Well guys.... just when you think you've heard every stupid thing you can possibly hear, here comes this little gem....
Straight from Arendtsville Elementary school where my son attends.
When they have parties at the school parents are asked to donate different items for the parties so the school doesn't have to foot the bill.
For these parties they allow soft drinks (sodas)...... any soda EXCEPT root beer.
You see.... root beer has the word "beer" in it soapparently it sets a bad example for the kids. WTF!!!!!!! :/O
Funny thing is....... The principle is a SLY guy. When I met him I thought he was probably cool. Now I find out he's just another pinhead.
-
Yet another case of political correctness going way, way over the edge. :/O

Wow Mike, that's totally assnine....what the he** is this world coming to when they make stupid rules like that? I don't know, it makes ya want to just give up ! I guess the stupid politicans, administrators, teachers, etc have nothing better to do then sit around and think these dumb things up....no wonder kids act the way they do when they have leadership examples like these bung holes..... :Xo!
-
We are the ones at fault....for allowing it to continue. Dumbasses.
-
You should write a "Root Beer" company and let them know about this. See if they can do something to persuade the school to think differently.
-
Are you seriously considering letting your kids stay in a school like that? That's a symptom of a deeper problem, and the problem is IGNORANCE. If they fear the kids learning in their school will be unable to make the distinction you should think about schools that can teach, not PREACH.
And I thought loonies were limited to the Bible Belt South!

This is a great idea!!!!!.......... and I will make a move on this tomorrow.
Thanks Tyler!!

Hi Mike!
I just read your post. Heaven forbid if you pack BEER NUTS in your kid's lunch.......somebody could get sent home. What the heck ever happened to the 3 R's?
-
Words cannot express how completely absurd that is.
-
STUPID!
-
Thats about as stupid as my picture!
-
That I agree with.
-
HUSH! LOL....for i shake up a 2 liter bottle of root BEER and aim it towards ya.
It is ok if we say the word BEER in here isnt it Tyler? I just dont want to see an underage kid in here and see the word BEER. BEER in the form of a soda such as rootBEER shouldnt be a cause of concern. Now brewed hops and stuff of the like that make BEER i coudl understand..but its root BEER!
-
It's ok TIMMJ...because BEER is YUMMMMMMYYYYYYY!!! (If you're over 21 in the U.S.A.)
-
STUPID!
Stupid is as Stupid does....
Just ask Timmayyy ;)
-
I feel like i need a BEER right now
-
So I'm reading this with a BEER in my hand and BEER NUTS in the bowl beside me wondering if you could just rename the ROOT BEER to Sarsaparilla, would it then be acceptable? Does this mean that kids shouldn't eat at an A&W for fear that they may become ROOT BEER AHOLICS? Unfortunately we spend so much time and effort protecting ourselves from, well ourselves. Geez, maybe the word ROOT BEER should be outlawed? :*)) In the meantime, I'll sit here and drink my BEER!

The last 2 posts bring to mind a take on an old classic (Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-te-do) by Axel the Sot ( A renaissance faire performer.)
Do - The stuff that buys my beer
Re - The guy who pours my beer (Thanks, Ray!)
Mi - The guy who drinks my beer
Fa - A long way to the john
So - I'll have another beer
La - I'll have another beer
Te - No thanks, I'll have a beer
And that brings us back to do.

Well this is right along the lines of what I told my son. For the next party I'm going to get one of those large bottles of root beer and cover the label with my own label that says........... "Sarsaparilla - Approved by Schools Everywhere"
What a bunch of dumb asses.......
-
next thing you will know...they wont be able to take anything with vanilla in it....because of the alcohol content.....
not to mention...mouthwash or anything like that. I think I am gonna go make me a saraparilla float....

You know the IBC rootbeers that come in glass bottles that look like beer bottles? Well they also make creme soda and a cherry something rather. However, they all come in bottles that look like a beer bottle. You could donate bottles of that creme soda if you feel like being a rebel.
DO IT! DO IT!
Then make sure you tell us all about it afterwards :*))
-
Well you all...just checking in after the high school football game. Yes we won...so I am going out for a drink or ten

When I was young, my dad would take us all out for a root beer at the A&W drive-in each time my grandpa, the barber, gave us all our very frequent haircuts. Little did I know that they were really corrupting me, and now many years later, I love real beer. I may have to go into therapy now... how could they take advantage of me like that [sarcasm]. It's amazing that kids today can learn anything these days with such pinheads running our school systems. And now they want to expand into mandatory early childhood education. Yikes! g@@4

we used to be able to get root beer over here in McDonalds but not any more......i loved it with a 1/4 ponder with cheese...mmmmm
-
I have noticed that. Our McDonalds quit carrying Barq's rootbeer a while back. I could never get an answer as to why...now I know.

Barq's, originally from New Orleans, was sold to Coca Cola, so if your McDonalds doesn't sell Coke, it won't sell Barq's.

Maybe next time you should send in some Ginger ALE and see how that goes.
