I actually just used those scooters today. I'm in 8th grade and we had open gym so me and my friends sat on them and pulled each other with hockey sticks. 😁
The scooter one goes hard when they can connect. I remember there was one scooter that didn’t have the parts that clip together and no one wanted it but some poor kid always got stuck with it and couldn’t go on the train. :(
I either didn't get in trouble, or got in such bad trouble that I had to leave class. Pretty much no in-between... I was actually on an IEP because of my emotional issues, and my punishments were usually reduced because I was already doing everything they could think of to improve, and I was usually a good kid... I actually hated breaking rules, but sometimes everything would be too much and I would go nuts. With the magic of hindsight, I now know my childhood issues were a combination of overstimulation (I'm on the spectrum) and a severe misunderstanding of a piece of advice that set me back emotionally until senior year!
I remember I was in 3rd grade “benched” during recess with “standards”. you know.. “I will remember to my homework” like 30 times in a piece of paper and a 5th grader came up to me and showed me the technique where you would do each word vertically 30 times to finish them way faster. It was mind blowing to me💀😭
We used to have an art teacher that if we misbehaved once we had to write “I will not (talk during class,touch other children,ect).” 100 times.They also repeated the lessons each year
I had a teacher who hated me. He made me do lines because i told another kid his shoe was untied, and apparently thats bullying. Same day a recess guard wrote me up for staring at a puddle that was out of bounds. I "looked" like i was going to go out of bounds. And two in one day means i had to have my parents called. Freaking elementary nonsense. But you know, having my lunch stolen every other day and getting my backpack straps cut periodically never constituted anything other than attention seeking.
Rainbow goldfish have been carried through my entire life since i was a baby. I will always have a box of them somewhere with me and without one it just doesn’t feel the same.
i will never forget the pain i felt on those metal slides. 😡😭 while i was going down i didnt know the slide was gonna be hot but i was wearing shorts and the slide was BURNING hot
I remember we used those scooters in 8th grade PE, which was like 2 years ago for me. I’m just gonna say that those things will absolutely crush your fingers.
I absolutely HATED having to write down the same sentence multiple times. One time, I had to write down a sentence around 100 times, and I wasn't allowed to use the "easy" method.
Most of the boredom section maintains a level of abstraction familiar to readers of Heidegger, but he does offer a few material examples, including the scene of waiting four hours for a train in an empty railway station. He details a number of strategies to drive off boredom that are familiar, including idly drawing in the sand or walking back and forth on the road in front of the station, all the while regularly checking his watch. Given his rather querulous relation to modern technology, it is perhaps not surprising that he sees boredom as the fundamental 20th century attunement. His railway example is telling, as would, I think his inclusion of a range of entertainment technologies that occupy the herd, serving as a temporary and probably unsatisfactory way to stave off boredom. (From that perspective, I suspect that such boredom remains foundational in this century, given the efflorescence of media forms whose primary purpose in to drive off boredom. In that sense, the current generation of smartphone users is perhaps the first in human history to have never actually experienced fundamental boredom.) Predictably, across the book he makes many fine-grained distinctions which are a little arcane for this essay, but his distinction between superficial and profound boredom can provide some insight. The first we try to eliminate rapidly through a range of distractions (detailed in his railway station example). But the other he suggests we should let approach us: “not to resist straightaway but to let resonate.” This latter notion can be read productively through the lens of walking. Rather than seeing profound boredom as something to be “driven away,” I want to claim that not only should it be sought out by preparing the ground for it, but it should also be embraced as a significant form of being. Heidegger sees attunement as a hybrid figure, emerging from-becoming unconcealed-personal or collective interaction with the material world. A book as thing cannot be boring because that can only emerge from human interaction with it. So profound boredom as fundamental attunement is necessarily a dense and complex set of interactions with people, history, ideas, and things. Trekking boredom is just such a hybrid attunement: I wake in a forest-not a forest, more a large copse-where I’ve wild camped near the English Ridgeway (“the oldest footpath in England”). Nothing boring about getting up early to avoid detection by a landowner or gamekeeper. Dressing and packing quickly, I soon gain the path and safety from the charge of trespass. I soon meet another early riser, an old man walking his dog who tells me his version of the many historical tales that layer over any time spent on this literally storied path. Then I’m off for a long day crossing the midpoint of the trail- an anticipated 20+ miles walk to a campground and a legal night’s sleep. The southern half of the Ridgeway is almost all up on a ridgetop, not usually the best place for a path, but on the rolling chalk downs of Wiltshire it is perfect. In the second half of my day, the path descends to the river and follows the Thames through small riverside villages almost to Wallingford (an extra mile off the trail to get there).The literature of walking as well as actual walking must ultimately contend with the fundamental boredom of the practice. A frequent element of everyday life, the actual experience of boredom seems to be something humans want to push off, to eliminate completely if possible (hence the very notion of entertainment), so it is puzzling that a segment of the population-trekkers-seem to put themselves willingly in boring situations. Looking to philosophy for some guidance, we can turn to Martin Heidegger‘s Fundamental Concepts of Metaphysics. It’s a strange book, as it seems to be two separate paths. The first is a long discussion of boredom as the fundamental attunement of the 20th century, and second half contains his famous but problematic assertion that the stone is worldless, the animal poor-in-world, while the human worlds. The second half of the book has long been a fundamental text for people working in animal studies and in 21st-century environmental studies in general, but first half has remained, at least for me, a puzzle. On returning to it to gain a perspective on the question of walking and boredom, I was struck that in the first chapters, he develops a fairly sophisticated form of affect theory avant la lettre. First he sets out his notion of attunement, noting that there can be both individual and collective forms. Individual’s have moods, but so do groups. We speak of a happy room or a pessimistic population. Staying consistent with his ongoing philosophical project of understanding Dasein as throwness into the world, he claims (and I am generalizing here) that we notice the exceptional moments- happiness, anger, basic well-being, etc.- but, as we are always already in an attunement (throwness in the world), the fundamental attunement(s) go unnoticed. He goes on to claim that there is no universal attunement. Instead he sees it as historical or epochal and that the fundamental attunement in the 20th century is boredom.A scene from Gus Van Sant’s film Gerry is a three and a half minute tracking shot of the profiles of the two main characters, both named Gerry, in tight focus as they trudge across a vast and empty desert. While the audience might marvel at the technical virtuosity, they also feel and partially experience the utter boredom of the walk. In filming the tale of two young men lost in the desert for several days, Van Sant stages the pure boredom of wandering in large, seemingly empty landscapes. Similar to Sergio Leone, that other desert auteur, he serves up huge, painterly spaces, and, at the same time, stretches time to a point where it feels as if it must break. The experience of the characters (and the audience) is both intense and empty, concentrated and vast. In a word, boring. Long-distance trekking is both physically and mentally challenging, and one of those challenges is boredom. Hikers face day after day, week after week, waking, packing up, and walking nine, ten or more hours sometimes in spectacular environments but more often in tedious sameness. Appalachian Trail hikers often disparagingly call the path “the green tunnel.” In a sense, boredom is the mental ground of walking.
I never had to write anything multiple times but I legit would’ve written the wrong crap on purpose and taken the consequences all the way to the point of death if anyone had tried to make me write THAT 😂
Ill never forget having ISS for 6 days and them hard fking chairs, legit fractured my tail bone cuz i could only get up once in the 8 hours. Then i took off school for 2 weeks to heal my ass bone , i couldnt even lay on my back n barely could walk. Pissed me off 🤣
