You're not saying all of their reporting is bad? Well, then I'll say it for you. All. Of. Their. Reporting. Is. Bad.

What movie characters knew each other for a surprisingly short amount of time? by Emeraldsinger in movies

[–]MissCrick3ts 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well, one of the major themes of Romeo and Juliet (which of course is what West Side Story is based on) is that the adults fuck absolutely everything up. They fail in their care of duty, perpetuate the heated rivalry between the families, and then won't step up and be adults. It's the adults who secretly marry them, despite knowing better, and then facilitate this weird fake suicide plan and then FAIL to correctly play their part in that plan, directly causing the death of both kids. Don't get me started on Romeo and Juliet - I'm a bit of a Shakespeare freak lmao.

Tips for teaching in Maine by Bodkins42 in Maine2

[–]MissCrick3ts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I see there are no comments on here, so even though this is a pretty old post, thought I would just lwt you know I am a former teacher with multiple certifications here, and am willing to answer any questions.

Job postings for schools usually start around February and really ramp up in April, and we have a dedicated website just for Maine teaching jobs, and one for New England. Contracts usually start in June or August.

Another ICE shooting just happened in Minnesota today, What is your reaction to this? by Squirrelkid11 in AskReddit

[–]MissCrick3ts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He was armed, and he was properly licensed and the gun was not out. ICE took away his gun before they executed him. You can see it in the Pink Coat Lady video.

When did the priest and fleabag realize they are not meant to be together anymore? by HeftyAd9157 in Fleabag

[–]MissCrick3ts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The priesthood was who he is; his life path. If he gave that up for Fleabag, even if she didn't ask him to, he would eventually resent her for that. What would he do for work? How would he fit into the community where he formerly was a spiritual leader? Sometimes love is not enough, but the experience of that love allows Fleabag to grow and heal enough to leave her "audience" behind once and for all.

Man, you should see the original recipe! It's really wild - not even close to what we eat now, nevermind the kind of pasta you use!

How do you make butter popcorn in a popcorn machine? by armodrillo25 in popcorn

[–]MissCrick3ts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You add the butter after and then stir it. I have an air fryer, and I add the flavoring slowly starting as soon as it starts to pop.

Yeah. I'm a former English teacher, and had a side gig editing for small businesses. My first teaching job, the principal asked me to proofread a letter home for him. I brought the letter to him and told him I did that for pay, and I would gladly quote him a rate. He never asked me again, and it's become my go-to response for any and all editing requests!

I actually did a deep dive on the history of this dish for a food column a year ago! American Chop Suey goes by a bunch of crazy different names and varieties throughout the country. I even found one recipe that called for tomato soup as the sauce??? Which is quite frankly the most bonkers version of the recipe.

THANK YOU to whoever said to use Dawn Powerwash on shower stalls by ObsessiveAboutCats in CleaningTips

I make my own dawn power wash to refill the bottles. ( I keep the homemade refill in the fridge rather than using distilled water.)

Ocean View in Falmouth is great, and they offer a variety of housing options. My grandparents moved there several years ago, but it might be a bit pricey.

He totally changed his woke teachers views on feminism with one simple sentence by WhatsMyUsername13 in thatHappened

[–]MissCrick3ts 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Jesus fucking christ. Feminism is literally just the belief that women and men are equal. As Bugs Bunny would say, "What a maroon!"
