BiPolarBear 476 Posted May 29, 2014 I would like your geek feedback, please. The sophomore class of at my daughter's high school is headed off the the Holocaust Museum in Dallas on Friday, the last day of school. The history teacher is taking them, and I agree it is an important part of history that should not be overlooked or forgotten. I just question the timing. I mean, they could of gone the day before Christmas break. (kidding) The last event of their sophomore year? Really? I remember how happy I was on the last day of school. Seems like kind of a Debbie Downer thing to do to me. Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
patweisers44 697 Posted May 29, 2014 Yeah, it does seem like a weird way to end a school year. On the bright side, the kids will now know the answer to "whats worse than finding a worm in your apple?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IGotWorms 3,310 Posted May 29, 2014 Yes that is odd, but I'd just keep your mouth shut except maybe to tell your kid that you think the history lesson is important but he shouldn't lose focus of the accomplishment of finishing out the school year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GobbleDog 816 Posted May 29, 2014 the Holocaust Museum in Dallas How many Jews did we kill in Texas? Probably a few, but enough for a museum? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulinstl 295 Posted May 29, 2014 How many Jews did we kill in Texas? Probably a few, but enough for a museum? It has to do with the state flower, the Yellow rose. If you've ever been to Dallas you'd understand. Everywhere you look you see a Rosenbloom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BiPolarBear 476 Posted May 29, 2014 I thought they changed the name of this to AT&T Stadium Before the first game there, I googled it and some guy called it the Death Star. I was hoping it would stick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NorthernVike 2,080 Posted May 29, 2014 Dumb. But I understand why a focking liberal ass teacher would do it on the last day of skool. That way, they don't have to have a serious discussion about the Holocaust the next day in class. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thornton Melon 544 Posted May 30, 2014 I think they should be taking Finals on their last day of school, but that's just me... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
penultimatestraw 473 Posted May 30, 2014 What the fock does this even mean? I don't know how he determined the teacher's political affiliation, but part of his point is the teacher is avoiding extended discussion revolving around antisemitism, Nazism, etc. by not having class the next day.
