Why teachers drink

[limr]

“Meaning, make more higher fines. More police alert of who's littering and who's not. Make a bill about it. If not people are just going to keep on doing it. They need to take more action about this trash and littering. They meaning the law, president, police, the house of Rep, the 3 branches, all the above need to take more action and be more serious. If not people will not care nor pay attention and just keep throwing trash and littering everywhere. Something really has to be done soon that is my opinion.”

The current batch of papers in front of me aren't quite this bad, but I still feel the need to pour myself a stiff drink!

I tend to use a different quote with my students: "Life is hard. It's harder when you're stupid."

(Oft credited to John Wayne, but apparently it is traced back to Steven Keats playing Jackie Brown in a 1973 film, The Friends of Eddie Coyle. Now you know.)

A buddy of mine was big on quoting the Dalai Lama for a while. One night he quotes the Lama again like it's something truly deep when really it's pretty much something you'd find in your average fortune cookie. His girlfriend is pretty fed up with it and they start arguing about how wise these stuff really is, so he asks me what I think. I told him well anything you had to hump your keester up a huge mountain to get is bound to sound pretty wise at the time. Face it, if the guy had a blog nobody would give a crap what he had to say.

Haven't heard from my buddy since.. lol. Oh well.

Your story reminds me of a commercial for LifeSavers from... - I think it was in the 80s. A guy climbed a really tall mountain, gets to the snowy top to ask the guru what the meaning of life is. The guru says it's some flavor of LifeSavers. They guy says something like, "I'm sorry, but cherry LifeSavers are not the meaning of life." The guru says, "They're not? Or is it Wint-o-green?"

You have to assign a grade to this plonk? :shock:

I am so sorry. Honestly. How do you address this? What can you say?

Bottoms up, sister!

Like my dad used to sing to me as a kid: "You can't eat rutabagas in the morning, you know that it just ain't right."

Apparently at least 8.64 million people still care (still a smidgeon below Ludacris, though)

I'm so relieved it's not you, drinking and thinking and talking like this...

This guy would give your student an A+:


Maybe sad Native American dude can get his own twitter, like the Dalai Lama, and team up with the police to get the ball rolling on that whole neighborhood litterer public police alert idea.
