I don’t not use Arch, by the way
It says words, not phrases. So you’re not allowed to use “I,” “use,” “by,” “the,” “way,” or “and.”
I was already gonna make fun of the useless red circle, you didn’t need to misplace it lol
All words starting with N are banned I guess, like I use *ixOS btw
Niagara Falls and Nebraska. Any children whose names start with N - sorry little Neighthan, Nanceigh, and Naruto.

The concept of “banned words” (other than the offensive stuff, of course) in a classroom is so funny to me. There is no way that the person who came up with that wasn’t the sourest loser ever.
Plus kids will find a way. Our english teacher didn’t want us to say ‘shit’, but to use ‘sugar’ instead.
There was a lot of ‘bullsugar’ and similar in that class.
yeah this just basically “come up with a bunch new things that’ll annoy us”
Try teaching middle school. You’ll understand. That being said, teachers mostly do this as a joke.
Nah few teachers are actually serious about it. My cousin is a school teacher, she takes all these a little too seriously
I remember one of my teachers banning “doh!”. It didn’t last very long.
I always assumed (hoped) these were put up as jokes by the teachers. “Dang it Jeremy that’s another one for the board!” type of banter.
Looks like they banned how to use image editing software as well.
Not allowing Miku Miku Beams is reasonable tbh. Firing one of those off can level cities.
This must be out of date, there’s no big back or turning Ohio or anything. Not even a “ACkShuLly it’s GNU…”
My kid and his friends didn’t make up big back?? This list is old? Fuck. I’m at that point… I know nothing.
I don’t use Ubuntu, by the way.
I use Ubuntu just to trigger people.
I use Arch to trigger elitists
I use neither Arch nor Ubuntu, btw
The Linux version of “I went to college ^outside of^ Boston”
Most colleges are outside of Boston, classmate!
noo not miku miku beam >.<
you still have miko miko nurse and neko miko reimu at least?
foul language and n words
All the words that start with n are banned
Noooooooo!!!
Oh, sorry…
Ooooooooooo!!!
red ellipsoid
I use stretch-ed Debian btw
I hope it doesn’t have a gaping security hole
Pointing at whitespace and showing ominous going on with the letters contained in the ellipsoid
I like how foul language etc is halfway down the list
What is your favorite distro and why is it Arch?
Wiki and pacman
Honestly 2 amazing reasons.
Yeah pacman is a fun game and the wiki for it is great /s
I get to break shit and it’s my own, perfectly avoidable fault and not the work of some careless greybeard on another continent.
“N-words” plural? I can imagine edgy students going out of their way to avoid all words starting with that letter as a result of that rule, just to be difficult.
The sign itself lacks words starting with that letter other than the rule which bans it, and the separate quoting of one word that has one in it somewhere suggests they’re allowed as long as they’re unspecified on the list (otherwise that entry would have been omitted), so it’s entirely possible to misinterpret.
On the other hand, avoiding all words starting with that letter seems like a fun idea, but will people even be able to tell? And it’s surprisingly hard to express some concepts without it.
i see what you’re up to here. you’ve created your whole post without words that start with that particular letter. i do disagree that it’s hard to express yourself without it however; it’s perfectly possible, i’d say simple, actually, to completely erase the letter from your vocabulary. i’m able to get by perfectly well without a sole use of it, all with perfect legibility. yes, i’d go as far as to say that it’s probably close to the bottom of the list of letters
whenif ordered by value. get rid of it, i say. to optimize the alphabet is to get our speech closer to the speed of thought. after that, wecanwill start to chip at the big boys; your time has come, S!when

Almost. You did well, but it’s too hard for me, except maybe for short phrases like this, which, regardless, still requires effort well above my comfort. It’s the sixth most used letter by some measures. Seek out the typesetters’ placeholder phrase where the first “word” has it as last (sixth), place, before the successor “SHRDLU”, which show the order of the most used letters of, uh, latter-day British? Oof. Edit: Modified to avoid a superfluous usage.
This hurts, so it’s time for me to stop.
FUCK
it says n words they’re allowed to have one
