Mid school and highschool closed. It is sad these kids have to deal with this.

Dems don't do tax reform where only the rich get richer or schemes to jump start the economy that are predicted to increase it by .1% while adding over a trillion to the defecit so that later they can cut safety net programs

when 1 woman comes out and says something, I'm a bit skeptical; in moores case there's the women, shop owners, security guards, business associates, ... all saying that he was a creepy bastard and would try to date highschool girls when he was in his 30s; that's sick shite

and good old trump has 20 women accusing him of being from inappropriate up to and including rape; are all of them lying??? I sincerely doubt it; legally he's innocent, but in truth I believe he's a serious scumbag and guilty... https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-interactive/2017/nov/30/donald-trump-sexual-misconduct-allegations-full-list

This thing needs english subtitles!

BTW this has to be the saddest stage and lighting I have ever seen for a PV. They got the good camera angles, and an editor who knows his shiat, but those lights...I have seen better in highschools! And almost no time spent on the routine.

Went to highschool with one of the "employees". Awesome guy.

Nggyaah!!

Highschool flashbacks.

In my day, bored kids just spray painted everything, beat up people, did drugs and got girls pregnant in highschool. What is happening with the world?

insane, back when I was in highschool there was no cops/guards/etc

We even had a smoking section, and guns could be brought on campus.

For smoking section you just needed a letter from parents that they knew you smoked. and on recess the smokers all hung out there.

To bring gun to school, it was during any hunting season. You had to have note from parents that they know. The gun had to be visible, either gun rack in back window of truck or in passenger seat. Rifles and Shotguns only no pistols.

You had to have your Hunter's Safety Course card, Your Hunting License both on you to give copies at office.

You had to leave your vehicle keys with the front office and submit to random vehicle search of the hunter's vehicles only.

So while everyone could go to their cars at recess, or if you had extra empty elective, some of us juniors would drive up to Hardees before lunch and grab fast food then be back before 4th period started, but the hunters had to leave their keys with front office and they could not retrieve them until end of school.

So much more freedom.

Smoking was banned on campus for students only my 10th grade year, but Teachers had the smoking lounge in building. There was a teacher's lounge on each hall, the back hall F where weight lifting, welding, home ec, and vocational classes were was where the teacher's smoking lounge was. Most students friendly with teachers could sneak in there and smoke anyhow.

crazy times.

I had a 84 Camaro and kept a flare gun under seat my dad owned a boat and had couple extra flare guns. So I had that for some crazy reason thinking if someone attacked me, at point blank range I'd put on a huge firework show


Then there was the stereotypes that were proven right not wrong.

The jocks hung out together, the headbangers/smokers hung out together, the nerds, the band folks like me as my senior year I was drum major
and the blacks stayed together all in separate cliques at lunch and recess and before/after school.

stereotypes even went further.

the only highschool girls with babies (during time I was there I stress) were black girls, they had to build a daycare from the old mechanic shop behind the highschool for them. And even though this was the early 90s in the south, you'd hear over the Intercom every 6 months "All Black female students to gym at this time please" where they'd get lectured on abstinence, or condom use, and std's and such.

the only time rest of the student body went through that was in 10th grade they'd take the boys one day, and girls the next day.

We had a blast though as the guys, the protection/std talk was given by one of the football coaches, and during the talk with the guys and showing various "shock images" of std's on penis on the TV, when he got to the "sex ed" portion, he flipped in a Nina Hartley porn intro where a nude Nina Hartley showed the correct way to place a condom on. haha was hilarious looking back before "political correctness" went out of control.

I loved highschool and college.

Graduated high school in 94, got associates in 96, took year off then got bachelors in computer science in 99.

But 89-94 (our highschool here in the deep south is 8th through 12th) most are 9-12, but not here. It's still 8-12th here. So it's nothing seeing 12th graders dating 8th graders. Freaky yea, but not unusual.


If you got into a fight, if a coach was around he'd let the fight finish, unless it got a bit too over the top then they'd break it up. You didn't get suspended, you lost recess privileges usually 3 days plus the starter of the fight got 10 licks of the paddle in principle office, the other only got 1 to 3, or if person was just dominated and got ass kicked you just got detention.


Kids didn't act up at all most times. And the reason was Corporal Punishment. Not private paddling either.


Once I was having a bad day, me and "highschool" sweetheart were having a bit of a spat. We sat next to each other so we were bickering a bit during class. Teacher had yelled at me to shut up and do the work. I sighed "Leave me the fuck alone"

bad move.

She called me to front of class and I got 5 licks of paddle in front of everyone. They'd stick finger in your belt loop and yank it up tight to put that extra sting on it. Embarrassing as hell! Even female older teachers who didn't paddle hard, it was just too embarrassing to get paddled, so kids behaved.


And of course if you refused paddling which you could but you'd take a zero for the day's work. few of those in a semester and no matter how hard you worked you were flunking that semester.


But the system worked.

It wasn't until they went crazy insane on political correctness, stopping corporal punishment, and putting cops/rent a cops/guards in schools and after the No Child Left Behind was signed into law, they severely dumbed down kids forcing the smartest to learn at the slowest kids pace. Doc's prescribing SSRI's like candy to kids in MASSIVE quantities, that schools in today's culture are crazy.

When I was in highschool there were some ~85 foot cliffs up the freeway from where we lived. We'd jump off those every summer, but no one figured it was dangerous. It was just the highest place we could find.
I don't know if we'd have jumped off a 200 foot cliff if we found one.

well... yeah... he has SOME point. There definitely should be a lot more pratical teaching up to the end of highschool.

Look, @EMPIRE all I'm saying is..

I appreciate your work there, but when it comes to these topics.. you're off the mark.

In America, if you're poor.. you're likely black.
You can't separate the two.

So if you discuss one, you're being disingenuous to leave out the other.

As a white, european man.. You're naive of this, clearly.

You're too gullible if you going to suggest that "gentrification isn't about race".

It's called "white-flight" for a reason.
My highschool girlfriend's father moved his family to the country to avoid black people (me).

So just like you say not American should comment on the "whiteness" of Portugal.

Euro-zoners shouldn't comment on whether is divided by "class" rather than race.

But I forgot, you're not racist cause you "don't blame ALL you problems on black people"

You just automatically jump to the conclusion that a group of young black highschooler, waiting to take the elevator up to there homes, are CLEARLY part of the "criminal element".

You just say shit like..

"Black people kill black people all the time, so why are those savages rioting now?"

Let me try that logic out..

"White bankers steal from & defraud other white people all the time, so why are you complaining about looting?

You white people never get up in arms about Bernie Maddoff or Jamie Diamond or Dick Cheney, so you have no right to complain"

Glad we can finally share some common ground assha- Lantern

Not outdated as such. Sure, it doesn't have as readily available content as reddit or imgur, so the "quick fixers" won't come here as much as they would before.

The community seems to have shrunk as well - I suppose we're growing up and busy, so there's less of a vibrant discussion going on. Democrats are in office, atheism is better, cats are cute. There's less to talk about now, unless you get into depressing stuff like Syria. There's no friendly competition anymore and the gamefication seems to have gone away.

To me it feels like videosift is like highschool - I've graduated, so there's very little reason to come back to the little pond, since most of my friends have moved on as well.

Videosift also seems to be developing in a direction that doesn't cater to me anymore - the new design doesn't appeal to me at all. If the whole thing changes to the new layout for single pages, I'm probably out for good.

yep, my backpack in highschool.... 1 or 2 schoolbooks, whatever fiction I was reading and about 20 cassettes 'cos you never know if today was a Slayer day, an Iron Maiden day or a Sepultura day (I listened to a lot of metal in my teens)
