Captain Placid.
While you seem like an ace dad - I have to say this.
I have been raped. It is the most awful thing I have ever gone through and I would not wish it upon anybody. Not even the horrible cows who made me so consistantly miserable for nearly 11 years.
It is the most...violating..horrible..vile, wrong thing that can happen to anybody and it leaves the victim with scarring. For life. Mental. Physical.

I'm glad you got the bully expelled - I really am. But it does sadden (and frighten!) me a lot to see you take pleasure in the fact she was raped and then killed herself two years later.

and again
I don't think he took any pleasure from that, I think its just bad grammar. See my 2 comments above here.

I suggest we all sit back and have a cup of tea while we wait to see what Captain Placid says when he comes back (which I'm sure he will)

Even if it is bad grammar, it's still pretty fucking stupid

( WHARRGARBL, Fri 15 May 2009, 12:54, closed)

Not really
Do you understand how the use of bad grammr could make it look stupid?

if so then your comment itself is also "pretty fucking stupid".

It's not just the "Bad Grammar"
it's then launching into an ill informed rant at teachers and how they have such cushy jobs etc.

I think you're wrong about the bad grammar thing, the rest of the post is very carefully written, there is no reason to think he wasn't pleased that she was raped and then committed suicide.

The teachers excluded the girl in question
and she didn't just go to another random school, she went to a 'secure school'. I've been to a 'secure school' (to fix their computers). They are like prisons, with locked gates, special teachers, councilors etc.

If this girl was worthy of going to a school like that, the Captain should not have had to twist the teachers arms into doing this. Therefore, the teachers were crap. He was not saying all teachers are crap, only those he had to, ironically, bully into doing their jobs.

And just because the rest of his post is well written (and there are other typos there), doesn't mean mistakes aren't made.

I know you're a regular troll
but here
"Teachers are all bullies (except Mr A who gave me a love of maths and Engineering, Mr T who was ex military and gave REAL guidelines on behaviour, and Miss B who gave me my love of language.) and expect respect from whoever they meet, just because they are a teacher."

So he is saying all teachers are crap. And the fact is that they aren't, they do a difficult job and are always between a rock and a hard place. Some teachers are crap, some are lazy, some don't try, but the majority are hamstrung by crap guidelines and legislation and the fact that no-one wants to pay for education, yet they expect everything to be perfect.

Oy. I'm no troll.
And I'm sorry if I've given that impression. Quite like to know how. I'm going to assume you're confusing me with someone else.

Hmm, think I misread a word there, or added one in. I agree - teachers do have a hard job, so I'd like to see that sweeping generalisation justified as well.

Sounds like he's had a hard time with most of the teachers he's come across, which is a shame. I've met a lot who are crap in all kinds of ways, and a few who were really great.

I am going to go to say, with no hint of trolling, that the great teachers don't take or give any crap and are always in control. Tight regulations or not, there are those who are able to work within those regulations, yet remain in authority and gain everyone's respect.

I re-read things before I post them. Sometimes after, too.
Especially when talking about important and controversial topics.


So either he jizzed this onto the internet without a second thought and no re-reading (fairly stupid) or he thinks the rape and suicide of children is good (fucking stupid).

Either way, there's one word that remains the same. Is he your boyfriend or something?

HAHA!!
Nope, no idea who he is and I don't really care. i just think he's being vilified for what I think (and hope) was a mistake.
( SpikeyPickle wishes he was mabazaritchie, Fri 15 May 2009, 13:37, closed)

Yep.
I also believe in proofreading my posts to an extent. I'd like to think that if I posted the answer, I would've read it through first and gone "Hmm, that bit sounds slightly iffy" and edited it so it didn't appear that I was getting pleasure from the rape and suicide of a young girl.

Whether it's bad grammar or genuine malevolance, it's still wholly indefensible.

^^ This (spikeypickle)
Innocent until proven guilty?
Perhaps we should let the Captain explain himself.
If it turns out we all took it the way he meant it, by all means beat the fucker into the ground. If not, I think a cup of tea is a pretty good idea.

Thank you!

( SpikeyPickle wishes he was mabazaritchie, Fri 15 May 2009, 13:59, closed)

No problem

(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Fri 15 May 2009, 14:24, closed)

I love you
You can help me rule the world.
( SpikeyPickle wishes he was mabazaritchie, Fri 15 May 2009, 14:46, closed)

Yay!
Can I have my own castle? With turrets?
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Fri 15 May 2009, 14:54, closed)

Of course!
I'm having mine in Wales - somewhere around Anglesey.

Where do you want yours?
( SpikeyPickle wishes he was mabazaritchie, Fri 15 May 2009, 15:09, closed)

Hmm
Wales is a good place for a Castle, but for mine?

In a forest in Finland would be lovely thank you.
