Does that one sign say “1st Taste?”
Always popular in central Iowa -
Simple misunderstanding. They actually put the cum inside the cake like a Bavarian cream filling.
I had no idea either.
And this is why we can’t have nice things.
FINE! I will. And I’ll take my Western civilization with me!
Talk about ‘circumstances beyond your control’…
(also @pucksr )
Theoretically, with an A+ in everything, it’s possible to get a 4.3. OK, 4.5 if you get an A+ in everything and attend a school with no minus grades (IIRC, one of my instructors in college used that system). So the parent made a typo and meant to say 3.79 GPA, which is pretty damn good.
ETA: @Bloo points out that some high schools use a 5 point scale, just to confuse the heck out of people used to a 4 point scale. 4.79 out of 5 is certainly cum laude territory.
Happy Wedding Graduation!
(am totes magotes gonna start referring to divorces as wedding graduations)
Oh, cum on, Melz2! There’s no need for that kind of ejaculation around here.
Are you cumplaining?
You’re cumpletely missing my point.
My apologies, if I’m making you uncumfortable.
Sum cum laud? I can see why the cake maker might find that offensive.
Actually some school systems use a scale that goes to 5, and an ‘A’ in an “advanced” or “AP” class will net you a 5, a ‘B’ a 4, etc. so it is theoretically possible to get to 5.0
TIL… I am way out of touch. Also not so much ew… but why?
I looked this up - yes I have no life and am an unrepentant pedant:
They seem to grade on a 5 point scale, so that is something like 98 average (or a 93 for honors, or an 88 for AP/IB).
