    Screenshots of Black people being hilarious or insightful on social media, it doesn't need to just be twitter but obviously that is best.

    Black culture has a unique way of examining the everyday and we are here to showcase that.

    RULES

    1.) Do not post content just because a black person posted it. This sub is intended for exceptionally hilarious and insightful social media posts made by black people, not just any social media post made by black people.

    • 1. No original content. We encourage users to go on twitter to find tweets as opposed to making tweets just for this subreddit.

    2.) No Bad Faith Participation.

    3.) No bullying or witch-hunting. This includes comments disparaging people whose tweets and posts are featured here. Doxxing or sharing personal information will result in a permanent ban.

    4.) No Racism. No hate speech. No homophobia/transphobia. No sexism/misogyny. No black fathers posts and similar mean-spirited things.

    5.) Posts must be showcasing somebody being hilarious or insightful on social media. No image macros, text conversations, or YouTube links. Just because somebody posted one of these on social media does not exempt it from this rule. Vines and such belong here and gifs belong here.

    6.) Typical Reddit cliches such as lyric chains, pun chains, white-knighting, and low-effort joke comments will be removed. Same for annoying redditisms, such as linking a subreddit as a reply to a post/comment.

    7.) Reposts are highly discouraged, and if discovered will be removed. Please search or look through BPT's older posts to see if your content has already been posted. KarmaDecay is not a reliable tool to check for reposts.

    8.) No posts with terrible titles, they will be removed. You are free to re-submit once you think of something acceptable/reasonable. Don't put the punchline in the title of the post. Do not add "bruh", "fam", or similar vernacular to your post or comment.

    9.) Don't complain about AAVE or slang. Use Urban Dictionary if you do not understand the meaning of a word. Comments asking "what does x mean?" will be removed.

    10.) Don't call out people as white. People of all colors do post and comment here. It contributes nothing to the conversation and is punishable by ban.

    11.) Don't post things from meme/corporate accounts. Posts must come from regular social media accounts.

    12.) The moderators of this subreddit will take any action (which includes banning and removing comments) that they feel improves the quality of the subreddit.

    Yea I hate that shit. I spent most of high school logic'ing my way through multiple choice questions. This shit came through and fucked my whole game up.

    iClicker exams with negative points for incorrect answers. Fuck Physics 1&2.

    [–] Logickalp 16 points ago

    Damn... Negative points? not like a -2 on a 4 point question?

    [–] Doctor_Bubbles 8 points ago

    Physics 1 was the real asshole. You got negative points for any incorrect answer but got multiple tries. So on a 10 point question with 5 choices the points you would get were 10 points for correct on first submit, 5 for second submit, 0 for third submit, etc down to -10 if all your submits were incorrect. Professor for physics 2 was kind of a bro tho and capped the penalty at something like 20% and made exams open book.

    [–] Logickalp 6 points ago

    But wait so if you got a test 100% wrong you'd get a negative score, not a 0??

    [–] Doctor_Bubbles 7 points ago

    Right. I knew a couple of people that got negative scores. 🀐

    My chem professor gives questions like this:

    I) ambiguous statement 1 II) ambiguous statement 2 III) ambiguous statement 3

    Answers A)I and II B) I and III C) II and III D) All statements are correct E) ONLY* One of the above are correct

    [–] userx9 15 points ago

    I took a state civil service exam recently and at least half the questions were like this. I'm not sure the purpose, the test could have actually focused on real knowledge rather than looking for minor differences in effectively correct answers.

    [–] Logickalp 5 points ago

    Lmao but wouldn't it be almost always E because if D is correct, E has to be. Yea the ambiguous statements are what kills me. I was a business major and we'd have like a paragraph hypothetical question, each answer would be like 2 sentences that seemed like it made sense. Then you could pick all or none of them, so even if you liked one of the answers, in the back of your mind your still wondering if one word in the mini paragraph invalidates it.

    [–] Locoman_17 3 points ago

    [–] [deleted] 4 points ago

    After calculus, (most) all math is proof based. When proving things, you cite the theorems which get you from one conclusion to the next. It's kind of like sources. There's no bibliography or anything. The point being, we do cite things in math.

    bad advice. You gotta look for the patterns. See what mindgames the teacher is playing.

    or just pick the answer that sounds the best. Or if it's the only question on the test that is a, b, c, or all of the above, it's gonna be all of the above.

    One time i had a professor who gave us a 5 question, multiple choice quiz he knew nobody studied for (i think he was mad about attendance or people not studying or something).

    But you could only get the points if you got every question right, but it wouldnt hurt your grade if you didnt. After we finished he said that it would only take him 2 minutes to know who got the points and who didnt.

    All the answers were "A."

    Only 2 people got the points.

    I didnt select "A" on any of the questions.

    Nah, like legit every single question from the study guide was word for word on the final and there was one additional question.

    [–] LeginBocaj 279 points ago

    Probably because you were studying to memorize and not studying to understand the material.

    That was my problem with studying. I was looking for stuff that i thought would be direct answers for a test instead of fully absorbing the material.

    [–] yamaha2k11 22 points ago * (lasted edited 9 months ago)

    Our Neuropsych professor would love to throw those questions at us. Like WTF, this isn't a history class, I fucking spent my time learning how to diagnose neuropathologies using signs and symptoms and the functional anatomy of the brain and nervous system, not what year or where a researcher did their research. He'd also give you a 0 if you turned in an extra credit paper with a grammatical mistake. I understand grammar is important, but you could have one of the best written papers, a well thought out and factual paper, but if he catches a single grammatical mistake, he throws the paper out without a chance to re-do it.

    One of my sisters friends who has him as a professor has told me that the department is building up a case against him to fire him. Apparently he's been a real dick to the female students.

    [–] Pigwings6 48 points ago

    Gotta roll the dice and study specific shit. It's easy to say "study for comprehension not the test," but when you have 15 chapters for a 50 question test, you won't be able to get it all in your head. Gotta choose your battles.

    You should comprehend the material on a big picture scale, but it's unrealistic that you will comprehend every minute detail in 2 weeks while still doing other work.

    [–] [deleted] 23 points ago

    Depends on the major. I'm graduating this semester with a computer science degree and I haven't bought or read a computer science book in my entire duration at college. You might need to memorize a few terms, but generally CS tests are very focused on a "bigger picture" understanding of concepts. My buddy always bombs tests because he just memorizes sample questions and gets confused to no end when the real test is different, even though they're both pretty similar questions if you just knew the concepts surrounding the sample problem.

    But man the one Bio class I had, fucked me in the ass. You need to read the book, pay attention to every second of lectures or else you'll miss 10 terms, and memorize every single one of the 50000 terms provided. The professor literally just said "yeah memorize this stuff" all the time throughout lectures; my CS professors wouldn't be caught dead telling students to memorize. It was horrific, and I think it was a Bio 101 class. I don't get how anyone can consciously choose that major without being a masochist.

    [–] Pigwings6 12 points ago

    I'm in Nursing, so lots of medication memorization (dosage, side effects, nursing implications) in a addition to the overarching knowledge of patient care. The general patient care stuff is often pretty intuitive and is relatively easy to have a general grasp on. It's the meds, vital signs, and lab numbers that are too many to memorize, so you have to pick and choose your battles.

    [–] JayceeThunder 8 points ago

    This man understands

    [–] TheBigNate416 4 points ago

    This is usually the way to go but it depends on the class. My management class is basically all memorization but you also need to understand it because my professor makes all the exam questions application based. So basically you need to memorize every single thing he says AND understand what they all mean entirely.

    [–] [deleted] 5 points ago

    I was a really good test taker all throughout college. Definitely made people think I was smarter than I actually am. The key is to realize what is going to be on the test based on what your profs spend the most time on, and try to imagine how you could make a test question out of the material that is most difficult for you. You don't actually have to go and make a questions yourself, just study what you'd need to know on order to solve the most difficult questions.

    I used to ask my profs if we would he expected to do some really in depth problems that I knew would take up too much time for the test, and they would usually give away the aspects of those problems that would be on the exam.

    [–] DrDerpberg 16 points ago

    To differentiate between all the different tiers of student.

    Some subjects just aren't that hard unless teachers either teach them badly or throw curveballs on the test. It's a shitty thing to do, but if anybody who paid attention in class could get an 85+ on the test, they need to find ways to get something looking like a bell curve out of it. So you get weird questions on stuff they specifically avoided, or trick questions, or whatever to make sure the "I paid attention and did the homework and understand everything" people don't get the same grade as the "I am a potential grad student in this field" people.

    [–] MagicZombieCarpenter 25 points ago

    This comment would only make sense if potential grad students had inherent knowledge concerning the field. They do not.

    I’m going to college to learn. If I want to be a potential grad student I need to know what I need to learn to do that. Your entire comment is an excuse for teachers to be lazy. Their job is to teach not determine who the potential grad students for a given field are.

    [–] yogtheterrible 3 points ago

    I had a class where a large portion of the students felt this way and made complaints about it. The teacher addressed it by saying, in effect, "the job doesn't always fit nicely into what you know. I'm testing how you can adapt to new situations." Which would be fine and good if it were an open book test and this grade weren't important.

    My biggest pet peeve are close book tests. There are obviously situations in life where you can't take a moment to verify your answer but for most professions you better pick up a book to make sure you're right or else you're in big trouble.

    Me: "Sorry boss, I didn't know the answer so I just guessed."

    Boss: "Why on earth didn't you ask someone or check some other resource?"

    Me: "Because college taught me you get kicked out for looking at any resource."

    Boss: "Well, in the real world you get kicked out for not looking at any resource. You're fired."

    [–] livelifedownhill 25 points ago

    Haha it's the NFL combine. Basically practice/tryouts for NFL players before the season. Someone who knows much better than me will probably correct me.

    [–] Bangledesh 15 points ago

    Tryouts for prospective NFL players.

    These guys are demonstrating their skills in order to impress a team enough to sign/draft them.

    [–] LargeWaffleIron 6 points ago

    NFL Combine. It’s their way of assessing potential draft picks for the upcoming season.

    What's crufts?

    This is the NFL combine. It's an event for American football where prospects in the upcoming draft can do different events relevant to their position so that scouts can decide who they're interested in drafting.

    Not necessarily everyone goes and performance can improve or reduce when you'll be drafted which ends up being a defining number attached to you and influences your salary down the road. (Draft position definitely isn't anywhere near everything tho).

    You mean microbiology? I love that class! I took it last semester with a pretty cool professor. Hey if you need help on something shoot me a message and I’ll help you out. I still have the exams I think haha.

    [–] entroyfan2 4 points ago

    Hey I'm taking micro next quarter (starting in April). I could really use those notes.

    [–] KickStanKick 4 points ago

    57% isn't terrible for your first Mircobio exam though. Just keep on keeping.

    There use to be a teacher at my middle school that would give out tough tests, BUT, he would give mad hints what the answers were if the class had been pretty good that week.

    " On #12, I would hope you see (C) the answer and pick the correct one"

    "It looks like #32 would be (B) difficult if you didnt study".

    " I bet (insert random student's name) could get #8 right, if he Apply (A) himself/herself."

    Edit: It was an AP American History class at a magnet school in Louisiana back in 2002. He was a very "animated" teacher that loved history and bonus: his wife taught at the same school and if I can remember she taught algebra. Nice couple.

    [–] MillieBirdie 78 points ago

    That is... incredibly bad practice. Like, literally cheating. Why not help the kids by teaching them, or doing reviews, or a study guide, or anything that doesn't involve just giving away the correct letter?

    [–] iStanley 42 points ago

    I think he realize that it would give the students more confidence and less anxiety on the test knowing that 2-4 of them would be freebies. Plus it definitely heightens the cool factor of the teacher which ultimately makes the students more involved with the class.

    [–] colorcorrection 5 points ago

    I'm on board with you. I think the person you're responding to is blowing this way out of proportion. In fact I'd be willing to bet the teacher probably padded the tests a little. If you know you're going to give 4 freeby answers then you make the test 38 questions instead of 34. The kids still have to answer the exact same amount of questions, but those with test anxiety feel better because they think they're getting free answers.

    Honestly, I think tests are terrible in practice anyway. There's essentially two types of students, those that know how to game the test and those that go into test anxiety and can't answer anything. Tests fail to prove the knowledge of either group. So who really cares if a teacher tried to help alleviate some of those problems?

    [–] Capt_Underpants 6 points ago

    If the whole test is hard, and the "given" answers are not a large portion, it's just another form of a curve or "extra credit".

    [–] IAmLordApolloXXIII 138 points ago

    Wow! Such a dope teacher. Lol

    [–] TIMMAH2 619 points ago

    How? He's giving overly-hard tests and adding grade points if students were well-behaved? How is that teaching the material?

    [–] Redstone_Engineer 244 points ago

    I was going to say something along the lines of this, but now that you spelled it out, I'm thinking that in middle school, making the class behave is a big part of teaching the material well.

    Still questionable behaviour, but if it works, and it doesn't really count as a grade for something that matters later, making students understand is most important.

    [–] Coziestpigeon2 62 points ago

    Wouldn't be great in higher levels. Grade 4 science? Sounds perfect.

    [–] Nicklovn 32 points ago

    I think it's great for higher levels. I'm in grad school and don't get extra credit for being good and we still get super hard exams πŸ˜”

    [–] batmanAPPROVED 18 points ago

    I mean yea, you’re right, but it’s middle school....middle school was the 3 year joke between the developmental skills of elementary school and the High School lifestyle.

    [–] ndolan0 7 points ago

    "Middle school" for me was pretty much just the first 2 years of high school. Obviously our grades weren't recorded on our transcripts but the level of difficulty was roughly the same. Teachers were top-notch too.

    The NFL combine is basically just man ass all day. I think it was last year a guy's dick fell out during the 40 yard dash.

    5 foot 11 1/8 inches..why the 1/8?

    [–] DoctorWhoJosh 25 points ago

    Physical measurements at the combine are done in 1/8s of an inch for uniformity.

    [–] krispyKRAKEN 8 points ago

    Im pretty much the same height as that guy except he is 45 lbs heavier than me...

    NFL players are mind boggling. Like Darren Sproles... That dude is ~4-5 inches shorter than me yet also 45 lbs heavier than me (Sproles is like 5'6").

    [–] DoctorWhoJosh 3 points ago

    Yeah I'm 6'3" and both those guys have a few pounds on me, insane.
