I'm sorry to have to write to you like this and tell you that your daughter is under-performing. But I'm part of this system. And I had to confess. by LS69in unitedkingdom

Ah but it would be sexist for a predominantly female subject to be cooking!

The tech is there, in that they make you do the same design and development coursework as all the other tech subjects, it's just that it's entirely shoehorned in. (All tech subjects have the same specification and mark scheme, it's just the choice of materials and the exam that differs)

It doesn't really make much sense to offer food tech at all, it's not a practical subject (doesn't teach how to cook) and it's not a technology because really how many people in the country actually design food products?

That one's actually a result of woodwork/metalwork being rolled together (the "resistant" materials, because they're hard) to make room for electronics, graphic design and food tech (which is another pretty stupid name)

Good luck everyone with your exams! by Xelroniain teenagers

Yep you're edexcel then :) The maths students in the politics class aren't happy about the 5 minute break between the papers where they have the same clash as you.

SO basically, good luck especially for Wednesday, I think you're going to need it to avoid clawhand mid-essay.

I've got Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Politics.

Which exam board are you for chemistry and politics? I'm Edexcel for both, which is a bind because my unit one politics clashes with unit two biology :s

Local dad took his disabled daughter to her senior prom. Dad of the year right here. by FishyJoeJrin pics

Proms themselves are American, and while your one sounded good, for the most part they seem to be one of the worst bits of American culture we've imported.

I can't believe GAME bought out the best gaming shop on the high street and then went bloody bust!

There were already two GAME shops, Gamestation made a third!

You just teleport, apparently. No magic needed.

Runescape is far better in 2012, And all of the nostalgia posts can fuck off. by Agarestin runescape

[–]Xelronia 5 points6 points ago

The new content may be improving but the direction updates are taking towards everything being "elite" means that the attitude of most players makes the game a hell of a lot less fun for those of us who remember the older versions of the game fondly.
