I had a potty mouth when I was a kid, and to be honest, I’ve still got one. I come from a family of swearers, and when I was in the 6th grade, I watched all 15 South Park seasons (at the time) on my unsupervised laptop. The latter turned me into an expert in …

Math teacher only allows students 1 bathroom pass per week, gives them extra credit if they don’t use the restroom at all: ‘Both the rule and the reward are problematic’
When you’re a teenager, you don’t always have control over whether you can go to the restroom when needed. Both my minimum wage service job and my high school teachers made me ask permission to use the restroom, and if they said no, then I couldn’t go! I had a friend who peed on the …

High school football coach mocks parents for wanting more water breaks for their sons practicing in the Texan summer heat: ‘I believe in WORK, not WOKE!’

Math is one of those subjects that has a distinct right and wrong. In English class, you can write an essay that argues basically anything you want as long as you can use the text to support your arguments. In art class, there is so much room for creative liberties, even if you’re given a …
