TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Middle School Principal Comes To The Rescue With Hair Clippers

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Middle School Principal Comes To The Rescue With Hair Clippers

We’ve all been there. No one likes a bad haircut. Adult, teenager, kid, doesn’t matter. It’s the worst feeling. That’s what this story is so nice.

A middle school principal at a school in Indiana went viral after he helped out one of the students by going home to get his hair clippers. The kid refused to take off his hat because he hated his haircut so much and thought all his classmates would make fun of him. When the principal came back with his clippers he saved the day by giving the kid a haircut!

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: What is the real name for the cardboard sleeve on coffee cups?

Every time I get a coffee to go from somewhere and put one of those cardboard sleeves on the cup I always wonder if it has a real name besides “cardboard sleeve thingy”

It does! Some other actual terms for it are coffee clutch, coffee cozy, Java Jacket, and paper zarf. Paper zarf?! I’m definitely trying to ask for that next time just to see the look on the persons face.

Stealing anything is a terrible thing to do, but if you steal someone’s pets by doing THIS, that’s all I need to know about you! (6:51)

Every week, Raven’s wife Alicia calls the show and gives Raven a grade based on how good of a husband he was.  This week, Raven did something terrible.  He ate his wife’s leftovers!  She’s not happy about it, but Raven made it even worse when he said THIS!  (10:29)

Have you ever used the Next Door app?  It’s a great tool to find out what’s going on in your neighborhood, but the comment’s section can get a little ridiculous.  So naturally, Anna and Raven decided to act out some of their favorites!  (14:28)

It’s a boy, they already have a daughter who is three years old. She says they must sell their house because she won’t be able to sleep- ever- if she’s on a different floor from her kids, he says she’s being nuts! He says they have a monitor, what’s the difference if they’re sleeping on a different floor? it is the same house! Whose side are you on?  (32:23)
