Would You Choke A Student If: > General Discussion

Posted: 1/27/2009 2:18:14 PM EDT

Sitting in an American History survey course, a student gave a power point presentation and while speaking of FDR's New Deal, they had a picture of Teddy Roosevelt?

Would it be better to contain your laughter or just simply choke the life out of the student for not even listening for that last few weeks?

No way would I put up with half the shit these kids come up with these days. At least your student is just ignorant not violent or disrespectful. Correct him and send him on his way.

Choke? No.

Laugh? Maybe.

Say "I'll see you after class you dolt"? Yes.

Choking is not allowed however public humiliation is a good idea.

0 for effort.

Didn't Teddy push FDR up San Juan Hill in his wheelchair?

You'd pretty much have to correct them on the spot, lest that be the one moment that the rest of the Democrats were paying attention in class.

Heres another vote for public Humiliation!

The impression I get is that students nowadays need much more ridicule than they're getting. So I'm going to vote for a big dose of vitamin R.

Teddy actually had something called the "fair deal" that was similar.

Why would I do that? I'd laugh long and loud. The word "dumbass" would be heard at least twice.

I didn't read the OP, but I guess it depends. Is she hot? Is she asking you to do it? If it turns her on, hell yes.

Depends if she could swallow, If she could, then no.
