Kids Today

[esa5444]

I ran into some punk kid today on his way to some party all dressed up in assorted commie regalia. Naturally, of course, he had it on as is in vogue, meaning his commie issue hat on crookedly, his commie patches on wrong, his collar wrong, etc, etc.
Now, I don't know him or anything, but I ordered him to straighten his hat, fix his collar, and re-affix his patches as per specification. When he refused to comply, I asked him for his name, rank, and Social Security Number, which he refused to give me. I informed him that he should be happy that he is in the United States, because conduct like this would get him shot in the old country. He just walked off.

I ordered him

This was your first mistake. Your sentence should have been "I whipped his pinko ass".

Depends. Wall-to-wall counseling is for ranking NCOs.

Blanket parties are for peers.

Yes. I changed my username. One of the school deans was getting a little to frisky about getting my personal information. People at this school has no concept of proper controlled access to information, how the information they give out says something about how they got it, or, frankly, how to lie effectively.

For example, when you have my non-school email that I never use to communicate for official school business, and no one involved in the matter has, but it is on Facebook, it becomes quite clear to me what you were up to. It becomes even more clear when I ask you how you got it and you tell me a person who doesn't have it gave it to you.

Luckily, this all has it's advantages. It's hard for me to find out who is talking to whom about what here by asking, they usually lie. However, what I have found effective is to slip one bureaucrat a piece of information, not necessarily true, but beneficial to me, and see which others mention it when I talk to them. It also means I can have a merry old time accusing them of violating confidentiality. "If you said that this conversation was confidential and doesn't leave this room, how did so-and-so know about it?, the Department of Education might like to hear about this".

Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

your first mistake was assuming that he spoke proper english and would understand your instructions.

you second mistake was not starting the conversation with a nice hard backhand.
