Why would you do that to yourself.

If it helps, you're talking to the guy that's been called "ma'am" for about thirty years now, usually straight to my face.
So I get it, sorry if my joking upset you, I'll stop, you look great with short hair!
I already miss my hair, and I cut it less than two weeks ago.

So, mentioned this on DaWtL, but as it's bothering me (and as it give Scint a second place for distributing endless punishment... and much more so as a legit and serious question):
Hope everyone weathered the storms okay!

...It's sort of why I take such a cavalier attitude to lit analysis with my kids. As long as you prove your point, you're good. If you want to have your class go after a specific prompt, you've got to lead them in a little. We're so fixated with "must be right, you are wrong," that there's something nice about literature having the potential to just explore the idea of "okay, but why do you think that?" without knowing your teacher's going to ding you if you don't 100% agree with them. I legitimately don't give two s##&s about most of what I assign (I've not yet been brave enough to chuck the literary canon and just assign Terry Pratchett forever), so I don't have any sacred cows for the kids to attack. Just give me your opinion, cite what gave you the idea, and proofread...
And there you go. I'm still bitter about my final English class in college, where the professor wouldn't give me above a C on my papers because I intentionally took a viewpoint opposed to hers because I thought it would be more interesting, then as the final paper I simply wrote a story and got an A, plus, "I can't believe how much your writing has improved!", plus an overall B+ in the course for "improvement over the semester."
Nothing changed about me. I just didn't argue with the teacher in my third essay and it pushed me up two full letter grades.
That's NOT teaching. That's proselytizing.

I enjoy his remakes, and he and you seem to have several political views in common, so that might be an enjoyable thing?

For everyone else, Mann Shorts is a pretty fun D&D parody channel with skits mostly based around ludicrous one-to-more-shot D&D conceits that are somehow turned into a game by a group of... consistently... unusual... players. They have other skits, some still going, as well as other ideas they've done (and mostly dropped) that are largely entertaining (though, due to my personal things with such, I just will not watch the Drunk Before Noon stuff, though that doesn't stop you guys).

No, there is almost never only one way to answer a math problem... if you have slightly higher-end math (beyond the simple x+y=z or similar), but, much like with English, there are things that are more straight-forward, faster, or easier (or make more sense). And if you apply the wrong thing at the wrong time, you're going to be wrong.
As an example, several pages back, I was asking if anyone had a faster way to prove an asymptote. The process I was using was not wrong - it worked, and eventually I found some short-hand that sort of let me skip ahead and show (by process of mathematical progression) that it worked that way to within a certain upper value limit. BUT! It was inefficient, and I never fully proved it to "completion" - just to "satisfaction." Thus, I couldn't say for sure it's an asymptote, just that it kind of sort of really looked like one to me for most of the values that I cared about (and similar iterations).
Math is, at its core, a language and set of process tools.
But you're not gonna use a hammer on a screw, or if you are, you're doing something that likely doesn't work out as well for the screw, the hammer, and/or the thing you are trying to put the screw into.
Math, and English, are the same in this way.
I might be able to extrapolate a set of allegorical meanings from The Great Gatsby about the Internetfame and Webcomics, and there's nothing (inherently) wrong with that (also, I could be wrong; I dunno, the most recent thing I've interacted with that is a combination of Scint's posts and the movie), but if I try to argue that such was the author's intent, I'm pretty clearly and definitively wrong (as they didn't have the internet nor even computers).
EDIT: to put it a different way, if a math instructor is teaching you how to parse fractions, compare and analyze them, and understand their uses, you’re graded on how well you do that and follow instructions. Similarly, in English, you can have teachers very reasonably require that you understand and can reasonably diagram the parts of a sentence. One of the neat things about both English and Math is that there will be plenty of times where the strict explicit formulae skills you learned and (if you’re like most people me, “questionably”) mastered in school, you will actively be using those exact and specific skills and processes even when you have forgotten how because you have (hopefully) trained yourself into the proper sequence or instructions at the time and your trained reflexes (well, “honed instincts” rather) will continue to help you function wells so even when you’re not sure of how or why you’re doing the thing.

EDIT - Having listened to 3 songs so far, I can say his lyrics and flow are great, and the production quality is good...not great, but good...but the beat gets repetitive, and the hooks are too prevalent and long. Hook this man up with a decent producer and he'll shine.

When I'm baked I can spit like that. I used to improvise poetry in high school for extra credit so I could skip English class, cause it was right after lunch, and 30 minutes is not enough time to wait in line, find a seat, eat, and such without cramming it down your gullet like a pelican trying to eat a pigeon.
Unfortunately, when sober, I'm too self-conscious and think everyone is judging me and that I sound dorky, etc.

Theme:
Definitely NOT the lead-in, but...
Hmmm. We need to uptick that to the modern situation...
Gave me a job, give me security
Gave me a chance to survive
I'm just a poor soul in the toilet paper aisle
My God, I'm hardly alive
My mother and father, my wife and my friends
I see them laugh in my face
But I've got the power, and I've got the will
I'm not some damn lazy ass
I'll take those long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my eye to the keyhole
If it takes all that to be just what I am
Well, I'm gonna be a blue collar man
Make me an offer that I can't refuse
Make me non-essential, man
This is my last time in the toilet paper aisle
So like it or not I'll take those
Long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my back to the wall
If it takes all that to be just what I am
Well, I'm gonna be a blue collar man
Keeping my mind on a better life
Where happiness is only a heartbeat away
Paradise, can it be all I heard it was
I close my eyes and maybe I'm already there
I'll take those long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my back to the wall
All that be just what I am
Well, I'm gonna be a blue collar man
You don't understand
I'll take those long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my eye to the keyhole
If it takes all that be just who I am
Well I vow to be a blue collar, gotta be a blue collar,
Gonna be a Blue collar man.
Believe it.

goal: get Eldest signed in, and have responded to "Attendance" question by 9:30 AM.
step one: everyone is up, fed, and generally doing well before eight
step thirty-seven: it's 9:27 AM, so you hit "reload" on the flip-flabberin' page for the fifty-seventh time and hope it is literally anything other than a complete blank white page with "Dashboard!" written in small font on the top left. If so, then proceed to click on a class (or refresh until you can click on a class; alt strategy that's a sometimes
foodsuccessful strategy is to manually type in the class you want to go to by checking your iDevice search history; this, unfortunately, is just as unreliable, but fortunately gets you hypothetically one step closer to your ultimate goal:world dominationgetting your eldest registered as technically having attended school today)step ninety-six: it's 9:37; send an email to teacher with screen shots from both Desktop and iDevice showing that the thing will... not... load...
step ???: ???
step later: profit!
step *two hours later*: sign in completed! Huzzah!
Hurray for bandwidth limitations!
... wait. That... that m-... may be... the wrong... reaction?
The other problem, of course, is frustration.
Anyway, my Eldest is smart - smart enough to have been placed in (and excel in) the gifted program, and it challenges him enough that he is a much calmer and focused individual but not so much that he's just frustrated by hitting a wall.
He's quick, too, and a bit hasty, because he often knows what the answers are before he's fully read the problems. Which, you know, is hard for him to do sometimes, because I have ADD and... well, we have never gotten him tested (it isn't often that much of an issue), but there are striking similarities at times. One of the things we're learning how to do is actually read what we're doing or reading, and not guess. Because guessing gets us in trouble.
Like today.
We have automated math lessons. We had to redo one, and fully do another, and there were some other bonus things, too; we got the first nailed down (it didn't take long), and the second was running well enough. I thought.
What was actually happening with number two is that there are twelve segments of semi-randomized problems with an ordered sequence that allows you a step-by-step. So, let's say question one is semi-randomized among a pre-selected grouping, each of which takes you slowly through the full process, while section 12 is the "okay, you've learned to swim, now you can swim."
I found out something odd, a little while back. He had finished parts 10-12, but was really struggling on part nine. Really. Struggling. By "finished" with 10-12, he'd gone through it, and gotten all the answers correct (otherwise it wouldn't have checked off, and would semi-randomize to a new sheet of problems when you hit the button to do so).
So... what was happening?
He stumbled every time over following instructions in the step-by-step.
Now, I know Freehold will decry math in general, but here's the thing - this is not a math-exclusive problem. This has caught up to us in every subject at some point or another (most commonly and significantly English with occasional skipping words/instructions and "knowing" what the paragraph said without bothering to read it).
Today just happened to be an extremely highlighted case... because it was paired with extreme slowdown thanks to technological problems.
Today we had five subjects to accomplish, a one-hour interactive violin lesson, and a one-hour story time. Of those, we avoided having tech troubles with... the story time, which is what's happening right now.
So! Bright and hasty kid that doesn't read all the instructions, is already trying to answer the final answer they were going for (not bothering to follow the steps along the way) combining with extreme tech issues and the computer rejecting what was clearly the correct answer lead to a sudden moment a short while back where he broke down crying because he was totally getting it right and he just didn't understand anything anymore.
After hugs, Daddy (me) mandated either a ten minute quiet rest time or a five minute outdoor time to clear heads and refresh minds and reset emotions. He opted for the five minutes out, and then we put ourselves back to it.
I forced us (against his will) to start in the still-never-completed part one ("I already did that, and gave the right answer, and it didn't work there, either!"), and we went through it, and that's when I found what the real actual problem was. After a little more than six minutes of work on the same problem, he finally realized the part of the instructions he was skipping. He proceeded to ace the next eight pages of work in under a minute, letting us sign into story time on time (which we were worried we might miss).
So that's our education today.
Seven to ten minutes doing the hardest of problems first, then an hour failing on the easy ones. Seven minutes of learning to read every word of a sentence and do the first part of a thing first. One minute to get all the remaining actual work done. Two hours sprinkled throughough of slowding, and various work interrupted by life.
(If there's any question the boy likes math, though, he usually doesn't want to do the last problem on the page; that's so he gets to play with the online educational math tools. Usually this means making little mazes on one of the tools for Mommy or I to complete through lunch, most often demonstrating whatever lesson they're currently on, usually in Math but often some other subject. Today, instead of a maze, however, he used it to demonstrate to Mommy and I comparative fractions in visual formats by color - mostly by reducing much larger numbers into ever-decreasing relative pieces marked by color to make "pleasing whole" square-or-rectangular shapes, though always with a single "extra" square of one of the colors, as you always ended up with a remainder of one, then you had an extra square. As an aside, he also likes artistic expression.)
