One of my elementary schools banned Pokemon cards because a kid got his arm broken in a fight over them. Which, y'know, fair.

This is broadly the same reason my local Target won't sell... I think NBA trading is cards or something like that any more.

None of my schools banned Mario or Pokémon or anything growing up, but they tried to ban Crazy Bones since kids in our class would fight over the rare ones. None of us listened though so they gave up.
I didn’t go to a religious school, but two of my high school math teachers at the tiny charter school I went to were hardcore evangelicals and would sometimes preach their beliefs during class. We quickly realized that we could get out of classwork by pitting our senior year math+physics teacher against the resident 2000s style atheist kid and letting them argue the whole time.
Also said math teacher had a poster of Obama that he would throw darts at.

I brought my Pokémon cards to school once and a teacher took them away and I cried so much she felt bad for me and let me have them back under the condition I never bring them to school again. Welp that’s my Pokémon card story thanks for listening :)

I love how the whole c-spam witchcraft thread started because clockwork chaos was pitching herself to be a c-spam IK in a feedback thread, and she thought it'd be a good gimmick for probes.

clockwork chaos posted:

Im deffo not smart
i need to get back into witchy tarot readings and poo poo, would be a fun probe gimmick

she then started posting daily tarot readings for c-spam in the thread for the next week or so. and doing individual readings and stuff.

combine some or many to make them even more powerful

the only non-catholic swear i can think of in french is merde lol

whew finished the ppj recap so did we ever get the epic list of outed and executed nazis that he and KM and Jeffrey insisted had happened at the time or what

I can confirm that there was an actual list, but I don't think it ever got publicly circulated, especially since a bunch of fake lists started popping up out of the ether.

The only name I can recall that was on there that I knew was already permabanned at the time user Dilbert as gently caress, which was the least surprising reveal in the world :geno:

I have a nephew who my partner's sister pulled out of public school because "they're terrible" and instead decided to send to Catholic school on a voucher. I get that the public schools probably are sub-par (not a great neighborhood in Indianapolis) and I think my nephew understands that the religious stuff is all bunk, but the whole thing is just :psyduck:

Oh, and both my partner's family and I were raised second generation Unitarian Universalist and there's no Catholic background whatsoever.

I think that somehow the belief was that a ton of people were posting on SA normally, no fash or alt-right stuff, but were supposedly on other sites as hardcore racists. That somehow them being able to post and view on SA was part of a massive far reaching conspiracy to doxx and harass trans posters.
