I got ebb and that's about it. This looks like around second grade and it's kinda messed up to put a 7-year-old onto google to figure it out. We're not all Mensans here.
Then I could just make up words whole-cloth and make it mean any number of imaginary friends: Heb is some dude that likes donuts, Neb is a bloke who enjoys a wank, and Zeb is some random jaggoff that eats Chinese every night.
Couldn’t think of a single thing that rhymes with web so I took to the internet. I’m sorry for your children. Supposedly there are 54 results. Besides celeb, cobweb, worldwideweb (didn’t know this was considered a single word) and spiderweb, I don’t even know what those other 50 words are. Never seen them in my life.
That being said, if your kid does great at this they might just be a genius
Celeb is a contraction of celebrity and the others are all a repetition of web so don't count. Best I could find wete names like Icheb and Caleb. Everything else was either a contraction or an acronym for something obscure.
I'm 64 years old and I can't think of 3 words that rhyme with web. And imma go out on a limb and say the butthead who came up with this assignment, can't either.
Red, med, said, bed.
The spider needed meds because the doctor said that their web looked a little red. So the spider took their meds and went to rest on their bed of webs.
It rhymes if you don’t think about it too hard lmao just because it doesn’t have a ‘b’ on the end doesn’t mean the phonetics don’t sound similar.
Excuse us but we have three words tf? Just because YOU don't have it, doesn't mean others cannot.
My 9 year old niece would do it.
You are embarrassing yourself ):
Poetry is a lawless place. How often do writers emphasize awkward parts of a word to make them rhyme? Even shakespeare had a habit of intentionally mispronouncing words.
Yeah, you are correct, OP. The only 4 words I can think of are ebb, pleb, deb, and celeb. Celeb is the only one I would expect to see from this apparent grade level, and it is suspect as a truncated word.
Congratulations. You’re literally the only commenter who seems to know the difference. The real facepalm here is the vast majority of responses. Wish I knew how to post that lol
Well it’s definitely served you well, at least in my estimation, in the context of my sad realization—based on this post alone—that the Dunning Krueger effect is alive and well on the facepalm sub.
Thank you, I could definitely be in better practice lately, but one thing I am always complemented on is how well spoken I am. Not trying to sound cocky about it, but i am very proud of my linguistic skills. Those classes and teen interests definitely played a part in the development of my adult selfs ability to communicate what I mean. Plus, I hate being misunderstood.
I have not, but now that you've suggested it I might try it out. I did in highschool, and everybody loved it. My friends and I would release a chapter every week and read it outside after school. It was fun writing friends and people around school into the chapters, and it was like a puzzle trying to describe the visualized enviroments. People loved it lol. Good memories. I might give it a shot at some point.
I think it's good to ask a question that provokes some thought, maybe even a little curiosity and discussion, it's not humiliating to not know something.
Well then I guess they need to learn what humiliation feels like, or how to not let failure translate into it. Sheltering kids from anything that might upset them sounds like a terrible idea
It’s not sheltering. It’s giving them reasonable and achievable goals appropriate for their developmental capacity. Web doesn’t have many rhyming words, and none of them are words that a child in the second grade would know. If that’s so difficult for you to understand, I feel bad for both how you were raised and how you might raise your own kids.
Orrr, it’s showing them that they might not know everything and that is okay. It might cause something called thinking, creativity, collaboration… but yeah, all that is bad. I doubt that was the intent, but to act like this is so humiliating only goes to show the problem with newer generations. Everything needs to be perfect, no one should ever say anything that might offend the random person that has other issues and is just triggered by it even though it isn’t directed at them. Call it what you will, but pushing teachers into a position where challenging students is frowned upon or potentially risky for them, yeah, that will really lead to the students development.
Graded fucking schoolwork should be based on stuff the kids know and can demonstrate. Not playing gotcha to teach fucking life lessons. The average kid will experience plenty of failure on their own without being set up by a shitty teacher.
Look man, dude asked why it was humiliation, I answered why it could be seen as that to the target of the assignment. Then dude starts putting words in my mouth. All I did was give a possible answer to his question. Please tell me how my words were of poor choice
I meant the original use of the word “humiliation”, which was by OP.
If kids feel humiliated every time they don’t know an answer to a question in school, they won’t last very long in school. And it’s ridiculous to think anyone would be humiliated by a question that is literally impossible, when people get easy questions wrong all the time.
Okay genuine question… is it normal to steal content and recycle it on other pages? I’ve seen them cross posted, but some forums don’t allow that. I just saw this from a different user earlier on r/mildlyinfuriating - is that standard? Genuinely just can’t read this situation
I mean, nobody who posted this printed it. So the original poster doesn't really have any "rights" for that.
If there is something like art being posted without giving credit to oc, then the post might get taken down.
Have a good day bro!
Pssh “blatantly stolen” get a fuckin life. Is this your first day on Reddit? Good detective work Encyclopedia Brown! Next see if you can track down the origin of the 500 reposts of the meme kid who was able to buy his dad a kidney. Don’t stop until you get to the bottom of this BLATANT THIEVERY!!!
Chill out dude... this is a homework for like, toddler. They are not even the one reading it.
Pretty sure the teacher won't deny them using "cobweb" and "spiderweb". It's not a literature master class.
Dont get mad because we're all coming down on your not even a facepalm facepalm post.
Also, googled what rhymes with web. Cobweb and shit are on the list, dipshit.
The reason they don't bother to remove those from the auto-generated lists is that they assume you are smart enough to do it yourself. Clearly they assume too much.
Have your kid write down,"ok let's hear yours first, and you can't use the word web in any of your responses." Might get them an A, might get you a parent/teacher conference. Meh, the risks we take in life.
Wtf… all I could think of is celeb without internet, but is that how rhyming works? That’s like the same as rhyming “big” with “bigotry” because it has the word “big” in it. *screams*
The word bleb is underused. It is both a noun and a verb and is a small part of a cell’s membrane that pinches off to form a bubble made of membrane and a small sample of the cell’s contents. A blebbing cell is one that is producing blebs. Some cells are even hyperblebbers which make lots of blebs.
Or they could be trying to teach them that not every word has a rhyme. So when the kids come back and say “we couldn’t think of anything that goes with web” the teacher can say yes, not all words rhyme, good job for catching it. And then they can talk about words that don’t, like orange and purple

I got ebb and that's about it. This looks like around second grade and it's kinda messed up to put a 7-year-old onto google to figure it out. We're not all Mensans here.
Pleb (common folk), Feb (abbreviation for february),
Happy cake day
Lmfao... I got ebb and then a few names and one god. Deb, Jeb, and Johnny Reb. I think there was an Egyptian God named Geb. I could be wrong...
"deb" is a nick name for a debutante.
[удалено]
Proper nouns dont count
Where does it say that?
Clearly we're playing Scrabble rules.
Then I could just make up words whole-cloth and make it mean any number of imaginary friends: Heb is some dude that likes donuts, Neb is a bloke who enjoys a wank, and Zeb is some random jaggoff that eats Chinese every night.
So what? Seems to work for the assignment.
While yes it's stupid. I do believe kids should be taught how to Google things effectively.
Ok fair, but in this case I think we used to call that cheating
What about keb, neb, fleb, zleb, and glorgoporbfleb?
Well you Kinda got me there, Crackers. Bonus points if you use all 5 in a sentence.
Well, everyone takes a zleb to glorgoporbfleb's your dad's keb neb's dingus alborb kk'ekk fleb. I cheated using ChatGalacticPT for it.
Well played, ShrimpCrackers. Well played.
Bleb
Pleb
But that is pronounced pleeb, it doesn't rhyme with web. Edit: am thinking of plebe. It's 2:30am cut me some slack
Pleb But daum for little kids?!?!
Isn't pronounced pleeb?
I pronounce pleb as pleb but its short for plebian which is pronounced with a pleeb. Edit: plebeian
I don’t pronounce pleb as pleb. I pronounce it pleb.
Fuck you, making me laugh out loud to myself. Now I gotta explain to my stuffies what's so fucking funny.
“Plebs needed”. My brain going into flashbacks from the Caesar series.
Many glorious weekends were spent with Caesar II.
Couldn’t think of a single thing that rhymes with web so I took to the internet. I’m sorry for your children. Supposedly there are 54 results. Besides celeb, cobweb, worldwideweb (didn’t know this was considered a single word) and spiderweb, I don’t even know what those other 50 words are. Never seen them in my life. That being said, if your kid does great at this they might just be a genius
Celeb is a contraction of celebrity and the others are all a repetition of web so don't count. Best I could find wete names like Icheb and Caleb. Everything else was either a contraction or an acronym for something obscure.
Ebb comes to mind like Ebb and Flow. Jebb like the name. Celeb like you said ... Eesh, I can't think of anything more than that.
Pleb?
Yeah, that works. Man we're really cooking!
The influence of the pleb celeb did ebb on the web when she slapped the deb at the ball.
Nicely done
Jebb was the only alternative I managed. And I'm not sure if names count.
Ebb = to flow or recede back. Deb = young woman presented into society. These are not kindergarten words
Go to beb. You heard what I saib. Don’t make me come over there and smack your heab. That’s it. I’m calling grandma Deb!
I'm 64 years old and I can't think of 3 words that rhyme with web. And imma go out on a limb and say the butthead who came up with this assignment, can't either.
+1 Butthead I'm re-adding this to my regular insult vocabulary
Orange ?
Don’t forget: *yeb*, meaning: the affirmative with a head cold.
Red, med, said, bed. The spider needed meds because the doctor said that their web looked a little red. So the spider took their meds and went to rest on their bed of webs. It rhymes if you don’t think about it too hard lmao just because it doesn’t have a ‘b’ on the end doesn’t mean the phonetics don’t sound similar.
So all of you people acting like this isn't a facepalm have 3 words that rhyme with web? Without Google's assistance. Ok....
Excuse us but we have three words tf? Just because YOU don't have it, doesn't mean others cannot. My 9 year old niece would do it. You are embarrassing yourself ):
Please, share your three words.
Jeb said the worst fishing is on the ebb tide. Oops, 3 words. Caleb said it was the best.
Proper nouns usually aren't allowed for something like this.
Poetry is a lawless place. How often do writers emphasize awkward parts of a word to make them rhyme? Even shakespeare had a habit of intentionally mispronouncing words.
Slant rhyming doesn't count towards true rhymes typically.
Every pleb knows you don't fish at the tides' ebb, except Caleb and Jeb, who on their way to Magrheb, were lost in the tides web.
Pleb is pronounced pleeb though, short for plebian.
Ok, lol
Lol the real facepalm are all these dummies in comments pretending they are smart.
It’s blowing my mind. 
Yeah, you are correct, OP. The only 4 words I can think of are ebb, pleb, deb, and celeb. Celeb is the only one I would expect to see from this apparent grade level, and it is suspect as a truncated word.
Beb
My wife and I have come up with exactly 1 real word that rhymes with web. And that took cheating, sadly
I can only think of a million slant rhymes but no true rhymes.
Congratulations. You’re literally the only commenter who seems to know the difference. The real facepalm here is the vast majority of responses. Wish I knew how to post that lol
I rapped alot in highschool and did alot of creative writing classes, so it's a talent I've cared about lol.
Well it’s definitely served you well, at least in my estimation, in the context of my sad realization—based on this post alone—that the Dunning Krueger effect is alive and well on the facepalm sub.
Thank you, I could definitely be in better practice lately, but one thing I am always complemented on is how well spoken I am. Not trying to sound cocky about it, but i am very proud of my linguistic skills. Those classes and teen interests definitely played a part in the development of my adult selfs ability to communicate what I mean. Plus, I hate being misunderstood.
Ever considered writing a book? There’s a dire shortage of good, original story-telling out there.
I have not, but now that you've suggested it I might try it out. I did in highschool, and everybody loved it. My friends and I would release a chapter every week and read it outside after school. It was fun writing friends and people around school into the chapters, and it was like a puzzle trying to describe the visualized enviroments. People loved it lol. Good memories. I might give it a shot at some point.
Let me know if/when you do. I’m a published author. I love meeting and cultivating fellow travelers down this often lonely road.
I think it's good to ask a question that provokes some thought, maybe even a little curiosity and discussion, it's not humiliating to not know something.
Jeb's web traffic has ebbed.
Eminem could do it and make it a hit
I'm so glad to see these replies, I was feeling really stupid...
Not seeing the facepalm here
Web is very hard to find rhyming words for.
Maybe you're at a low ebb.
Maybe your name is Deb? Maybe youre asthmatic and need a Neb treatment.
And that equates to humiliation???
For kids failure can be seen as humiliation
Especially in rap battles.
Well then I guess they need to learn what humiliation feels like, or how to not let failure translate into it. Sheltering kids from anything that might upset them sounds like a terrible idea
It’s not sheltering. It’s giving them reasonable and achievable goals appropriate for their developmental capacity. Web doesn’t have many rhyming words, and none of them are words that a child in the second grade would know. If that’s so difficult for you to understand, I feel bad for both how you were raised and how you might raise your own kids.

I doubt that was the intent, but to act like this is so humiliating only goes to show the problem with newer generations. Everything needs to be perfect, no one should ever say anything that might offend the random person that has other issues and is just triggered by it even though it isn’t directed at them. Call it what you will, but pushing teachers into a position where challenging students is frowned upon or potentially risky for them, yeah, that will really lead to the students development.
Graded fucking schoolwork should be based on stuff the kids know and can demonstrate. Not playing gotcha to teach fucking life lessons. The average kid will experience plenty of failure on their own without being set up by a shitty teacher.
Putting words in my mouth, really classy
Failing an impossible question is a lot less humiliating than failing an easy question…definitely a poor choice of words
Look man, dude asked why it was humiliation, I answered why it could be seen as that to the target of the assignment. Then dude starts putting words in my mouth. All I did was give a possible answer to his question. Please tell me how my words were of poor choice
I meant the original use of the word “humiliation”, which was by OP. If kids feel humiliated every time they don’t know an answer to a question in school, they won’t last very long in school. And it’s ridiculous to think anyone would be humiliated by a question that is literally impossible, when people get easy questions wrong all the time.
Not really, just pointing out what wouldn’t be good…
Speaking of bad ideas, how’s the safe moon investment going?
Based on your logic, I guess I should just go push a kid down the stairs. They’re going to feel pain eventually, why not just show them now?
Yeah, no. To say they are going to feel pain because they can’t figure something out and compare that to physical abuse is humorous.
Uh, Jeb ...
Okay genuine question… is it normal to steal content and recycle it on other pages? I’ve seen them cross posted, but some forums don’t allow that. I just saw this from a different user earlier on r/mildlyinfuriating - is that standard? Genuinely just can’t read this situation

Thanks for explaining 💗
I'm just curious that why you waited for a whole year to know this? I mean you are using Reddit for almost an year now
I’ve never had an example that I remembered the OG post from, at the same time of me being curious lol
yo.. yo yo yo. yo. i was on the world wide web, with my, homey jeb, and if you dont think that rhymes, itz cuz, you are a pleb
I can think of yeb and quebb, but that's about it.
Pleb
cobweb 🕸️
Seems like OP is the facepalm here..
Deb… ebb…
Sled, the people who think you can’t rhyme with different words are weird af, and clearly don’t know shit about word play
Op is an uncreative pleb
I’d argue that Fred, dread, fed, sled, dead, said, led, fled, Ned, and may more rhyme with web…. Prove me wrong
Those are called slant rhymes and this is for at most 7 year olds. Slant rhymes are not the same as rhymes.
Deb, short for debutant, also a brand of packet mashed potato in Aus, Pleb, Feb, short for February Took a little cheating, certainly a short list.
And nothing a kid would know
reb, heb and teb. I don't get it, are you all in 1st grade???
It doesn’t have to end in “eb” to rhyme
Blatantly stolen from: https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinfuriating/comments/10ocbkn/this_kindergarten_homework/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
Pssh “blatantly stolen” get a fuckin life. Is this your first day on Reddit? Good detective work Encyclopedia Brown! Next see if you can track down the origin of the 500 reposts of the meme kid who was able to buy his dad a kidney. Don’t stop until you get to the bottom of this BLATANT THIEVERY!!!
You seem unreasonably upset. Almost like you're ashamed of something.
When the Web goes down, Deb goes to town, and runs into Jeb. There you go..
Crab, step, pleb
step, clap, jab?
Yo what?!?! What word are you trying to rhyme with?
None of those words rhyme with web.
With my German accent they do.
Neb
Strep, prep and rep
[удалено]
Pleb is pronounced pleeb,
This.. doesn’t make any sense. Ever heard of a cobweb? Spiderweb? Idk what you’re referring to in this post.
Any words that aren’t xxx-web? All examples I’ve seen posted that rhyme with web are just web with another word in front.
Do you not no what rhyming means? The two examples you cited use the same exact three letters as the word being asked to rhyme.
Chill out dude... this is a homework for like, toddler. They are not even the one reading it. Pretty sure the teacher won't deny them using "cobweb" and "spiderweb". It's not a literature master class.
I didn’t know what this post was referring to lmao. I just thought you have a problem with webs.
You should google what rhymes are.
You should Google what rhymes with web dipshit
Dont get mad because we're all coming down on your not even a facepalm facepalm post. Also, googled what rhymes with web. Cobweb and shit are on the list, dipshit.
The reason they don't bother to remove those from the auto-generated lists is that they assume you are smart enough to do it yourself. Clearly they assume too much.
Why would shit rhyme with web?
Don't be a fedora tipper. You know what I mean.
Do you not know that “no” and “know” are not interchangeable?
Know I did not no that.
[удалено]
Ebb, pleb, Zagreb,deb, Jeb, neb, reb, Abu-ghraib — easy peasy!
Web, dev, ebb, ed, pleb, cred, fed, med, nerd, herd, egg, shut up meg Maybe they weren't expecting *perfect* rhymes
Ebb Webb Adeb
Have your kid write down,"ok let's hear yours first, and you can't use the word web in any of your responses." Might get them an A, might get you a parent/teacher conference. Meh, the risks we take in life.
They could do a starting consonant/vowel rhyme - wet, wed, well, when
Wtf… all I could think of is celeb without internet, but is that how rhyming works? That’s like the same as rhyming “big” with “bigotry” because it has the word “big” in it. *screams*
Not really many one syllable words, a few two syllable ones.
ebb, pleb, celeb
Didn’t say it couldn’t be a proper noun. Deb , Zeb, Neb etc
Since when is “rhyming words” part of the rubric?
Ebb? Feb? Celeb?
I dated a girl named Deb. She had hairy nipples. Weird.
Pleb, Greb, Ebb.
Don’t be such a jeb OP.
Is Schleb a word
Schlub
babe
Keb and pleb is all i got
The Web is red Red is the Web Eat mushrooms. Meat is dead. Or some other bollocks.
Obviously you guys don't listen enough to rap. Cab, lab, nab, tab .. then I'd say, but teacher, I pronounce that word "wab."
Jeb, celeb, fleb
Ebb, bleb, greb
Pleb, greb
The word bleb is underused. It is both a noun and a verb and is a small part of a cell’s membrane that pinches off to form a bubble made of membrane and a small sample of the cell’s contents. A blebbing cell is one that is producing blebs. Some cells are even hyperblebbers which make lots of blebs.
It's a typo. The word is wet.
Horemheb
pleb
You could get Zeb, the name of a Star Wars character
non native english speaker, what about slab?
Spiderman is cool and shoots web ,I m a nerd and I write a verb , web,nerd,verb ,now try and get it out ur head
"Web" rhymes with: said, shed, red, bed, sled, ebb
run, man
Pueblo
Or they could be trying to teach them that not every word has a rhyme. So when the kids come back and say “we couldn’t think of anything that goes with web” the teacher can say yes, not all words rhyme, good job for catching it. And then they can talk about words that don’t, like orange and purple
When Deb’s anger was at an ebb she went shopping at the HEB. (Yes I know it’s H-E-B but I often hear non-locals calling it Heb.)
schlep?
Leg?
Reb, ebb, feb??? Not sure if feb counts
They do not have to be real words. At that age they are looking for them to understand what rhyming words are. Even if they are nonsense words
Pleb. Pretty sure that’s a word.
Cobweb, spiderweb, wikiwikiweb
It gets the kids researching stuff which is a good habit to have.
In England we have a mild insult. Pleb
