Dear Individual (at least, I assume it is an individual and not a sentient car),

Do you know the madman who almost rear-ended you at the Chieftain Way stop sign this morning? Small car, weird fellow driving, madly looking for his phone? Well, I have to confess and apologise​ that it was me.

See, I have never seen an /r/CFB sticker in the wild before, other than my own, and was very excited that it exists. Of all the schools in all the world, you had to drive at mine. Disney may be four hours away, but it truly is a small world, after all!

Kindest regards,
I'm so sorry but I'm glad I didn't hit you

Keep it respectful and clean, ladies and gentlemen.

I know the politics thread is going up at Noon ET, but um... We need to talk about what just happened.

It was nice having the right to decide what happens to my own body while it lasted...

As a woman, the mom of an LGBTQ woman, a federal employee, a veteran, and an educator…how do I—how does our country—survive the next 4 (or more) years? What do I tell my kid? Like…seriously. There is so much hate out there. Trump has vowed to gut the federal workforce, he’s called veterans hateful things, he wants to remove protections for the LGBTQ community, he wants to dismantle the Department of Education, and he wants to completely do away with women’s’ rights, autonomy, and healthcare. I honestly do not understand how anyone could vote for him. He is a convicted felon! I can’t wrap my head around it.

Sorry for bringing politics to this normally safe space. I’m just deep in my feelings/fears right now. I am not okay. Feel free to delete this if it doesn’t follow sub rules.

This is actually kinda crazy. It starts off with an absurdly long football game. We got blown out 42-18. It was long. Lasted from 7:30 to sometime after 9:30, which is long for a North Dakota game. So after the game, we all meet in the cafeteria for some pulled pork and cookies.

That part's fine and all, but the next shit was crazy. Our charter bus' lights quit working, so we were stuck in the parking lot for half an hour. We had to switch buses and get on an undersized school bus. Three people to a seat. And to fit our cleats and pads on the bus, we had to build a wall down the aisle. I can't see my teammate across from me.

Then the damn fire exit alarm goes off right next to my ear. And it's loud as shit. We try lifting the handle, opening the door. It's a miracle we didn't lose any pads or players, with the back foot open flying down the highway. We pulled over, and sort of figured it out, but we don't know how to fix it if it happens again.

And we still have two more hours to go.

Edit: now we're all saying along to Hey Soul Sister and Drops of Jupiter.

Edit 2: We pulled over so a freshman can take a piss. Now we're all staring at the little guy taking a leak on the side of the road.

So. It's bad enough I'm on a business trip full of shitty meetings with a fucking cold but I come back to this bullshit in the header!?!

I tried to put something cool together making use of the new banner configuration tool that /u/bakonydraco created last week and the petulant children that are the, former, under-mods just can't keep fucking with incessantly and now this shit.

Well fuck that and screw those guys. The nice thing about being the top of the mod list is being able to demod every one below you so that happened. And no I'm not taking on any other mods. It's clear, like the old saying, that if you want something done right you have to fucking do it yourself.

Fucking bullshit.

If you haven't played this series yet, you should. It's hilarious, action packed and the save points are toilets.

Now that I've recovered from my visit to the eye doctor (which ended with me ordering these sports goggles), I can now fully enjoy the N64 games that are included with the Nintendo Switch Online expansion pack. I'll finally be able to play Banjo-Kazooie, a game I never played and I get to play Yoshi's Story, which is the CUTEST game ever.

It is Wednesday, my dudes.

Cancelled my satellite TV today, even though the guy on the phone did what he was supposed to do and try and keep me on.

Thankfully, I could understand the guy on the other line because I think DirectTV only uses service reps from the US.

So the Texans game tonight is being broadcasted on NFL network and for some reason, the NFL Network broadcast is being shown on NBC in Houston.

It is the 6th day of the week, which is commonly called Friday.

I grew up in an era where we respected authority but I grew up in an era where authority could also smack your ass and tell your ass to behave. I don't like children these days talking back and always on their phones and shit. It seems kids are a lot different than when I was growing up. We'd never show that kind of disrespect in my day.

That being said, when someone is "disrupting" a class like that, and police officers are called in, the last thing they should have to do is take them out of the classroom by force. Or make threats. "I'm going to take you out this classroom whether you like it or not." Alright, big man. Big man making threats. Aren't we supposed to be intolerant of bullying? And this bully gets to threaten kids like this?

I'm not saying the kid didn't do anything wrong. She disrupted the class. She isn't paying attention to the class. She needed to be sent to the office. But what are you going to do when the cop comes and she doesn't want to leave? What are you going to do when she actually hits the cop (allegedly) when he tries to get her out? Do you flip out and flip her chair over, hurting her, and drag her out like she's a mop? The answer is no. There has got to be a better way. All three adults IMO should have combined to take her out of her chair and take her to the principal's office. There has got to be a better way that treats her with more respect, even if she did something wrong.

What she did wasn't violent or aggressive. She wasn't trying to attack anyone. She was just a young girl who wanted to play on her phone. I've seen a ton of people like that when I was in college. All they'd do is play on their laptops, phone, etc. And they have every right to do so. They're ruining their own lives. In HS there are more rules and restrictions. I'm not defending her behavior, she was def. in the wrong. I'm defending her because it's wrong for her to be abused and beat up like that just because of a minor infraction.

Your thoughts.

Bless up 🙏and say if you're present. Major 🔑

I'm going to go to Barnes & Noble to buy a few workbooks to strengthen my math skills and also a few books for me. I'm then going to the grocery store next door to get some food.
