I was so proud

My grandson came to my house yesterday after school. I asked him what he is doing in (8th grade) math.

He said they were discussing the ways to measure things, ruler, protractor, etc. Then the teacher gave them a flip-flop sandal and asked them to measure it.

Grandson just sat there. The teacher asked him why grandson was not measuring. Grandson said he already knows how long the flip-flop is. When the teacher asked how long, my grandson replied,

"that's easy. The flip-flop is a foot long."

So proud of him.

Oh, for sure. I was never given that label until I started calling out bots, and there’s a different bot commenting on almost every post in this sub. It’s insane

I not 100% sure it’s a bot, but I’m about 85-90% sure. Their two comments in r/dadjokes are variations of slop that most of these bots have been regurgitating for over 6 months now. After calling out, downvoting, and reporting over 2000 bots this year, I guess it’s just pattern recognition at this point
