IIRC, the traditional rule in LTM/SND/WTO was that people who used pics (let alone animated gifs) in their sig would face ritual torture for the amusement of all.

Mnemon, please drop the gif from your sig. Animated gifs in your avatar are one thing, sticking them in your sig is another entirely.

This is not the Vault.

Bring the noise.

I second this rule.

The very next step after clips from Attack of the fricking clones is people putting 'What video-game-character-am-I?' gifs in their sig.

If anyone starts doing that I may well end up taking a shotgun to my monitor.

So it's best we stamp all this nonsense out before it gets going.

It's the same question as why do high school math teachers suck? The answer is, a crack math mind can find a lot better job. So high school math teachers are either people not so good at math, or people really drawn to teaching high school students.

Working on a math minor I had to take a few classes with the Math for Education group...  There was a noticible quality difference between those students who were doing the math as part of a trip towards a higher degree in mathematics/physics/engineering and those seeking a career as mid-level educators.

Teaching high-school math to me would be the last stop on a road of career failure, to these people it was a high asperation.

Well, it's not like highschool algebra is brain surgery.  Calculus is a bit of a different game, but there aren't usually many calc classes at that level.

"Young people who pretend to be wise to the ways of the world are mostly just cynics. Cynicism masquerades as wisdom, but it is the farthest thing from it. Because cynics don't learn anything. Because cynicism is a self-imposed blindness, a rejection of the world because we are afraid it will hurt us or disappoint us." -SC
