overheard at school

embracing the ridiculousness of the things that students say...

I got a ton of questions today, so here you go…

-I teach both middle and high school (split schedule)

-Yes, you can submit things.

-Yes, I actually hear this stuff (unless it’s a submission, in which case, someone else heard it—or is at least saying they did.)

-Yes, I do have a main blog, but I’d like to keep that separate since I’m trying to keep things on here as anonymous as possible. Sorry.

-If you want to start a similar blog…I guess that’s cool.  I mean, post your own stuff, but I’m not going to stop you.

-As for the comment on sense of humor, my posts are just things that I find funny.     I realize that I probably have a very different sense of humor then a lot of the people I quote on here, and I can’t speak for the submissions too much—I just post them and occasionally add sarcastic comments.

-No, not everyone gets pregnant at my school (maybe a couple each year—nothing extraordinary).  A lot of these posts are submissions, too.  They’re not all from my school.

-I teach at an urban school with the students representing varying levels of ghetto-ness.

-I am female

Finally, hello new followers (so many of you!!), and for those of you who had compliments, thank you :)

It’s a shame no one ever wrote any of his plays down…now we’ll never know.

Music…you’re doing it wrong.

Anonymous asked: what made you decide to start posting these on tumblr?

I don’t know…I just figured that maybe there’d be an audience for all the stupid stuff I hear everyday.
