The Roodeness Shenanigans

We're doing sheep brain dissections in psych and I actually touched it and did stuff. The inside looks like a mushroom and I don't think I'll ever be eating a mushroom again
Also freshman me would hate every aspect of current me and that's the biggest accomplishment I could achieve

Ooh fun! I felt sick during the dissection class (frog dissection in freshman bio) so I left and read Crooked Kingdom in the school library instead

The squid dissection I did in bio was really gross and it went horribly but this one didn't smell as bad probably because of the masks and there's an actual diagram so we aren't confused as hell and destroying everything

the only 'dissection' i remember doing was roughly around 5-6th grade. one involved poking a poor worm and the other involved taking apart an owl pellet and figuring out what it ate from the bones

Wait there are diagrams-
I've dissected a rat and a sheep brain and both times the teachers were just like go at it and we destroyed the subjects. I don't know what we were supposed to take away from it.

Yeah since it's psych and not bio we're mostly just looking for the parts and describing what they do, which we already know. It's more just a thing we're doing because my teacher likes it rather than an introduction to brains or something

Population control early on. Nice

The bio kids dissected a shark yesterday and it made me sad cuz sharks are my favorite animals

LITTLE SHARKS ARE SO CUTE

uh
it was in the school library
but we did have gloves

Sharks are real cute. Not the big ones, the little ones with excess pointy things.

i've petted small sharks before

Sharks are just adorable in general. It honestly made me sick when people recapped how easy their skulls were to cut into.

Fun fact! Statistically, vending machines are more deadly than sharks. Vending machines kill on average 3 people a year while sharks kill on average .5 people a year

question, because it's bugging me since it's happened multiple times at this point

okay, so i'm a smartass. i make jokes that poke at technicalities with a shit-eating grin because i'm joking. The way i say it by no means, at least to me, is undermining or condescending. like today, my grandmother was saying how she thought you shouldn't have magnets around a computer while i was testing a keyboard for my new ipad, so i drawled (with a smile) "well technically it's not a computer." because it's a tablet. but i was joking. i make jokes

but my mother has repeatedly said that whenever i do that, it gets to the point where i need smacked "for that shit"
????? and yet when adults "joke" about things that shouldn't be joked about, like things that very clearly embarrass me or make me uncomfortable, that's completely fine

anyway, my question is, in r/AITA fashion, am i actually an ass??

I mean… it depends on the person you’re saying it to. If someone was always being a smartass around me I would get seriously pissed off pretty quickly because I find it unnecessary and things like that annoy me, however my best friend would play along with the joke and have a laugh.

mom is someone who will carry on sex jokes for half an hour and has twisted someone's faults into something funny, i don't exactly know about my grandmother. i don't believe i do it all the time?? just usually when the opportunity arises and if i'm even paying attention

I love being outside and all but I don't love scratching myself until I bleed
