Ah. yeah It doesn't compare nod

Much not right, there.

BRB

Back; Thing room inspection. Thing1's is CONSIDERABLY less funky.

He vanquished the tuna fish sandwiches mouldering under the laundry pile?

More like the dirty socks IN the laundry pile, and the weeks old sheets on the bed, and he showered.... but yes.

Many miles away, Frank feels the need to DRINK HEAVILY.

Please, he's been feeling that already!

Waiit till Siv has the talk

Okay, fair enough...but this time it's not Siv. When she does talk with him, he's going to think this was a premonition!

He's going to have SUCH a headache.

PBEM is doing The Thing.

Bad PBEM

sigh Student wrote a VERY good essay about coming to America from Mexico...but much of it is about how she came over illegally. I have to tell her she can't use it as her college essay because it will be a public document, and she'll be setting up her family to be deported.

*nod* Yes.

Oh poor kid. Rock and hard place

Seriously. And it's a GOOD essay... sigh

"So this friend of mine...." ?? Nah. Won't work.

There may be ways around that particular detail so she can still tell the bulk of her experience, but so much of it is about exploitation of illegal immigrants.

And we see why Pseudonyms are still useful, though I doubt it will help in school to do that

Sure, but you can't really benefit from a college application essay if your name isn't connected with it.

Yeah.

Mr. D, can you start new PBEM thread so we don't start three of them at once? 😉

Okay

New one should be up

Boom Key???

I can't wait to see what she's riding.

Well, until now

A woman and all!

Oh, boy...Siv's going to be the death of him. Or at least the maiming.

Well, she tried being you know, working around it

"Frank, what happened to you?"
"I talked to Siv."
"Oh."

Damn Trump. Poor kiddo.

Well, it would have been the case under any recent administration.

still

GROAN And then another student comes out with this opening line: "I will never receive the same hospitality anywhere else than a home of a non-white person’s house."

wow

Same essay: "This is a trend I’ve noticed, because every house of a person of color seems so welcoming, it's just part of their culture."

There are other ways to phrase that.

*waves flag* Yeah. I need a nap.

headdesk headdesk headdesk White kid assuming all people of color have one culture.

Well, like... aren't they all mexiblackistanian.... and a quarter Sioux?

You...are helpfully amusing, sir.
