Is that what badass is nowadays? Man, the next generation really does suck.

Thank god everything is distorted. I hate when things are easy to read. But, at the same time, thanks for circling the comment. I hate when things are hard to figure out.

Me:...Call who?

The fact that the government is dictating what can and cannot be taught in universities is a bit...unsettling. I mean, just because something doesn't have merit in a job market, doesn't mean it's not worth learning about. Knowing about art and music history has little real-world application but I believe learning from the past is still important, even if one will never use it for employment purposes.

I feel old. A lot of my teachers used those classic BBC documentaries. Not like TED Talks were widely available before broadband.

wow...how socially awkward?

Why the high light? Is there someone out there that looked at this and thought "too many words!"?

why is the word porn censored?

I'm not quite sure what the picture is trying to convey. Don't ask because if we do you'll say yes regardless?

If there's one thing I'd make mandatory, it's working in some sort of service job. Fast food or retail. I mean, make part of school curriculum or something. Something that allows people to feel what it's like from the other side.

I don't even have cash anymore. The only time I ever get bills is when someone insists on paying me back for something. Then it sits in my wallet until I can pass it onto someone else. It's just so much quicker and easier to use plastic. Plus, no coins.

"the streets were my school"

I have no idea what the title is referring to.

We all change colors when we're cut open

Because most people care about content, not about fidelity.

It's not really a big march if it's only hundreds and it happens every year but....it did get covered.

god damn it. Don't put the punch line in the title. It's posting 101.

If you're going to copy things from imgur, at least change the title. I get that reading the comments and realizing that Time did cover the slave trade in an article (several actually) but at least make the title your own.

Considering how most of my dates were just using me to leapfrog onto one of my hotter friends, I feel this.

Some schools do provide for this. Mine had an auto shop and a cooking class. The problem is that you need someone to teach that. Each of those subjects. Learning how to take care of your car from your uncle is nice but a school is going to want a mechanic, someone who can answer questions that may arise and knows the elements of a car, inside and out.
Same with the other subjects. I know it seems like sometimes schools just take randos off the street but they really don't. While it differs among states, typically you need a bachelor's degree in a subject or equivalent while also taking part in some teaching prep course, usually being an assistant teacher and shadowing someone while in a classroom, so you get some hands-on learning.
One thing that makes it so difficult to hire people like this is the pay. Mechanics make more than teachers. Financial advisers make more. Computer programmers make more. It's difficult to get excellent teachers for these subjects because, well, being
