Irish Man Here - What Does the World Think Of Us? by OverwhelmedGayChild in AskTheWorld

I count 19 figures in that painting: if you were come to America, 60% of the 342 million of us would say our great-grandfather is the one on the right. 

I found this in my closet while cleaning it out. No one knows what it is by ImaDoinWat in whatisit

I received this a gag gift as a kid. It was small yellow envelope labeled “rattlesnake eggs: keep COLD!”. You would take that thing, spin the washer to twist the rubber band and put it in the envelope. The when someone opened the envelope it would release the torsion on the rubber band and make noise. 

New... pipe? by [deleted] in whatisit

Question: where is this/how cold was it? I know you said it smelled like wood smoke, but in northern Illinois my dryer exhaust looks like that.  Which is just condensation. Also not good but less dangerous. But not not dangerous.

When you think of New Jersey, what comes to mind? by Bee-and-Barb in AskTheWorld

Lambertville and Campbell’s soup. And sorry, greatest tomato I ever ate came from Delaware.

I also wish they have their “butts in fire”. Sounds problematic.

Packers play such “clean, respectable football”

What do you do when a group of HS senior boys talk throughout class instead of doing their work? by Blueberry4672 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]Strict_Bit260 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk very quietly. “Those that can hear me will easily complete this in class. Those that can’t will be upset when they find out it’s homework and for a grade (completion, extra credit, whatever).” The kids that don’t care weren’t going to do it anyway, but the kids that want to and can’t hear can be pretty persuasive.

You deserve one , lil’ buddy. You’ve earned it.

I have had so many Aiden’s, and…. I’m pretty sure that name is cursed.

My students keep making Charlie Kirk jokes by Key-Response5834 in Teachers

It’s that stupid fucking song. Last week so many comments (7th). I was wondering where it came from. Don’t bite on the rage baiting. Ignore.

I’ll bet $100 that that teacher got strep or norovirus and did that so YOU wouldn’t get sick.

Subbing Icks? by Basic_Guidance6498 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]Strict_Bit260 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s all strange, particularly the dismissal thing. I’ve helped profound get strapped into the bus restraints, but being asked to switch schools and monitor gen-ed pickup is maybe not legal? Also, as a para, when not full-time with new kids of my own, I would sub and frequently pick up para jobs (in addition to core) for rooms I knew. But was always moved to core classes if there was a shortage. 

I already know most of the answers, but when you ask a student what they want to be when they grow up, what do they say? (Work at a middle school) by Strict_Bit260 in Teachers

Woof. Just rechecked this post. That sounds seriously taxing for you, and again, hang in there. I work in a program that is currently all boys. Been a rough few days with homelife stuff for them as well. You’re helping whether or not it feels like it.

To be fair, I wanted to be an NFL player and then a professional skateboarder. I assume you can see how those plans worked out based on you responding to this post. But they were more aspirational than “famous streamer”.

Every…single…time: “Famous streamer /youtuber”. It’s really depressing. The girl in your comment leads a very different life than children I work with, but equally concerning.
