This guy beat up an ally who was abusing children and was discharged. Ridiculous.

3: A lot of the writers are gone, too. Mark Shrayber used to write all of the HDuff stuff. I miss him.

Is it me, or is there a lot less content on Jez right now? I finish reading and then I’m like, what now? What do I do with myself?

It SO is.

I love you forever for making me aware of this word.

I thought of it as an angry student venting board. Kind of like Yelp. If you have a bad experience, you comment. Most of my comments were from kids who had been told they were the second coming of Shakespeare their whole life, and then had a wake up call when I gave them a B or (GASP!) C on a paper. They were allowed…

I love learning about cultural differences. I used to teach English via Skype to students in South Korea. They were informed that asking about age was INCREDIBLY TABOO, which I guess it is a little, but not when the person you are asking is 22. The students would always ask me my age, and then their teachers would get…

These tweets remind me of Rate My Teacher, which I LOVED reading when I taught. Here’s a gem from one of my former pupils: “She doesn’t know how to control her students. She’s a harsh and unfair grader. But she’s a nice person.”

But I would like to point out that Vogue would be paying for food and drink, and that should be taken advantage of.

YES! More, everyone!

You made me witch cackle. Everybody needs to submit one.

Does it still count as yellowface if it’s voice actors? There is a new movie coming out, Kubo and the Two Strings, with Asian characters played almost exclusively by white people. I’m reaaaaaaaaally bugged about it.

I was just thinking how my Vogue interview would sound. “She held a fried chicken sandwich in one hand, and applied ranch dressing to each bite before she took it. She wore her Peggy uniform: stained TOMS, a toe peeking out through one hole, a V-neck t-shirt, and skinny jeans with her toddler’s PlayDoh mashed into the…

That dancing scene made me ill. So, so creepy.

She showed ‘em real good in the end.

The book it’s based on is also called “In the Heart of the Sea,” and it is DISTURBING. It’s not like Moby Dick at all. Dudes eating each other, graphic descriptions of what happens to your body if you drink seawater, other nastiness. I’m getting the jibblies just thinking about it, and I read that book ten years ago.…

But have you tried it? It’s kind of awesome.

I think it was to keep the jelly from soaking through? White bread, buttered on one side, grape jelly, peanut butter. I didn’t even LIKE peanut butter as a kid, and I ate them

My aunt used to butter the insides of our pb&js. Delicious.
