None of that noisy cheering here!
Grandpa, didn’t there used to be this thing called Western civilization?

What happened to it, grandpa?
Son, it schooled itself to death…
There’s just no limit to what “educators” can come up with when they’re dreaming up incredibly stupid ideas.
A few years ago a school in Sydney, Australia, came up with “silent cheers.” They kept it going for a while until the whole world wound up laughing at them.
Why any parents would want to subject their children to “school officials” is well beyond me. Could it be nothing more than a really bad habit?
what?? cheers demand sound, don’t they?
