Rules Of This Blog

Because the WWW can often be thought of as a "Wild West", I thought it'd be a good idea to set some ground rules about what is acceptable and what isn't. Violation of any of these rules is just as serious as any other school policy infraction.

1. BE RESPECTFUL. Don’t say anything to offend others. Any degrading, offensive, or insulting comments will result in you receiving zeros for your assignments and eventually being banned. Also, do not comment-spam other people.

2. NO ANONYMOUS COMMENTS. You must be logged in. Any posts where I’m grading you cannot be anonymous (obviously). Actually, you have to be a member of this blog to post, and I'm the only one who can invite.

3. STAY ON TOPIC. Stick to the discussion.

4. CLEAN UP YOUR WRITING. Even though this is a blog, it is a CLASS blog. While I don’t expect you to be formal the way you would in an essay, you should try to tidy up your spelling and grammar as much as possible. NO “TEXT SPEAK.”

5. NO EXCESSIVE GRAPHICS. Only post videos/photos where appropriate, and even then, use discretion.

What is normal?
  • Normal is relative. What may be normal to you, may be absolutely strange to me & what may seem normal to me, may seem weird or crazy to you. The way we perceive "normal" is highly affected by our society.. We are taught that normal means average, regular, typical, etc. But really, being normal is just the state of being perfectly content with your own being and not drowning into society's pool of degrading standards for being "normal."

What Is Normal?
Normal is the common triats of a specific person, like the way they act amongst friends or their characteristics. For anything to be normal, however, it must be done in the same way multiple times.

What is normal?
Really, Cummins? This is a really bogus question. Normal is in the eye of the beholder, isn't it? I mean, to one guy a lizard eating dinner at the table is pretty normal, and to the next guy lizards in general are absolutely bizarre. (I'm from the former party.)
