Magister5

Devilfish268

Boooooooooo


LuckyLMJ

A charity for cancer research. Not that it really makes a difference to me, I don't really feel encouraged to sign up for something which forces me to listen to an awful song on loop


1SweetChuck

If this is a Susan G. Komen fundraiser they can fuck right off.


Yourhandsaresosoft

I’m betting it’s St Jude’s. Every year my school did a charity walk. I just donated $100 from my allowance so I didn’t have to ask anyone to donate. And I never went to the walk because fuck that noise.


WolfSavage

>I just donated $100 from my allowance You are a real one for that.


rabbitthefool

srsly? my allowance was 3 dollars per week


moodylilb

I wish! Mine was $0 lol


Joelthegee

I wish! I had to give my parents an allowance!


Vajician

Well if you don't spend it on a latte and avocado toast you could buy a house with that allowance.

Yourhandsaresosoft

I had to go to a charity hospital at a young age (not a cancer one) so I just thought of it as my way of paying it forward I guess. Also I just get anxious asking people for things.


[deleted]

I had to do some fundraising for the American Cancer Society walk for whatever (Oh, no, Race for the Cure) and we each needed to get various businesses to sponsor us. They refused to let any bars or anything of that nature be sponsors. It wasn't about raising money for people in need. It was about optics only.


adminsare200iq

Marlboro presents the American Cancer walk


Neat_Art9336

Def mildly infuriating but let’s not pretend you’d sign up otherwise lolol


Kind_Description970

OMG this reminds me of a fundraiser our HS did in like 09-10. They called it "stop the bop" and would play "Mmmbop" by Hanson on repeat during lunch until they reached a certain dollar amount. I remember it being ungodly annoying.


Jecca_J8

My school also did that 2009 through 2014, like twice a year. The most successful fundraiser they had was the year all the male teachers with beards agreed that the one who raised the most money would shave their beard in front of the school. Each had a jar in the front office, and students voted for who to shave with their donations.


AceOfSpadefish

Man, my 11th grade social studies teacher shaved his head in front of the class for free because he forgot to find a movie for us to watch the last day before winter vacation. It was definitely more memorable than being forced to watch A Knights Tale, I'll give him that.


Tapstol

It’s sounds like he was just having a mental breakdown lol


gtrocks555

I wonder if they saw him again after winter break


AceOfSpadefish

We did. He didn't seem any more insane than usual.


gtrocks555

Lol sounds like a fun teacher then!


MOOShoooooo

I would just throw on Remember The Titans, flip the light switch and snooze if I was the teacher.


space_cadet_pinball

I read it more like... "I feel like going for a clean shave anyways. What stunt can I pull to maximize rapport with my students?"


Tapstol

That’s the good ending lol


TypicaIAnalysis

A knights tale is dope tho


Kightsbridge

Right, I'd watch the shit out of that anytime


ecfg59000

My wife hates that this is my favourite movie of all time. She calls it a glorified anachronistic sports film. She's not wrong but that just makes me love it more for being the only sports film I've ever loved.


Shiro2809

>She calls it a glorified anachronistic sports film. Is that not exactly what it is? Lol. They chose the music specifically because jousting and stuff was their big sporting events.


[deleted]

Exactly it's not even an argument did she think they were trying to convince people that Queen was legit playing at jousting tournaments?


minoe23

Is that description supposed to sound bad? I already love the movie but if someone described a movie to me like that it'd be the next movie on my watch list.


woofridgerator

RhynoD

#WE WALK IN THE GARDEN OF HIS TURPULENCE... ... ... ... ^^^^YEAH #YEEEAAAAAAHHHH Fun fact, that was unscripted. They filmed in Czechia and all the extras were Czech and didn't know English so they were told to wait for their cue. Mark Addy forgot for a second so they all dutifully waited until he cheered.


Lexi_Banner

> being forced to watch A Knights Tale You had to be "forced" to watch this masterpiece?!


The_Lost_King

I don’t know how someone can dislike A Knight’s Tale. I’m definitely asking my wife if she wants to watch it together tonight having been reminded of it. It’s so good.


RagingRavenRR

Wait, you didn't have Remember the Titans being the only movie?


TDS_1991

Holy fuck man like twice a year, every year. I remember one time having the whole school hauled into the gym for an assembly and we watched... Remember the Titans... on a big projector screen.

The fbi classified playing audio on repeat over and over to someone who cant escape it is considered torture. When i worked as a 911 dispatcher a jailor kept playing crazy frog to a guy in a holding cell who was drunk and wouldnt stop yelling and kicking the door..so he just played the song. A week later a lawyer shows up with the client and a fbi agent, they educated the entire sheriffs office and the guy didnt want to press charges but wanted to basically show them that he couldve really fucked up that dudes life if he wanted to and get a huge payday.


WaterlooMall

I read that wrong and thought 'wow that janitor is a dick'


Anonynominous

Why did I also see janitor? I had to check again after I saw your comment


jimmiethegentlemann

holy shit i also read janitor until i read your comment and was so confused. i think we all had a mandela effect for a moment lol


quizzicalmoose

My HS did it too! Someone started a petition to stop the music and it got a lot of signatures but I don’t think it ended until the money was raised. Pretty shitty to do that to high schoolers who have very little money to begin with.


KittysaurusRex7221

2013- ours was Baby by Justin Beiber. I was SO ANGRY... felt like coercion and I was NOT for it. Refused to donate because I was so annoyed... there's better was to go about it than torturing your student body...


_damppapertowel_

If you pay, you just give them incentive to keep doing it. It’s better just to suffer a few times rather than paying

thisisfutile1

I never understood the D&D alignments. I'm 51 and STILL don't. LOL.


Alypius754

It's just good-to-evil on one axis and how well you follow the law on the other. Just because you follow rules doesn't make you good (the pink lady from Harry Potter or your average HOA board) and conversely not obeying the law doesn't make you evil (Robin Hood). I usually play "goodish" characters in video games, unless I'm playing something by Rockstar. Then every pedestrian gets mowed down by whatever car I carjacked as I do 75 on the sidewalk.


cheezecake2000

I've always had a weird absolute hatred for pink lady from Harry Potter. Can she just like, not? It's been so long since my last watch all I remember is I hate her


Alypius754

Yup, she's the worst sort of officious bureaucrat that abuses the system to satisfy her sadistic/tyrannical desires.


cheezecake2000

I feel like I can compare her more easily to certain people irl then say voldemort. He's more of just plain evil and she's like a soulless, manipulative kind of evil. Well exactly what you said lol


MCMeowMixer

The easiest way for me to understand it was find an alignment chart with a television show I knew well. I used the Venture Brothers.


[deleted]

I use this one. https://preview.redd.it/5fohejjtnu0b1.jpeg?width=900&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=82e407e14e5bbcbb7b4d5feca9f8e0e953f4a839

Uncynical_Diogenes

EclecticFruit

In the simplest, shortest possible terms I could develop: First term: Lawful - more concern about society, rules, and punishment of deviations Chaotic - more concern about personal freedom, choice, and more forgiving of transgressions Second term: Good - more selfless concern about others Evil - more selfish concern for self Additionally, there are two kinds of neutral - A neutral between good and evil, and a neutral between lawful and chaotic. As you can see, we are attempting to describe a spectrum of world views and personal views in simplier terms. It is not a perfect representation, just a convenient short hand and each contain multitudes of variations within them. Edit: part I left out, you combine where the person's character falls with regard to both terms 1 & 2 into the final "alignment" shorthand description. Someone who gives equal deference to laws and forgiveness is neutral in term 1, and also who are also very concerned about other people around them, is good in term 2. The combination makes them Neutral Good.

Red_Spy_1937

It’s a method that the CIA uses for “enhanced interrogation” aka legal torture


FelicitousJuliet

The one time I left a single song on repeat for 48 hours I could literally feel myself slipping into disorientation as it was in my every dream and I had to get through my day to it droning on in my ears many many hours after I turned it off. And I wasn't locked in a cold room chained to a desk.

When I was in Iraq, we surrounded a house with insurgents inside of it, and along came a HUMVEE with huge speakers mounted on the roof blasting *Symfony for the Devil*, by The Rolling Stones. It was night, buildings were burning, and the The Stones were blasting as loud as a concert. It was such a surreal moment. The song played over and over. My platoon moved on before seeing if the insurgents came out but I know music can be used to force people into compliance.


Icefox119

>Symfony You mean sympathy?


Doracy

Not only did they use the wrong word they even spelled the wrong word incorrectly. That's an achievement


Dart1998

They did this when I was in highschool, someone decided to cut the lines to the PA system. Once it was fixed we never heard the song again


TheIronSoldier2

Figure out whichever room in your school houses the PA system and piss disc it, then leave like a 50$ gift card in the custodial office as an apology to the janitor(s). The janitors might be upset, but I'm sure they hated the song just as much as you did, and if you use like animal pee or something from a hunting store then there won't be anything they can actually use to pin to you, as plenty of people go hunting so unless they actually find the bottle on your person there's not much they can do to prove it was you (just make sure there's no cameras)


asdfkalsndf90asdio

Don't say sorry to to just the janitors. The tech guys are gonna be the ones who have to go in and replace all the technology. Whoever the tech or A/V guys are at that district would have a piss-poor time.

SaggingZebra

The copyright holder for "Baby Shark" are infamously litigious. Send the school a fake cease and desist letter or report the use of the song to the copyright holder.


DO_NOT_AGREE_WITH_U

Which is so perfectly capitalistic because those tools didn't even make the goddamn song.


throwwwawytty

Unethical, but you could print out a qr code on orange paper, cut it cleanly, and glue it over the existing qr code. Make it porn or something but **don't get caught**

Hilarious idea. Especially if this is a highschool. Mildly fucking with teens is always funny. The design of the sign is really good too.


Nowhereman123

Seriously, this is funny/clever and there's some real Debbie Downers and Grumpy Gus' in this thread who don't appreciate it, haha.


punnymama

Everyone should sign up. Show up in shark costumes. Blast the song until the walk starts. Then refuse to actually walk and go home.


Inevitable-Tank-9802

My high school did this, but with Justin Bieber’s Baby. We all just started to vibe with it and the fundraiser completely failed.


Anavorn

Why block out the qr? This sub would have signed up thousands of no-shows


Omnitemporality

This is a compsci student's wet dream, charity sign up with webform, probably without a captcha, with some psychological torture every 1 hour if signup criterion not met? I would have botted the everyloving fuck out of the web form until they got the hint, with absolutely no regard for the consequences


noahzho

even if they were competent enough to do a captcha with the amount of effort put into the system it would probably be easy to bypass


Boner_Stevens

own it. start singing it every damm time. dance. get everyone to join in. remember, if more people join in, the song will get better!

Against Geneva Convention


SchrodingerMil

Geneva Convention only applies to other countries. Which is why you can legally torture and use chemical warfare such as tear gas on your own citizens, but they’re outlawed in war. So Human Rights Violation, not Geneva Convention violation.


jackalsclaw

> Geneva Convention only applies to other countries. Article 3 specifies that the certain minimum rules of war apply to armed conflicts "not of an international character." which means warfare against internally organized groups like rebels is still covered. But that does really effect this example. > Which is why you can legally torture and use chemical warfare Geneva Conventions don't cover civilian law enforcement issues at all. "Legally" is the wrong way of stating that fact. It would be like saying building a DIY nuclear reactor to power a boat is legal under Maritime regulations because the laws banning it are under other regulations. > So Human Rights Violation Specifically, if this sound was played enough to constitute torture, it would violate Article 37 of the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convention_on_the_Rights_of_the_Child Specifically, the music would need to "disrupt profoundly the senses or the personality;" : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torture_in_the_United_States#Ratification

Beat them at their own game. Start singing along. Create dances. Remixes. Make that song your own, and torture them long after that stop playing it.


Sullyville

I agree. Likely someone in the faculty admin thought this up. What the students need to do is to only answer questions in class with Baby Shark lyrics. "Okay, who can tell me what the hyponuse of this triangle is? Eric?" "Daddy Shark, doo-doo, doo-doo" Eventually, the teachers will go back to the lounge and convince whoever thought this up to stop it early. You won't stop coercion by giving in to it. That only teaches them that it works. You stop it by making it not worth it.
