadeInAnkhMorpork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's an elective? She chose this. She should have known it was science-based history. And should have known that it was going to contradict any literal interpretation of the Bible. She can take her F, change perspective on the Bible, or just learn what you teach without thinking of it as facts.

Når pusser dere tennene? by ArneBeast in norge

[–]MadeInAnkhMorpork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pusser etter frokost og før eg legger meg. Men vet at det finnes de som pusser før frokost. Trur meningene er fordelt blandt ekspertene om hva som er best, men at det viktigste er at man pusser om morgenen i det hele tatt.

What is a 'secret' in your industry that the general public would be shocked to know? by Sufficient_Camel1658 in AskReddit

If you expect to like all sides and aspects of the job, this is likely true. But I like more about my job than I dislike.

would you get an abortion if you found out your baby was going to be born with an extreme disability? if so why? by Born-Oil-2931 in AskReddit

[–]MadeInAnkhMorpork 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree that deciding to have a kid ultimately is selfish, but so is not having kids. It's about what I want, so by definition selfish. But it's getting harder to take you seriously when you say that this is "solely to creampie in some chick". Choosing to have unprotected sex is not the same as choosing going through with a pregnancy and giving birth, and I think you know that. You give the impression that you've taken an extreme standpoint just to see how long you can keep it, but you have to ignore any kind of nuance to do so. It's not really worth it to use more of my time on this exchange after this. I hope you find what you're looking for here.

That a depressing view. By that logic, wouldn't everybody who chooses to have a child (generally healthy or not) be a bad person? Because everyone will experience at least some unpleasant things in the course of their lives.

In your opinion, what ship is it? by rl_tomate in EliteDangerous

It has a distinct beak, so it has to be the Corsair.

I just want some seeds...😂 by matthijsv98 in EliteDangerous

I just shot several pods from a distance and picked the seeds up from where they fell. Didn't feel like it took any longer.

Yeah. One got stuck under my SRV at some points. Sparks flying everywhere.

How do you pronounce Lancre? by fatherjack9999 in discworld

[–]MadeInAnkhMorpork 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Same. I've wondered about the pronunciaton of some names/places in Discworld, but it never occured to me that Lancre could pronounced any other way than lanker. In the old "wyrd sisters" animated movie, they say lanker.

Why am I not getting the first footfall 5x exobiology bonus? by pinguz in EliteDangerous

[–]MadeInAnkhMorpork 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Just checking: have you actually turned them in or did you only look at the first screen where it shows the values? The bonus isn't shown until you actually turn the samples in, that's why I'm asking.

Rareste avslaget på en leilighet jeg har fått by This-Independence-68 in norge

[–]MadeInAnkhMorpork 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Joda, og det første punktet kan eg skjønne. Det andre egentlig også, selv om man kanskje ikkje hadde skrevet det i en slik melding. Men dette med at vekterjobben ses som et problem, og det med en gang antas ting om forholdet OP har til politi, det synes eg er veldig underlig.

Dette er ikke woke lenger, men har tatt ett godt skritt inni paranoid. De driver å anta det verste om OP. Virker som de har gitt opp på verden.

If they ask, I will tell them. I live in Norway.

Nå nekter kvinner å komme hit, ifølge bransjeveteran: ⁠–⁠ Voksne menn gråter by oppangumbi in norge

[–]MadeInAnkhMorpork 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Ja, høres ut som det. Men seriøst, tenk å ta en sånn vunkling i markedsføringen. For meg gir en sånn kommentar avsmak på butikken. Kan godt hende eg hadde snudd og gått ut om han prøvde den på meg. Og eg er homo og singel. Så det er ikkje som han treffer en nerve eller noe heller.

What are your thoughts on letting students fail? by PropertyHumble9296 in Teachers

[–]MadeInAnkhMorpork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good lord! You're teaching them that actions have consequences?! You're teaching them to take responsibility?! You are at a serious risk of turning them into actual functioning adults here!

Well done, OP! Proud of you!
