Technology Gone Wild: Rise of the Machines


Story Highlights​

  • A Farnsley Middle School agenda included misspelled state names and errors in science materials.
  • A parent raised concerns with the school before JCPS notified families about the mistakes.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) — It took Stacey Morris' son just one day of school to spot something was off.

"Mom, did you know that we live in Venecky?" he joked with her on the drive home.


Morris had no idea what he was talking about until she opened the new student agenda he brought home from Farnsley Middle School.

On the pages inside, Kentucky was labeled “Venecky". Louisiana was "Lookoong." Alabama was “Alotome.” Illinois was “Vitoiis.” South Carolina was "Sorth Cuanto."

"Arizona is Arizone. Illinois starts with a V. I mean, it's crazy," Morris said.

The bizarre map was just the beginning. Morris found errors throughout the booklet, including a distorted periodic table and unreadable phases of the moon.


For Morris, the issue is about accountability. Families pay a ten-dollar instructional fee each year for these agendas. Morris also questioned whether AI was used to create the agenda.

"We have to pay a ten-dollar instructional fee every year to get this agenda," Morris said. "But you're making us pay for something you used AI for? That's kind of silly, in my opinion."


Morris emailed the principal on the first day of school but says she never received a response.

When WDRB asked JCPS about this, Wednesday the district's executive officer of communications said "I appreciate you bringing this to my attention. I spoke with the school today about inaccuracies in their agenda, and they are communicating with parents about the issue."

Wednesday, Farnsley administrators emailed teachers warning them about a "LOT of mistakes" on pages 19 through 36. Administrators told teachers to have students tear those pages out before taking the agendas home, and for teachers to keep those pages.

Wednesday the school's principal emailed parents to notify them of "inaccurate information" in the agendas.

"This is not a misprint," Morris said. "Someone did not look at what they were handing out to the students."


Now, Morris is left wondering whether Farnsley was the only JCPS school to receive the error-filled agendas or whether other families simply haven't noticed yet.

WDRB asked JCPS who printed the agendas and if they were distributed at other schools. The district did respond before this was published.

Penn State Cult (Joe Knew)

Some people think that less than a full mouth of teeth is a plus for a hooker though …
Well it’s proportionate to meth:coke

My point being they can maybe fake the sophistication of doing coke over meth but I’ve been up in that area….they are getting meth level hookers.

Probably from a truck stop.

People to Punch, Pet Peeves, and General Vexations (mega-merge)

I'm seeing more and more people parking in handicap spots, employees of the month spots and over spaces that are reserved for specific people with zero fucks given. When a society stops respecting these basic courtesies we have fallen.
I don't know if I'd go as far as "we have fallen", but I think I agree that a dude should be able to park in any other legitimate spot.

Never understood this practice by healthy people since those spaces are usually closest to the entrance. I am a fat old man with a desk/computer job and always look for a spot far away from the entrance so that I get at least a bit of exercise when I go places since I sit on my ass most of the time.
I park way away, usually, too. But it's more of a thing where I don't want to drive near the doofuses walking into and out of the store. Plus, I got a tiny car - I don't want to try pulling out of a parking spot where there's a lot of other cars. Your minivans and other nerdy cars aren't easy for me to see around.

But to your point... how hard is it to get a handicap tag? I see people parking in those spots, and the driver and passenger get out and they're as capable as I am. But they have a tag. So.. I guess they're allowed to do that? But back to Dub's point, why would they want to park there? It's literally 3 spots closer than the first non-handicap spot.
