Anyone here do pentrix?

Guest · Post by **Guest** » Sun Jan 29, 2006 5:59 am

I do. I'll post a video of what I can do in the morning. Right now I know how to do a double sonic, fingerpass, thumbaround and my own version of a reverse thumbaround. The next trick on my list is backaround and reverse sonic. If anyone knows how to do reverse backaround and/or reverse sonic and has a video of you doing it and/or some advice, please help me. If you don't know what pentrix is, watch these vids: http://pentrix.com/videos/videolist.php

I kick kids out of the room when they are doing that shit if they drop the pen and create a distraction.
Nothing is as annoying as the constant tapping noises made by pens and pencils being dropped by people trying to pull of a triple lindy or some damn thing with their pen.

I broke a kids pencil in half once and gave him both pieces. That way he couldn't do the trick. Made him write with that pencil the rest of the period too. Only because it was a constant thing with this one though.

For a moment I thought pentrix was some sort of adult film rental company.

rofl I never had a problem with a teacher while I was engaged in pentrix. If they told me to stop, I'd stop. If they told me to leave the class, I'd leave. If they told me to give my pen to them I'd tell them to fuck off.

First off, I'm talking high school right now, not college...so the rules are a bit different...

So let's begin with the high school scenario - here's the thing champ, when you are in the room its not A FREE COUNTRY. And if you're causing what I perceive to be a disruption with anythign from your calculator to your pen to your fucking lunchbox or diabetes medication I can take it and keep it until mommy and daddy pick it up.

Now if you were in one of the college classes I taught -
I wouldn't ask for the pencil, because you handle things differently when teaching college. I'd say "hey you in the back, yea the one who can't do his nightly homework because he is too preoccupied working on his l337 pentrix skills, please stop." Generally that's enough in college, because there are also other students who would be telling you the same damn thing out of annoyance.

But you do sound like the typical teen who uses that "ITS A FREE COUNTRY MAN, YOU CAN'T MAKE ME..." argument. Kids these days.

Thanks. Dunno how much longer I'll be doing this though. The system is so broken, and kids are so apathetic lately - for a myriad of reasons - that's its tough to have much hope for the future.
Shit, they've just shown that over half or so of graduating college seniors aren't literate enough to understand the arguments being made in op-ed pieces or read a mortgage.

You remind me of my English 12 teacher. Not that that's a bad thing, I thought he was the best teacher I ever had in my entire mandantory schooling time. I remember on the first day of that class, I made the mistake of talking to a buddy in the hallway for a bit which in turn made me about 45 seconds late for his class. Since I had no idea what this guy was like, I just walked in without knocking or whatever. I figured "hey, it's the first day, the rest of the class probably isn't here yet either so no worries". Damn was I wrong. I walked in and he was like "Why are you late?" and I was like "I dunno... I was talking to a buddy outside for a minute" to which he said something like "If you're late one more time, ever, in this entire semester, you can go see the office and have them remove you from my class." I was thinking to myself "holy shit, I was late less than a minute on the first fuckin day and this guy is already threatening to drop me from a class that's mandantory for graduation". I just said "ok, sorry, won't happen again" then he said "It better not. Take your hat off and find a seat". I never was late again and I ended up being the top student in his class, but his no bullshit attitude definetely worked on me. He didn't take shit from anybody. It was quite funny to watch when some hotshot kid walked in and tried to oppose him. If you didn't comply the first time, maybe the second time if he knew that you knew you shouldn't be opposing him, he just told you to leave and that you're no longer enrolled in that class haha. You shoulda seen the looks he got. "You can't fuckin' do that!" "Sure I can. I just did. Get your stuff and leave, please."

It was comedy gold. I think our class started at about 35 kids, by the end of the semester we had about 20. He was also a pretty harsh marker. He used to do this thing regularly where, upon us finishing a paper or small in-class assignment, he would collect them all, go to the front, announce the name of the writer, read its entire contents and announce a mark out of 10 to the entire class. Man you shoulda seen the uproar over this lol... fuckin little girls were going "omg don't read mine wtf are you doing you old man!!" and he would just ignore them and go "Julia..blah blah blah.. good.. you didn't answer my question though. 0/10. Next up.."

Hahaha..it was fucking awesome. I didn't always do too good.. my first couple I got like 3 or 4 out of 10... but I thought it was funny as hell. This was the first teacher I'd ever seen that stood up to the fucking kids. It was great. He was an awesome teacher to boot. For all I know, tnf is that teacher...
