SCHOOL ANSWERING MACHINE (This is hilarious - no wonder some people were offended!)
This is the message that the Pacific Palisades High School (California) staff voted unanimously to record on their school telephone answering machine This is the actual answering machine message for the school.
This came about because they implemented a policy requiring students and parents to be responsible for their children's absences and missing homework. The school and teachers are being sued by parents who want their children's failing grades changed to passing grades - even though those children were absent 15-30 times during the semester and did not complete enough schoolwork to pass their classes.

The outgoing message:

"Hello! You have reached the automated answering service of your school. In order to assist you in connecting to the right staff member, please listen to all the options before making a selection:
* To lie about why your child is absent - Press 1
* To make excuses for why your child did not do his work- Press 2
* To complain about what we do - Press 3

* To swear at staff members - Press 4
* To ask why you didn't get information that was already enclosed in your newsletter and several flyers mailed to you - Press 5
* If you want us to raise your child - Press 6
* If you want to reach out and touch, slap or hit someone -Press 7
* To request another teacher, for the third time this year -Press 8
* To complain about bus transportation - Press 9
* To complain about school lunches - Press 0
* If you realize this is the real world and your child must be accountable and responsible for his/her own behavior, class work, homework and that it's not the teachers' fault for your child's lack of effort: Hang up and have a nice day!
*If you want this in Spanish, you must be in the wrong country."

I loaned my daughter's bassinette to a family member. My daughter is 2 now and will be my last child, I can't ever have anymore.

The bassinette is the same one I used with her sister and I had planned to keep it for them to use with their dolls because it holds sentimental value to me. I loaned it to this family member because she couldn't afford a crib right away. I told her when she took it to let me know when she was done with it and I'd have my husband pick it up.

She gave it away to a co-worker. When I asked about it, she said "Oh, I didn't think you'd need it anymore since you can't have anymore kids."

Is it unreasonable of me to think that she should have asked me first before giving it away?

I'm 26 and just joined a gym. I've been running for about a year now and now that I've got my legs pretty tone, I want to work on my arms. All of the machines at the gym are pretty intimidating. I want to make sure I do the exercises correctly and I'm not wasting my time.

Relax; the handcuffs are tight because they’re new. They’ll stretch out after you wear them awhile.

Take your hands off the car, and I’ll make your birth certificate a worthless document.

If you run, you’ll only go to jail tired.

Can you run faster than 1,200 feet per second? In case you didn’t know, that is the average speed of a 9 mm bullet fired from my gun.

So you don’t know how fast you were going. I guess that means I can write anything I want on the ticket, huh?

Yes, Sir, you can talk to the shift supervisor, but I don’t think it will help. Oh … did I mention that I am the shift supervisor?

Warning! You want a warning? O.K., I’m warning you not to do that again or I’ll give you another ticket.

The answer to this last question will determine whether you are drunk or not. Was Mickey Mouse a cat or a dog?

Fair? You want me to be fair? Listen, fair is a place where you go to ride on rides, eat cotton candy, and step in monkey poop.

Yeah, we have a quota. Two more tickets and my wife gets a toaster oven.

In God we trust, all others we run through NCIC.

Just how big were those two beers?

No sir we don’t have quotas anymore. We used to have quotas but now we’re allowed to write as many tickets as we want.

I’m glad to hear the Chief of Police is a good personal friend of yours. At least you know someone who can post your bail.

You didn’t think we give pretty women tickets? You’re right, we don’t.

Seriously, people, this could damage your kids by making them paranoid. Take heed, I am 32 and I have a mortal fear of storms because my mom rushed me to the basement everytime in stormed. A 32 year old male.

You'll eff your kids up by telling them about this crap and they'll be basket cases by the time they are my age.

As a side note, I don't believe in global warming but anything that stops storms is OK by me!

So we had a bit of a roach problem in our townhouse. The people next door never exterminated and when they left all the roaches (starving i assume) came over to our place. We have been exterminated, but in the mean time I have seen them out and about in the daytime. One time I felt one crawling on my head and another one crawled up my leg. I am so grossed out by this that it is keeping me awake at night. I put out 10 roach traps (but have only caught 2, so there can't be that many left) in an attempt to give myself peace of mind. However, now I always think they are crawling on me, I dream about it, I woke up in the middle of the night last night thinking one was on me. I keep thinking I see them out of the corner of my eye (even though my bf says there is nothing there). I don't even know how they survive, there isn't anything for them to eat..I am OCD about cleaning. Am I crazy that I keep seeing them even thought they aren't there? Will it ever stop?

I have never done anything that I can be proud of. I see friends and family who are able to pat themselves on the back for simple accomplishments and I wish I could build myself up like that too. I think I'm realistic, they thing I'm too hard on myself.

Maybe I've just never done anything that warrants being proud of myself. It seems like being proud would come from an accomplishment or overcoming something. Everything I've done is pretty normal and standard in life and that's nothing to be proud of. (satisfied, maybe, but proud?) Do you think I feel this way because I haven't done anything worth being proud of myself for or do you think I'm too hard on myself?

What have you done that you're proud of? Why?

the fact that you make your own money, your choices have widened, because you are free to pick from men who make 10k - Infinitum/y or do you feel that your choices have narrowed down to the men who are more successfull or at least as successfull as you ? Plz ingore the mens preferences for now, ie dont factor in men who dont want a less/more successfull woman, talk only about your own preferences.

My brother, who handles snakes alot, milks the snakes and then drinks the venom to build up an immunity. The other month he was bitten by a Tiger Snake, usually lethal and didn't die. Can you build up an immunity to venom by drinking it and smoking it? (apparently you get high from this)
