Some of these are valid to ban (the sex and manosphere ones) but others just seem like they're trying to ban slang.
Also why ban ligma? What if someone catches it and needs to talk about it.
Just like Joe :(
If it's an language/literature class, maybe it would make sense to ban slang
Ban using slang in writing makes sense, but controlling how students can speak is just ridiculous.
I agree. Thinking more about it, if you look at the board it shows hand written, a typo count. Which may indicate it is a typing class. Thereby they would be possibly teaching professional typing for a work environment.
So telling users not to talk about pop culture, use slang, emojis, and memes would make sense in that environment.
I personally prefer to use some, but knowing how not to and "knowing your audience" would depict when it is or is not appropriate. So teaching students to say type a professional email/cover letter/resume/response would make sense to ban such. 🤷 <Devils advocate I suppose. Sorry, been a rough week
how does it make sense to ban slang in language/literature class???
that's like banning research papers in physics class, wtf
