Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

In my city the norm is 7 hours, different start times depending on grade group. Elementary is 8am-3pm, Middle is 9am-4pm, Highschool was 7am-2pm (I fucking hated waking up for HS).

If you're doing a club, now you're stuck there for at least another hour, and if you have no car and no person to pick you up/drop you off from after school activities, your ass has to wait for the activity bus, which left at 5pm in HS

So no regular schooldays being 8 hrs, but if you do extracurriculars, it's certainly long...
