Argh, that stupid site again! Utterly moronic, I hope someone reports that teacher and gets her fired.

As off the wall and utterly moronic as this site is it really shouldn't be allowed on the net. This is due to the simple fact that there are people out there who will think that this is real and start throwing a fit. I frankly find it distasteful.

THe second you start the list of "what's too distastful for the net" (underage porn aside) is when we'll all be given a list of words we can't use on the net.
Then a list of people we can't disagree with.
Then people we can't mention....

If you don't like it, don't view it: no one forces you to visit a website. [Wink]

The 'net police
They live inside of my pc
The 'net police
They come to me in my bed
The 'net police
They're coming to arrest me
Oh no

You know that type is cheap
And rumors ain't nice
And when I go online
I don't think I'll survive


Don't type this,
Don't type that,
cut your hair,
get a job,
look both ways before crossing a street,
eat your veggies,
don't talk back,
wash your hands,
don't talk to strangers,


So, Epoch, the internet should be controlled to suit your tastes, so that everything that people can view needs to fit your perspective on everything??

I have found a lot of sites that I find distasteful, but I don't allow myself the arrogance of thinking that they should be banned from the 'net. Now, child porn type sites, should be banned, and the viewers hung, the creaters deserve a slow drawing and quartering.

Hey, I was using that soapbox for storage!
Now it's broken.

Ritten: "I don't allow myself the arrogance of thinking that they should be banned from the 'net. Now, child porn type sites, should be banned"

You didn't really think that through, did you? [Smile]

So where do you draw the line? 17? 15? 13? Have the girls (or boys) given their consent already?
Maybe they're just doing it for their boyfriends? To show their love? Then it's just the most romantic thing ever, suddenly.

I suspect that there's a very good chance that it may actually be real.

This is one of those "mile in their moccasin" things.

Caring for a developmentally or physically disabled person for an extended length of time in one of the most high-stress occupations I can imagine, and that someone who has to not only simply provide care, but actually attempt to teach not just one, but a group, finds a useful outlet on a starkly humorous website neither surprises nor offends me.

After all, I recognized some of the same emotions I've sometimes felt when caring for Julie during her sicker times. (I thank whatever Gods there are for the Jefferson Migraine Treatment Center and Dr. John Keuk-Sung Lee.)

The more I've read of that site, the more I think it's real. Having been around the mentally and physically handicapped and having a screwed up sense of humor, I can tell you that you sometimes think these sorts of thoughts. I've got friends and family who work at various types of homes and have to deal with extremes in patients. It's never a pretty thing, but everyone copes with stress in different ways. This lady likely deals with it in this fashion to keep from blowing her head off. You should hear how medical professionals I know talk about a night in the ER in cities such as NYC, Houston, LA, Seattle and San Antonio. On the one hand, it's shocking what people will say about those in their care sometimes. However, every body needs an outlet.

Personally, I hope that this teacher continues to find a release for her how she deals w/her "tards". As long as she's changing all the names, it doesn't do anyone a bit of harm. Indeed, it's good therapy for her.

The main problem I have w/ the site is this:
"We decided on the word 'tard' mainly because it is not a word. We picked it for this reason, and thus we can assign our own meaning to the word 'tard.'"

Uh-huh. Sure. And "nigger" isn't a real word, either. Why don't you self-define it to mean "kind gentleman", head into the ghetto, find some dark-skinned fellows wearing copious amounts of red or blue clothing, and start addressing them as such?

I mean, seriously, if I walk up to this woman and call her a "malodorous, repulsive, brain-damaged cunt", I don't think she'd believe me if I told her that none of those words meant what everyone else means when they say them. You can't just give words your own personal definitions on a whim and expect people to take it seriously. That's not how language works.

Well, most of the time, anyway.

If you put on your HAPPIEST of happy faces and deliver a COMICAL "wazzup my niggah" without crapping your pants, they'll let you live. Most of the time. Unless you're Chinese.

That was my first thought about the site, too, TSN. I think the explanation was dreamed up after the blog had started since the early entries by "Riti Sped" refer to the students as retards much more often than just tards.

Some of the entries are amusing in a "If there is a God, I am so going to Hell now" kinda way. The altercation between one of the students and a basketball referee was quite funny. And there were a couple of entries where it seemed like teacher did care a good deal for her students in spite of whatever's going on. The cafeteria lunch lady story is a fairly good example of that.

I think this is probably a special education teacher's exaggerated ventings on her job. From all the references of teaching aides in the classroom with her, I doubt that she'd get away with a bit of the stuff she claims to.
