I was in a senior US history class when a girl (who went on to “graduate with honors”) asked about the Civil War, “Didn’t the north have an advantage because they were fighting down hill?” The teacher took a moment, pondering what he was asked, then went to begin to explain that moving from north to south wasn’t ‘moving down hill’ but in that moment he lost the spirit just like Jerry does at the end of the sketch and just sat back down at his desk without another word.

I imagine she was referring, but did not know the details, to the battle of Gettysburg. The turning point of the war, where the union had the high ground, and the confederates were fighting uphill. Your teacher was smart, but by assuming the girl was making a baseless comment missed that rather her misunderstanding was to underestimate the scope of the civil war.

@@danieldressler4349 That is a very generous and extremely positive guess as to her thought process but I can assure you this was an extremely ditzy mind 'thinking out loud.' Why I pointed out that she did graduate with honors was to say that she wasn't a complete simpleton by any means, just someone who did the base level and didn't think much beyond that.

You don't even need "smart" kids. You only need them to _attempt_ to read a bit and follow the program. Some of it will thus sink in through osmosis. But there are too many distractions in school. Social media, girls, boys, hormones, video games. I think I'd homeschool my kids at least 50% of the time, if I was ever dumb enough to have any.

When I was in the eighth grade, I was placed into the "average" class because I messed around in the seventh grade. I remember the teacher asking VERY simple questions and I was the only one to answer. Kids used to talk about how smart I was, and I just remember thinking--"No, y'all just dumb!" Luckily the teacher decided to move me back to the honors class. I learned my lesson and never messed around again. As pretentious as the honor students were, it was better than the alternative.

The median, however, has by definition half below and half above. I think you‘re the one who just proved he‘s below average.

​@@binabina4445I graduated high school in 2018, and we were just starting to have Chromebooks in every classroom. From what I heard from my younger sister, the school seemed to try to integrate those more and more into classes even if they made no sense. My best guess is the districts feel like they need to justify spending so much on laptops/tablets/etc. so they expect them to be used for notes and other stuff while trying to prevent distractions with terrible web filters

@@joelwillems4081 It is unpaid time. Teachers don't receive paychecks during the summer (unless they are teaching summer school) - and if they do, it's because they deliberately chose to have their pay spread out throughout the entire calendar year (and therefore receive less money per check). They work on 10-month contracts. They don't get paid summers off. Oh, and every salaried job has paid breaks and long weekends. They're called paid vacation days, paid sick days, and paid holidays. Snow days don't really matter because teachers are required to work the same amount of school days each year anyway. A snow day is the equivalent of an office worker being given Friday off, but being told they have to come in to work on Saturday. It doesn't reduce a teacher's total number of workdays. And yes, every salaried position works unpaid hours - including teachers - but teachers seem to work more unpaid hours than a lot of other professions. I'm an engineer, and I rarely have to work on weekends because I am given enough time during my workday to properly do my job. I know teachers who spend their entire Sundays grading and lesson planning for the week, because they don't have time to during the school day to properly complete these tasks. Those are unpaid hours.

Obviously, they don't build monuments to the Nazis the way Americans do to the Confederacy, but their students are well educated on the subject. Also, Germany is the biggest (or second biggest after the US) supporter of Israel.

Agree. Though it was off-topic, which frustrated Jerry, the history of the name is interesting."Europa was initially a Cretan moon goddess, who was incorporated into the Greek mythology as a virgin Phoenician princess. She was the daughter of the King Agenor of Sidon and Europe was named after her."

I heard Burr, or maybe it was Burr quoting Chris Rock, compare Seinfeld to Billy Joel. I think its a perfect match. I like Jerry, I like Joel. They may not measure up if you are looking for artistic angst, or looking for some deeper meaning, or looking for something that is completely original, or boundary pushing. But while they aren't delivering that, they are delivering. Hit after hit. Polished stuff. On point. Professional. The success it too prolific to be an accident. And while we may prefer the more tortured artists there should be room to respect the talent they are bringing to the table.

Sadly that's what we did most of my tenth grade year in technology. Our class was full of dumb jocks who though it fun to cut the circuit breaker put staples in the outlets and watch em blow when the teacher turned it back on. Then they would wait for someone to go in the bathroom, turn out the lights and start swinging. It turned into 5 to 10 people at a time would go in, turn out the lights and have like a mosh pit type gathering of the minds. 3 months in and the teacher gos in to break it up and he winds up volunteering himself to go into the bathroom and daring the students to try it. He made it through fine, about a week later we go into class and there's remnants of a first aid kit, there's tops to syringes, medical gauze... Mr Thomas had a heart attack. Mr. Rembish replaced him and after a week of trying to teach, all he did was bring in videos to watch and that's what we did. The room lights were turned off, the t.v. turned on and everyone slept, watched the movie, cleaned there shoes and gave haircuts. It was the most institutionalized pre jail setting I've ever been a part of. That was my last year in vocational study. Public schools in Waldorf MD sucked.
