Well you mentioned users getting warned/muted for expressing their dissatisfaction. So I was thinking more along the lines of that. You may not see the post they were warned for, because if it was really insulting or profane, it was most likely removed. It's okay to be angry or upset and express that, but flaming is still unacceptable.
In May, I was told that teaching the 2nd and 3rd year middle school kids how to read large numbers was too easy for them.Guess who can't read the large numbers that are part of the lesson we're doing now.
I thought Paypal didn't even work well in Korea...?

But the remnants of the math teacher in me wants to point out that you should reduce that fraction to three-fifths.

I remember my dad's favourite mathematical expression when talking about politicians or people he didn't like, and that was 'he knows three-fifths of fcuk-all'. The answer being?

I wish my idiot co-teacher would stop telling students to open their books to "paygee 35." If you can't pronounce 'page' then you shouldn't be teaching English.
I'd like to preemptively rant about how my coteacher is going to give the kids the answer to whatever warm up I decided to do tomorrow.

Expats said last night Sept is usually still pretty humid most years.) Either way, it's Friday. Nothing to complain about here. Happy Friday everyone!!!You're in the wrong thread.Just kidding, have a good weekend.
