This is something that baffles me as a bit of an outsider (disclosure: am man) - I got into a minor debate with someone on here a while back when I claimed that it’s difficult to call yourself a feminist and at the same time avidly consume fashion mags that exist to shame women into buying product. Another poster…

WTF at all the incarnations of ‘selfie’?! STOP IT, STOP IT NOW! It’s out of control and makes me want to stab someone (usually the person using the word).

I don’t give a good goddamn about what kind of animal? Her suffering gets no sympathy from me if she must make herself “feel better” by hoarding exotic animals and continuing to take part in the cruelty that is the exotic animal trade. Plus, dogs and cats make wonderful therapy animals, millions upon millions of them…

Dammit, don’t you hate it when you turn down Molestation Avenue when you really meant to hang a left on Not Being a Fucking Monster Lane? Goddamn MapQuest, I tell you what...

No thank you please.

For $7.5 million I’ll gaze at my own navel for days.

Yeah kind of agree with you on that one

More power to them, and for those of you who enjoy reading these types of things, knock yourself out, but this sounds like a terrible, terrible book.

Technically, new words enter the English language all the time since it’s constantly evolving. But I refuse to allow these words. They don't exist.

Ok, so maybe they are “officially” “allowed” but these words will not be permitted in any game of scrabble that I am a part of.

LOTSA? LOTSA???

It’s fine to poke fun. I “vape” too but I find it hilarious the amount of dudes I know who just can't stop talking about this ~*culture of vape bro*~

Right? With that, one of the Mom’s on my FB is asking what she should get her son for middle school graduation. Huh? Are kids getting gifts for that now? It’s funny because she complains that millenials are special snowflakes, yet here she is, giving her kid a gift for something silly.

We had an 8th grade formal dance at the end of the year that was adamantly not called prom. I remember A Talk from the principal to the whole class about how this was a formal dance but was not prom and we should absolutely not buy “prom” style dresses or beg for limos, etc. It was weird in a way but totally normal…

Learning moment right there.

I told my high school kids “don’t tell anyone” several times. Contexts: (1) letting some of the kids, who were targets for bullies, eat lunch in my classroom, with me supervising, which was Not Allowed; (2) letting a kid make up a test for an unexcused absence [district policy was that they got a 0] because I thought…

I find this the most offensive. If you are going to run a cheap motel out of your classroom, at least make sure the sex is safe.

When will they jail the person who came up with 8th grade prom?
