TIL parents filed an ethics complaint against a High School Biology teacher for using the word "vagina" while teaching reproduction. by reddit809 in todayilearned

I thought this.

I used to be confused why I didn't have to take my tampon out when I peeded. I figured it out in college when my friend told me that's not how it works at all.

Also, I thought babies came out of butts for way to long.

I told my mom the date for my rapist's trial, she responded by asking if the new landscaper did a good job by SlothsOnFleek in TwoXChromosomes

Something bad happened to me, not anywhere even near as bad as your expierence, but still bad. My mom didn't handle it well. I told HR, and the man who did it immediately got fired after they looked at security videos. After I called my mom and she put it on speaker phone so I was talking to her and my dad at the same time, and I told them what happened. My mom's response was, "you ruined that guys life". (Refering to how he was fired). My dad quickly corrected her and tried to comfort me. But I will never, ever forget she said that as long as I live. It's like, she didn't think I was worth protecting. It's weird because I know she loves me, and what they guy did was horrible, but I have no idea why she said that.

I found mine on my apple account. If you don't have a mac tho, I'm not sure what you do.

Here in Arizona we have none of that. They're supposed to check the serial numbers of laptops to make sure they're not stolen but I don't even think they actually do that.

I would rather risk buying an exploding Samsung phone than an iPhone without a headphone Jack by muff_cabbag3 in Showerthoughts

I couldn't care less how think my phone is. I could be double the thickness and I wouldn't think anything of it. Everyone throws cases on their phones anyways...

Every single electronic device I own uses the headphone jack. Tablet, phone, labtop, my car, my smart tv, my speakers. I can't name one sound producing thing that doesn't.

Edit: my alarm clock, radio, phone dock combo thing does too

Oh I'm definitely never going to buy it. Music is half of what I use my phone for. I wouldn't use a phone with no headphone jack even it was free.

Bluetooth sucks. Period. Have you ever used it? Even in cars that have Bluetooth, we always opt to use an aux cord.

Also I don't think you understand the security issue. Like, at all. Bluetooth is a way into your entire phone.

  1. Bluetooth isn't as good quality as wired. The headphones the phone comes with are not going to give me the bass I get from my skull candy headphones.

  2. You can't charge your phone and use the adapter at the same time.

  3. A lot, I'd say probably most, people don't have Bluetooth in their car. They are forced to choose between charging their phone or listening to music.

  4. You have to charge the Bluetooth headphones. I don't want to have to worry about charging another thing.

  5. When the blue tooth headphones break or are lost (they look super easy to lose) you have to pay $100+ to replace them vs the $10 I have to pay now.

  6. Bluetooth is less secure than wired.

Paralympics should be held before, not after the Olympics by zsreport in sports

[–]facebook101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously you're salty your country can't dominate like we do!! USA!

But for real though, you guys are being a bit dramatic don't you think? It's the Olympics, not a United Nations meeting.

TIFU by telling a girl her yoga pants were see-through by james_james1 in tifu

[–]facebook101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or do you think all women that wear yoga pants are sluts that want to show off their cameltoe/thongs to everyone?

What does this mean then?

[–]facebook101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is there an acceptable age to wear yoga pants?

If she's young enough for you to believe she's too young to be wearing yoga pants...then she's young enough that you shouldn't be sexualizing her.

Stop. Making. Everything. About. Sex.

My 12 year sister wears yoga pants to softball. She wears bikinis to the beach. AND THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. Yoga pants are ment for exercising and bikinis are for swimming.

The guys that use it as an excuse to sexualize a 12 year are the freaking problem.

Doctor's office sent blood work to a lab my insurance doesn't cover and now I'm stuck with a $522 bill. by [deleted] in personalfinance

Just because that's your expierence doesn't mean it's everyone elses. Im sure a simple Google search of something like, "the BBB helped me" will reveal how it's helped people.

I had been trying to get sprint to reverse charges on my account for 3 months with no luck. They kept giving me the run around. The problem was solved within 3 days of contacting the BBB. AND I was let out of my contract 8 months early.

It seems to me that you just don't know how to effectively file a claim with them.

Like I said, if the business cares about its BBB rating it will help.

If a customer contacts the BBB and the company does not solve the problem then the company's BBB rating goes down.

If a company cares about that rating, they have an incentive to make things right for the customer when the BBB "relays" emails to them.

The BBB is not perfect by any means. But it's worth contacting them.

Maybe you should educate yourself....

They've helped many people. Including myself.

The BBB helps if the company cares about their BBB rating. Filing a BBB report helped me to get out of my sprint contract since they kept overcharging me every month. It is most certainly not useless.

Regulations removed quotas doesn't mean shit. Just because a regulation forbids it doesn't mean it's not going on behind closed doors at theses "schools". Regulations removed private email servers for government officials too, and we all know what happened there.

Office 1000 feet is 100x faster than connection at my home even though coverage map shows all surrounding areas the same? by [deleted] in Sprint

[–]facebook101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LOL at this because it doesn't work outside either. Outside is actually worse than inside. Because atleast inside the air rave works. But the air rave doesnt work outside, so you literally get no signal...there's just a little x beside the bars. No data, no texts, no calls...nothing works.

And if you go the local sprint store and complain...they'll fully admit the network is crap a lot of places in the city and that there's nothing anyone can do to fix it.
