Or the equivalent. Kinda weird that school was suspended two Fridays in a row here.

(trying to start talking/posting in the forums, delete this if it's a low-effort post or the like)

How did you get suspended two Fridays in a row, you criminal and reprobate

Some people never learn.

After getting suspended the first friday, shoulda just skipped the second.

What a strange person.

you really thought about this for three days?

Not that I recall.  I think there was a year or two in middle school where a planned in-service day for the teachers lining up with holiday or something that gave us either two long weekends in a row.  Usually that was arranged to give us one four day weekend vs. two three days though.

If such a thing ever happened, I couldn't recall my school schedule well enough to tell you.

I was in grad school by that time so no.

There was a bomb threat on campus though on the day of 9/11, but I was already done with classes and going home anyway.

Oh, I didn't even think this was a 9/11 thing.  I was working when 9/11 happened. We were in the office, but everyone just sat around watching the TV in the break room and listening to news on the radios.

I also didnt think this was about 9/11, I thought it was some british kid writing the date in the wrong order and saying they got no school on 9/1 and 9/8 in the last two weeks. This thread is weird and OP is retarded either way.

Yeah I had a bout of dyslexia or some shit and read the numbers backwards or some shit.

Anyway, yeah let's go with what your last sentence says.

Nah it's not about 11/9, and ye I'm not british but I'm retarded 

You should make an alt called RetardedPancake. 

My assumption was also what they were European aka retarded, it was the only way I could parse anything about that date since I know all the other countries do it backwards and wrong. They should be embarrassed.

The important thing is he admitted to being retarded.

I would rather admit that I'm retarded and get commended than screaming 'oMg yOu gUyS aRe sO mEaN aNd i"M a GiRl sO uSe tHe RiGhT pRonOuNs'

Well now you went and did both. Great job

Wow.  He thinks this is being mean.

Nah that's how things are here lol 

Hi End is your pfp supposed to be a grim reaper or something

Sure let's go with that.

I always thought he was based off that one ghoul from Lord of Shadow Keep.

Potentially one of many classic hooded faceless figure influences, though not the oldest one. That would be the phantom from the old C64 game Forbidden Forest (With skeleton minions)

But... But I always thought...

If you wanted his attention you shoulda tagged him, that's how it's done around here

Guess it's time to pull this out 

He's actually a cat. meOW!

(Yes, End 100% consented to this being drawn. He was even the one who requested it.)

So you've chosen death.

Damn. I knew it was too early to pull that out.

It's treason then.

degend

I can't believe it. School was just suspended the third time due to a bad rainstorm. But our school decided to make us have online lessons lol.

Rain? You cancel for rain? Where do you live, California???

Once my school canceled for snow and then it didn't snow.

My school cancels when it legally required to and not a second before

My university classes are constantly cancelled because of strikes. Some teachers wouldn't even tell us which classes will be cancelled beforehand, so that it inconveniences students and forces the government to give lecturers better pay or something like that.

That's interesting, and frustrating. Y'all are paying for those classes (well, if you live in America). At the very least, the teachers are wasting your time. Their cause is valid, but the situation is less than preferable

It's the UK, where everyone strikes from buses to hospital staff. But yeah, it's super annoying since we've paid for those classes, although some of the nicer lecturers would email us about which sessions would be affected by the strikes.

I was in class as a kid when 9/11 happened, while living in Long Island with most kids’ parents working in the city.

School was not cancelled that day or after.

I love how 1/9 somehow got translated to 9/11 ^_^

I think the fact the thread didn't make any sense turned it into one of those Rorshach tests where our brains had to overlay their own meaning. And everyone had 9/11 on the mind given Miss Hatter moved the contest deadline to then to celebrate.
