That damned process

What's Mallard raving about today?

Teachers.

The worst cartoonist on the planet has little business criticizing anyone for professional failings.

Other than that, just go read yesterday's comments since Mallard couldn't be bothered to have a new thought on a new day.

Today's "comic" gives me an incredible urge to punch the talentless hack Tinsley right in the cock.

There's a meta-joke at work here. See, Tinshley's no longer able to draw a straight line, thanks to the shakes, so any single rectangle in the Mallardverse is so bizarre that finding the area is surprisingly difficult. You need a "process" to determine it in Ms. Strawman's class because the alcoholism of their cruel and witless deity has made equations irrelevant. For evidence, just look at the pathetic results every time Tinshley tries to draw a TV (shouldn't take long to find one).

What a joyless, sad world the Tinshley family drinks in.

Kip W said...

Translation: Tin can keep it up all week, and he will.

Reason: He's written himself into a corner because he doesn't know how to find the area of a rectangle on Google.

All of this was discussed yesterday, but if Tinsley can repeat comics, I can repeat comments, so:

Does Bruce Tinsley really think one needs a mathematics degree to teach math to elementary school students? It's been a while, but the most complicated thing I recall learning in 3rd grade was multiplication, which doesn't exactly require studies in multivariate calculus or number theory. Of course, maybe Tinsley's teachers used the nine times table as a jumping off point for a discussion of quasiperfect numbers. That might explain why he drinks so much today.

Tinsley: Sociopath said...

Tinsley will defend Herr "Doktor" Eva ScheiBengoering, fellow sixth grade dropout in three months, because she has expressed milder versions of his ideas:

"I don’t think [listening to your friend mock the race of your Black wife is] racist...a lot of blacks voted for Obama simply ’cause
he was half-black. Didn’t matter what he was gonna do in office, it
was a black thing. You gotta know that. That’s not a surprise. Not
everything that somebody says — we had friends over the other
day; we got about 35 people here — the guys who were gonna start
playing basketball. I was going to go out and play basketball. My
bodyguard and my dear friend is a black man. And I said, “White men
can’t jump; I want you on my team.” That was racist?

...Turn on HBO, listen to a black comic, and all you hear is nigger, nigger, nigger.
...
We’ve got a black man as president, and we have more complaining about racism than ever. I mean, I think that’s hilarious.
...
Don’t take things out of context. Don’t double N—NAACP me.
...
I really thought that once we had a black president, the attempt to demonize whites hating blacks would stop, but it seems to have grown, and I don’t get it. Yes, I do. It’s all about power. I do get it. It’s all about power and that’s sad because what should be in power is not power or righteousness to do good –that should be the greatest power.

Word Verification: Puron, what Bruce Tinsley, and Laura Schlessinger want every particle in the world to be.

Iron Dragon said...

I have to say say that what bothers me most about this is that he apparently thinks that the teachers are trying to actively sabotage the students.

You know, we've "enjoyed" some awful MF strips in the past few years, but somehow, this one seems to take things to a whole new low. It's just completely motiveless, spiteful hatred. What the hell kind of person thinks this has some sort of value? I'll tell you one thing: the most mediocre of teachers has nonetheless accomplished more of value in a single day--a single class period--than Tinsley ever has in his entire blighted "career."

Tinsley: Sociopath said...

Yeah, there is no creativity involved in math, except when finding new equations to solve old problems. No one, ever, applied math creatively, except Erastosthenes, Newton, Archimedes, Foucault, Galileo, Mendel, Einstein--

Frank Stone said...

As if today's "comic" wasn't enough evidence that Tinsley's a meanspirited sleazebag, see his latest twit -- er, tweet -- no, twit -- about "the media".

Ducky is Right said...

I would be embarrassed to accept money as payment for these strips.

Hey, tell us again how postal workers and teachers are lazy and bad at their jobs again, Mr. Ducks.

Eight Point Five said...

Tinshley is just sad because teachers are too dumb to understand that the universe was made by a sky wizard in a week and when you go into an airplane, you can see angels in the clouds.

Whaddya know, the protagonist is in a permanent Nazi salute.

exanonymous said...

What level of hatred for one's fellow human beings must one have to assume this level of stupidity is common enough to make a joke of it?

If public school teachers were this horrible, most people would not even be functionally literate except the small portion of the rich that could afford private schools.

But America isn't like that.
