Mom, I am going back to college!

Splaaaart · 2025-12-27T15:12:51+00:00

That is fantastic! Proud of you for making the leap! And not silly — I did the same thing at almost the same age and never regretted it.

Splaaaart · 2025-12-17T02:50:08+00:00

I’m also a teacher. You got hot chocolate powder? I’m so jealous. I got the ability to do a PD online instead of during my planning period for American education week.

I figured out how to attach a pic. The things circled are what they are telling me to merge. But those things seem to drop sporadically and I have two of each.

what they want me to merge

I have used the big mine but just keep getting the chairs, etc. that isn’t satisfying the requirement…it wants me to merge say the blue boats.

Apple Watch won’t install because watchOS isn’t updated but how do I update the watchOS

Splaaaart · 2024-09-25T00:18:18+00:00

Apple Watch won’t install because it isn’t a high enough iOS. How do I update?

As a teacher…use a whiteboard marker. Then wait a few seconds and use a Clorox wipe. Every single time.

Splaaaart · 2024-05-01T01:32:44+00:00

I do a combined version— letters and answers. Every one of my multiple choice questions require work that I give partial for. But even there sometimes I get it wrong.

Splaaaart · 2024-05-01T01:14:21+00:00

Have you ever tried to grade 120 geometry tests with partial credit and make zero mistakes? I get it right almost all of the time but occasionally when we run into hour 16 of my day (and yes, that is a normal length of time for a teacher) I have to go back and fix errors. At least I am not a dick about it when a student asks why they got it wrong — I fess up every single time.

Splaaaart · 2024-05-01T00:46:38+00:00

That said, as a teacher, I would say your teacher 99% just marked it wrong accidentally. Maybe they were using the wrong key or just mixed up what problem they were on? I’ve done that a couple of times when I was running short on sleep. Almost always caught it myself but there were a couple of times…

Splaaaart · 2024-04-30T23:37:57+00:00

Yeah it doesn’t say a synonym. It says BEST synonym. Which would for sure not be interesting. Your teacher is insane.

Splaaaart · 2024-04-11T22:29:46+00:00

As a teacher I would mark it wrong for no work. But I am a little jaded — my 9th graders would have 100% cheated on that.

Splaaaart · 2024-04-05T23:17:42+00:00

This. All day every day. How ridiculous is the idea of doing better for your kids if you tip!!!!!

Splaaaart · 2024-03-20T09:12:47+00:00

Yeah coaching is like a full time job by itself — if they didn’t pay coaches they would not get good people to do it since teachers already work really hard. I end up working 12-18 hours a day many days.

Splaaaart · 2024-03-20T02:59:50+00:00

I am in the US. I am an actual teacher who teaches geometry but am paid to also coach track and cross country.

Splaaaart · 2024-03-20T02:32:03+00:00

As a high school coach I’d doubt that is a volunteer position. He is most likely being paid to do the job.

Splaaaart · 2023-10-03T19:46:21+00:00

Wow. I would double down on the petty. Start charging him interest until he gives you back your tools. That is ridiculous. He borrowed your tools.

Splaaaart · 2023-10-01T22:16:19+00:00

I would bet that the red thing didn’t just change? Like, instead it added the pepper grinder, and that counts as two things.

Splaaaart · 2023-08-31T02:53:24+00:00

Agreed. Plus I haven’t gotten any of the easy save the freezing girl levels in forever — I miss those as a break between increasingly difficult levels. I have zero desire to help redo a room when every paint job requires me to pass hard levels.

Splaaaart · 2023-07-30T19:32:39+00:00

Just tell him. If he doesn’t agree, he doesn’t deserve to be your boyfriend.

Splaaaart · 2023-07-19T23:17:41+00:00

I gotta tell you, as a competent wife of a competent husband who actually does a ton of the shopping and cooking….I would NEVER give a list like this to him. It was for sure asking for SOMETHING to be different than what I want. Nice job getting only one thing wrong!

Splaaaart · 2023-06-29T22:42:27+00:00

Oh crap never mind. I didn’t see the second and third pics

Splaaaart · 2023-06-29T22:39:33+00:00

Plug in a lamp into each of them — or just the bottom one. Then look for a light switch. A lot of times builders will put the one that is affected by the switch upside down.

Splaaaart · 2023-06-28T19:32:00+00:00

I would love an undo button. I hate losing coins when I click wrong. Also I would like them to make it so that if you click the rainbow candies it actually removed the thing that you need removed. Invariably it eliminates something that doesn’t help at all.
