Haha, especially if it matches how you've already learned them! :)

Did you go to Montessori school? They learn to count using sets of beads that are different colors. For example: 5 is represented by a bar composed of five, light blue beads. Some children who go to Montessori school will associate 5 with light blue and so on.

Similarly, I had a friend who believed speed bumps were places that angry parents buried their bad children.

Well, probably Santa Claus. That was pretty ridiculous.

What's that supposed to mean? This sounds snarky to me.

My cat makes cookies on my stomach whenever it hurts! And she makes it feel better! I thought she was just magical.

My boyfriend has a thing for Applegate from Married... With Children, circa season 3. And I agree.

I hope so too, although that isn't the first place my mind went to.

Thanksgiving sliders are where it's at.

You're brilliant.

I understand. I'm a preschool teacher and sometimes I just wait for my break to come so I can walk out the door and burst into tears. I wouldn't trade my job for anything, but FUCK is it frustrating.

YESSSSSS. You got my COTD vote!

Yes. The VP was the saving grace in that story, by all means. I teach children and I am so sensitive to their embarrassment. Your teacher had no idea what he was doing.

Whoever sent in Cruel Mr. C — that made me really sad for you. I teared up over here.

ME TOO! That was my exact thought when I read the story here on Jezebel. Totally YM.

I thought so, too. It might just be slowed down.
