I dunno, I think it’s a bit more clever and less desperate than that. The teacher knows the kids are saying it a lot. Getting them to even lightly associate it with their learning objectives will help at least some kids academically. Mnemonics are stronger when they are memorable and repeatable after all.

There is no way the teacher thinks this will make learning “cool”. And the fact that co-opting it speeds up the process that skibidi will become “uncool” is probably just a fringe benefit to the teacher. Really, it’s a masterclass in psychology, a win-win.

Hey, give me a little credit…

I’ve managed to misrepresent two sides of an argument in this one.

Your last sentence gave me an idea.

Why don’t we put the Confederacy statues in something like an “American Slavery Museum”?

Its probably good to remember that these horrific ideas were once admired and honored, lest we become complacent. But putting them in the right context, i.e. next to evidence of the horrors wrought by their ideals, seems like the perfect place for them imho.

Edit: well, not every idea I have is a winner.

I dunno Yogi. I get that you are cool with jokes about trump and religion, but you immediately came to the defense of “dark humor” mfers. Seems like even you have your sacred cows.

naw man, I’m just fucking with you. I knew what you meant.

Dark humor mfers: “Everything is fair to joke about, race, gender, orientation, disabilities, everything”

Someone: makes joke about dark humor mfers

Dark humor mfers: “Now you’ve gone too far!”
