Thread: Getting kicked out of class for rap 0_o

Same here.

This is an awful thread.

^Hear, hear. But I might as well put in my two Canadian pennies and get it over with, because now this thread's really got me going. And once ya pop, the fun don't stop.

Oh yes, the teacher is stupid. Even though it's no big secret that A) listening to music through headphones impedes your hearing and thus impedes a good chunk of the lecture that the teacher is trying to get through, B) the inability to understand the material causes your grade to slip, and C) a high school teacher's salary depends on the grades of his students. Yep. That teacher sure is STOOPID for keeping both his students' and his own best interests in mind. I know if I were a teacher, I sure would want my pay docked by teaching a class full of failing morons. Who needs money, right? Who needs basic education, right?

Seriously, though, are the only people in this thread who are agreeing with the OP nothing more than a bunch of immature little teeny-bopper brats who simply can't stand being told what to do? Grow the fuck up. If you can't even handle a teacher telling you not to use an iPod in class, can you really handle a police officer ticketing you because you want to drive 40 miles over the posted speed limit? Life has rules, people, and although some rules were made to be broken, most of them were made with your best interests in mind. Live with it.

On a side note, I find that the educational system in the U.S., although quite poor at the high school level, is slightly more...just, shall we say, when you reach the college level. College professors won't typically give two shits about this sort of thing. Why? Because they no longer get paid strictly based on your grades. Why, again? Because now you're paying for the classes. Every time some dick flunks a $120 college course that he paid for - due to his own unwillingness to take shit seriously - what do I feel? Sweet, sweet Schadenfreude. It only goes to show that failures are self-made.

Lëzen is so logical and awesome.

If you didn't catch my earlier comment it was during free period, it was not an ipod, we were not in class, and again we are aloud to listen to music. It was the type of music he told me not to listen to... not the music itself. I have since been in the class and listened to country far louder than my rap had been and he did not mind at all... shall I repeat this again just for good measure or are you going to get the point this time instead of making irrational assumptions.

Get what? That according to all you here I was distracting students who were also listening to music much louder than I in an enviroment where I was allowed to listen to music but judged because of the TYPE of music. If he had told me to turn off the music in general I wouldn't be upset but it is the discrimination to the genre that upsets me.
