Call me "pixeltits"

I had a professor say to a classroom full of freshmen that "certain people of a certain sexual orientation" should just keep it to themselves, because how dare they remind Old McWhiteman of their existence

He was also a jackass to the gay kid in class. Never said anything specifically about being gay, but insulted his work and humiliated him in front of everyone else. In an introductory English lit course for freshmen. Made the poor kid cry by saying that he'd never pass.

Instructors being garbage human beings definitely happens.

My friend from high school became a nuclear machinist for the navy. Nearly failed senior year physics because his calculator was unknowingly in radians instead of degrees for the entire semester, but made it up when the final was symbolic solutions only. I guess he fit right in.
At least learning in rads got him ready for nuke school :haw:

Is it really that strange? I can definitely remember waiting on the bus and the sun not being up or it at least be in the process of coming up. We started school at like 730 and the bus route took forever so they picked us up before 7am.

Poor, rural districts with few buses send those fuckers out at like 4:30 because they have a shitton of miles to cover.

Not that the ridiculously cringeworthy story actually happened, mind you.

Anyone who lives far enough north that in the winter the sun doesn't come up until past 8:30. I can remember coming home while the sun was starting to set too (and my schedule was not unusual; it's just that winter sun around here is from about 8:45 until 4:15, and as a side effect both sunrise and sunset are very long).

The rest of it is totally bullshit though.

I'll tell you another bus-related story that southern people don't believe happened.

I went to elementary and junior high school in Edmonton and Calgary. Snow days exist here, but the snow has to be real bad. However, a couple times I got a cold-weather day, and didn't have to go to school. This is because diesel engines don't operate when it gets too cold. It turns into a weird gel.

Apparently this can happen as high as about -15, but we had the cold weather diesel so it had to be below about -35.

Edit: To clarify this really did happen, though only a couple times before our family moved to Ontario. It's just that nobody who's never experienced it believes it.

Mine was the same, in a relatively nice suburban part of Orlando. I only took the bus to school one day while I was in high school, but the day started so early (classes started at 7:00 or 7:30) that the bus needed to pick people up before sunrise for most of the school year when Daylight Saving Time was in effect.

Just today I passed the school bus when driving to work this morning, and it was still dark.

My wife is an award winning brewer and writes a syndicated craft column and it's hilarious how often she gets talked down to / has things mansplained to her when ordering beer at bars.

That reaction is definitely STDH but the situation is certainly common.
