    I wish I could make a facebook post that would make me 1% the money this one is going to make her.

    1. Bra Ket   8 years ago

      Depends if she gets national attention. It happened over ten days ago according to the story and I don't see anything but local stories and a few blogs.

  2. Fist of Etiquette   8 years ago

    "If this offended you in anyway (sic) do me a favor and unfriend my American ass!!!" the post said.

    Someone's HR department is dropping the ball.

    1. Bubba Jones   8 years ago

      That seems like the crux of the matter. Do they discipline other teachers for saying "ass"?

  3. Trigger Hippie   8 years ago

    S? something, Jose something.

  4. Fatty Bolger   8 years ago

    Half of the Reason staff thinks the brickbat is for the school, the rest think it's for the teacher.

  5. CE   8 years ago

    If you see something, say something.

    1. Trigger Hippie   8 years ago

      I already covered that!!!..With horrible puns!!!

  6. josh   8 years ago

    People are idiots.

  7. tutu helper   8 years ago
