Spirit of DMG Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 Hm. That's not a bad reason. No, not bad at all. Unless your contemplation is resentful, morbid, or hateful. In which case, it's very, very bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake the Sage Posted May 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 Teaching assistant at my mom's school. I'm not sure how it'll go, but the pay's good and that's all that matters to me. That sounds amazing. Close to what I am going to be doing when I get my degree I just hope there won't be too much misbehaving or whatnot because I suck at discipline. Just be careful. According to my step-mom you can't even really yell at students anymore without getting into trouble. Sad too because I was going to do the whole "holding water buckets outside the classroom" thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spirit of DMG Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 Yes. Sadly, we are increasingly living in a country where "Discipline" and "Abuse" are becoming synonymous. People need to get over themselves. There's a difference between giving a kid a spanking and child abuse. And it is a VERY huge difference and a quite well-defined line.

OH screw you (XD) D*mn and I the only one who is still working on getting their degree? Yes. Sadly, we are increasingly living in a country where "Discipline" and "Abuse" are becoming synonymous. People need to get over themselves. There's a difference between giving a kid a spanking and child abuse. And it is a VERY huge difference and a quite well-defined line. My Mom tried disciplining my brother but discovered it didn't work. My brother just cried for a few minutes then went right back doing what he got in trouble for. He only ever learned his lesson when he was put in time out because he can't stay still for more than a minute. I was the opposite. Since I have a big imagination I'd just end up playing with whatever I had on hand, even if it was four pencils or two, I could entertain myself and never learn the lesson. Being spanked on the other hand, that was something that stung and got the point across. Jackie . . . she was a tough nut to crack. If you put her in time out she just got pissed, if you spanked her she cried and then wouldn't talk to anyone. I the only way Mom ever got onto her was she had things taken away from her. But it just goes to show that there isn't just one solution to teaching your kid a lesson. I knew friends who never got spanked, yelled at, or had things taken away. Their parents kept them in line through humiliation by putting them through some pretty awesome pranks when you look back on it. And for a child growing up, being punked by your Mom and Dad is a sure fire way to kick you where it really hurts, your image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thar Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 OH screw you (XD) D*mn and I the only one who is still working on getting their degree? I am. I still got 2 years left, one of them being added on to take missed classes and retake failed classes. What really sucks is that the class I failed was the one class I had to pass last semester to earn my AutoCAD certificate. Now I need to wait 2 more years to get any form of educational proof for a better job. -_- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dood college was some of the best years of my life. All that crap they say happens in highschool, no, they were talking about college. You know EXACTLY what I'm talking about.

Fusion X. Denver Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 That sounds amazing. Close to what I am going to be doing when I get my degree Just be careful. According to my step-mom you can't even really yell at students anymore without getting into trouble. Sad too because I was going to do the whole "holding water buckets outside the classroom" thing Yeah, I had a bit of trouble with them today. Yesterday, they were all pretty good and it made for a good first day. Today though, they were all misbehaving, so that wore me out a bit. What I hate is when two of them tattle on each other with one saying he was pushed and the other saying he was lying. Just who the heck am I supposed to believe? I try to compromise wherever possible, but it doesn't feel like it always works. But whatever, I'm pretty sure today was a weird one-off compilation of mehness. I'm working on my degree. In what, I have no idea though :T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake the Sage Posted May 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Where are you attending now? I'm attending a community college in Orange Park. It's basically Jacksonville's suburb where all of the entertainment is. What I hate is when two of them tattle on each other with one saying he was pushed and the other saying he was lying. Just who the heck am I supposed to believe? Easy, you just punish both of them. I'm working on my degree. In what, I have no idea though :T What about publishing Trio of DEF? And I'm working on my teacher's degree which will take 4 years, 2 years before I can substitute. Tomorrow's my birthday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sploda Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 Sure, I'll help. *Changes shape of cake to that of a casket and the pizza is replaced by a seven course buffet.* There much better.

Jake the Sage Posted May 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 Also your present. *hands CHANGE TOPIC button wrapped in a bow* (=_=) *sighs* Fine, since apparently no one wants to celebrate we'll just change the topic to something else. Since I don't want to get back on the movie topic, I'll go with something similar in television shows. Has anyone seen the Animal Planet special "Mermaids: The New Evidence"?

The Warden Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 Oh that's a pity, I got her something nice too... oh well. Also, mermaids seem pretty unlikely until we either: !) Get a Mushroom War, @) Genetic Engineering becomes that good, or 3) We evolve to survive a mad scientist's successful attempt to flood the earth.

No Broken, it's a special that premiered on Animal Planet about the possibility that Mermaids already exist and that they have been filmed, documented and that some governments around the world cover up their existence to continue digging for oil and/or natural gases.

Spirit of DMG Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 A second Mermaid Special? I have seen "The Body Found," And I've read the national Ocean Service's deal that "No evidence of aquatic humanoids was ever found," and that the film was fiction, and all videos within were computer manufactured. Of course, throughout the whole film, these were the same guys who were trying to cover-up or destroy the evidence collected. And, the government in recent history doesn't have a decent track record of honesty.

And, the government in recent history doesn't have a decent track record of honesty. I'll admit that the idea of a aquatic humanoid is slim, but still possibly, since we do know more about the surface of the moon than what is under the sea (no pun intended), but the reactions in the videos leave a lot to be desired. I mean me specifically, if I had just video tapes a mermaid crawling back into the ocean I wouldn't be silent in awe just watching . . . I'd be screaming at the top of my lungs, "WHAT THE F*CK!? DID YOU GUYS JUST SEE- HOLY SH*T! WOW! MY F*CKING GOD THAT WAS A MERMAID!!!" etc. etc. you get the point. Anyway, Lora, for you, *brings out a statue of Vegeta made entirely out of various kinds of muffins* Uh thanks? [takes a piece of muffin and bites into it] Stale......
