Gradescaping

When a professor makes up absurd and inconsistent standards for grading.

Landscaping the class grades to where you want them.

Can you believe this? I got an 83 on my test but I still got a B, even though the class’ C average was a 58. Textbook gradescaping.

gradual-ramp-up-volume greeting

Refers to a non-startling strategy employed whenever you are unable to unobtrusively get someone's attention or make eye-contact with him for whatever reason (maybe he's deep in a book, concentrating hard on a household/carpentry task, or using noisy equipment, and thus he does not look up/around occasionally or hear/observe your presence) and so you start out to say hello by speaking very quietly, and then cautiously raising your voice little-by-little (like some modern-day alarm-clocks do so as to wake you "gently" instead of startling you out of a sound slumber with a full-blast ringer right away) till the previously-oblivious person eventually becomes aware of your proximity and glances up.

I'd wanted to ask my elderly neighbor about my possibly carpooling with him on his grocery-shopping trip the next day, but he was so busy using his riding lawnmower that he never noticed me despite my circling around in front of him several times, so I eventually used the gradual-ramp-up-volume greeting to finally get his attention.

grade: #

Kids trying to resolve to ROBLOX filter: Jul.-UNKNOWN 2018 Edition.

The main reason kids in ROBLOX use what is 'grade:' (but had past generations {music:}, {dec:}, {nov:}, etc.) is due to the fact ROBLOX wants to keep their community "safe", but they went over the stage of overprotective parents, and one of the victims were numbers. Kids are now STILL finding ways to break the system.

"Can I have grade: # of this?"

# = Number
