It used to be worth it. It isn't anymore. You have access to the internet. Use it.

Some classes use an online forum like platform where you can submit anonymous questions and get answers from TA and your peers

Really depends on the teacher. The ones who are dicks about it are way too common.

What's scarier?

Speaking up in class?

Or a zombie on a roller coaster?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago

I feel like a zombie on a roller coaster is fairly safe.

I mean for one thing, he passed the vibe check to be allowed to wait in line, and get on the roller coaster.

And even if they got up on the ride, and started crawling on the cars, it's still going like 100 miles per hour, and going upside down. He's going to fall like 300 feet to his second death long before he reaches you.

I guess I just don't see a zombie on a roller coaster as any real threat. So yes, speaking up in class is scarier.

I have a coworker who feels the need to ask an obviously pointless question in every single meeting just so they can be seen and heard. I should make this comic strip their desktop background.

Who would win in a fight? A sunflower? Or a bucket of 1990s Nickelodeon green slime?

A lot of times the problem I had was that I didn't sufficiently understand something from a week or two ago. So to clear up my confusion, the teacher would have had to stop the class and let me work through a couple examples of previous work till I understood it. (yes I'd study between classes too.)
