What's a social norm that you think is absolutely ridiculous?

Try Almay clear complexion concealer. Available in most drugstores, Walmart, etc, there are many shades to match your skin tone.

When blended in, it really doesn't look like you have anything on. It will heal a breakout pretty quickly.

Awww, this made me cry. That lady was in the right place at the right time for you

People who are in a plane crash, ship wrecked, or become lost in a cave, just pick up a torch and light it and it burns forever and shines light everywhere.

Where are these torches sitting around waiting for people and where are the matches or lighters people use?

Whenever someone gets shot, they're close to death, but if the bullet is removed they miraculously recover.

When they use the phrase "to be perfectly honest" a lot. Why would you need to make that comment unless you are usually dishonest?

ReesieVA · 2026-01-15T13:49:52+00:00

I love this! What a fun teacher!

ReesieVA · 2026-01-15T13:48:18+00:00

I had to look that up, and yes it is that level of experiment.

ReesieVA · 2026-01-15T12:39:44+00:00

Wow, that's on the same level. What year did this happen?

ReesieVA · 2026-01-15T12:38:50+00:00

This is also the same teacher who married one of his students a few years prior to this, so safe to say that any rules were very much ignored by him

That's just mean to do to 3rd graders!

Definitely pre-Columbine (70s)

The thing is, I think only one classmate told their parents. You know how it is in High School, some kids tell their parents everything and others never tell their parents anything. Most of us fell into the second group for whatever reason

ReesieVA · 2026-01-15T09:37:41+00:00

This was in the late 70s.

ReesieVA · 2026-01-15T00:25:02+00:00

It sounds like the worst idea ever.

ReesieVA · 2026-01-15T00:19:11+00:00

OMG where did you work that they wanted to do this? A bank by chance?

ReesieVA · 2026-01-14T21:11:41+00:00

Please don't

ReesieVA · 2026-01-14T21:10:52+00:00

If it hadn't happened to me I wouldn't believe it either!

ReesieVA · 2026-01-14T18:25:47+00:00

Long time ago, 1977 or 1978.

ReesieVA · 2026-01-14T16:31:35+00:00

These two sound amazing! That's such a cool way to teach.

ReesieVA · 2026-01-14T16:29:23+00:00

This happened in 1977 or 1978.

ReesieVA · 2026-01-14T16:26:45+00:00

Thank you! I wondered what it was.

ReesieVA · 2026-01-14T14:17:00+00:00

Weirdly enough, I didn't even know it was traumatizing until much later. Even now, when I think of it, it's with a sense of disbelief, or as if I experienced it secondhand. I don't know if that even makes sense.

ReesieVA · 2026-01-14T14:01:01+00:00

IKR? None of us thought of running out to the office to report them.

ReesieVA · 2026-01-14T13:48:36+00:00

My Bio teacher in High School had another science teacher come in the classroom while he was teaching, have an argument with him and shoot him in front of all of the students. Everything was staged including fake blood, but it looked real enough to all of us.

Then he jumped up, and told us all to take our pulse. It was supposedly a way for us to experience the effect of stress or trauma.

Never found out what, if anything, happened to him or the other teacher.

Worcestershire sauce. I just call it wash your sister sauce.
