common core initiative

Here is how Common Core “works“:

CommonCore

Pretty simply, right…? Here are a few more examples:


another example of common core (tens)

more common core

I only have a degree in Mechanical Engineering so please explain to me; what the fuck is a Subtraction Sentence????
This is exactly the type of higher level math that prepares one for college and a good career (sigh….).

This is what happens when the same douchenozzles that brought us Obama-Care get more involved in the public/government school system.

Everybody is just like peas and carrots again. I was not looking forward to watching the dogs fight at all.

phew. i am glad that’s over with. stucky and llpoh are two of my favorite TBPers, albeit for different reasons. their verbal scrum reminded me of an episode a few years ago. every year i go on a canoe trip with 3 old friends, best friends. this particular year we ventured up to the 3rd machias if i remember correctly, and had a first class experience. the weather was brilliant, our campsite perfect, the wildlife abundant, the water warm, the food excellent. but my buddy, who is bossy by nature (he is a surgeon), got on my nerves because he unnecessarily ordered us around. so, in spite of the bliss of the perfect trip, he kind of pissed me off. i shrugged it off the best i could but it still bothered me. when the trip was over, we returned to my house, had dinner, and settled in for a night of backgammon gambling. i normally mop the floor with my buddies, so it was a surprise when my doctor friend beat me a few games in a row. no big deal, everyone loses right? but it was the way he won that irritated me, the way he was boasting. well, i got a little hot under the collar, and at the close of the last game, i could have sworn he cheated by taking the wrong pieces off. i told him so. he told me to go fuck myself. i got up from my chair and said “fuck you, you fucking cheater” as i flipped his baseball hat off his head. that lit the fuse. my friend was a champion wrestler in high school and is still in shape. i am not, but i am a wiry, scrappy fuck. it didn’t take long before he had me on the ground with his elbow on my throat. honestly, i couldn’t breathe. (MY BEST FRIEND WAS KILLING ME!) i was hoping my dog would jump on his ass and save me but apparently this was not to be the case, that little ungrateful bastard. my other two buddies were laughing! anyway, i had a free right hand, so i started to flail wildly on his head, making a bloody cut. he then relented. i got up and told him to fuck himself, to pack his shit and get the fuck out.

he didn’t leave. the next morning all of us had breakfast together quietly. when my surgeon buddy left, we shook hands a bit reluctantly as we were still juiced from the night before. but two weeks later, all was normal again. he even joked that his wife was horrified by the cut on his forehead. we laughed. and we are still best friends for 30 years now.

i guess what i’m saying is that men will always be men: prideful, testy, always at the ready for violence, whether over this or that, however stupid. but friendship, between men, endures nonetheless (unless it involves a woman, then all bets are off). i look forward to more llpoh and stucky posts here at TBP, thankfully.
