Sweat and Sour Chicken? I bet it's undercooked, as well!

Did you know...

A (US) quarter has 119 grooves on its edge. A (US) dime, even though it's smaller, has 118.

Mmmmm, sweaty chicken

 

[snowbear95]

Limr: It could be. So much for syntax checkers.

One helluva typo from an essay about whether or not animals can be 'friends' with people. (This was last semester)

Oh, I wish I had my file of typos and errors with me, but it's at work!

I once got an email from someone discussing the city's plan to end "chronic homelessness," only she mistakenly referred to it as the Plan to End Chronic Homeliness.

Yeah - 2600 posts. Sharon gets the prize.

I've got tons of them.

I used to have a hard time reading through some applicants statements and "blue books" (personal history statement); they had to be hand written.

And then there was the obituary in our local paper that actually published this:

"John Smith died unrepentantly on Thursday, March...."

The next day the obituary, said:
"John Smith died UNEXPECTEDLY on Thursday, March..."
Caps and bolding were actually included in the obit.

you're all just c r a zy!!!!!

Ah, Marija, it is what simple minds to to amuse themselves. However in this case all participating are actually reasonably complete in the intelligence department, but for unfathomable reasons decide to act as if they are of simple minds. Eh. In some ways, it's like watching the inner neural messaging of a brain, with little bits of kinda related, kinda random bits of stimulation zigging here and there... Except that in this case, we have several brains dumping their kinda spastic-looking semi-conscious thought-streaming onto the world-wide internet for the rest of us to examine. On the other hand, it's interesting. We're seeing quite a bit of photography here (and there - seems to pop up in spurts), and some to the posts veer into kinda-profound territory, and there are more than a few chuckles. Who knows? maybe this is actually a social experiment that we're all unwitting participants in?

When I was applying for state teaching certification in NY, I put in all my paperwork, did all the tests, had all my ducks in a row.

Got a letter from the fine folks who are in charge of education for the state, telling me that I still needed 6 credits of classes for teaching literacy.

Misspelled 'literacy' every single time.

Actually, this is pretty much what it's like in my head, All. The. Time. So maybe this is just my chance to finally get all this random, useless cr*p out of my head. But the harder I try to get it all out, the more keeps coming in, so it's not really working.

I blame the raw chicken.

 

[limr11]

That was when I decided that I did not want these folks as my bosses in Albany and I did not pursue the certification.

There was more to it than that, but it really did drive home the point that what I did in the classroom would have been dictated by folks far away who have probably never stepped foot in a classroom, and ain't nobody got time for that sh!te.

 

[pgriz]

I don't remember you eating raw chicken. Want to tell us about it?

I'm not sure if this is a compliment or not . . . I just want to get a crap-load of posts in before the end of the month.
