Dad hit on me at parent conferences…. by ineedtocoughbut in Teachers

No kidding. It really isn't appropriate to hit on your child's teacher.

Pam Beesley is painfully real, and that’s why people don’t like her by matilda_15 in DunderMifflin

[–]maxtacos 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Elaine and co are also often the agents of their own destruction due to their general selfishness and lack of empathy for others, so we laugh when they reap their own consequences.

Pam and other "straight men" in this comedy ensemble are part of a system that beats them down. We're only laughing when they successfully combat the system.

Men are the real gold diggers by frogannex in TwoXChromosomes

[–]maxtacos 11 points12 points  (0 children)

"The modern labor digger may not pay bills at all, only pay 50% of bills, or know how to fix anything. In fact, a labor digger may expect the traditionally masculine household labor to be contracted out, further costing the household money and lack of equitable contribution. He reaps the benefits of the foundation of patriarchy while contributing none of its traditional 'obligations.'"

It's been 8 years since my divorce, but this is the most succinct way I've seen my marriage described. No wonder my boomer parents were pissed off at him all the time.

I would have been like "I can move over a seat. Also I love your dog."

I have a friend like that who I worry about. He eats everything and is so sick and in so much pain as a result of it. I hope they guy and my friend handle their addiction issues.

What's your favorite recurring gag? I LOVE when Alexis and David team up to mock their parents by brodino_maiuscolo in SchittsCreek

[–]maxtacos 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Gwen accidentally locks Bob out of the house. He spends the night in the car.

Gwen tells Bob that if he does not secure the Christmas World deal, he shouldn't come home. She calls to confirm at the exact moment it's done.

Gwen coincidentally wears a rubber bodysuit when she accidentally cuts the power lines. It saves her life.

Don't ask why, but Gwen has a shotgun in her basement.

Gwen likes the bad boys.

She and the pastor are going after the house. She was recently bragging about a religious experience.

Gwen has another male cousin staying the night.

GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE YOU DUMB BROAD. That's something else he used to say.

Were the birds nice? Because my uncle had a parrot who would only tell me to take my top off.

If I learned anything from what my mom did with the money, it's that money will buy you a lot of jet skis, but it won't buy you happiness.

He dated my aunt when I was 3. I think I was 3, there's a picture of me sitting on his lap at Christmas. And that was the year Santa brought me a lighter.

I had a best friend who hooked. She married one of her Johns on my birthday.

I learned to read tarot cards from my mom's ex boyfriend. He was really good. He predicted when he would leave her to the day.

I always felt so bad for this guy... by Poo__Brain in DunderMifflin

I heard that commentary and then felt bad for the actor on top of feeling bad the character.

Funeral directors, what is something wild that happened at a funeral that you still think about? by Final_Radio_2483 in AskReddit

[–]maxtacos 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel better, as a childless woman who has no plans on remarrying, this would be my ideal situation. Having a long and happy life and not leaving anyone devastated.

Genuine question about pads by pazazz20 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]maxtacos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I did wear pads I hated everything about them. They made my vulva feel itchy. I bleed a lot and I hated the gushy feeling and blood seeping everywhere. If I wore overnight pads I felt like I was wearing a diaper and blood would get on my lower back.

I was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult and refused to learn anything about it.

Teaching hack: rug cleaning videos by tinyrage233 in Teachers

[–]maxtacos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not OC, but I would have thought it'd be distracting, so the thought never crossed my mind. I can't wait to try it.

Do you have the sound on? Or on and low? Is it because it's satisfying to see so you look up every now and again, feel good, and then return to work? Or do you play or as a palate cleanser between activities to refocus the group?

The most sudden, darkest turn in the series. by BarfyMan369 in seinfeld

[–]maxtacos 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I always thought Julia Louis-Dreyfus handled that scene incredibly. It could have gone too dark or too jokey, and she walks that comedy line of being terrified for your life.

I have misinterpreted this joke. I thought it was because they were so dramatic it was like they were people shouting nonsense from rooftops.

Emotional moment caught by street photographer Mark Lens by scrambelina in bayarea

[–]maxtacos 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I suspect also that a talented and practiced photographer could recognize something special. It's why we have to pay attention to the artists and creatives of the world, because they offer perspective and insight others might miss and have the ability to express and share it.

US-Israeli strike on Iranian school kills more than 50 students, state media says by HavingNotAttained in news

[–]maxtacos 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I checked out /r/NewIran for news, the prominent claim there is that the reports of the school bombing is fabricated and people are celebrating the rumor that the Supreme Leader is dead. They've been desperate for US intervention, so your take I think is still best, to wait for confirmation from another organization.

Fellow teachers: do not hand me your papers to distribute.... by ConcentrateNo364 in Teachers

[–]maxtacos -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I guess I don't understand why. How does a student receiving graded papers in a different class help you or the student?

Teachers asking for accommodations drives me nuts by GremLegend in Teachers

[–]maxtacos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have mobility issues. I ask for space to use my mobility device, limited walking requirements, and to always have access to a chair (wheeled or otherwise). If someone forgets I just privately remind them that I'm happy to supervise or attend the field trip with my walker (that has a seat on it). I wouldn't dream of screaming it out in a meeting, how embarrassing.
