    When I'm world tyrant anyone who uses the term "retarded" in that way will be culled.

    Ugh, that bothers me too. As I said we share our schedule now with a class that we have never met before, and a different girl interrupted the teacher to tell her how "retarded" something was. I just wanted to be like, you don't fkn know ANYONE in our class. For all you know, one of us could be retarded or have a close family member that is. If I hear her say it tonight I am not keeping my mouth shut. May not say anything to her because she seems the type to pick a fight, but I will certainly let the teacher know so she can stop it.

    Exactly. That and "gay" used to describe something negatively. Ugh.

    I hate to say it, but in the zombie apocalypse, it's good to not have so much competition for scarce resources. We're going to be glad there are a lot of idiots out there to keep the zombies occupied while we prepare our defense.

    Very true. I intend to fling people like these at the zombies as bait, while I make my escape.
  • What's even more sad is that we are in school preparing to become medical assistants. I hope for her potential patients' sake she doesn't get a job!

    And sadly, no, I've had her in classes before. She is just like this all the time. She actually should be a term ahead of us, but I guess she had to stay back. This does not surprise me.

    I hope if she does manage to finish school and find a job that she has someone like me following her. I can handle people who aren't that smart but really want to learn but people that stupid don't need to be anywhere near ANYONE or anything with sharp objects. There are too many ways to injure a pt if you don't know what you are doing. I think if you are going to be in health care yay for you but please have some sort of test to make sure you are competent. I'm an LPN and I had to take boards and prove to the state that I not only went to class but also learned what I needed to and now I have to pay every 2 years just to keep my license. :smile:

    All you have to do is say "Oh look something shiny over there by that zombie" I'm sure she would be like ohhhh and prance right over to them.

    If I hear her say that, I won't even have to say anything. My friend Lauren is openly gay and I'm almost positive she would say something to her. Part of me hopes she does say something is gay.

    It was pointed out to me once that throwing stupid people at zombies is futile...zombies eat brains & stupid people don't have one. So while, providing a temporary obstacle, to move around...they may not occupy the zombies as completely as we would hope.

    As a mother of a "retarded" child, I thank you for that :)x. I hate that word, especially when used incorrectly.

    If she does tell your friend to punch her in the ovaries and uterus instead of the head. No sense in wasting effort on hitting her head. Would be like beating a dead horse.

    Unfortunately I'm actually referring to a different woman than the one in the OP. This one is not stupid, just very loud and apparently has no filter.

    I teach college courses part-time and I can tell you that my biggest pet peeve is students that play on their cell phones or surf the internet in class and then ask you to repeat something. It's so rude to the other students who are paying attention and actually care. I tell my students right from the beginning that they are adults and as long as they aren't disrupting class, they can do what they want; however, I will not repeat myself throughout class because they weren't paying attention. OK, I feel better now!

    well punching her in the uterus and overies could still be benificial. Especially if her would be children could end up being like her. :indifferent:

    Too funny. I have a gay son, I told him to suck up the stereotypes and name calling because the only way for him to be happy is to not let other peoples opinions bother him. And since then, I call him my little fairy face. lol.

    I also have a disabled daughter, she's considered mentally challenged now (but was mentally retarded before, whatever, apparently the dr. had less faith in her than we did) But one day we were doing her homework and I kept explaining the same thing to her and when she finally got it, she face palmed and said "ugh, I'm A retarded" I laughed my ars off. So I say, "I'm A retarded" all the time now.

    No offense to anyone, of course, I try not to let words/name calling bother me too much, and I teach my kids the same. I will argue on your side on occasion though, just for the sake of arguing, lol.

    Sorry, back to your thread. :)

I admit, I have been guilty of texting during class--but only when I know the teacher doesn't mind, and we are not doing anything (which is rarely). But this girl brings her phone charger to every class so she can charge it and talks non-stop to her boyfriend during breaks. I text my fiance to see how things are going, occasionally, but do you really miss him THAT much? Especially since I know they live together. O.o

    Haha that's cute though :) I'M not offended by it personally, but the point is she doesn't know anyone in my class, and someone might be, you know? I don't use that word, even though I'm sure there are retarded people who could not care less, and I don't say something is gay, even though I have a gay friend that says it himself lol

    If so...I hope they use LOTS of protection :huh:

    You make the rather generous assumption that they would use it correctly.

    I would prefer my students pay attention, but I won't say it bothers me when they don't. They are adults and can do what they want (I did the same thing when I was the student), just don't expect me to stop where I'm at and go back so they can catch up. That would suck to be a student and have to listen to the instructor repeat things because some (insert adjective here) decided to play Farmville during class.

    It's "retarded" if you take Wellbutrin while breast feeding. She said "if you like, have to take them then you should at least get a breast pump so you don't hurt your baby".

    :noway:

    Best. Quote. Ever.
  • She said "if you like, have to take them then you should at least get a breast pump so you don't hurt your baby".

    This part is my favourite. :laugh:
  • Sad to say but I had to work with a young man that would proudly announce as he walked into each room in our clinic that "I'm a Doctor" as he flipped his hair back and flashed a crazy white smile. The man could not tie his own shoe! He had no idea how to work a speculem, could not decide if he was going to do a breast exam and scared a 14 year old pregnant girl from ever having sex again! Turned out he was a second year third year. ( sorry he flunked his third year of school and is doing it agian) He needed to change his entry line to "do you want fries with that?"

    I am in night school to prep for nursing school, currently in Anatomy and Physiology 2. We were discussing the endocrine system and all the different hormones, like FH and LSH etc. One girl chimed in about the HCG diet and how awesome it was. The professor was dumbfounded since she had never heard of it. After I interjected that you are limited to 500 cal a day on the "diet" the airhead shut up, the professor rolled her eyes and continued with the lecture.
    I can't even tell you how much stupidity I've heard since going back to school, and it's terrifying because most of these chicks are already LPNs trying to get their RN.
