[QUOTE=ThatSwordGuy;51377814]What's the worst is teachers that would count your answer wrong if you didn't [I]circle[/I] it. You know, cause it doesn't matter if you got the right answer, the most important step in mathematics is [I]drawing a circle around your answer[/I][/QUOTE] To be fair it is kind of a dick move to not distinguish your answer, since they're trying to get through the grading quickly. The point of showing the work isn't that they look at it while grading, but it's so that when you fuck up they can look and see why. They should probably provide a warning first though
[QUOTE=Water-Marine;51377326]Senior-level professors are goddamn insane. For my final steel class, our professor has decided that any work that gets less than a 70 gets an immediate zero. This means that a good quarter of the class, who would've easily been able to recover if on a standard grading scheme, had to drop out after their first exam.[/QUOTE] eh I'm used to that. the schooling I went to anything below a 70 was an automatic fail but this was medicine where the bar is set much higher. it pays off in the end because imo anything below 70 means you didnt prepare and don't know your shit very well.

In the UK this is basically entirely unheard of. There is also normally procedures in place to ensure that stuff like that doesn't happen in the first place; I am now studying music and our lecturers have explicitly stated that they can't arbitrarily decide what is a pass and what is a fail.
The "throw as much stuff as possible into your face immediately to soak up any kind of traffic you can despite whether the user wants it or not and wrestle control of the website away from them so you can get more traffic with clickbait ads" website model. Youtube front page is now just a ton of random popular videos and each video has 50 links to more videos and each video automatically loads more videos after it ends and recommends more videos and like and subscribe and share this video AAAARRRRRRRGHGHGGHGH
It's that time of year where bugs, snakes, scorpions, etc all invade houses to try and stay warm. I've killed about 45 of these weird orange bugs, that look like lady bugs but aren't, in the past hour. And there's still more. Every once in a while one will fly into my ceiling fan and get knocked perfectly onto my keyboard :v: I'm not looking forward to having to shoot snakes in my laundry room again this year.
[QUOTE=ProfHappycat7;51377297]i'm so fucking [I][B][U]pissed[/U][/B][/I] i got a 64 on a quiz i did in math because i didn't add these equals signs to my [B]WORK[/B], not my solution/answer ie stuff that literally makes no difference to the solution and is just a stupid thing to get marks off for a simple example of these equals signs i'm already getting shitty grades in math, i don't need to compound them with petty bullshit like this [editline]15th November 2016[/editline] i would've gotten an 80-90 if it hadn't been for those too, i only missed two questions[/QUOTE] Happens to me,my teacher reduced my grades just because i forget to add dots on the end of sentence.

To pass an exam in class 2,you need 75 point out from 100,the problem is every teacher teach us like a blazing cheetah (They can teach 2 chapter in one week) and im a slow learner,unlike other who can understand it in no time. Its worsen in the class 3 (the final class before you graduated) You need a goddamn 80 points out of 100. I feel like im not going to make it

Fuckings [B][U]water[/U][/B]. I've gone to the toilet for the [b]7th time in 2 hours!![/b] I'm trying to study!
So one of our 3rd year university modules requires us to get employed in a section relevant to an english degree, and then we start projects related to those changes. I came to uni so I wouldn't have to work for 3 years. Also What if you're already employed and like your job. Isn't the point of getting a degree so that you can apply to those jobs? What if you can't get a job. I mean, a whole bunch of undergrad students going for the same jobs at the same time? The uni is proud of having a high percentage of graduates who immediately get work or go on to further education. Like 90+ percent. Through the means of failing any who aren't getting jobs (and also doing mostly job-minded courses, but that's another thing entirely)
welp i failed a math assessment half due to my partner not knowing what to do (we were paired depending on your previous quiz grades, i.e. if you got 75 average you got paired with someone who got a similar grade, which leads to people with poor grades such as I just going lower) and half due to my own incompetence :suicide:
"we're going to be late." "no we're not" Bitch we can't make it there in 7 minutes
ffffffffffFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF goddamn skype, forgot my password and everything, tried entering it a few times, then I remembered, then it asks me for a code sent to an email address, fine I try checking my emails, it also asks me for a code, sent to another email address I try checking it on that one and guess what.....another motherfucking code is asked there too, sent to the first email address [editline]16th November 2016[/editline] Oh great, now I have to answer pages of stupid questions and if I don't answer them all I get to fill the stupid form again and again fuckass automated system
this isnt comparable to any of your problems but my favorite anime character has no merchandise
[QUOTE=Zelle;51381063]"we're going to be late." "no we're not" Bitch we can't make it there in 7 minutes[/QUOTE] For me its the opposite. "We're going to be late!" 'Its only 11:00' "But we have to be there by 12!" '[I]Bitch it takes 20 minutes to drive there fucking chill[/I]'
Waiting impatiently for the Dishonored 2 patches, I have a few days off from work and I'd love to play the game above 20 fps :(
Hopefully UPS will deliver later this afternoon after I get home because I'm too tired to take the slip over to the store and pick up my new phone.
[QUOTE=Pen Straw;51381596]Waiting impatiently for the Dishonored 2 patches, I have a few days off from work and I'd love to play the game above 20 fps :([/QUOTE] I hear people complaining about being unable to play, and I feel bad for them. I've already beaten the game once as Emily and now I'm going through it as Corvo. I just dealt with the frame drops.
[QUOTE=Davoc;51381467]this isnt comparable to any of your problems but my favorite anime character has no merchandise[/QUOTE] hey I have this problem too, it sucks

[QUOTE=FlakTheMighty;51377338]My sister's betta is all lethargic after a water changing. Well shit.[/QUOTE] It's probably temperature shock from cold water. Slowly raise the temp to 80 degrees over like 2 days and keep it there, he should be fine, bettas are tough as hell. Also if he's in a bowl (please no) take him out and put him in at least 5 or 10 gallons with a filter/mini heater. If it's new you will have to do a fish in cycle. Also I have chores and I don't want to do them. I also have no meat in my fridge for dinner so the bf will be annoyed, and i have no money to go to the store to get things either. Also laundry from my trip. I had to wash that stuff twice ugh. Oh and I still have no calls from anywhere I applied at. Fuck.
Can't pick up my phone from a UPS store, someone "MUST" be at my house tomorrow, because I can't just sign the slip the left apparently. Fuck offff.
There is a mosquito in my room in NOVEMBER
[QUOTE=Recurracy;51382379]There is a mosquito in my room in NOVEMBER[/QUOTE] I had a fucking wasp almost crawl in my ear last week. The fuck are those bastards doing alive, fucking die of cold.
The concept of "bad words"
[QUOTE=gk99;51382463]The concept of "bad words"[/QUOTE] Sounds like this fucking cunt needs some motherfuckin' soap. Anyway it has been cloudy all day here and my energy levels are at 0. Ehhh.

Seems like his tank specifically hates our water, my tank is fine with our water but putting water in his tank, ammonia level spikes. I added some ammonia remover stuff and he's swimming around today.
The new internet design - Getting as much personal information as possible and linking everything is supposed to make you "safe and secure" - The wrestling of control of software and websites away from the user. Now you just sit and wait while google does whatever it wants. - Not being in control of your own software is supposed to be "convinient" - The doing away of deleting. Google+ doesn't even let you delete pictures. Things are now "temporarily deactivated". You uninstall things and it keeps the files and folders, just in case you want to reinstall, someday. - Doing away of everything old, because it doesn't have modern sharing features. Youtube won't even let you search videos by date oldest to newest. It would like us to forget any old ever existed.
My mom gets so pissed when driving, she swears at every red light she stops at. Makes me so eager to start driving.
[QUOTE=Richardroth;51382683]My mom gets so pissed when driving, she swears at every red light she stops at.

And fuck the ups driver has to make more stops so now I have to wait another hour.

If the cycle is working, ammonia and nitrite should be zero and nitrate should be like less than 40ppm to be safe. If you add aquarium salt with each water change it can help the ammonia poisoning too. Also test the tap water, maybe the city fucked up and did too much chlorine or something.
