Brickbat: Big Baby

The Floresville Independent School District in Texas has disciplined a school bus driver caught on video calling an elementary school student a "crybaby" and trying to get other students on the bus to mock the girl. The school district did not reveal the name of the bus driver, whom parents know as "Ms. Pat," nor explain exactly how she was disciplined.

No one comment until I give the OK that Squirrelacolypse II has passed, who's with me?

[Fist of Etiquette]

I say we shun Plissken until he learns not to make his call to arms a catch-22. WHO'S WITH ME?

[Ted S.]

I say we sack both Plissken and Fist of Etiquette.

[Plissken/FoE Fan Club]

Boo! Hiss!!

[Fist of Etiquette]

I've been meaning to talk to you about the billing on that club name.

[UnCivilServant]

Right, the references to FoE should be removed, and the word Snark added.

[Snark Plissken]

My fans are legion.

[UnCivilServant]

You realize you left the link behind the Username the same?

[Snark Plissken]

That wasn't me, that was Tulpa/Rollo trying to make me look bad.

For once it's working OK for me and no one else, and you'd deny me my lonesome playground?

I am a posqrlpocalyptic wanderer of the wastes, hired by a partly taxidermized Squirrel to find his precious Platinum Nut.

I was back to 'normal' last night sometime.

UPDATE: The slag is no longer working for the district, although it's unclear if she jumped or was pushed

That Florida news channel uses DISQUS and offers a preview of comments from 4 articles at the page footer. At least 2 you can tell are a "black vs. white" race blame game without even reading the article. So is DISCUS or the news station as a venue the sewer? The answer is yes. Still, YouTube comments make this other sewer seem thoughtful by comparison.

[Ted S.]

I'm glad I'm not the only person who dislikes Disqus.

[UnCivilServant]

I've made sure it doesn't even display on my computer.

Symphysodon Thread!

I'm just gonna say that I'm not qualified to keep fish that don't fit down the toilet.

Next tank is just gonna be mollies/swordtails.
