Transformers Venting thread!

[pleaseexplain101]

I've been meaning to ask pleaseexplain101 - is your user name paying homage to Pauline Hansen, mocking her or has nothing to do with her? Just curious. Probably many of our younger users have no idea what I'm talking about

all of the above lol, but feel the 'phrase' is more relevant nowadays in a different way where many people can't be bothered to google or search for information themselves and simply asks others to "please explain " on anything everything

Yep we had those crappy encyclopedia's at home too. Now kids just take laptops and tablets to school. Easier to plagiarise, at least we had to type out what it said in the book. Now they can just copy paste lol.

Forget plagiarism, I encounter senior students who cannot even engage in a discussion without having to whip out a device to Google stuff because they just don't retain knowledge in their brains!

Problem I have is people rely too much on google and too much on evidence based on studies even though it shows the studies are outdated.

I always see people challenging only based on what they googled but have not used life experience or choose to ignore someone who has new facts but yet to be studied.
