Let It Go, Please
“Frozen” really hit the world hard. Nobody could escape its immense gravitational pull. Everybody heard the songs, saw the characters, and – even if it was under duress – watched the movie. “Let It Go,” the standout song of the movie, is an amazing piece of music, and if you do not like it, then you are wrong. There, we said it.
HOWEVER, even the biggest fan, having to listen to it without end will make it something that stings in your ears. One classroom had heard it just about enough and decided that something had to be done. Did this sign actually help?
It's Nice to Be Prepared, at Least
Time to wake up, kids. School is about to start. This teacher is fully aware that a loud noise will get kids to look up from their phones or take their earbuds out, but he also does not want to scare them. So, he lets them know beforehand. It all makes perfect sense.
After that, of course, it is down to business as usual, learning about gerunds or the Alamo or the quadratic formula or something like that. The best part is that this tactic would work well at the beginning of the day or at the end of the day.
Or Both, We Guess
You are probably aware of Schrodinger and his famous cat example of quantum physics. A cat is placed inside a box with a radioactive element that is triggered by opening the box. The element will kill the cat fifty percent of the time, and leave it alive the other fifty percent. Is the cat dead or alive?
Well, common knowledge says it's both, but Schrodinger was actually mocking the scientists that argued for quantum states – he was actually saying we just don't know. The cat is either alive or dead, but you won't find out until you open the box.
Well? And? Go On?
It is simple to make a joke out of the “there are two kinds of people” setup. This one is a little bit trickier than some of them, just because you have to know about the joke's format beforehand, but as long as you've been around for a decade or so, you've probably heard it.
This one is great because, apparently, while this professor was walking around wearing this shirt, there were a bunch of students coming up to him and asking if his shirt was missing a second part. It isn't. That's the entire shirt. Hopefully, you get it.
I Need to Do a Thing
Chloroform is used for many things. It is not just for soaking it into a rag and knocking out intrepid teenage detectives, despite what the Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, and Scooby-Doo told us. It is a solvent, a reagent, an anesthetic, and it also acts as something called a “Lewis acid.”
In fact, using it to knock somebody out takes a good five minutes and requires a good amount of the substance. Not only that, an attacker would have to support the chin in the right way to keep the tongue from blocking the airway. Much harder than it seems.
