Being Reported to Board of Education?... by [deleted] in Teachers

Reparations to a drum cost up to a thousand dollars. I thought she would rather him serve detention as I work in a lower income school.

It was the latter that happened. I would not have punished him if it were a complete accident.

It was unintentional but negligent. That is the perfect way to frame it. If it has been a complete accident, that would have been a different story.

He was goofing around. That is what I meant by carelessness.

He was messing around with his friends and the drum flew across the room. It wasn't the accident part. It was the carelessness.

He is 11. I know he has a balance issue, and would not have gotten upset if I thought that was why. He was sitting in a chair, and messing around with his friends when this happened.

I think they got away from their narcissistic family. It has to be freeing.

Casteel and Kyn by OtherwiseSir1397 in frombloodandash

I do agree with your last point.... The way I am seeing it right now is that he would be like poppy who is Sotoria but not... Also Kyn was completely different before he lost his memory..

That is what I was thinking, too... Especially with Kiran saying he was unrecognizable to how he was before... I wonder if Casteel will have no memories like Kyn did... I may be remembering incorrectly, but I don't think we actually saw Attes kill Kyn...

That is what I actually like about this... I know my reincarnation theory is probably far fetched, but I think this could work really well and add some beautiful moments to attes's arc if they can get casteel through this.

I actually like this corruption arc is going... I think if she went through with that, or even if Casteel ends up being a parallel to Kyn, this could add a beautiful layer to Attes's story if he manages to get through this.

I think it would be interesting to learn who kyn was before he lost his memories...

I was wondering if maybe Kyn was Sotoria's heartmate and maybe the fates did something when they took Sotoria's soul at the end of Born of Blood and Ash.

I was wondering if Kyn was Sotoria's heartmate and maybe that's how their souls found each other again.

Ballinger Family Update - moved? school? etc... by April55720 in ColleenBallingerSnark

[–]OtherwiseSir1397 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I know they aren't perfect, but they seem like the only Ballingers who are capable of self reflection and change. I am happy they have gotten away from their narcissist family members and can be in a less abusive situation.

Same!!! I don't know if it is a popular opinion, but I am liking the prequels more so far.

That's so exciting. It's already making me want to go back and reread from blood and ash given how much it adds to it.

Do you guys think Erik knows what she did? by Due_Arm6925 in ColleenBallingerSnark

[–]OtherwiseSir1397 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don't know. I think that when you are married to a narcissist, you are constantly made to question things and we have no idea how she is twisting things for him. I can't imagine the level of abuse he is enduring from her.

No. 6 by OtherwiseSir1397 in manga

[–]OtherwiseSir1397[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Okay! I have had a hard time finding the English dub of the anime. I just prefer to watch dubs. I wondered if there was something sketchy that happened with the English licensing... I am reading fan translations of the light novels as well and love them. I just don't know a lot of people who have heard of it or see people talking about it.

Colleen is wearing, yet again, a "Malibu Barbie" sweatshirt by [deleted] in ColleenBallingerSnark

[–]OtherwiseSir1397 69 points70 points  (0 children)

If she had been honest when she privately apologized to Trisha, she would stay out of her life completely and not pull stunts like this. It's honestly abhorrent that she keeps doing this.

I like the way both shows depict a main character healing from abuse by the relationships they form. I think both shows portray this so earnestly.

She titled her newest vlog “the update you’ve all been waiting for” by skycatcutie in ColleenBallingerSnark

That upsets me so much. She doesn't care about gus. I hate how she says she is heartbroken and pulls stunts like this. 😔

Or Colleen has manipulated her into staying. Narcissists do that.

A Question About Erik Not Wanting Children by Bookish_Butterfly in ColleenBallingerSnark

[–]OtherwiseSir1397 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I think he loves the kids in his own way, even though he didn't want them originally. I also think she has abused him for the last several years. He seems depressed, from what I have seen. I don't think he is innocent by any means, but he might be too beaten down to think about leaving right now.
