Sounds like a prank to me. Something for tiktok clout.

The real schad will be when he gets hit with a misconduct warning because presumably he's in a registered class and connected under his real name while performing his 'hilarious' prank.

Except then it's double schad because the instructor wasn't even competent enough to figure out who to mute, so the education system will certainly be too incompetent to actually enforce policy, and then they get dogpiled by copycats.

UNLESS the entire thing, including the instructor, was staged for internet points. Which is entirely too possible.

BUT THEN there might be copycats that are dumb enough to do it in a live class while logged into their registered profile, and it brings us back to real schad :v:

Someone once asked us what we thought of the name "Anis", like "Star Anise" but on a baby girl instead of a spice.

We were like "You can't name your baby anus. No, seriously. You can't." and she argued with us a bit then dropped it. Later she claimed she was making a joke, ha ha got you guys good huh!

This is from a few pages of derail ago now but I just wanted to chime in to say that Half Life: Alyx has taught me that I should never throw a real grenade or pretty much exactly this is going to happen.

I'm so glad the game quietly restocks the grenades for you during the section where you have to chuck one into an overhead vent because it took a good dozen tries. I also had one incident where the VR controller didn't properly let go of the grenade so I tossed it, realized it was still in my hand going beepbeepbeepbeep and did a panic throw that resulted in losing my grip on the controller entirely :v: (the grenade still exploded in my hand in the game...)

Schad on me I suppose.

I did successfully scoop up a trooper's grenade and toss it back at him once and that was awesome, though.

That's why I don't buy litter in cardboard, give me those plastic buckets with the snap-down lid that takes an act of god to pry open.

Schad would be when the moderately lovely handle breaks and you drop 35 lbs of litter on your foot.

Self-schad: We did a pandemic apocalypse-shop at Costco which included buying two 50lb boxes of cat litter because pandemics do not stop cats from making GBS threads in your house even if you don't want to go out. They shifted during the drive and when I opened the truck door two of them slid out and my dumb rear end reflexively stuck my leg out to stop them from falling out.

Turns out that just results in 100lbs of cat litter boxes landing on your leg. I had a nice bruise on my shin for probably three weeks after, and reflected on how loving stupid it would have been to have to go to the ER during a pandemic for breaking my leg trying to catch a cat litter box.

In my daily review of spending, I noticed my monthly Netflix bill had increased by 7%. Upon further digging, it turns out that even though I'm an Alberta resident they had charged me BC PST. Should be easily resolved, but upon contacting Netflix, after asking for my location the agent then wrote: "I just want to verify if Alberta is part of British Columbia?" Oh boy. After politely informing her that no, Alberta is not part of BC, I waited another 10 minutes for her to confirm: "We have verified that your location is not part of British Columbia." Thanks, Netflix.
