Pariah Posted December 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2022 We got some snow last night between midnight and 0500. The district we live in has opted to shift to distance learning today. (There no such thing as an old-fashioned snow day any more. All the students have school-issued Chromebooks now, and by designating it a distance learning day, we don't have to make it up later.) The district I work in, however, is still going in person today, albeit with a delayed start time. So I'm headed out in a few minutes. Wish me luck!

Pariah Posted December 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2022 The high school I graduated from all those years ago won their first state football title today. When I was a senior, the team didn't want a single game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had nothing to do with how awful they were. 2) Correlation is not necessarily causation. 3) ...yes, that's right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 I advise moving to the New Zealand mountains and see of one of the keas will adopt you. As far as civilization is concerned, you're done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 Well, I suppose you could also change your major to something content-free where nothing is expected of you. Like, say, Sport & Exercise Science. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 One section is doing so catastrophically poorly that I can only understand it if just about everyone is taking the pass-fail option (something which is invisible to the instructors). All they need is a D-minus to pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted December 9, 2022 Report Share Posted December 9, 2022 Consistency is a wonderful thing. The person who got 2 out of 100 on the midterm got 3 out of 160 on the final, which is given the integer arithmetic is perfectly in line with expectations.
