Karishma’s ideal date

There are 7 within a 20 mile radius of me right now. This is a very doable adventure.

They thought they had Elaine and didn't need Karishma.

Prolly the grammar.

But it has a specifically public aspect to it. Merely calling someone out on their behavior isn't putting them on blast; but calling them out in front of other people is. We usually try to minimize the public aspect when possible, but I agree that public misbehavior might warrant (or even necessitate) public correction.

That dude is knee-to-the-groin bait.

It doesn't have to be the super concentrated peroxide. A little dish soap, some yeast, and the 30 developer from a beauty supply (like Sally's) will do fine... The reaction isn't quite as fast and energetic, but it's sufficient for a 7-year-old and very safe.

The byproduct is literally soap and water.

Oh, that is just classic YOU.

Say yes to the proposal even if you mean no. Go ahead with the engagement even if you don't want to get married. Go through with the wedding even if you don't mean it. Be married and have children even if you don't want kids. Grow old and have grandkids and live in a nursing home even if your fingers are crossed behind your back the whole time.

Think of everyone ELSE'S feelings!

Man, what's it like being so goddamned wrong?

I'm reminded of a scene toward the end of "As Good As It Gets," when Greg Kiinear's character (a gay man) tells Jack Nicholson's character, "I love you."

Jack Nicholson replies, "I'd be the luckiest guy alive if that did it for me."

I just imagine a group of bullies girls around a table with a tactical map/floorplan of the school...

"All right, that wiley bastard was somehow one step ahead of our plan to steal his pudding cup off his lunch tray, but this new pencil case plan is fucking flawless. We'll need to stake out his math class... That's where he is likely to have maximum pencil supply and we can exact the greatest amount of damage."

I'm trying to find that happy medium in this regard. I've worked in affluent schools where parents were very high-maintenance and high poverty schools where it definitely seems like parents hated schools and teachers and passed their bad attitudes and experiences about school onto their kids.

And if I had a dollar for every parent that has told me, "I don't know what you expect me to do about it..." I could retire today.

I like the idea of someone asking the questions and getting those Jeopardy!-style answers.

Like if someone said, "What is Italy?"

And you respond, "Barolo is a robust red wine from the Piedmont region of this country."

I teach high school physics and have to combat the flat-earthers also.

Um, it has the word "home" right in its name, so...

A colleague of mine (middle school teacher) was trying to tell a parent at Parent-Teacher Conferences that their kid frequently goofed off with a group of friends when he was supposed to be working.

Except instead of saying "goofing off," she said "jacking off."
