Wanna Watch A Teacher Lose Her Goddamn Marbles On A Student?

When I first saw this video, I was wondering what the fuck ol’ Kevin could have done to warrant this type of reaction. Was he talking in class? Passing notes? *Gasp* Chewing gum? And then I thought about all of my friends that are teachers and how they have weathered over the years of teaching kids. That’s when I realized this woman going Beast Mode and screaming like a banshee was not from one thing Kevin or anybody else in that class did. You don’t freak the fuck out right in somebody’s face and flip a table like Bobby Knight because one shitty student was being shitty. That type of reaction is from spending decades in the system and dealing with shitty kids every single year. There were a million Kevins and Kristens that pissed this lady off and this Kevin was the recipient of every eye roll, brush off, and piece of back talk from all of her years in the education system. Whatever Kevin did was just the straw the broke this teacher’s insane membrane. That rant about there being rules goddammit was probably lodged in her brain for years like Leia’s message to Obi-Wan inside R2-D2 and Kevin’s bullshit finally sprung it loose.

For everyone older than the #GoPresGo crowd, think about how shitty you and your friends could be in high school on a given day as the hormones race through your body while thinking you have life figured out. Now imagine dealing with like 100 different versions of you every single day for every single year. And then next year, you get a new batch of assholes that you have never met to teach. Sisyphus level tragedy. Granted they all get the summers off while the rest of the world grinds through 75 and sunny. But still, the fact every teacher holds some type of this animosity inside every single day has me happy I chose blogging* instead of teaching.

*JK. You don’t choose the blogging life. The blogging life chooses you.
