I don't think that it was quite at the level where I could formally file anything against them, and I really don't know what to do otherwise.
Zoe: Next time we smuggle stock, let's make it something smaller. Wash: Yeah, we should start dealing in those black-market beagles.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
okay, I'll let you handle your business.
from afar I continue to be appalled.

Our wings are not tired
or getting some shit thrown on me.
Well, we don't throw things at people, but we do use lots of water gags. A actor will cut into a fake body and they will have a way to trigger a water spray so it seems like you just got hit with a blood spray. It's just plain water though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, I'm glad I could get you an answer to your unasked question, LeN.
Thanks, ND! That will be enough info for him to decide. I think he's trying to tough it out--I don't know why I'm trying so hard to convince him not to go, but it really doesn't sound like he's up to it, from what little I know of him online. Some people need a cathode ray tube between them and the macabre. And, good lord, what am I going to say when the last CRT is taken away from us?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
ND, okay. I can handle that without causing a public panic. Water is not a problem at all.

I also had a student today claiming that I marked something wrong on his paper when it was actually right. I'm nearly certain that his answer was wrong, and he erased it and then wrote in the right answer after I handed the papers back, but I've got no way of proving it. I'm giving him the points, and keeping a closer eye on his papers in the future.

Wow. That's so very kindergarten.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
That's so very kindergarten.
Middle school, I think. Kinders wouldn't be able to pull off a convincing fake.
And, in the other side of academic shenanigans, I was just given a reading from the APA on treating older people with psychological issues. It, as one might guess, is full of statistics. Statistics that were current when it was published. In 1998.
I am unimpressed.

1998 still seems so recent to me. Chronological math is often painful.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
heh. It only struck me because it was talking about how the Boomers were going to start turning 65 in the next 15 years. And I was like, "my parents are significantly over 50, and they're both younger siblings...when the fuck is this from?"
