Crafting Rants: Round 1 by Mae Hill https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf While studying political and theatrical rhetoric, students will craft a rant of their own. en-us 2018-01-31 16:20:10 UTC 2018-02-07 17:21:43 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Alarmclock.png Anne 2022723ej https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226652396 Sir, we live in a world with people of different colors, and we as people should protect one another no matter the color of our skin. This is our greatest responsibility, greater than you can imagine. You claim peace among all races, yet at every stop along the road you use your power to destroy what little peace we have created. The many hypocrisies you speak are understandable because as a wealthy white man you will never be put in a situation where you are shot because of cruel racial profiling. Jordan Edwards death, the tragic and compelling story of an African American boy shot and killed for underage drinking at a party. You stood and brushed it off as “awful and a mistake”, giving excuse after excuse for why your men shot him. Your denial was preposterous claiming that your men did what they could to survive. You cannot handle the truth because of the guilt. You use words like “Peace and acceptance” but you trample over them with your intolerable and heartless decisions. As many have said before “actions speak louder than words”. I suggest you begin practicing what you preach before thousands more innocent people lose their lives for you, and your racist men.]]> 2018-01-31 16:27:37 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226652396 Lee https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226652666 This planet was made a certain way, it came this way to provide life, to provide all the materials we need. There isn’t always going to be materials for us and when they go away there will be rampage in the street everything is going to be agile everywhere. Are you going to be able to do something about it? There will be that day that all our resources will be coming to a close, we are all going to be in shock and not know what to do. There will be a time when someone tries to fix it but as soon as you think it’s all fixed it will be the end just like that. Then someday someone will come with an idea and we use it and it starts working but as soon as we think it was all fixed and it all settles, and people become happy something will go wrong extremely wrong. We will not always be able to fix things. There will always be a flaw in the system and when it happens your gonna hope it’s not bad and we all be ready for it. ]]> 2018-01-31 16:28:02 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226652666 Leo https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226652693 Listen up, people who rant about things are so very very stupid. Why do people rant about things? Why would anyone rant about anything? Everyone rants and there just overzealous complainers. Everyone complains and complains but does nothing about what they are complaining about. I would never do such a thing because I am not one of those people who just go on and on about one thing that makes them mad. But you on the other hand always complaining and ranting. You say things like, “angry, needs to change, and different” You say all of these things but would never do anything about all of those things. People who go on rants are just ungrateful about what they have and want more no matter who it affects. If you want to rant about something, at least make a suggestion to change it.]]> 2018-01-31 16:28:05 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226652693 Alaya 2022450rt https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226653138 I think students shouldn't be allowed to use phones in school. Who’s going to agree? Nobody? Well then. Whomever thinks that is not so smart, which makes me the intelligent one. I know more than you, but you'll never understand. You just think its "stupid," that i’m ranting about "Student's shouldn't be allowed to use phones in school." But at the end of my fulminate, you should definitely agree with me, because nobody will listen to you. Otherwise, have hatred upon you the rest of your life. ]]> 2018-01-31 16:28:38 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226653138 https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226653161 I’ve never understood why students find it so hard to respect teachers. Teachers go to school, they learn how to teach you the stuff that you need to know in order to get to the goal that you would like to meet. Everyday, teachers come to school, plan lessons everyday and try to meet everyone's needs,  but yet after all that work, they don’t get respect from most students. Don’t get me wrong, i’ve been upset with teachers before, i’ve been annoyed with them, i’ve hated them a few times, but not once have I disrespected a teacher in the way my classmates do. Everyday in choir, people would tell my teacher straight to his face, that he isn’t supposed to be teaching here. Every day in science class, the same boy would fall asleep in his class. My teachers didn’t go to school to spend their days teaching students that fall asleep, that tell him to leave the school. In the first semester of 8th grade, I thought that people were disrespectful, but then over a weekend I went to a party. At this party we were playing truth or dare, and it was so hard to get everyone’s attention, and when everyone was listening, they started talking 30 seconds later. That’s when I started to put into place how absolutely terrible students could be to teachers. When I ask people why their disrespectful, they say “oh please it’s funny”, or “I don’t want to be here so why should I be nice about it”. Do you think teachers want to be here when you're acting like this? Do you realize that there is a difference between being funny, and being disrespectful? Most of the students here at WMS don’t know the difference, and if they did, I think Whitehall would be a lot better of a place.]]> 2018-01-31 16:28:42 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226653161 Stanley 2022962bv https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226653815 (I wrote mine in story along the lines of Anthem) We live in a world of knowledge and that knowledge protects us. Apparently you have none of the sort. We all have great responsibilities. You bring us this monstrosity and tell us we should retort to your ways? What about what we have taught you? That the way we live is for everyone. No one is favored here. We all serve each other and each other serves all. This protects us from anything new or dangerous. We do not use words such as “I, me, or want”. If we use these words it cripples our way of life. We provide you with everything you need and you still experiment and disobey law. It would be much appreciated if you would not continue these unacceptable actions. However you are going to be severely punished for this. I suggest you give yourself in without a fuss. ]]> 2018-01-31 16:29:47 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226653815 https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226654750 Fortnite will always be the best game. It is very well made with no errors in their servers. People always hate on it, and I ask them “How long have you tried to play it?” Other games like Call of Duty may stand a chance of going against it, but no one can say it is better. It has a unique style of how to play, it is a shooter game, but there is another factor called building! Building is a key point in this game. In any other shooter you can only find cover and shoot, but now you can build your own cover. No other game has the same techniques you can use in Fortnite. If you say it isn’t great and not fun, it’s probably because you’ve haven’t played it or played it little at all. If you disagree, you may state your points, but nothing will ever compete with Fortnite Battle Royale. ]]> 2018-01-31 16:31:16 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226654750 marie 2022055al https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226655350        I don't think you understand how much we work daily.We should be able to have more freedom during school we spend more than half of our day sitting and following rules on rules on rules, we can't do this and we can't do that, i feel the we should deserve time where we can do what we want to, of course not literally there should be some restriction such as not messing with the teachers things without permission. Moreover, you try learning and learning and learning for eight hours a day for five days a week, it's hard to keep up and sometimes we just need a break.. We should have sometime to do that during the final part of the day so our brains ca have a break because other than lunch and short two minute brain breaks we are constantly thinking and learning about new things and we never get breaks, yeah of course we have passing time and we have those two minute breaks but i don't think that is enough. In the state we live in we spend more time in school then we do at home school gets exhausting and i don't think the teachers realise we have other classes with more homework. Right now even our electives have tons of homework some of my friends have trouble keeping up with other classes just from their homework in choir, IN CHOIR. (don't mean this, well partially but I didn't know what to write about)]]> 2018-01-31 16:32:14 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226655350 Grace 2022594mb https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226657548  My attendance and academic excellence determines your pay. So is not giving us breaks truly helping that? No. I am a student who is in desperate need of more school breaks to help refresh my brain. School breaks can cause happiness, and happiness causes energy, which can be devoted to learning, which overall is what is funding the school. So my academic excellence and ability to attend school can have a large effect on how your life is going. In the event that every kid in this schools comes to class lacking enthusiasm and happiness, imajine the result on tests scores for that day. In comparison of a teacher to a student, a teacher is getting paid, a student is only getting paid in the long run. More school breaks may be temporarily  taking away your money, but it is making the development of future generations more driven. You say it is so we have more time to better our education, but in the long run it is making us less and less driven developing you a bigger issue. Our brains as students are limited and oftentimes need rest, plus in order for us to have enthusiasm and be engaged we need to be happy. I recommend you either find a way to make school more enjoyable or bring us more breaks, because eventually it will start to affect you. ]]> 2018-01-31 16:36:05 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226657548 Fae https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226659336 You have convinced yourself that I am worth less than you. Don’t you think that I do enough? I babysit all the time. I do the dishes everyday, sometimes more than once a day. You guys are working all the time and I am home watching the boys and doing the dishes! If you don’t have time to watch your own kids then you should not have had them. My well being saved you hundreds of dollars in babysitting and housekeeping. Maybe sometime you could clean something, or you could watch your own kids do something. I would rather you just let me be and you do all the work. I would like to work maybe twice a week and have the rest of the week off to do other teenage stuff. Would that be so hard?!

Why not? Many people live here. Also a lot of people like it. Not many people in Muskegon can eat it that much because the closest one to Muskegon is in Grand Rapids. I feel like we deserve to have Chick-fil-a in Muskegon. Chick-fil-a is a really good restaurant. We want it to be closer. We need it to be closer. Maybe putting it closer would cost a lot of money, but it would make everyone happy in the long run. ]]> 2018-01-31 16:40:32 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226660600 2022154cm https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226662832 Unfortunately, we are living in world with school, and with school come homework. I am unable to explain to your inadequate mind the mass amount of paper we are handed. The responsibility to maintain a positive grade and attendance is beyond your mental and physical capabilities. However, for us to be prepared for our ever so near future in this world, work is required and so is learning. If this generation doesn’t manage to learn anything, what will we get done. If the world falls to illiteracy, we will collapse into failure. The amount of stress required to keep up is unnoticed and not cared for. We are demanded from and expected to perform our tasks flawlessly. To add to it, we are reprimanded for some of the most minuscule things, even though they bother none. We are held to a strict conduct, to listen and respect is reasonable, but to be talked down and showed no respect in return is ridiculous. Teachers, you are here to teach us, not belittle us, not to talk down to us like we know nothing. You are here to help us, not destroy us.]]> 2018-01-31 16:43:59 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226662832 My Rant- That 1 anon dude https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226663068 Ranting Noises carried on by more RANTING NOISES lol......u old goofs be judgen me -_- xD]]> 2018-01-31 16:44:21 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226663068 Marie https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226664772 Harry Potter and Twilight. If you had the choice, which series would you chose? The Harry Potter book series is clearly more superior than the Twilight book series because of its intriguing story. I for one, find it much more appealing to be reading a tale full of adventure and magic, rather than your sappy, run-of-mile love story. Harry Potter’s popularity is in addition, higher than that of Twilight’s because of its loyal and dedicated fanbase that has stuck with the story from its beginning, to its end, and even now. Meanwhile, Twilight’s fans, while also loyal and decided, burned away after the last movie came out. So, for those who refuse to read the Harry Potter series because of its “lackluster” story, it is definite that they are missing out.]]> 2018-01-31 16:46:46 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226664772 Group work rant- Larissa 2022059ln https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226665478 Group work, ironically, doesn't work. There are five types of people in these groups and only one ends up doing the work. The first kind of person is, the one who never does anything to help the progress of the project. The second person never agrees to anything anyone says and is just a general pain to have around. The third person is the one that promises to help do the work, but doesn't do it. The fourth one writes a paragraph and calls it good. And the last one does all the work and gets marked down for the poor work of their peers. Not only that, but they risk getting yelled at by the group for making their grade low. If working in groups were completely optional then maybe the hard workers could get better grades on their own then getting lowered by some lazy bums wasting their days. We rely on each other too musc in our school life, but when we hit the real world, we are on our own, making a living for ourselves, alone. Why, if school is supposed to train us for the real world, why are we made to help those who don't deserve it?]]> 2018-01-31 16:47:44 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226665478 Joy https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226665642 We live in a world full of disaster.

Who is going to make sure that happens? You? My friend? You have everything that they want. You yell at them, but you do nothing about it. You have everything that you want. You have the luxury of hiding behind that big house of yours. Getting rid of the people that don’t have nearly as much money as you, would be a good idea to you. And getting rid of people like me and not knowing people like me sounds like a good idea to you. But you don’t want to know what is going to happen because you can't handle that information. You use these words like “pour” and “bum”. You use these words to explain us and make fun of us. I have no time to deal with a person like you or show you what we are actually capable of. I would rather you just not even look at us and think that we are not there. Otherwise I suggest for you to continue on your way.

Jimmy Johns is one of my most favorite place to eat. The bread is soooo good and even though I get the same thing every time I go there, it still makes my mouth water. After all this is just my opinion so I can say whatever I want. I know that people would probably disagree and would rather have something else, for me this is what I want. The reason that I would want Jimmy Johns is because it is sooo convenient and the nearest one is out in muskegon on apple avenue. I mean they have to have enough money to build another store I would think. Maybe they just have not thought about whitehall. I was introduced to Jimmy Johns by my aunt, who lives near GR. I think that she had my mom try it and then my mom had my family try it. We used to get subway, but then we stopped after one time of having soggy/floppy bread. At first i got the #4, Turkey Tom. I enjoyed eating it for a while then, one day I tried the #5, the Vito. That’s when I realized that I loved Jimmy Johns. The bread was, in my opinion, the best. I tell my parents all the time about how I could eat Jimmy Johns every day. One time I did have two sandwiches and they were sooo good. And I also love their salt and vinegar chips. They are a little strong but they are sooo good. ]]> 2018-01-31 18:43:16 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226739149 Rant-Tom https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226740208 2018-01-31 18:45:10 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226740208 Joseph & David on Xbox One and PS4 2022563ac https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226741494 Punk, if you really think that PS4 is better than Xbox One, then listen here. I do declare that Xbox One is far superior to PS4. I can't believe such a tragedy like someone saying PS4 is better than Xbox One could happen in this great country. Seriously, who actually likes PS4? To say that Fortnite on PS4 is better than on Xbox One is equal to a mighty sin. Fortnite is easier on PS4, and that means that Xbox One Fortnite players are better than PS4 players. Xbox One is a million times better than PS4. To understand this you need someone who has both and Xbox One and a PS4. Everyone with both agreed that Xbox One is better. All of the facts point in one direction; Xbox One is clearly better than PS4. Xbox One stands for honesty, justice, and all that is right. Also, Fortnite on Xbox One is much more difficult than on PS4. The Xbox One is built in with 4K HD Ultra blu-ray, this means the graphics on Xbox One are far better than on PS4 unless you were to pay extra money for the games to have 4K HD Ultra blu-ray. To compare an Xbox One controller to a PS4 controller is like comparing the IPhone X to a Nokia 1. Xbox One is owned by Microsoft, one of the biggest companies in the world. PS4 is made by Sony. Nobody cares about Sony. Seriously, who likes Sony? All of you PS4 players are ungrateful for Xbox One and you should recognize it for its greatness. The PS4 controller is weird and clunky and nobody likes it. Plus, Xbox One is white which makes the Xbox One pop out more. Navigating a PS4 is like trying to go across the Atlantic on a Llama, while the Xbox One is very simplistic, making it more like driving to Starbucks in a Lambo. That is why Xbox One is better than PS4. If you are considering getting a PS4, you should consider if your life is worth living first.

Why? They were all overplayed until even the speakers that are playing the music hate it. It’s the case of “would you want to see/hear/do your favorite thing over and over again for the rest of your life?”. No, I am not really making it more extreme than it really is, as all the previously mentioned songs I rarely heard less than 4 times an hour on any given day (when they were popular). People find school boring because most of every year has school. When we first went to school, though, it was one of the best things that happened to us. You may argue that I play video games all the time, but there is more than enough variety of them to not get bored. And, believe it or not, I sometimes get bored of them in extended sessions. But if you have listened to a song so much that you practically can name every note, along with if it is sharp or flat or what octave it is, that is definitely a sign that it has been played way too much to sound good anymore. So just stop the pain, play something new for once.

Our school these days are just like and Anarchy, and I don’t like how it’s placed at all. You as a reader probably has fallen victim to the chaos that we the students have made of school. We got these big bad “leaders” who think they can just control us and treat us how ever they want while the rest are just there followers or the prey. If we keep up how the school is now then it is sure to be doomed one day. You are your own self and no one can tell you otherwise,you define you no friend or classmate can tell you otherwise.

When nothing is done those are the people that get nothing done and distract other people like this student who has a teacher telling to shut up every freaking class. You go to school for 7 to 8 hrs a day I know listening to teachers is a bit demeaning and boring but they do it because they like kids (I think)or they want money.  I don’t think that teachers get paid enough to deal with disrespectful students some of which who think they are entitled to anything they want.   Some students leave their homework or don’t do it at all then they get lectured by teachers because they don’t do their homework then their parents get involved and teachers will tell the parents the same things they told the students (they don’t do their work/pay attention in class).]]> 2018-01-31 19:03:36 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226751958 Donald Trump 2022399jh https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226752023 Child if you like Donald Trump, I don’t know what your thinking.

When will I get the phone I finally want? Having a phone is a privilege and you use it in are everyday lives. How can I use my old phone if it glitches all the time? I know you might not have the money. We can ask the family if they can start saving up. All that teenagers like me talk about is having a well updated phone. I think that we have all gone through a lot this year and I think we need the gift ourselves with new Iphones. I know you don’t want to read about how we need a new phone, because we tell you everyday we need one. Every 2 years we get a new phone and this year is 2 years is it that time of year where we get one? Because if it is can we get one sooner, and I know Alyssa is in on this too. We use them for so much. I know you don’t have time to sit around hearing about this but I think it is about to you start, because we are too excited to let this one go. I would rather get a new phone then keep asking for one and besides if you get me a new updated phone I will not have to ask for one fore a very very long time. Maybe we can make a deal. Can this be the last phone you buy me but the phone has to be a Iphone 7 plus! Can you live with that?]]> 2018-01-31 19:04:52 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226752799 you suck rant https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226753171 People, I think that it is very mean when you say that someone sucks at something even as a joke if it is that person's dreams then it will crush them people at this school put each other down and the person that didnt even know what the did and know that person's dreams are rounded just from something you thought was funny to say so if someone said that you suck at this and would that hurt you in any way and I know what your going to say No but in reality it affects you your just too afraid to admit. It has affected me before people used to say i suck at what i do but it's happened to me so many times i can cope with it and from the help of my coaches saying that dont suck and saying im a leader for the team i don't listen to them anymore but there are some people that don't get that and because all they hear that there bad there going to do bad on whatever the topic is. I can guarantee you have been told you suck at something and it affected how you did the topic. So instead of telling people they suck ask them how they are going to get better]]> 2018-01-31 19:05:28 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226753171 Bo Bo maehill https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226753199 It's stupid that people get judged at first glance, even though the human brain does it automatically, it doesn't mean we have to listen. Judging somebody like that is really saying someone is bad at something even if you have never seen them do it. I think everybody has the right to make a conscientious decision about somebody after really getting to know them. I've met some very good people who didn't look the part on the outside.]]> 2018-01-31 19:05:31 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226753199 Julie 2022743jm https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226753829 Hard work pays off within time and only you can make a difference in this world. Make it and let everyone see it? Work hard take it so you enjoy it? Because only you are here to present what your future brings. Want it earn it. Educate yourself to make it happen. Learn things to make it possible, exciting and excellent. Go through the education, work hard and make it to the top of what you want. All of us, the people of the world all think and wonder at some point about something. If they want it badly enough they will work hard to earn it. If you are a educated and a well teached person put it to use. If you think you are at the bottom work harder and learn on the way. Hard work pays off don’t ever think you can’t do something for some odd reason. Think, what it’s going to provide for you in the future. Because again, you make your own future. So work hard and earn it.]]> 2018-01-31 19:06:27 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226753829 Bo Bo Jr https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226756628 Kids, people in this school talk way too much stuff. Do you know someone who talks a lot of stuff? Everyone has a friend in this school who talks a lot of stuff. You get mad if someone talks to you but you talk stuff about them all the time. You wine about being suspended that saves others time and hassle. You know that you don’t mean much in the classroom but you think we care about your suspension. You use words like “try, working, and care” but you don’t try or work or care about anyone but yourself. You say everyone likes you but no one pays attention or cares about what you do in class. Everyone is ungrateful of each other and doesn’t care about anyone. It would be nice if you could pay attention or just not talk about others. Or, I would suggest you get made fun of all day.

For example some people will make me mad if they have a bad attitude. And then it gets weird to talk to the them. I experience this with some of my friends. Like if i don’t say hi to them then they will flip out and blame it on me. I don't have a lot of time in the morning either depending on when they get there or if i do. And then i get mad when people ask for food (especially when I'm hungry) or worse just take it. I eventually have to get along with the friend because its when you are so close that you just have to make up with them. I just don’t like when people say that because they had it first that its theirs. Whenever i say that to one of my friends she says that “we” both got it when it was actually me. ]]> 2018-01-31 19:12:16 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226757701 Fortnite is better then PUBG 2022616cg https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226758085 PUBG, also known as "Player Unknown Battle Grounds" is not as good as Fortnite and hear are a few reasons why. people that hate on Fortnite like to say that "it looks like a cartoon looking game, but personally I do not really care what the game looks like as long as i am having fun. And apparently a lot of other people do to, Fortnite has over 20 million active players wile PUBG is at just above 3 million active players. People that like PUBG more also say that PUBG is better because PUBG was made before Fortnite and Fortnite copied PUBG. Well according to the stats even though PUBG was made first seems like people dont want to play the old stuff any more and play the newer and better games like Fortnite. Also to mention Fortnite did not copy PUBG , Epicgames made fortnite of the style on how PUBG was played, having the games being 100 people per lobby fighting tell there is just one person left. I think that they are just jealous that Fortnite is better then PUBG but they are just to afraid to admit it. Because people that are fans of Call Of Duty do not say the Battlefield copied Call Of Duty. EpicGames is the company that made Fortnite if you did not know, but they are still going strong bringing updates to Fortnite every week, like this week they are bringing in a brand new weapon, The Mini Gun. And I can not wait till it comes out because I want to find it and use it right away, Unlike how there has not been an update ever week on PUBG so people get less interested in the game. And that is why I like Fortnite because you are always looking for something new to each week. And the last thing I have to say about Fortnite being better then PUBG is that EpicGames decided to use alot better graphic engine, they used unreal engine 3 which is one of the best graphic engines out there right now while who knows what PUBG used. But whatever they did use it was not that good because the character in PUBG runs in a weird way while in Fortnite the charcters run in a real and good way and that is why Fortnite is Better then PUBG -OOF -Charlie Glamzi -OOF]]> 2018-01-31 19:12:56 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226758085 https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226762158 ok listen up who cares about fortnite or ps4 or xbox one ]]> 2018-01-31 19:18:46 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226762158 ann 2022381kc https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226762611 Kid, what is respect? Everyone around us has something different about each other whether it's color, sexuality, or their smile, it could be the way they talk. Who’s gonna show them what's the right thing to do? You? You most likely have judged someone, once or twice in your life. You may not know what people say or do. You think judging gives you power. They say to have “Loyalty, Bravery, Respect” that makes it better. You can't always rely on those words to help you. I suggest you to change your mindset if you are the bully in certain situations. I also suggest you to stick up for yourself.  ]]> 2018-01-31 19:19:27 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226762611 Ellen https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226763382 Listen up… we live in a world today where people are on their phones 24/7. They do everything on it, and not just kids. I think almost everyone is guilty of it, even adults, even me. The other night I was out at dinner with my family. There was this other family sitting at the booth across from us all on their phones. Every single one. My family has a personal rule where phones aren’t allowed at the dinner table no matter where we are. I think this is a rule that every family should have because it gives you a chance to talk to your family about you day, how school/work went, and just what’s going one. This morning in Mr. Boyds advisory we watched a Ted Talk about how when you are lying on your deathbed you aren’t going to say “I wish I spent more time on my phone”, you are going to say “I wish I had spent more time with my family and friends.” I am a person who typically loves to spend time on their phone, but this week I asked myself, for what? To talk to my friends who I see everyday at school rather than spending time with family? Last year in seventh grade my parents took my phone away from me for a month. I thought it was going to be miserable, but it was actually one of the best months ever for me because I got to spend more time with my family, and I even got to know them better and make memories that I still look back on today. This is why I think it is foolish to spend your whole life focusing on something that you will regret in the long run. Take it or leave it,, but I guarantee if you use this, you will live a happier lifestyle. ]]> 2018-01-31 19:20:46 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226763382 https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226763885 Listen up. Can you Imagine, helpless animals waiting to be released from the appalling conditions which they have no choice to live in, only to be brutally tortured in the end? Imagine the fear these animals face daily, dreaming of a day where they don’t fear every person that they see, and every sound that they hear. Can you imagine? And little do you know, while you are applying your mascara, or pouring your dog's food, animals are being harassed and killed by the dozen. The things that go on in these laboratories are tucked under the blanket which we all are happy and comfortable in. I highly suggest that before you buy, do some research. These tests include things that I cannot even speak up because of the explicitly. You might be thinking, companies only torture dirty rats. Well, I’m very sorry to tell you that some of the most tested on animals include monkeys, bunnies, and even dogs. This is hidden from society, but the brutality that could be happening in innocent buildings you drive by is absolutely horrendous. Please, research before you buy. ]]> 2018-01-31 19:21:39 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226763885 You think you can Judge me https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226765383 You think you can judge me?  After I spend all of my money on clothes that I don't like, and squeeze into jeans that are too small and itch. After I paint my face so you cant see my nightmare of a face? Or when I try to fit in so hard that my forehead has the words “LIKE ME” in bold red. Or how about when you bully him and you push her down in the hallway then say “what im just kidding around?!” after I stare you down. Yet later I laugh with you and smile so I can fit in.  Or later after school I might argue with my mom and dad maybe make my little sister cry or hide my brothers project that he worked so hard on he was in tears at night. Why? to make you laugh, to feel like i'm cool… But what do you do? You say “that's not cool” Oh. it's not cool? But didn't you tell me a story last week about how you changed her test score so she would fail? Even though she studied as hard as she could? Or how about when you called that girls mom pretending to be a abortion place? Even though she never had her first kiss? But even though YOU did that, YOU judge me? You criticize me. You call me names like loser, freak, gross, unbelievable and worst of all your friend. You ask me how I live with my family because they're so “lame”. So because you hate them I do to. Because you hate my teachers I do to and I also lose respect for them. And Worst of all because you judge me, criticize me, because you hate me I judge me, I criticize me and worst of all I hate me. Because I hate me I steal money from my moms purse I buy jeans that have holes I buy shirts that don't cover me I buy makeup to paint my face I pierce my ears, nose, belly button I cut my hair and dye it all so you'll like me… But all you do is judge me...]]> 2018-01-31 19:24:10 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226765383 The Real World https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226766862 I don’t know why some kids think they are better than others just because they may be more popular or play sports they are better this is mostly the reason I am so quiet is because I don’t feel like getting caught up in all the drama of becoming this popular kid who thinks they are something they are not and some of the fellow students I go to school with I think need a hand to come out and slap them in the face and tell them ¨Welcome to the real world.¨ Because I personally don’t think many of them would make it in society when they grow up because in school all these kids think they are all special and should get special treatment but when they get a job they are most likely going to get slapped when they talk to their co- workers the way they talk to when they were in school. So in conclusion, I think my other schoolmates should focus more on schoolwork and not on being the most popular or cool.]]> 2018-01-31 19:26:30 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226766862 Why people should stop bashing Fortnite https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226878690 I believe that if boys find pride in their fortnite victories, they should brag about it. I believe that if this many people think it is a genuinely good game, it may actually be good. And honestly, you cannot complain about it until you actually give the game a try. So boys, keep on talking about it. ]]> 2018-02-01 02:45:41 UTC https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226878690 Justin Bieber https://padlet.com/maehill/ctkruc3tydpf/wish/226879470 Why does everyone judge Justin Bieber based on things he did in his past? Many people, when they hear the name "Justin Bieber" they automatically are in disgust. Many people argue that he hates his fans, is selfish, and is only in it for the money based on what the media showcases. He gets in fights, threatens fans, spits on them, bosses everyone around, etc. Half of this information is extremely dramatic. But can you imagine being surrounded by thousands of eyes everyday? Justin is never really able to walk down the street without being crowded by dozens of people, photographing and documenting his every move. Can you imagine that? At some point this can be so much pressure for a young kid who has always been in the spotlight. Everyone makes mistakes, and everyone has moments where they lash out. Little do you know, since Justin's police trouble years ago, he has changed drastically as a person. He has now apologized for all of his mistakes and has been more connected with fans, friends, and family more than ever. Justin even stated that in that time of his life he felt as if he had no purpose (inspiration for the album name.) I bet you don't know the dozens of charities Justin has donated and helped the past few years. Well, the list includes charities such as ALS Association, Alzheimer Association, Children's Miracle Network, City of Hope, It Gets Better Project, Food Bank For New York City, Red Cross, PETA, and many more. Recently, Justin has donated money to hurricane Irma victims. Before you judge someone based on what you know, make sure you actually know what you are talking about.

Why not? Many people live here. Also a lot of people like it. Not many people in Muskegon can eat it that much because the closest one to Muskegon is in Grand Rapids. I feel like we deserve to have Chick-fil-a in Muskegon. Chick-fil-a is a really good restaurant. We want it to be closer. We need it to be closer.
