Are we more concerned with why the teacher finds Arby’s sexual?

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 109 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Boys of that age laughing has a high chance of being somehow sexual.

Boys of any age laughing has a high chance of being somehow sexual.

Anything a middle schooler does is inherently suspect. The first thing you learn teaching middle school is that they are always trying to fuck with you, and anything like this is extremely suspicious.

JFC I almost spit my coffee across the table. It was closer than I'd like to admit.

Ten points to house Flappy Meats!

It's 8th grade boys, they wouldn't bother if they couldn't find some way to make it an innuendo.

Are you unaware of people comparing female anatomy to roast beef sandwiches bc thats been a thing for my whole life

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I always get the beef and cheddar, but no red ranch sauce.

Then I ask if anyone in the room would like their pussy eaten!

It's just considerate! It would be rude not to...

I told them it was not professional

They are eight graders. What the hell is wrong with teachers?

[–] andros_rex@lemmy.world 38 points 4 months ago (3 children)

? Being able to give a professional presentation is a pretty crucial job skill. My seventh graders are presenting for me next week.

[–] tacosanonymous@mander.xyz 29 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Honestly, the boys coordinating and being on the same page is impressive. I hope your seventh graders have half that dedication.

Seeing what the kiddos make is my favorite part.

Sometimes my heart gets broken - like once my high schoolers had to solder and build a prototype device using the components I provided to them, any function, they just had to create a slide show where they pitched their device to me as an investor. IE - this is a project I thought a lot about, spent real cash dollars on, figured out to teach a bunch of high schoolers to solder without them causing me to need to feel out paperwork…. I had two refuse to present. Was devastating to me, one kid in particular I was really surprised by, one I expected.

But usually it works out that I get to see a few that make me very happy. I try to suss out nascent interests that I can draw out. A project lets you find ways to help a student flavor it around marine biology or welding or something they actually like and will spend time researching. I also try to learn more shit about the world all the time and unleashing the mental processing power of a bunch of children can be a fun way to do that.

~~seeing balaclava/baklava mixed up makes me feel better about when I did it as a college student~~

I've found that injecting a bit of humor in my presentations goes a long way.

Phrasing wise, yeah what they said wouldn’t work and this person is clearly early career. The most effective response to this (when it’s something I want to stop) is calling it “auraless” or “odd” behavior with varying intonation based on age group.

[–] PiraHxCx@lemmy.dbzer0.com 39 points 4 months ago (1 children)

it's 100% sexual and 100% healthy for them to be laughing at it.

Class solidarity?

[–] IndignantIguana@piefed.social 13 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

"not professional", bah. Beat them at their own game. Tell them it's evident they have much to learn, so we will be spending the next three weeks on sex education.

These boys have The Meats.
