My hospital has the cafeteria open at like 2am, hardly anyone is there so the dude a the grill will do whatever you want. I had him make me a burger with a fried egg and bacon on it. It was amazing.
Learned of a new company site, which was spurred by a break in of such patience and quality, I have to respect it....barring the breaking and entering part of a company whose products I enjoy.

Is that not a common thing? Because the local high school does it too.
No, that's fuckin morbidly crazy.
Death is walking around plucking students randomly from class, and then their entire course load for the day gets fucked, and they are ostensibly ostracized by the rest of the school.
Its so fucked on so many levels.
My school had it planned, not random students, cause if it was random it'd be really easy for a student to just go "nah" and not participate in it.

It was more stupid than fucked honestly.
It's one of the most insane things I've ever heard.
Teens in the US aren't even allowed to drink. This whole thing is mind-boggling.
edit: i guess that's not really relevant since hte idea is presumably the lesson sticks. But there's just so much wtf here I can't find anything in particular to latch onto.
I imagine this comes from the same sorts of minds who thought DARE would be an effective anti-drug campaign or that the scared straight program would stop kids from doing a crime.
In other words daft adults who have completely forgotten what being a teenager is actually like.

I'm not sure whoever came up with this is totally on top of what being a human is like.
So today at the high school they are, in conjunction with the local police force, doing their Every Fifteen Minutes activity.
Every fifteen minutes they play a muffled heart-beat over the intercoms. Then somebody dressed up as a grim reaper walks the school, and plucks a student out of a classroom. That student then goes over to the library where the theater & art teachers apply make-up to have them look deceased. The student is then returned to their class and for the rest of the day they do no work, they don't talk and then just sit/walk around silently.
At the end of the day we have an assembly where the whole school gathers out at the parking lot to observe a simulated crash scene.
Oooh boy...
Holy shit. I think I liked it better when I was in school and they gave zero fucks about us.

They definitely did this at the high schools when I was growing up, too.
What is this I don't even.

The best drunk driving thing I did (by best mean I enjoyed it, not that it was functional) was in driver's ed when they had you put on the drunk goggles and drive a car through a traffic cone course.
Of course, the thing was seriously misguided since the bigger risk is buzzed driving with marginally reduced reaction speeds, not black-out everything-is-blurry driving.

They may not be allowed to but boy do they.
Speaking of which, my daughter an I were exploring some trails behind the local school the other day and came upon a pile of empty beer cans. Ok, this is normal, I mean, of course it's a problem but it's a normal problem and expected for a certain population of teens. She and I started cleaning it up when I noticed a very large Listerine bottle amidst the empties. Now, I've ridden the subway often enough to have seem plenty of crazy homeless people drinking Listerine because the liquor store won't sell to them, but fucking teens? Seems like an awfully young age to be developing a major drinking problem.

Hot damn, you did that with an actual car? We just did golf carts during one of our Health classes.
My teacher said I did disconcertingly well.
Edit: Although I also basically failed the coordination sobriety tests while sober, so...

Aren't those tests just to let cops manufacture "probable" cause?

We had two new lion cubs born recently. They were seen for the first time about a week ago. Three days ago one was witnessed dying in the sun a few metres away from its apparently unconcerned mother. Today I found the other, alone, covered in mud and calling for mum with no sign of the rest of them nearby.
Not sure why she would abandon it. Poor wee thing.
That reminds me when my high school got ready for the big inter-high athletics meet they pretty much let the seniors have free reign to put together a cheer section. So this one guy put together this fucking amazing devil costume. He wore a big black cloak while riding on another kids shoulders, who was holding walking sticks so it looked like he was twelve feet tall with giant fuckin goat legs. He even had his own entrance music, some rad metal that would start playing at random and we would all flip our shit. He would basically come out and act incredibly over the top evil about how we will literally devour the other schools, but in a much funnier way than I could do it justice describing it. He was a born comedian.
So of course it lasted all of a week and half before parents shut it down. He quickly rebranded as a "blue bull" (local provincial rugby team) and toned down the devil speak but it wasn't the same.

The Science Place In Dallas had a thing was a diving game/simulator where you could choose how many drinks you had at the party, but no matter how many you chose and how well you fought the drunk steering it would eventually take over and force you off the road and into a tree.
Unless you chose 0 drinks, in which case you almost make it home but get hit by a drunk driver crossing the divider.

I mean
that is an amazing burger

Yeah, but there's still no coffee.
Also that would be rude to the plumbers.
It's one of the most insane things I've ever heard.
Teen me thought it was the dumbest possible thing and for once adult me agrees.
That planning anti-drunk driving campaigns shouldn't be done after drinking too much themselves and coming up with cornball ideas, I guess.
edit: i guess that's not really relevant since hte idea is presumably the lesson sticks. But there's just so much wtf here I can't find anything in particular to latch onto.

That's ridiculous. And most likely ineffective.
Holy shit. I think I liked it better when I was in school and they gave zero fucks about us.
Welcome to basically all American public education campaigns.
Welcome to the US.
They definitely did this at the high schools when I was growing up, too.
This also sounds like more fun than the average assembly
I'm completely sure nobody ever bothered lecturing us about drugs.

you guys don't practice human sacrifice..?

Fingers crossed. That interview went so well. The interviewer slipped a "When you start..." into an explanation of benefits and I almost lost it.
So. Close.
Let me have this.

Remember, the anti-drunk driving movement is pretty much dominated by neo-temperance sorts. So it's not surprising that they do this shit.

I hated it.
I always have a weird reaction to DARE because it makes me think of my dad because he was a DARE officer for most of my childhood.
