Something tells me this movie isn't going to have a happy ending. He wanted Get Out to have a bad one but did a 180.

The "bad" ending for Get Out is on the disk. It's on YouTube too.

Yeah, it is. It's just as bad as using a handicap spot.


It's probably worse. Parking in a handicapped zone doesn't up the chances other people bring fleas home. Im salty cause I got rid of fleas like 2 months ago and im pretty sure the neighbors dog just gave my dog fleas again

That's a pain in the ass. I had a girlfriend move into a place with fleas and she ended up with bites all over her legs. They had to bomb the place to get rid of them.

Yeah having worked with service, police, and explosive K9, I can say they aren't supposed to be petted when they have their vest on. It tells them they are working and to focus on specific commands.

IIRC high school refs get paid per game. In CA it was like $80 a game a few years ago. You take a class, then pass a test and you go into a pool that the league selects from. It's a side gig like coaching little league or Boy Scouts. Nobody does it as a full time job.

https://www.ibtimes.com/santa-claus-dies-kindergarten-party-suffered-heart-attack-2743838

A Russian "Santa Claus" suffered cardiac arrest and died during a New Years party in a kindergarten in Siberia, local news outlets reported Tuesday.

The 67-year-old actor, named Valery Titonenko, playing Ded Moroz or Father Frost the Russian version of Santa Claus was seen laughing and enthusiastically running after kids at the party in a video footage of the event in Kemerovo, Siberia, before suddenly freezing and falling backward. Up till that point, the mood in the party was joyful, with four-year-olds dressed up in costumes of bunnies and snowflakes, dancing around a brightly decorated Christmas tree, which in Russia is called a New Years tree.

The children were initially nervous reciting poems in front of Father Frost. However, the man with the white beard and mustache, wearing an enormous hat and a warm red-colored coat, soon lightened up their spirits by chasing them around the room. Even when he complained about pain in the chest and collapsed on the floor, giggling children approached him, thinking it was part of his act and anticipating him to get up any moment.

@ThyCorndog

Just remembered another teaching tool. Part of the job is answering questions of course but not all questions are equal. Sometimes students ask a question instead of thinking through the problem themself. If you get that feeling, turn the question back to the class.

Example: "Why is the sky blue?" Response: "That's a good question; "why is the sky blue?" Have we learned anything that suggests an answer?"

I don't know how things are so much in hard sciences but in social sciences it brings many minds to the problem and forces the student to think.

what did you teach, out of curiosity? I'm being given physics and astronomy courses

One more thing: Hold office hours in an office with the curtains open, doors open etc. or in a public place like a Starbuck or campus coffe shop. You want people around.

NEVER agree to a one-on one meeting at an isolated place. One of the guys I taught with was accused of harrassment when he met a woman behind closed doors in an unusual setting. Eventually it came out the woman falsely accused him but he went through hell.

He was trying to help her out and agreed to meet her at her apartment and created a he-said-she said situation.

As you know time management is part of being a student. Short of serious illness or death or something really extrordinary don't listen to the sob stories. You'll make the student better at time management and you'll save yourself from grading papers coming in late, incomplete, etc.

@ThyCorndog

Congratulations. I was an adjunct for about 8 years.

* First, don't overthink things it will only make you nervous.

* Think of the best professors you had. What made them effective? Until you develop your own classroom personality, emulate the methods of successful professors you had.

* Don't try to be too friendly to students. Your job is to teach them. Know both/all sides of every argument. Present them fairly.

* This is kind of touchy but you want every student to feel they have to work hard. That's not the same as being a hardass. It takes time to get a feel for but if you get the balance right, good students will excel, middling students will work harder and become good students and bad students (by which I mean students who want to coast) will either move towards the middle or drop the course (which is preferable to getting a bad grade).

* Remember as the professor you know more about the subject than the student. This takes some of the pressure off too. Handle this responsibility with humilty and try to have fun with it (I used to use funny stories to illustrate points).

Hope this helps. Good luck and let me know if you have other questions.
