How could anyone convince themselves that that was somehow a story of revenge? Unless they're 12 or something, and think that if somebody brings something to your house you're compelled to purchase it, no matter what. "I sent a pizza to some guy with some instructions the delivery guy would never have paid any attention to. It got sent out. Presumably the guy either likes hot stuff and so purchased and enjoyed it, or sent it back. Hot. Stuff." The only person that would have been annoyed in this fake story is the delivery guy.

Yeah! I got revenge by mildly inconveniencing someone by making them have to get up, answer the door, and then say they didn't order pizza. Then a pizza goes to waste and the company eats the loss. GOT YOU! The toppings don't even make sense. Jalapenos and hot sauce, okay, a hot as hell pizza. Bell peppers aren't hot at all you idiot.

e: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Which would make him wrong. Bell peppers are delicious, even by themselves!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mhAPrBddfM Look at the chairman's face after eating that pepper. That's a man who knows and loves his peppers. Tatum Girlparts posted:Yea combined with thinking a pizza is the ultimate revenge the whole 'bell peppers are spicy right' factor just screams that that person legitimately eats so few veggies they don't understand what one of the most common ones is. And I bet Dominos has banana peppers as an option too (no idea, I'm lactose intolerant so I don't eat pizza), but his lack of vegetable knowledge came back to haunt him it seems. If someone did that to me, I'd eat the pizza and send them photos of me enjoying it. I love spicy food, and would at least give that pizza a try. I want someone to prank order me some food. It would honestly be a nice surprise, provided it was something I can eat. booshi has a new favorite as of 20:33 on Jun 30, 2013 |

Bell peppers are mostly bleh  They're acceptable in some occasions but that's it, no matter how much the chairman likes them. (I guess that guy just saw "pepper")quote:(I am teaching a drama class, and we are playing a game called Sneaky Statues where the kids freeze and then change poses when I am not looking.) Shouldn't a drama teacher know how to make at least halfway natural dialogues ? How can I show I'm an awesome teacher ? Hey, let's make a reference to a really popular episode from a popular series young people watch. quote:(This professor is really tough, but gives weekly quizzes that are on a curve so that at least one person in the class always gets a 100%.) quote:(We’re a group of freshman girls. We are eating dinner in the dining hall when a cute older boy approaches our table.) That joke is so old I don't even know what decade called to get it back.

This just shows that television jokes do not always translate well into real life.

Fathis Munk posted:Student 1: *whispering to class* “Everybody just write your name, leave the rest blank and we’ll all get perfect scores.” Whispering to... the entire class? Who answer in unison? I'm trying to picture this scene and I just can't imagine how it could work. It doesn't even make sense as a strategy because giving everyone 100%'s on a quiz doesn't affect your final letter grades if the class is curved. Fathis Munk posted:Professor: “[Student #2], you got an 80%. When you make a decision, stick with it. Everybody else gets a 100%. However, this is the first and only time this will work.” "You actually took the quiz as intended? gently caress you, it's time for you to learn to never think critically about any of your decisions ever and to just assume your first instinct was always 100% correct."

The difference is that when my anthropology teacher goes 'what was the name of those people that do...uh...um...steampunks!' the whole class doesn't applaud and we don't get married. What happens is I let out a big dumb laugh and everyone looks at me and I feel awkward.

Fathis Munk posted:"Also never resist peer pressure I guess." In college, I had an art history class at 8:30 am Friday morning. As this entailed sitting in a warm, dark room looking at slides while listening to someone talk, my fellow students would fall asleep quite often. The (awesome) professor's solution was to go up behind the sleeping student, and do a perfect Hannibal Lecter -FFFFFF- sound in their ear. Once the student woke up he would go right back to the lecture without missing a beat.

quote:(This professor is really tough, but gives weekly quizzes that are on a curve so that at least one person in the class always gets a 100%.) Wait, how would that work? If he grades on a curve by bumping the highest grade to a 100, wouldn't Student #2 get a 100% and the rest of the class get 20%, since their quizzes were incomplete? Why does he still give 100s to the rest of the class that didn't even loving take the quiz, but marks down the one student who did? What point was the author trying to make here, that you should always follow the group and do whatever they do? Seems contrary to what most STDH authors want to portray.

Recently I've become fascinated with Wayne Allyn Root, former Vice Presidential candidate for the Libertarian Party, and all-around greasy snake-oil salesman. The man is every late 80's businessman stereotype given flesh. Barely-restrained egomania? Check. Spewing buzzwords while sounding coked off his gourd? Check. Constantly bragging about how much money he has and writing self-help books so you, too can be a millionaire? Check. He's a relatively obscure figure, politically, despite being on the ballot for the 2008 election. Odds are, unless you listen to a lot of right-wing radio, the only time you will have ever heard of him was from a recent interview he conducted with The Daily Show, where he strongly complained about being "profiled" and audited by the government, while appearing to be very dismissive of any profiling on racial, ethnic or religious grounds. Needless to say, it wasn't a very flattering interview. Now, there have been plenty of instances where people interviewed by The Daily Show come out afterwards and accuse the show of taking what they say out of context. While it's reasonable to believe that The Daily Show's editors do a little bit of stretching of the truth, Wayne Allyn Root angrily accused them of actual fraud. And his version of events dives straight into STDH territory: quote:... This guy's just a goldmine of blatantly making poo poo up. Listen and be amazed as he recounts being "snuck in" to Harvard to give a speech extolling conservative values to a room full of 400 liberal students, who all gave him a standing, roaring ovation afterwards!

Given that nobody did the quiz, everybody but that one kid should get a 0 base score, and that kid should get an 80. Because the mean would be basically 80/30 or w.e., and that one kids score is so far above the mean, the kid who did the exam should get basically 100% scaled and the other kids should get whatever (I'm guessing the mean, or slightly below, I'm not sure). This is stupid. That one kid should get basically 100% and everybody else should be getting lovely grades. The author has no idea how scaling works. Yes yes, I know, its almost as if it didn't happen, but christ.

booshi posted:This was posted just up earlier on this page. Yeah, but my point was that that 80% was the highest grade in the class. The author laughing at the guy who did the exam and got an 80 really shouldn't be, because the author got a 0% on that exam, which now counts for nothing because at least one person did the exam properly. Like, the point of the story is completely different to what the author thinks it is - work hard even if nobody around you is doing it. But no the professor seems to want to encourage laziness. The author of this has never stepped foot inside a university.

booshi posted:This was posted just up earlier on this page. You'll have to forgive me if scaling is unclear to me, most of my college professors didn't do it. But, from what the story says, the teacher scales the highest quiz to a 100, then scales the rest of the tests in proportion. So, if the one guy turned in his quiz and it was graded, he got an 80. That would be scaled to a 100, and the rest of the class' zeros would be scaled in proportion to the 80, to around a 20% or so. No professor would support a bunch of dumbfuck students who tried to loophole their way out of taking a challenging quiz. In reality, he would definitely support the one student who did the test and punish the rest of the class for being sneaky assholes, not the one student who actually played by the rules. Here's what probably Actually Happened: the author is mad at his teacher for giving them hard quizzes every week. He tries to rally the class to all refuse to take the quiz with him, which of course none of them support, and is probably called an idiot by Student #2. He fumes and doesn't complete the quiz anyway, then goes home to write a revenge fantasy in which Student #2 is punished for siding with the rear end in a top hat teacher (who becomes a good guy somehow?) and he gets a 100. Here, here's STDH that's more in line with NAR morals: quote:(This professor is really tough, but gives weekly quizzes that are on a curve so that at least one person in the class always gets a 100%.)

Nothing is about curving grades (which, in your example would be exactly a 20%. That's absolute curving). The "point" the teacher was trying to get across was "When you make a decision, stick with it." Then states everyone else gets 100% for sticking to their decision to not complete the quiz. This is after the only student who completed the quiz had it graded and earned an 80%. I don't understand what is so confusing.In any academic setting every single student would get a zero.

I was saying what should have happened if the teacher hadn't decided to abandon his scaling policy to make a point about Standing Together Against Authority. If he had actually scaled the quizzes like the author states in the first sentence, the rest of the class would have failed because one student took the test. If no one took the test, they would all be scaled to a 100 (which is bullshit too) but because one student took the test, their grades would only be scaled in proportion to that student's test, giving them a failing grade. But, for some reason, that isn't what happens in the story. The teacher decides to not scale anything, and just randomly give all the lazy kids who didn't take their quizzes 100s, to make a point about not going back on your word. Even though the pact the students made was a stupid one, which no educator would ever, ever support. Do you see what I'm saying? I'm sorry, the story itself is already confusing and trying to explain what I mean is probably loving it up more.

I just found myself on the elevator. No idea how I got there, I just happened to be there by coincidence, but anyhow, I decided that since I was already on the elevator anyway, I may as well take it down one floor, because why not, you know? Besides, looking for stairs is hard and it's not like buildings make their stairs clearly labeled and easy to find for fire code reasons or ever place them right next to the elevators. P.S. if you think being so morbidly obese that you can't walk down a single flight of stairs is bad then you are FAT SHAMING which is just awful.
