Yes, so similar, and hopefully minus the education trauma!

OMG, I just looked up photos of SRA and that is exactly it. Thank you!

Maybe! Are they large, like maybe close to 8.5” x 11”, and sometimes folded like a pamphlet?

Yes, it was so real and no forced dialogue. So many complex characters and I wish we could have seen all that was possible in a next season.

Yes, the group think is the worst!

As always, spend your dollars with small businesses, especially restaurants. It's rough out there. Patronize them, become regulars if you can, and spread the word. And if you see this kind of Karen review BS, tell them you saw it and that's why you're here -- so that you can support them even more.

And here's the thing, self-righteous "reviews" like that, whether on NextDoor or Yelp, can be detrimental to small businesses. I was with a small restaurant for years and saw first-hand how any minor issue or even perceived slight could unfurl into a tale of epic proportions for all to read.

I'd been there a dozen times since they opened and always enjoy talking with the owner who runs the front and takes the orders -- great spot, friendly service, good vibes. As I stood at the front this morning, I seethed picturing the Karen who threw a plate of food on the floor.

Several people pushed back and stood up for the place, which only goes so far on NextDoor. Many of us took another route and I know I'm not the only one who saw this woman's post and immediately went in to spend my dollars at their restaurant.

On NextDoor, dozens of people then piled on to "thank" this person for "warning" them about this place and then vowing in true NextDoor fashion to never set foot in this establishment and announcing they'd spend their money elsewhere. All this online posturing based on this one woman's rant.

I tell my students the same thing. This is a bit different -- I enjoy reading my students' work, but even the best planners among us can still feel overwhelmed by the demands of the end of the semester.

Ha! We miss your humor in class, Max!
