School takes forever, man. It's over a decade of constantly showing up, being told what to do, doing most of it, and staring out the window. But in that time, we all have moments where we heard someone say something so dumb that we couldn't stay quiet about it. Teachers, however, had to be tight-lipped about all the stupid-ass things they heard us say. Right now there are thousands of functional adults walking around doing totally fine because when they were in 4th grade, a teacher never pointed at their face and laughed at them for saying something stupid. Sure, there are many adults who are functional despite having experienced exactly that, but it's still not a good time.
Kids are so dumb that they're pretty much a different species. So we can't blame teachers or noticing the absurd things they do and say. We remember how dumb we were. We remember all those times a kid said "organism" wrong. It happened a lot. And honestly it's a miracle that teachers can manage to get through the day.
