Well fuck me I guess.

Some of these are valid to ban (the sex and manosphere ones) but others just seem like they're trying to ban slang.

If it's an language/literature class, maybe it would make sense to ban slang

[–] [email protected] 4 points 54 minutes ago (1 children)

Ban using slang in writing makes sense, but controlling how students can speak is just ridiculous.

I agree. Thinking more about it, if you look at the board it shows hand written, a typo count. Which may indicate it is a typing class. Thereby they would be possibly teaching professional typing for a work environment.

So telling users not to talk about pop culture, use slang, emojis, and memes would make sense in that environment.

I personally prefer to use some, but knowing how not to and "knowing your audience" would depict when it is or is not appropriate. So teaching students to say type a professional email/cover letter/resume/response would make sense to ban such. 🤷 <Devils advocate I suppose. Sorry, been a rough week

What the fuck is a Darius noise?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

It’s code for no hootie and the blowfish

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 hours ago

I too wish to know.

I hope it's like kids mimicking Darius from league of legends, but I doubt that. Like irl emote spam, lol.

So, Japanese?

As a weeb, that teacher would have skinned me alive and wore my face.

Note the conspicuous lack of traditional swear words on this list.

If I were a kid in this class, I would've abused the hell out of that loophole. (And suffered the consequences, but finding and exploiting the technical ways to skirt a teacher's stupid rules was always worth it.)

Ruth is out on Front Street

That’s clearly not geography class. Or else the student wouldn’t be able to answer in what state is Cincinnati?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 28 minutes ago

There is no risk of that, because no one cares about ohio or Cincinnati. It is the most vanilla of room temperature things this world has on offer

What are Darius noises? "They will regret opposing me"?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 hours ago

Something about a wagon wheel.

"I do not tolerate cowardice"

NGL if I was a teacher, I might quote that if nobody raised their hand
