Those school bus menaces are nothing compared to hundreds of parents crashing a school with their massive SUVs at the same time.
Oh, and while we’re at it, can we please close down all the horrid public schools—and stop endlessly expanding and rebuilding them?
I always thought any smart high school grad, given a few pointers, ought to be able to turn around and teach all those subjects back to students behind them.
I’d issue full-time private tutors to the little darlings, street by street, with, I don’t know, 10 to 20 kids a tutor? Paying that would be so much less than the cost of our dumbed-down administrative school complexes.
Uphill both ways in the snow and barefoot too, right ?

Excellent post with excellent suggestions!

Probably true, but then I don’t have to go anywhere near any schools. Meanwhile those yellow menaces are fowling up traffic all over the County, and at taxpayers’ expense!

“fouling” NOT “fowling”! I’m getting sleepy!
And there's always 1 or 2 karen's that think they are the Line, Lane and Traffic Monitoring Stupidvisor's.
I've seen some that were downright Militant about it !!!
I however have a Solution for their problem attitudes. (Tap to unmute when link opens)
I also have a fix for the carton shortage problem. Get one of those Milk Dispenser machines that use the giant bags of milk and have the Kids use a cup. They can get it at the end of the line by the Cashier.
Yes! We had those at my college cafeteria!
Ah, jeez. Didn’t even see that my finger went with a ‘W’. How foul!
When I went to school we had to bend over and squeeze it fresh off the test!
(snicker, snicker!)
Hahahahaha!
Sounds like my grandparents!!!
How about parents feed their own damn kids.

That is the million dollar question.
America can’t even make milk cartons anymore. Sad.
I don’t think I ever had a thermos that didn’t get broken within a week. At least until about 1974, when I got a Stanley steel thermos, which I still have. It’s got a few dents and most of the paint’s gone, but it still works and I still use it, just not every day now.
Did it say “I think I can, I think I can”—or am I mixing Stanleys and metaphors?
You lost me there.
Sorry. “Stanley” is also a toy train.
There was a famous story about a plucky train back in your era that succeeded by chugging to itself, “I think I can, I think I can” and, well...
Don’t recall Stanley toy trains. Lionel, yes.
I remember The Little Engine That Could. Shel Silverstein wrote a parody of it that ended something like:
“And all of a sudden—crash! bash! smash!
He slid back and smashed into engine hash.
And the moral is:
When the going’s steep and the track is rough
Thinking you can just ain’t enough.”
Elementary School - let out at 11:45 a.m. , everyone walked home for lunch. Be back by 12:55 p.m. when bell rang. No lunch room at all.
