THE CURIOUS INDEX, 1/20/2012

Img_0172_tiny by Spencer Hall on

IN THE CUT AND IN THE FULMER CUP LEAD. Wiz, Leon Orr feels you so hard right now. (Not SFW audio, but it's Wiz Khalifa talking about fucking your bitch and keeping one rolled up, so duhhhhhh.)

We'll award points in a separate post, but yes, Leon Orr of the Florida Gators did consent to a search of his dorm, and did get caught in possession of weed and paraphernalia. Standard penalties will apply, but seriously, Leon: MAKE THEM GET A WARRANT.

AND THE LOUISIANA CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM HAS THIS, GUYS LOLOLOLOL NO REALLY. The Dixie Dipper: in custody, in trouble, and most importantly, no longer putting his hands all over the sporting goods at Hibbert's in Phenix City.

A DESERVED DAP IN RECOGNITION OF A DISTINGUISHED GENTLEMAN OF A CERTAIN AGE. Mike Gundy wins the Bear Bryant Award for coaching, and no, that is not ironic in the least considering the OK State title game debate.

HERB HAND IS QUALITY LISTENING. The Solid Verbal has Vandy's OL coach on to review the 2011 season, and unlike a lot of coaches, he sounds like he's having an active conversation rather than dodging questions.

THE CONTINUING IGNORANCE ABOUT FLORIDA FANS IS SO EVIDENT HERE. We have now concluded that even in otherwise funny, knowledgeable flow charts about SEC fandom, the large majority of SEC fans have no idea precisely what a Florida fan is. You should have just asked: it's 30% North Florida cracker-neck, 20% Miami asshole, 20% lumpy Tampa whatever, 15% out-of-state "I wanted to go to some place warm," and 15% recent immigrant. See, isn't that simple? (Not at all, but it's accurate.)

YOU TRAITOROUS BASTARDS. A school that does not exist cannot in theory cannot commit treason, but if they did exist, and hired A CANADIAN? Why do you hate America, theoretically extant school?

Think about it.

Balls may be genitals, but they are also just a body part. That’s why in Texas for a crime to be “sexual,” there has to be either intentional arousal or sexual gratification or genital-to-genital (or mouth in some cases) contact. So without those two things, this is just a body part touching a body part which is simple assault and/or disorderly conduct (because everyone saw your junk, dude).

Texas follows the Model Penal Code, so every other state that follows the MPC is pretty much the same. But as I said below, I’m no Louisiana lawyer.

I'm no Louisiana lawyer,

but in Texas this would be a drastically overcharged crime. At most it’s disorderly conduct (reckless about exposing your genitals). For it to come anywhere near a sex crime, the teabagging would have to be intentionally for the sexual gratification of a person. This was for humiliation, not sexual gratification. This doesn’t even reach public lewdness in Texas. I think it’s just a headline grabbing DA. But that’s cool. It’s not like there are a myriad of murders in NOLA every month.

[A](3) The offender is seventeen years of age or older and any of the following exist:
(a) The act is without consent of the victim, and the victim is prevented from resisting the act because either of the following conditions exist:
(i) The victim has paraplegia, quadriplegia, or is otherwise physically incapable of preventing the act due to a physical disability.
(ii) The victim is incapable, through unsoundness of mind, of understanding the nature of the act, and the offender knew or should have known of the victim’s incapacity.

Dissenting opinion

I live three miles away from my in-laws, and it has been a huge net plus, particularly as my kids have grown up. Then again, I’m blessed with in-laws who have never offered me one bit of unsolicited advice on anything (even though they are both pediatricians). If you get along with them and think you and your wife-to-be both have mature enough relationships with them that, at the end of the day, they will let you live your lives, then being close to at least one set of parents can be a real benefit.

I flew about 90,000 miles last year.

On some flights, babies cried. I’m a parent; I know that babies sometimes cry; and it rarely bothers me. The only time I get peeved about any of this is when parents are underprepared to fly with young children.

If you are traveling with a small child in any kind of confined space, airborne or not, you should be carrying on ample supplies of child-appropriate snacks, small, hard-to-break toys, quiet games to play, and coloring books. They also can learn appropriate etiquette about using inside voices and letting their neighbors nap. Kids with adequate distractions are lovely airline passengers — usually better than the drunken salesmen coming home after a week on the road. Kids who are tired, hungry, and bored can get really cranky.

When our oldest (now 24) was 9mos

We flew from Dulles to LAX, non-stop on an L1011. We were really worried that he’d freak on takeoff and when the cabin pressure dropped, so we were prepared with multiple remedies.

Five minutes before takeoff he fell asleep, slept through the entire takeoff, cabin depressurization, everything. Woke, had a bottle, fell back asleep. The FAs love him.

Same thing on the return. It was not a full flight, so I moved a couple of seats back, we put the armrest between seats up and he slept stretched out on the seats next to Mrs. with a beer for nearly the whole flight. Again, the FAs were ecstatic about him.

He was always a good traveler, that one. A comfy car seat and some Zwiebacks, and he made the LA-to-SF drive up the PCH with nary a screech.

If you ever need to fly to Europe with a baby . . .

. . . both Air France and SAS will dote on children like you wouldn’t believe. Their long-haul planes have bassinets you can attach to the bulkhead row wall. (It’s row 23 on AF.) SAS will even bring you warm bottles of infant formula with the meal service. Kids on those flights seem to do quite well.

Any airline where you don’t have status is basically a Trailways bus with wings. And, in my experience, nobody nickels and dimes more aggressively than United.

Southwest flights, just say something nice to the attendant when you get on the plane, and dont have your card ready when you get a drink, half the FAs will just give them to you if you are friendly

I’m a generally cheery, well-dressed person on a flight (well, chinos and a polo, usually). Was never charged for my beers on any SWA flight in the past two or three flights. I don’t fly a lot, maybe once or twice a year, so it’s not a big deal, but still nice.

I have to be honest with you, I have one test to determine how good an airplane is.

Unless you’re flying 5-10x per month, no one really has enough experience to answer this individually. Aggregate data is great, but if an airline fucks you once or twice, no one’s going to forgive them.

Best they’ve done for me: Last January I visited friends in Chicago, scheduled flight MDW-OMA on Monday night at like, 9. Wake up Monday morning and see massive winter storm bearing down on Chicago. I switched to a 10 AM flight and bumped myself to Business Select. Not only no change fee, but they didn’t charge the difference in airfare (which should have been about $200). Made total sense for everyone involved, and I got home before the storm shut everything down without paying out the ass.

exactly.

My only issue was them losing my bag on a flight from MCO to DTW. They located my bag, told me it would be back in a couple days. If I picked it up at the airport they’d give me a $50 voucher. I worked at DTW at the time and there wasn’t anything crucial in my bag…fine. I show up at the baggage claim desk to get my now found article and the guys says “I’m going to go ahead and double your voucher just for the trouble.”

unnecessary, but perfect response. I fly with their airline again (because of the voucher) and they’ve not only corrected the problem but compensated me (even though I never asked.)

My work is such that if it doesn’t get done right, a whole heap of shit goes wrong. Therefore it is very important that I do things right, preferably the first time around. My mistakes get expensive quickly, and can draw the unwanted oversight of people on the federal payroll. Experience can be a harsh mistress, so I’ll be dag nabbitted if I fuck something up because I’m lazy or know someone with authority. My actions carry responsibility, just as do my in-actions. Short story long, I don’t fuck up much. Your co-worker could learn a thing or two about that. Good luck teaching the dipshit.

Here's the thing:

There are so many dumbasses(and I’m not saying you’re one) who fill those out with “The professor hated me, and failed me for no reason,” even when they did half the work, skipped a ton of class, and generally earned their failure, that departments usually don’t take them into account nearly as much as you’d like.

Some instructors read the comments, and try to get better, but those usually aren’t the people getting ripped in the reviews.

Pretty much

One of my classes this fall, I had to borrow a pencil from the guy next to me to fill out eval on the last day (yay, scantron forms). As a price, he had me walk his form up when he was done. I snuck a peek at it, he’d rated the prof/class as very poor for every category.

This was of course the guy that was on facebook on his laptop for the first hour of every class and left after an hour every single week.

I am frank and honest.

Last semester: "I did poorly in this class, because I went to class maybe twice a month. Not because I’m lazy but because it is hard to motivate myself for a class where the teacher drones on about things that are unrelated to the course. When students would ask questions she would treat them like complete idiots. As a senior, I could almost take it, but if I was a freshman girl like half of the class (ed. ;) ) I don’t know how I would handle the situation. I had heard horror stories about Dr. S——- but was unable register for another instructor because they were all listed as TBA. I can only assume that this is because the department realizes how terrible of a teacher and human Dr. S——- is and …..blah…blah…blah

I don’t usually fill them out unless I have something I really want to say, good or bad

but I’m not sufficiently confident in the fact that they would give him the ass beating he deserves anymore.

could be, certainly hope so

But usually when kids are acting out (this isn’t quite acting out, but it’s close), they’ve been exposed to more than words. I’ve worked a bunch of these cases and they always begin with a story like this. Then again, I don’t see the ones that begin like this and end with nothing, so there’s admittedly some observation bias.

by Ardbeg on Jan 20, 2012 1:22 PM EST up reply actions  

Might be observation bias

but as a teacher, she’s most likely a mandatory reporter, so both the moral obligation to protect the child and the statutory requirements of her occupation happily coincide in this instance. In her shoes, I’d err on the side of caution and report the incident.
