Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I really wish there were a way to estimate one's likelihood of getting a job before applying. Like, is this an area with 30 math teachers who'll apply for that one job, or have they been drafting shop teachers into it for the last couple years because there's no one for the position?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I think that info is like the real guts of credit scoring -- it'd be immensely useful to you, but the people who hold it are way too invested in keeping it a trade secret to ever let it go.

Yeah. On the other hand, once I typed that I remembered that most schools have report cards online, so I went and looked up what percentage of core classes at that school are taught by teachers not certified as "Highly Qualified," and it's 9%. So odds are fairly good. I don't entirely approve of the "Highly Qualified" system, but it may work in my favor here.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
To go along with the comic book postings: [link]
Did you know there was a robot on Sesame Street? I didn't. Anyway, it was Sam the Sesame Street Robot.
In the above link, Sam the Sesame Street Robot makes a guest-appearance in a Spider Man comic.
OK, if that's not bizarre enough, the whole comic is a takeoff on Star Wars....

Always Anti-fascist!
Tep, I second your emotions, re the wholesome face thing. It's quite a drag. Unless you like being accosted by people with the Book of Mormon, that is.

Still another comic thingie: Mighty Samson vs. the Mutant, Radioactive Unicorn

A big picture of the cover: [link] The unicorn looks really pissed off. And you can tell it's radioactive 'cuz it's glowing.
