DC comics is killing off Damian.
This is why I like comics. They actually have a good fatality rate.
Or at least they do for characters who are known as Robin.

I didn't notice this before but my programming teacher has a link to this on the front page of the class website, with the caption "Don't let this be you."
Sweet cheezits this is so incredibly true for high school. Any high school. Any standard level classes. There will be many people just. like. this.

On a side note, why are so many programming teachers so awesome? It's a noticeable yet highly appreciative trend.

It doesn't. It just gets boring when people don't die even after 3 or 4 fake deaths. (I'm looking at you, Sylar)

I simply don't relate to people and their passive aggressive lashing out at anyone who ever expresses a serious idea, especially when there's nothing about it that demands their attention if it bothers them.  Like nobody is allowed to care about anything that they don't also care about, and expressing that concern in a way that they don't understand is some criminal act.

Except here is the thing

The ONLY people allowed to die off for real in comics are ones who no one is interested in anymore or who are very minor characters.

Everything is covered in ice today, but no snow. I'm having flashbacks to the Great Triangle Ice Storm.

This is caused by one of three things
1) Snow that melted and then refroze
2) Sleet
3) Freezing rain

Because if a programmer doesn't like teaching kids a lot, they have good enough job prospects that they can pretty much instantly get hired elsewhere for three times the pay. If a programmer is teaching, that's because it's their hobby.

This probably should've made the "happy" thread instead, but quite frankly I'm shocked enough for it to be placed here.

Now where did I put that appellate brief....

Speaking of gay marriage, someone facebook'd me this. It was extremely lulz-worthy.

So how come my programming teachers aren't cool or even all that good at teaching? :P

Maybe your teacher in particular wasn't very good at programming?
High school programming is pretty easy to say the least.
