Real life quotes I’ve heard from my students as a student intern and now as a substitute teacher:

1.) “…stick to stripping kid”

2.) “they don’t talk about the crabs in the sparksnote” (I wish so much that I could remember the context for this)

3.) (when asked what his goal for the new year is) “to shake off them haters like my boy: Taylor Swift”

4.) “you should look at google images of mayonnaise and maybe you’ll feel better”

5.) (In regards to Astrology) “It’s celestial racism!” “It’s more fun than racism!”

6.) I do NOT spit on dogs”

7.) “can our team name be ‘team schmoney?’’’

8.) (in regards to Jay Gatsby) “he’s simping your honor!”

9.) (while watching the great gatsby movie) “oh my god this is so gay ( nonderagoatory ofc)”

10.) “does this school have insurance for the rapturing?”

11.) Student: “I speak Italian: (in an awful Italian accent) spaghetti, pizza, croissants!”

Me: croissants are French

Student: oh fuck

I will continue to update as I attend more gigs lol

Substitute Guy deserves more lore, or at least an official name, tho I love how the Pokémon world has “generic Pokémon shape”

A Gift-Giving Guide* by the Twins

*Don’t take this too seriously.

Warning: implied trauma incoming.

⸻

Rhian: Even if the person you’re buying a gift for isn’t important to you, you still must put in the effort to make a Good impression. Thus, if you can’t find anything your recipient would truly enjoy, just find a suitable substitute. Something, anything really, non-specific that no one will contest with will do. In addition, the gift must be of an acceptable quality, and as long as you invest in the gift’s presentation, you will probably not fail. Remember: as a giver, you’re more likely to be judged or faulted for an oversight sooner rather than later, so you must wrap the gift impeccably, with embossed paper and matching ribbons. Your best-laid plans will be the holiday equivalent of “dress to impress.” You’ll be less vulnerable to critique that way. And no one, absolutely no one, will shame you or claim you haven’t tried and given your all!

⸻

Rafal: What matters most about a gift are its contents and what such contents mean. No one will care what empty shells of wrapping paper look like, if they don’t like the contents. So, it’s best to choose a gift your recipient wants so desperately that they won’t be able to refuse it. Prepare for an influx of emotion from your recipient if they’re that type. And, it’s all the better if you went to great lengths to acquire the gift for them, and make that known, implicitly, so they don’t catch onto your power play. If you took every expense, you’ll deserve their recognition and henceforth, should subtly remind them, after the season’s over, of what their lives would be without your gift, of exactly how deprived they would feel if they didn’t have it. Then, they’ll subconsciously feel indebted to you and won’t ever leave you, for they’ll be too occupied by gratitude and guilt to consider other, worthless options or stupid exchanges, especially when they’ve already received something substantive of the objective, best quality because you know what’s best for them. Oh, and never give them the receipt. They can’t change their mind if it’s too late and they’ve already committed to something that cannot be replaced.

Nobody can ever tell me that stricter gun laws aren’t necessary. I just had to sit through a lockdown holding the hands of two of my special needs students and tell them that I would make sure they were safe.

I had to tell one of them to cry quieter because I didn’t know whether or not it was a drill.

Fuck off with your 2nd amendment bullshit.
