Some of these are valid to ban (the sex and manosphere ones) but others just seem like they're trying to ban slang.

Also why ban ligma? What if someone catches it and needs to talk about it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 26 minutes ago

Just like Joe :(

If it's an language/literature class, maybe it would make sense to ban slang

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Ban using slang in writing makes sense, but controlling how students can speak is just ridiculous.

I agree. Thinking more about it, if you look at the board it shows hand written, a typo count. Which may indicate it is a typing class. Thereby they would be possibly teaching professional typing for a work environment.

So telling users not to talk about pop culture, use slang, emojis, and memes would make sense in that environment.

I personally prefer to use some, but knowing how not to and "knowing your audience" would depict when it is or is not appropriate. So teaching students to say type a professional email/cover letter/resume/response would make sense to ban such. 🤷 <Devils advocate I suppose. Sorry, been a rough week

What the fuck is a Darius noise?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 hours ago

I too wish to know.

I hope it's like kids mimicking Darius from league of legends, but I doubt that. Like irl emote spam, lol.

It’s code for no hootie and the blowfish

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 hour ago

That does not particularly clear anything up

Anime words/gestures

So, Japanese?

As a weeb, that teacher would have skinned me alive and wore my face.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 9 hours ago

Literally 1984

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 hours ago

why no memes, can they have old memes plez?

[–] [email protected] 24 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Note the conspicuous lack of traditional swear words on this list.

If I were a kid in this class, I would've abused the hell out of that loophole. (And suffered the consequences, but finding and exploiting the technical ways to skirt a teacher's stupid rules was always worth it.)

I would like this in my school except 10 and 20 .But what the fuck is darius noises.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 hours ago

Teach, would you crank up the thermostat a notch?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

That’s clearly not geography class. Or else the student wouldn’t be able to answer in what state is Cincinnati?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago

There is no risk of that, because no one cares about ohio or Cincinnati. It is the most vanilla of room temperature things this world has on offer

What are Darius noises? "They will regret opposing me"?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 hours ago

Something about a wagon wheel.
