I doubt it.

I believe some celebrities have tried to take legal action against Daniel Edwards, that pop artist - with oddly conservative leanings - who does sculptures of subjects like Britney Spears giving birth on a bearskin rug, Paris Hilton as a dissected corpse, Oprah as a nude Egyptian Pharaoh, etc, and failed.

Oh my God, give it a rest. I like her.

First, I never had a complaint, dumb-ass. I asked a question.

All this. I don’t know how good music became only about just having a perfect voice. So many past greats had interesting voices rather than the technically perfect voices, but these days it’s “oh you don’t sound like Beyonce/random big voiced singer? You’re not a real singer then.”

Exactly. It’s not enough to have perfect pitch and whatever number of octave range. Good even great technical singers are a dime a dozen. For me it’s all about character. Does your voice have unique elements that are enjoyable and make you stand apart from the throng of other singers. Rhianna’s voice has those things…

Coldplay’s Chris Martin referred to Rihanna as “the Frank Sinatra of our generation.” Lots to unpack there.

I didn’t see any vaginas so why would there be dicks?

They are bookending the picture.

“One thing his dad neglects to mention is that he enabled his son for years and possibly introduced him to alcohol at a young age. Plus he put unimaginable pressure on him to be a football player.”

I feel so bad for Johnny Manziel’s father. What a terrible thing to have to see, the deterioration of your own child, and you can't do anything about it.

I’m going to point out that you have three teachers disagreeing with you on this.

A good teacher meets their students where they are at. If your high school students do not know how to proofread, ideally you would teach them. If they are poor spellers, there are ways to remediate that. At any rate, it is very unprofessional to speak that way about students.

Yes! It’s so important. It effects prosody and intonation so much, not to mention semantics.

Or would a comment on the paper and a reduced grade be sufficient?

As could yours. It’s called McLean’s Law: any attempt at grammar flaming will always include a grammar error. Nice job.

I'm sorry about that. I want to be the type of teacher who builds my students up.

Eh, mocking to other teachers via an online system (which in every district I’ve always been in is for PROFESSIONAL TALK ONLY since we have to act like everything paid for by taxpayers is fair game for the news) is public.

This is the kind of unprofessional shit you get when you have only young, inexperienced, sometimes virtually untrained people working in charters. I love young teachers, but you need some olds around to teach them the ropes (and how to not be a complete dick to frustrating kids).

Yeah. In my opinion it’s not just about venting, it’s about the kind of comments they’re making. And these comments are fucking juvenile. They sound like whiny kids themselves.

At times, teachers do need to vent about students. It can be frustrating and wearing at times. The difference is we don’t wish them to fail or mock them for not knowing things. The things they were saying move past the line of venting to being mean. Frankly, they were dumb as hell to write it down.
