Food Tour of Fandom [Mon, Period 2]

[doubleohblonde]

Today Bond was lounging on the lawn of an impressive stone building, warm sun beaming down, as his class arrived. He'd had a good weekend off island. A portable coffee cart stood on the landing between the steps, a barista tending to an espresso machine.

"Coffee," Bond began. "Is not just about caffeine, though that is also important. Coffee is about culture, coffee is about being social. As early as the 14th century, coffeehouses were hubs of social activity. Artists, intellectuals, writers, political radicals, all of these gathered in these places. In places with a strong coffee culture, the making and drinking of coffee becomes an important part of everyday life. For example, we're currently in the heart of Melbourne, Australia. The modern Melburnian coffee culture only arose in the 1950s and 1960s, largely as a result of the post-war influx of Italian immigrants, yet within decades became so entrenched that when certain unnamed global corporations attempted to franchise their own version of coffee culture...I'd hesitate to use the phrase abject failure, but it certainly wasn't the grand success they were hoping for."

"But enough talk, enjoy the weather, enjoy the coffee, enjoy each other's company."

[Class Roster|Class Rules]

Anarchist Philanthropist Club; Tuesday after Classes [ 01/31 ].

[shestheworst.livejournal.com]

Hopefully, everyone had made it to the clandestine location in which the Anarchist Philanthropists of Fandom High would unleash their first revolutionary bit of charity. If not, well, then, they would probably find themselves on the better side of the law. Though she was hardly a law-abiding citizen, Britta was nervous, wringing her hands a little as she looked toward the store, and then back to her fellow anarchists.

( LJ Cut to spite the Man! )

“Okay, guys,” Britta clapped her hands together. “Let’s go!”

[[ and the OCD, she is a'comin' has arrived ]]

So You're a Fugitive From Justice, Tuesday, 3rd Period

[cataclysmicluck.livejournal.com]

"One of the more pressing issues when you're on the run is the fact that you still need to eat," Zayne said, opening class with a lovely thought. And being on the run, you probably don't have access to much wealth, so you're going to have to do something if you want to survive."

( Food Day! )

Polar Opposites, Tuesday

[ofthe-wilds.livejournal.com]

"All right, we've been practicing a bit these past few weeks," Alistair announced, "But now it's time to bring in the serious topics. Now, none of you are allowed to throttle anyone else about your opinion, even if you might be tempted..." Morrigan.

( Morrigan didn't throttle! ...but the spell for frogging anyone who got physical or rude about the debate was waiting on the tip of her tongue. )

Morrigan just smiled.

It probably wasn't very reassuring, the way it showed all her teeth.

[OOC: OCD is up, FYI, today's class is debating the death penalty.]

Sex Ed, Tuesday First Period

[screwyoumarvel]

"I hope everyone's doing well," Steve said, "and that you viewed the experience of this weekend, if it affected you, as a chance to learn and experience how the other half lives--or, if you've been affected at another time, you did so then, or will in the future. I want you to think about that, and what maybe you thought the differences between men and women were, and maybe if they're actually different. But that's not what we're doing this week. This week we're watching a film about teen pregnancy. There are snacks," he said, gesturing toward a table, "so make yourselves comfortable and enjoy the movie."

Library [01/31]

[secretheritage.livejournal.com]

Cassie was quiet as she worked in the library today. She hadn't felt well all weekend and now she was positive that she was coming down with something.

She shelved the books and then retreated back behind the desk with a book on holistic remedies.

The Continuing Classroom Adventures of Jeff and Jamie

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

"Good morning class," Jamie said cheerfully as they all filed in. "Today we have a special treat for that goes along with what happened over the weekend. Specifically a part of the female anatomy called... The bosom."

( Yes. The Bosom )

[OOC: Today's assignment deals with Jeff and Jamie talking about female anatomy and assigning students a task that no teacher in their right minds would ever ever ever assign. Jeff and Jamie are not in their right minds. If we spirits have offended think but this; and all is mended that you have but RP'd here while these visions did appear and this weak and idle theme no more yielding but a dream. Gentles--do not reprehend if you pardon, we will mend. And, as I am an honest Madrox if we have unearned ...Box. Now to scape the serpents tongue. We will make amends ere long else the Jamie a liar call. So--goodnight unto you all. Give me your hands if we be friends. And Jamie shall restore amends.

Also: If you're easily offended by the use of female anatomy in jokes and feel uncomfortable, you may not wish to read.]
