Not in my class room.

Well, actually, you probably can use it several dozen times. It takes 5-10 minutes for someone to come up from the office to escort you out after I place a call for using it the first time.

"The teachers should be allowed to have sex with the students five times before they get in trouble."

Is that five times with EACH student, or five times overall?

Depends. Is the teacher hot?

:^)

"You bucking buck mutherbucker! I'm going to buck you in the mutherbucking buck with a mutherbucking buck you bucking mutherbucker."

I really tried to read that whole thing exactly as written.

It didn't work.

LOL, could you imagine. Just saying 'darn' or 'God' will get the teachers in trouble. Let alone sex. And the kids know it.

This can't end well. Imagine snotty jr high kids taking turns tormenting the substitutes with the 5x's rule. And they're helpless to defend themselves or punish the kids. One teacher I had in HS had a very quiet voice and was tormented mercilessly by some kids. He threw a chair. They were suspended. He retired at the end of the year, years ahead of schedule. And that was at a time not so many years ago when one could punish a student and parents didn't defend their students misbehaviors.

And, oh, some are doing that now!

Does the "five times count if you use it in different parts of speech?
Verb form- F%$# this!
Adjective - You're an f%$#ing idiot!
Adverb - I f%$#ing quit!
Noun - Hey you f$%#er!
Interjection - OH f%$#! What are you doing?
Prepositional phrase _ Where in the f%$# are we?
Oh I'm sure their grammar teachers would be so f%$#ing proud!

I had a teacher who had a jar for infractions that included bad language, determined by him, and gum, food, rudeness. He kept the money, lol. I don't know. My mom used to say, 'The inmates running the asylum'. I think it's true.

I teach a class to gradeschool kids 1.5 hrs a week. I've developed stricter rules over the 8 years I've been doing it. I thought I heard the F word once last year (that's right, 7 & 8 yr olds). It only happened once. Some of the other volunteers have real disciplinary issues, even in the lower grades. And many of the parents are defiant.

People are idiots... they're allowing the students to walk all over them. Great lesson. In contrast, my Latin teacher limited us to 3 bathroom/locker trips per SEMESTER and held us to it.

So true. And it's only getting worse. The kids have totally manipulated situations like that where they have too much freedom. It's one big joke. We had detentions and there were strict rules. I did detention for chewing gum and for wearing a non-regulation sweater. It wasn't a sleazy one, just not on the list. Imagine the outrage of some parents if their kid even got a detention! It would interfere with (insert name of after school activity here).

When I was in school 5 times was the bare minimum it was mentioned.

What a scary school that must have been, lol. But was that the f word to other kids or to the teachers? If it was to the teachers, then you were in a progressive, ahead of the trend school! Of course, when I was in school, even with stricter rules in place, the school across town had a problem with switchblades and people getting 'cut' (not usually stabbed) and pot smoking in school. And this was in a rural, non-urban area. It's actually a littler safer there now.

How about Fail?

Sssshhhhhh. Nobody fails anymore! That's one f word we won't be hearing. It's A's and B's for everyone and everyone's on the Honor Roll.

And everyone is co-valedictorian with the 500 other kids so no one will feel left out.

Oh, tell me about it. Can't have hurt feelings. Very frustrating to those kids who do work hard or enjoy the subject.

Verb form? (head rolling around vacuously)

Ad-jec-tive?

Teacher? What the f**k to them words mean? Why are you f***ing bothering us with em. Shut the f**k up.

The teachers would be proud, if they or the students got it. LOL.

Great demonstration! I loved it! If the teacher can get their attention, she can use these illustrations to make a point. But wouldn't want to interrupt their text messaging and such.

LOL, very apropos. They'll be using this absurdity in years to come to illustrate the absurdity of the experiment.
