If this list was done for my class back when I was in school, realistically it'd just be slurs

    Damn, you are probably right. Maybe this generation isn’t so doomed after all.

    Roflcopter, what an epic fail! The speech patterns of other generations are so not tubular or radical! Unlike my generation holds up spork we're too random to to be lame!

    I think you mean to say:

    "Chat, is this generation COOKED?"

    How often was Emma saying Tweaking to get her own place on the board?

    Story time! When I was in high school (~1998/99) a group of kids decided to start a “gang.” I went to a small Baptist school. Kids were bored. This was maybe second period. They called their gang the “Yo’s.” Saying “Yo” was pretty much the extent of their gang. By lunchtime a group of us got annoyed and decided to start a rival gang called the “No’s.” The Bloods to the Yo’s Crips. The sign you were a No was you grabbed a brown paper towel from the bathroom and wore it hanging from your back pocket.

    Anyway, just before dismissal everyone was called into an assembly and given a lecture on gangs and told that anyone wearing a brown paper towel would receive a detention. I am still amused at how seriously our administration took this obviously stupid and juvenile joke.

    Wait until you learn how seriously law enforcement took street gangs.

    The whole Saints Row series was based on the dichotomy between incorrigible feral teens, a product of hands-off parenting while simultaneously running an international drug and crime syndicate

    Of note is the property of ur-fascism the enemy [of the movement] is simultaneously strong and weak

    Ohio being on the list is pretty funny (assuming this is in the US). Going to make geography and history classes awkward.

    What grade is this, that Edging and Goon were common enough terms that they had to be included here?

    "Animal noises" is very broad. Furry persecution. :(

    The fact that they lose "LiveSchool points", whatever those are, presumably for saying these words, is almost worse than the fact that they have this list at all. I don't know what that system is or how it works, but I already hate it.

    It's probably some fast she discipline system. The way we treat kids in schools is horrific, has been for quite a while though but they feel entitled to subject kids to whatever technological Horrors they can come up with

    As always, the best way to get kids to stop using these words is to use them yourself. Use the ancient cringe-power to disarm the youth 🦹🔥

    As a teacher, I cannot tell you how much this changed my life. I just spew their random shit right at them, totally straight-faced, with a painful degree of enunciation. They do not say those words again in my presence. Their cringe feeds me. I also find it helpful to try to get them to define each term, in excruciating detail, then I destroy the word for them.

    The best way to make sure everyone is saying those words is to ban them lol

    I get the sense that this list is constantly growing and acts as an incentive to invent new words that end up on the list.

    By that measure, Emma is a rockstar and Darius is being bullied by their classmates and the teacher.

    WW2 Propaganda (Just cause it's historical doesn't make it not pornography vaultdweller013)

    Any discussion of the killdozer

    Bulldozer noises

    Tank noises (You will all make annoying lawyers)

    Kazoos are not longer allowed

    Compressed air canisters are banned especially if you have a whistle and duck tape

    Arma is not allowed to be watched on computer property

    Soviet national anthem

    Russian national anthem

    State anthem of Mississippi

    Djibouti National anthem

    There was a shirt, it was Mario + Mushroom = Big Mario. Our administration thought this was a drug reference. Some nerdy kid would wear the shirt and about half way through the day they would be wearing it inside out.

    When I was in the 1st grade, I successfully got sent to the Principal for saying “Cookie Crisp” too many times.

    I for one support the educational system refusing to address O*io. Every year people are subjected to delicious and sinful delicacies like Da*ton style pizza, Cincin*ati chili, and *uckeyes. Remember, only you can forget about o*io

    Sorry but "any combination of 'tuah' and 'hawk'" has me fucking rolling. Since every now and then my mom and I will do that exact thing spontaneously while talking.

    Like she'll be talking about Cactuar and my brain will be like "Cactuah"

    I had a music teacher in the 90s once have a breakdown and scream, "I don't want to hear shit, fuck, or blowjob one more time" and then run out of the room. The kids are okay.

    If that list was made in my generation it wouldn't be in English.

    But also it wouldn't be made in my generation because what the hell do you mean "banned words"? We would have set that trash on fire and gone on strike.

    There was no list of banned words in my schools. Common sense was enough. Kids do understand common sense.

    Anime words? Like all words ever spoken in animation?
