I always told myself that being a teacher didn’t pay enough, but p sure it would be worth becoming a high school teacher just so I could cynically laugh at all the homework from overly-enthusiastic kids who do the “I’m into [band/hobby/other embarrassing shit] so every assignment I do will revolve around [band/hobby/other embarrassing shit]” thing.

Things I like about this: She didn’t use bleeding cowboys.
Things I don’t like: Everything else.
Lol, seriously the Comic Sans/Papyrus of every band that would have instantly had 2500 friends on MySpace. It’s one of those fonts that would be cool if it were only ever used once in the history of typesetting (kind of like Papyrus, really–the only band that can use it is Nile LOOKING RIGHT AT YOU LAMB OF GOD).
Until now I didn’t know this font was called Papyrus. I always referred to it as the “self-help font” because it’s the one favored by yoga, meditation, reiki, etc. establishments in my area.

“I saw the ad and came right away; my chakras is FUCKED up kid.”
I can’t hear the word chakra and not immediately think about naruto via lots of time spent watching toonami as a 5th grader
I watched a ton of naruto too, but i was like 28 :(
You laugh, but I’ve seen flyers for it on campus.
don’t forget “ethnic” restaurant menus and freshman world civ midterm exams
Did he get that photo from a Blind Melon show @ the rainbow gathering in 1992 or sumpthin, where are the mesh shorts, where are the MOSH-BROS? Is that one kid covering his face to block out the stank?

holden caufield speaks!
“Cierrawithasea” AKA: On top of giving me a name that’s already retarded my parents decided to make me a special snowflake and spell it differently.
I’ve seen like, an equal number of Sierras and Cierras.
I don’t know that I’ve ever actually met anybody named Cieera.
Emersyn

all i can think of is emerson the maker of cheap household electronics sold exclusively at k-mart

Yeah. Take it from me: still ain’t worth it.
Surely the pleasure of interacting with administrators makes up for all the difficult parts of the job?
Teacher: You can choose whatever topic you want for the paper as long as you can meet the requirements…
Kid in Shitty Band Shirt: Can I do it on this Shitty Band I like?
Teacher: As long as you meet the requirements of the assignment you can choose whatev-
Kid in Shitty Band Shirt: CAN I DO IT ON THIS SHITTY BAND I LIKE?
Teacher: -Sigh- Yes, do it on that Shitty Band. It will be your fourth assignment on them but whatever you-
Kid in Shitty Band Shirt: YYYEAAAAAAAAHHH! ROCK AND ROLL! School just got uber sweet! -Does poor air guitar impression and falls on floor, has no friends so no one cares-
Brb, thinking about that time during my freshmen year of high school when I wrote an essay on how the lead singer of MDC was a personal hero of mine.

brb crawling under my bed out of vicarious embarrassment
Brb thinking about the time when I wrote about how Dave Mustaine is a personal hero of mine.
Srs? Damn. That’s even worse.
But he got kicked out of Metallica and still managed to become successful and make some of my favorite music!!!! An hero!!
brb Writing end-of-term (40% of final grade) paper positing the theory that Ice Cube isn’t a racist but speaks from the position of a fictional protagonist in an early 90s Los Angeles landscape where he wouldn’t have much choice otherwise (dead srs).
I… But…. That is to say…… Speechless :(
damn that blows my 11th grade english research paper about benjy from the sound and the fury as a christ figure foretelling the fall of old money in the coming depression right the fuck out of the water
brb, remembering making a powerpoint presentation about Slayer in 9th grade computer class
excellent work. This was pretty much me in 8th grade, except with warhammer 40k instead of whatever band.
That sounds slightly more embarrassing. Really hope you didn’t have a t-shirt of that you wore every day.
Not really. I don’t think stuff like that has ever been made, really. Only if Bolt Thrower ever printed up some tees with the original cover art for “Realm Of Chaos”, but that would’ve been awesome, via being Bolt Thrower.
That said, that was 14 years ago, and I’m about to sit down and paint me some Space Marines. No fucks given.
I’m so happy I didn’t understand any of that.
You’re lucky. :(
geek pride brah..
My High School Senior Thesis was about the use of violence in A Clockwork Orange, Fight Club and Johnny The Homicidal Maniac.
I’m all nostalgic now.
First is my dad’s all time favorite movie, second is one I love cause Edward Norton, and third is one a dude I know in grade school loved cause he was a kid in grade school.
9th grade public speaking class (roughly 1995 or 6), I made it a point at the first of the year to make every speech I did on Star Wars just to see if i could. I was 50% being ironic but still pretty embrassing. BRB trying to remember the topic of my ‘how-to’ and persuasive speeches.
this reminded me of stuff i did as a whiny 16 year old. people would have a field day if any of my assignments got out.
“Go easy on the ladies.”
If you can only mosh at 70%, you should only get paid 70%
i did a powerpoint on Between the Berried and Me in ’04. looking back on it now is the AIDS of my existence.
But Srs, were there any non gay school projects of this nature? Like stuff you did for this sort of assignment where you would not be embarrassed by it years later?
My school pays its teachers $100k minimum. FUCK YEAH RICH WHITES
In like 5 years, high school kids will be writing about how La Dispute and Defeater inspired them.
This is sadly probably already happening. Mostly in shitty art colleges by freshman who are gonna get very useless degrees.
The more time i spend laffin reading SYWH forums the more of a beta i become, I still didnt achieve n00dz :/
