This is fake but this rule if ever really implemented would be extremely wrong for so many reasons.
A school fining students for swearing is the most believable part of this story to me. I don't think I ever saw fines for swearing but we had fines for chewing gum, dress code violations etc. I 100% believe a school would implement this exact policy. And I agree it's pretty fucked up and classist to fine children.
Oh, but indoctrinating them with abhorrently-bigoted propaganda disguised as "history", et al, that's ok, though.
Hmm. 😜
Two things can be wrong at the same time. Even 5. Or, looking at the world right now, everything can be wrong all at once
"You absolute maroon! I possess the capabilities to be wrong in quantities and qualities you could scarce imagine. It would boggle any mind, even my own!"
Now, read it as Vecini.
Fair points, all. ☝🏼
Its impossible for everything to be wrong all at once. I doubt you can reach 25% of all things
Impossible, you say? Hunh... Here, hold my coffee. I've got a couple ideas.
You can get planets to be wrong?
Too young to remember Pluto? 🥲🤷🏽♂️
This is true. 🥲😭😅
No, I think that's pretty messed up as well. The schools I went to had a lot of problems.
Not as many as the students within them, though. 🙇🏼♂️ I feel ya 🤘🏼
We had a swear jar in my high school drum line. It paid for an annual camping trip we went on.
Drummers cuss a lot.
I barely had lunch money, maybe $1 or less on me when I was in highschool. I admit that because I didn't get allowance, maybe other kids had more money than me, but we weren't destitute level of poor, like many kids were. I don't see how you can fine that easily without being in an affluent area.
I went to catholic school, most of the students' families had at least tuition money. I was one of the "need-based scholarship" kids so my tuition was less, and I had a job so I had some income, which I used mostly for gas to get to and from my job and most of the rest went to tuition. Fines were added to the tuition bill, and if you hadn't settled up by the beginning of the next year / graduation, you couldn't re-enroll / graduate.
