The senior prank when I graduated was to take the scantron machines and hide them in the bell tower with a big sign on the scantron room that said “check the bell tower.” The sign was the best part of the prank, because the year before us, the seniors had managed to lead a whole-ass horse to the top of the bell tower. They had to close the school to get the poor thing out. The Human Geography teacher saw it as me and my friends were walking by, and we just heard him mutter “not another f***cking horse.”
Awhile back, there was a senior class at my high school that put a baby cow on the top floor of the school. They deliberately chose to use a cow because apparently cows will go up stairs no problem, but they are TERRIFIED of walking down stairs😂
Apparently horses are the same - can go up the stairs, but not down. I think they had to use a crane or something. Thankfully we just put the scantron machines up there!
Devin isn't the first teacher to realize school was not being useful to a student. Dave Grohl's (Foo Fighters, Nirvana) mom, who was a teacher, let him drop out of high school to go on tour with a band.

I was that exact "drawing" kid. That's wild. I had a handful of teachers that passed me with a D whilst doing no schoolwork but drawing geometry problems, sections on anatomy etc. For them to decorate their classrooms. Almost 20 years ago and some of my artwork is still at Keene NH High School 🤙

Question for any teachers: When I was in middle and high school, it was a thing for teachers to send a student into the hall for however long (like a “time out”), if they were doing something inappropriate or whatever. Now that I’m an adult looking back on it, was that to punish the kid, stop the behavior, or the teacher’s way of not having to look at the damn kid for a few minutes? 😂😂
@@poodleloo391 that’s kinda why I asked! I remember thinking if I ever got sent into the hall (I was the kid that talked to my neighbor too much during lessons), it was more like free time and talking to my friends when they’d be walking the halls. It didn’t seem much of a punishment at all.
I remember when I was a junior in high school, I had “beef” with my Spanish teacher (no disrespect, I was a good kid & we would just poke fun at each other), after she overheard me say I didn’t think she was as “no nonsense” of a teacher as she thought she was (though I still liked her). My Spanish teacher was prepping to take ~15 kids on a trip to Europe over spring break. Somehow, during class, we managed to get her HORRIBLY off topic, discussing why so many beaches in Europe were topless. 10 minutes later, during independent study time, she’s walking around the room trying to sell candy bars (fundraising for the Europe trip, which I was a part of). This one day (because she knew I had some money on me), she kept pestering me to buy some candy. I looked her dead in the face, and in all seriousness, said “I would love to, but you know, with all this talk of topless beaches in Europe, I better make sure I’m in shape for this trip.” She told EVERY SINGLE ONE of her students that “someone in 6th period” (me) had said that. After time, everyone found out it was me. 10 years later, she’s a Facebook friend that likes just about everything I share. 😂
I had a class of students that were always ALWAYS late (since they had my class right after their lunch period), so I started pranking them- harmless stuff like I'd hide in the storage cabinet or behind my desk and spook them when they finally came in, would plant fake insects around the room etc.
My Psych teacher in my senior year of highschool had personalized awards, and I had him for two class periods in a row, so for Psych, he gave me an award that said "most likely to have groupies hang out in my room during break", and in my peer assistance and leadership class he gave me "most likely to do what's best for them" because I was having mental health struggles and I had to defer my admission to the college my dad wanted me to go to, which coincidentally was my teachers alumni. My pre-Calc teacher gave me best taste in music
3:30 someone posted a class link publicly on facebook!! two years ago when i was in virtual learning, my friend was in a french class where the zoom link got leaked (i wasn't in the class) and a bunch of strangers were in the waiting room and some used names of students in the class to get in. one person that actually got into the meeting just flashed the entire class and the french teacher had to end the meeting and the teachers lost trust in everyone. yes, this was middle school.
By the way “Mossed on” is a football term. Randy Moss is was a legendary wide receiver in the early 2000’s. He would jump up and snag the ball out of the defender’s hands and if you do it, it’s hyped up so much and everyone goes crazy.
Nice that virtual learning went well for you for the most part even though it was definitely challenging for those involved. Others weren’t as fortunate. I remember some teachers getting real mad about students turning the video off. I didn’t understand that though because some live in very rough distracting environments. I read some horror stories about teachers seeing students parents or the students themselves doing inappropriate things during zoom meetings
That is part of the problem, but there was others as well. It was mainly about engagement and being present. Adults getting trained online with camera off is likely to not pay attention. Except with kids money or actually doing the work isn't there to influence them. They often lack the discipline to not mess off given the opportunity. And it makes it easier for the teacher to gauge how the students are receiving the material. And for some people seeing blank screens and no feedback makes it extremely difficult to teach. So I understand why they wanted the cameras on but unfortunately since it's online they can't control the environment.
"During today's video class, I'm going to hold up some random items now and then, and you need to quietly write down what you see. At the end of your assignment, add the list of these items for ten percent of your grade. Don't share this with your classmates, as this is cheating."
I have literally watched all the episodes In that past three months I think this show is amazing seeing kinda behind l the scenes of a teacher. I asked all my teachers to watch y’all and they do now I go into class and I’m like did u watch that last TOD episode and we will talk about it in class it’s so funny. KEEP IT UP YALL!!!!!!
When the bathrooms were being destroyed last year my daughter's high school of 1700 kids was down to 1 bathroom for all of them until they could get the bathrooms functional again.
23:13 my daughter did this for a day she didn't want to crease her shoes and I was laughing at her so hard because of how she was walking come the next day she was in so much pain from not walking properly 😂
When my brother was 15, he and a group of his friends, got fire works and blew up a toilet in a portable at our old elementary school. My mom was so pissed. He owed almost $2,500 in damages just on his own. She made him work to pay it off and spend the night in jail, when all his friends posted bail. 🤣
My Freshman year of high school, some of the boys got hold of an M80 and lit it in the main boys bathroom. We heard this BOOM throughout the whole school, and when lunchtime came, they had to go to the locker room to use the ones in there. It was about $10,000 dollars worth of damage (1982-83) and the guys parents were pissed...AT THE SCHOOL FOR SUSPENDING HIM AND MAKING HIM PAY RESTITUTION!!! All of us were like "Dude, be thankful that they're not pressing charges too."
I have always had respect for teachers. Did I have a couple of teachers that didn't have the best attitude towards their students and in turn made me not have the best attitude towards them? Absolutely! But I always was respectful. Looking back now I realize that I was incredibly lucky that I had more enthusiastic, experienced, and lovely teachers than not. Teachers have one of the toughest most underrated jobs on the planet and I don't understand why they don't get paid more than they do. Especially now when kids are more disrespectful than ever and we live in a world where unfortunately they have to worry about keeping kids safe during a time of crisis. I remember when I was in school those "Children Are Our Future" posters were everywhere. Teachers contribute so much to their students. Not only what the kids learn but bc they spend almost more time with the kids during the school year then their parents do they lend a hand in shaping them into the young adults they become once they graduate. I really don't think that a lot of people think about how much work goes into being a Teacher having to manage their students, teach the curriculum, and get them ready for state testing all while trying to juggle their own private lives. I know people are going to say well that's what they chose to do...yeah which should speak even more about their character considering the responsibility and expectations placed on them now combined with the salary they make. To the teachers on this podcast I would just like to say how much I enjoy your show but also how much I appreciate everything you do. ❤️
Yeah the toilet story reminded me of my freshmen year. Someone had stolen two sinks from the boys bathroom (causing them to lock bathrooms) and there was a reward system, like the Wild West to find the culprit for 100 bucks. Never found them, but I always questioned how they got the sinks out.
Quick German 🇩🇪 lesson on the pronunciation of Devin's last name (from a Native German- not just my Great-Great-grandfather) There are two ways that Germans pronounce the ie/ei- Combo varying on the order. E-I: is pronounced like the English 'i'. As these two letters make a distinct sound, they are called "Zwielaut" in German (diphthong). Another example for is A-U I-E: is pronounced like the English 'e'. The 'E' is used as a so called "Dehnungsvokal" (idk the correct English term, but sth like stretched vowel) as the German 'i' already sounds like an English 'e'. Usually it is used at the end of a syllable, like in Siebold. So Devin was right all along. Hope I could help some of the needs out there...
When I was in high school they kept all the bathrooms locked except in the commons. It was horrible because with only five minutes between classes and the fact the school was huge it was impossible to get to wherever your locker was, to the bathroom when needed, and to class on time. I hated when teachers would make you take a tardy to go pee, which meant you could get detention just for not having time to go to the bathroom. The rigid teachers would make you be in your seat by the bell not the door, if was messed up.
I was doing school age childcare a few years ago and I TOLD the kids that I was going to get my hair done that weekend. Came in on Monday with blonde hair and they FREAKED OUT!! one kid kept saying "stranger danger!" the rest of the week.
This episode made me feel so much better. Lately I've been feeling like I shouldn't be teaching anymore because I just get so frustrated and the students have become so rude after the pandemic, with the backup from their overprotective parents who complain straight to the principal about the smallest things (like their child being told off for running around in the classroom or standing on top of desks...). But hearing these stories helps so much! I once had two students laugh at my handwriting on the board, so I wrote in cursive for the rest of the lesson - they never said anything again! The best, though, was the part about kids thinking they can whisper (but in my case it's lip sync). They pretend to read along but I'm like, you're in 6th grade and your voice has dropped, I can 100% hear whether you're speaking or not! 😂 Edit: I HATE having the period after PE! Sweaty, funky, preteens who are hormonal and tired make for a *fun* time...
Depending on where the kids are, the parents are STILL overprotective. That was going on WAY before the pandemic, when I started teaching at age 26 (I'm 53 now)
The creasing of the shooooe! I was on a family vation a few years ago, my brother was so afraid to crease his shoe and I accidentally stepped on it because it was on the floor of the car and I was trying to get out. He flipping screamed at me about how mad he was that I creased his shoe! He was twelve, he's a bit older now. But omg, why buy a pair of shoes-these were for basketball and working out-if you're not gonna use them? Maybe I'm an idiot, I don't know. 😅
My man is a tattoo artist and he didn’t graduate and he is soooo talented like crazy talented. We live in Las Vegas now and it’s so fun! And I read Harry Potter in 93-94 so crazy it’s still so popular
6:18 my 4th grade teacher did that because we were read the first Harry Potter book. The funniest part was the order our scores were in compared to the book. Ravenclaw which I was in had the highest points. Followed closely by Hufflepuff. Then Gryffindor. And Slytherin always had the lowest number.
I actually applaud teachers that will look at a student and say this is not for you let's figure out what is. Students that have no desire to be there know what they want to do like the kid that wanted to tattoo keeping them in class is hurting them and takes away from the kids that actually do want to be there and learn. My 8th grade math teacher had a very real talk with us one day and said college is not for everyone some of you will never go to college and you need to know that that is okay. That talk she had still sticks with me today and I'm 40
Mossed is when someone jumps over the defender to get the ball in football. Originated from Randy Moss the NFL Wide Receiver, he use to do that to defenders all the time bc of how tall he was and how high he could jump.
My friend told our teacher that she looked like a train wreck in 6th grade 😭😭😭 it was a joke, and she apologized, but it was so funny and my teacher mentioned it throughout the whole year
My school was experiencing such vandalism in the bathrooms, we have closed certain bathrooms, and only have the ones that have the best cameras on them open. Plus they put the soap in the hallways. Also have jail grade soap dispensers …
Just to say, I'm a 15 year old girl in Tennessee. The slang words you're all talking about from your childhood, just so happen to be some that I still use. I use the slang 'talking' or 'sprung' kinda like, Dude you're sprung on Charlie. But at the same time, my mother is British, so I use other slang words, like 'Oh I fancy mike.' or something. Along with that, I don't understand the 'modern' slang my age group uses. Other things like European words, which aren't exactly appropriate, but I'm sure you can picture the words I use compared to American slang. But yeah, being a kid listening to your podcasts, I can confirm that a lot of us are probably confused, but then the other completely understand everything you're speaking of. I love you all!!!!
So my classes senior prank was everyone who has a dog brought their dogs the week before finals and almost half the graduation class almost didn’t get to graduate
I was waiting for some one to break out, this is the list that never ends(instead of this is the song that never ends). Siebold 3:16 says you are out of my room, lol
My senior prank all the seniors had a full on bbq in the parking lot. And while the principal was out there getting her a burger we filled her office with balloons and confetti and then during lunch we hired a mariachi band to follow her around for the full hour.
Getting “mossed on” is when your playing football and a wide receiver jumps above/over the defender (in a dominating fashion) to make the catch. Kinda like getting dunked on in basketball. It’s a highlight segment on Fox NFL with Randy Moss.
Y’all are soooo relatable! You have me on the floor laughing this entire weekend! Keep speaking the truth ✊ why RUclips just showed me your content is beyond me… I have found my people 👏👏👏 I am a high school art teacher. 1 year elementary and this is my 7th year of high school 😅
@@brandilococo1890 I know it was mind boggling. Thankfully, both of my sons did well in HS. They both were in activities and sports. One of the funniest times though was when my youngest dropped an advanced history class in 11th grade and joined an on level class. The first afternoon he was so amazed at the students that were in his class. He was like, " Mom, I saw kids today that I haven't seen since 6th grade!") lol.
Dog Water!!! I taught middle school the last two years (after 11 years in HS, This year back to HS...). This year's 8th graders said "Dog water" a lot.
Miss does not mean crossover 😂😂, it means Moss like Randy Moss the Football player he used to “moss” people when he jumped and caught the ball over them
You know, adults are the same when they are in the "school setting" 😁 we would have annual testing at my workplace, where we have a 2-hour written exam and everything, and there would be about 100 people there from different locations. And every single time there would be people who ask what they are supposed to be doing RIGHT after the task has been given, who are late, who talk back when they are late, who argue about leaving their stuff and phones in the designated area (to prevent cheating), who fill in their exam form wrong even if it's very simple and they have just been given instructions on how to do it 😁
I didn’t help with my senior prank so I can’t remember what we did but it had to be approved so it wasn’t destructive. What I do remember is that my senior year we got a new principal and she let us saran wrap her to a chair at the main entrance of the school before classes started for the day. Either the resource officer or one of the assistant principals cut her out shortly before or after the bell rang. I don’t remember ever seeing the principal before her interact with students but she made a point on multiple occasions to interact with us and get feedback from us.
2 things 1. We had a basketball game against our biggest rivals and they took apart our sink in the boys guest locker room. 2. Another senior prank that happened not at my school but another 1 was they put pigs in the school they labeled them 1, 2, and 4. There were only 3 pigs and so they had to shut down the school to find the other 1 what they never did because there wasn't 1.
(12:48) I came to school really early one day and my English teacher was print something but she jammed the machine and just left and the only reason I know it was jammed is because my biology teacher came in like 10 mins later to print something and she was lowkey mad that it was jammed and had to call someone to un jam it
Man that slang drives me up the wall. I've got a home screen shortcut for urban dictionary on my phone bc I'm not about to feel like I'm visiting a foreign country when I walk in a classroom 🤣
Mossed on is a term used when tow players are playing a game of football and one player jumps of to catch the ball over another player in close range or contact
Me and my friends studied for 3 days and divised a plan. We watched a RUclips video and stole a toilet. We litterly put a blanket on it and dragged it out of the school. It was on the roof for like a week.
We had some students wrecked the doors in the bathroom stalls. So they just took the doors away. It took an article in the school newspaper from some girls to get them put back
I loved my sarcastic teachers. Had a Greek mythology professor that was like that. It was perfect for the lectures but for real life I wouldn’t be uncomfortable to ask questions but pay attention better
Back for seconds. I caught this at 31 minutes & it had 1k views. It has been 7 hours & there's 10k views. Insane! I'm also not a student nor a teacher so idk why I love this pod. You guys must be magic!
Idk if anyone’s explained it but a simp is someone who does over the top things for someone they like (regardless if they reciprocate the same feelings to OP) to the point where it feels silly E.g. Dude is a simp because he did all of his crush’s homework for a semester or if he calls her day and night or if he buys her every single plush mallow he can find because she loves them. I know its probably really normal for some people but its basically a term used for someone who’s at his SO or crush’s beck and call
My son is in 7th grade and soaks his white crocs in a bleach solution once a week. He also wanted these insert things that are supposed to keep shoes from creasing. That didn't happen. The ways these kids are about their shoes is insane.
This was not my senior prank, but it was a class's from a previous year. We have a huge hill ip to the school. Because of the hill there is an upper parking lot and a lower one. All the teachers would park in the top one, and all the students parked in the bottom on. As their senior prank, all the students got to the school early, and parked in all the spots. The teachers were mad as they trudged up that hill. However, when they got to the top, they found out all the students made them breakfast. When it came time for my grade to do a senior prank, I loved that one. I then had a year long sub, who wasn't even around at the time of the prank, tell me how mean those students were and how bad of a prank that was.
OKAY OKAY So my teacher at the end of the year gave out "rewards" and there was one "To ___ you got the award of, I heard it so you need to know it. Anytime you hear something, it makes itself alll around the school. How? Nobody knows, its like telephone but on an extreme."
For our muck up day (senior prank) someone put super glue in the keyholes for the doors. For my first muck up day experience (as a year 7 student) my brother warned me about it and I went to school wearing a raincoat (in summer) because the seniors had water guns and they moved the lockers to make the hallways mazes.
I don't remember what grade I was in, but the seniors decided to do a senior prank on the day of our EOC. They super glued all the classrooms shut and everyone just had to sit around and wait to take the tests. I was soooo mad. It was supposed to be a half day and I was there all day!
When I was in middle school, kids would take they’re lunch and go into the bathroom and eat on the floor with their friends. And later a few kids got sick.
Oh where to begin...My new one is kids not being able to find anything on Google Classroom. It is labeled a week at a time (as the topic) and within the week each lesson is labeled by day and posted in the correct order. When I have them take their computers out, I even say, 'Find Friday, Sept. 2." They STILL can't find it!!!!!
Simping is doing to much for someone or something you like. Giving to much attention to someone usually towards someone who doesn’t reciprocate those feelings.

I looked her dead in the face, and in all seriousness, said “I would love to, but you know, with all this talk of topless beaches in Europe, I better make sure I’m in shape for this trip.”
She told EVERY SINGLE ONE of her students that “someone in 6th period” (me) had said that. After time, everyone found out it was me.
10 years later, she’s a Facebook friend that likes just about everything I share. 😂
What
I had a class of students that were always ALWAYS late (since they had my class right after their lunch period), so I started pranking them- harmless stuff like I'd hide in the storage cabinet or behind my desk and spook them when they finally came in, would plant fake insects around the room etc.
My Psych teacher in my senior year of highschool had personalized awards, and I had him for two class periods in a row, so for Psych, he gave me an award that said "most likely to have groupies hang out in my room during break", and in my peer assistance and leadership class he gave me "most likely to do what's best for them" because I was having mental health struggles and I had to defer my admission to the college my dad wanted me to go to, which coincidentally was my teachers alumni.
My pre-Calc teacher gave me best taste in music
3:30 someone posted a class link publicly on facebook!! two years ago when i was in virtual learning, my friend was in a french class where the zoom link got leaked (i wasn't in the class) and a bunch of strangers were in the waiting room and some used names of students in the class to get in. one person that actually got into the meeting just flashed the entire class and the french teacher had to end the meeting and the teachers lost trust in everyone. yes, this was middle school.
By the way “Mossed on” is a football term. Randy Moss is was a legendary wide receiver in the early 2000’s. He would jump up and snag the ball out of the defender’s hands and if you do it, it’s hyped up so much and everyone goes crazy.
Nice that virtual learning went well for you for the most part even though it was definitely challenging for those involved. Others weren’t as fortunate. I remember some teachers getting real mad about students turning the video off. I didn’t understand that though because some live in very rough distracting environments. I read some horror stories about teachers seeing students parents or the students themselves doing inappropriate things during zoom meetings
That is part of the problem, but there was others as well. It was mainly about engagement and being present. Adults getting trained online with camera off is likely to not pay attention. Except with kids money or actually doing the work isn't there to influence them. They often lack the discipline to not mess off given the opportunity. And it makes it easier for the teacher to gauge how the students are receiving the material. And for some people seeing blank screens and no feedback makes it extremely difficult to teach. So I understand why they wanted the cameras on but unfortunately since it's online they can't control the environment.
"During today's video class, I'm going to hold up some random items now and then, and you need to quietly write down what you see. At the end of your assignment, add the list of these items for ten percent of your grade. Don't share this with your classmates, as this is cheating."
Yaaaaaaaay! I can confirm that I've fallen in love with this podcast!!! I'm so obsessed🥰
This podcast is literally everything 😂
For real though…
For real lol!!
Ehehhehe
I have literally watched all the episodes In that past three months I think this show is amazing seeing kinda behind l the scenes of a teacher. I asked all my teachers to watch y’all and they do now I go into class and I’m like did u watch that last TOD episode and we will talk about it in class it’s so funny. KEEP IT UP YALL!!!!!!
When the bathrooms were being destroyed last year my daughter's high school of 1700 kids was down to 1 bathroom for all of them until they could get the bathrooms functional again.
I am so glad I was long out of school before Tik Tok
23:13 my daughter did this for a day she didn't want to crease her shoes and I was laughing at her so hard because of how she was walking come the next day she was in so much pain from not walking properly 😂
When my brother was 15, he and a group of his friends, got fire works and blew up a toilet in a portable at our old elementary school. My mom was so pissed. He owed almost $2,500 in damages just on his own. She made him work to pay it off and spend the night in jail, when all his friends posted bail. 🤣
My Freshman year of high school, some of the boys got hold of an M80 and lit it in the main boys bathroom. We heard this BOOM throughout the whole school, and when lunchtime came, they had to go to the locker room to use the ones in there. It was about $10,000 dollars worth of damage (1982-83) and the guys parents were pissed...AT THE SCHOOL FOR SUSPENDING HIM AND MAKING HIM PAY RESTITUTION!!! All of us were like "Dude, be thankful that they're not pressing charges too."
I have always had respect for teachers. Did I have a couple of teachers that didn't have the best attitude towards their students and in turn made me not have the best attitude towards them? Absolutely! But I always was respectful. Looking back now I realize that I was incredibly lucky that I had more enthusiastic, experienced, and lovely teachers than not. Teachers have one of the toughest most underrated jobs on the planet and I don't understand why they don't get paid more than they do. Especially now when kids are more disrespectful than ever and we live in a world where unfortunately they have to worry about keeping kids safe during a time of crisis. I remember when I was in school those "Children Are Our Future" posters were everywhere. Teachers contribute so much to their students. Not only what the kids learn but bc they spend almost more time with the kids during the school year then their parents do they lend a hand in shaping them into the young adults they become once they graduate. I really don't think that a lot of people think about how much work goes into being a Teacher having to manage their students, teach the curriculum, and get them ready for state testing all while trying to juggle their own private lives. I know people are going to say well that's what they chose to do...yeah which should speak even more about their character considering the responsibility and expectations placed on them now combined with the salary they make. To the teachers on this podcast I would just like to say how much I enjoy your show but also how much I appreciate everything you do. ❤️
Yeah the toilet story reminded me of my freshmen year. Someone had stolen two sinks from the boys bathroom (causing them to lock bathrooms) and there was a reward system, like the Wild West to find the culprit for 100 bucks. Never found them, but I always questioned how they got the sinks out.
One of my favorite podcasts!!!! Keep them coming ❤️
I loves this on RUclips shorts until I realized it was a whole show- and then I loved it even more
Quick German 🇩🇪 lesson on the pronunciation of Devin's last name (from a Native German- not just my Great-Great-grandfather)
There are two ways that Germans pronounce the ie/ei- Combo varying on the order.
E-I: is pronounced like the English 'i'. As these two letters make a distinct sound, they are called "Zwielaut" in German (diphthong). Another example for is A-U
I-E: is pronounced like the English 'e'. The 'E' is used as a so called "Dehnungsvokal" (idk the correct English term, but sth like stretched vowel) as the German 'i' already sounds like an English 'e'. Usually it is used at the end of a syllable, like in Siebold.
So Devin was right all along.
Hope I could help some of the needs out there...
When I was in high school they kept all the bathrooms locked except in the commons. It was horrible because with only five minutes between classes and the fact the school was huge it was impossible to get to wherever your locker was, to the bathroom when needed, and to class on time. I hated when teachers would make you take a tardy to go pee, which meant you could get detention just for not having time to go to the bathroom. The rigid teachers would make you be in your seat by the bell not the door, if was messed up.
I was doing school age childcare a few years ago and I TOLD the kids that I was going to get my hair done that weekend. Came in on Monday with blonde hair and they FREAKED OUT!! one kid kept saying "stranger danger!" the rest of the week.
This episode made me feel so much better. Lately I've been feeling like I shouldn't be teaching anymore because I just get so frustrated and the students have become so rude after the pandemic, with the backup from their overprotective parents who complain straight to the principal about the smallest things (like their child being told off for running around in the classroom or standing on top of desks...). But hearing these stories helps so much! I once had two students laugh at my handwriting on the board, so I wrote in cursive for the rest of the lesson - they never said anything again! The best, though, was the part about kids thinking they can whisper (but in my case it's lip sync). They pretend to read along but I'm like, you're in 6th grade and your voice has dropped, I can 100% hear whether you're speaking or not! 😂
Edit: I HATE having the period after PE! Sweaty, funky, preteens who are hormonal and tired make for a *fun* time...
Depending on where the kids are, the parents are STILL overprotective. That was going on WAY before the pandemic, when I started teaching at age 26 (I'm 53 now)
The creasing of the shooooe! I was on a family vation a few years ago, my brother was so afraid to crease his shoe and I accidentally stepped on it because it was on the floor of the car and I was trying to get out. He flipping screamed at me about how mad he was that I creased his shoe! He was twelve, he's a bit older now. But omg, why buy a pair of shoes-these were for basketball and working out-if you're not gonna use them? Maybe I'm an idiot, I don't know. 😅
My man is a tattoo artist and he didn’t graduate and he is soooo talented like crazy talented. We live in Las Vegas now and it’s so fun! And I read Harry Potter in 93-94 so crazy it’s still so popular
omg I was literally binge watching yalls podcast thank the lord for a new episode
Lol I love this channel because it has my favorite teachers I wish I had!
Me too
6:18 my 4th grade teacher did that because we were read the first Harry Potter book. The funniest part was the order our scores were in compared to the book.
Ravenclaw which I was in had the highest points. Followed closely by Hufflepuff. Then Gryffindor. And Slytherin always had the lowest number.
I actually applaud teachers that will look at a student and say this is not for you let's figure out what is. Students that have no desire to be there know what they want to do like the kid that wanted to tattoo keeping them in class is hurting them and takes away from the kids that actually do want to be there and learn. My 8th grade math teacher had a very real talk with us one day and said college is not for everyone some of you will never go to college and you need to know that that is okay. That talk she had still sticks with me today and I'm 40
Mossed is when someone jumps over the defender to get the ball in football. Originated from Randy Moss the NFL Wide Receiver, he use to do that to defenders all the time bc of how tall he was and how high he could jump.
Oh that's cool. I didn't know that
My friend told our teacher that she looked like a train wreck in 6th grade 😭😭😭 it was a joke, and she apologized, but it was so funny and my teacher mentioned it throughout the whole year
My school was experiencing such vandalism in the bathrooms, we have closed certain bathrooms, and only have the ones that have the best cameras on them open. Plus they put the soap in the hallways. Also have jail grade soap dispensers …
Just to say, I'm a 15 year old girl in Tennessee. The slang words you're all talking about from your childhood, just so happen to be some that I still use. I use the slang 'talking' or 'sprung' kinda like, Dude you're sprung on Charlie. But at the same time, my mother is British, so I use other slang words, like 'Oh I fancy mike.' or something. Along with that, I don't understand the 'modern' slang my age group uses. Other things like European words, which aren't exactly appropriate, but I'm sure you can picture the words I use compared to American slang. But yeah, being a kid listening to your podcasts, I can confirm that a lot of us are probably confused, but then the other completely understand everything you're speaking of. I love you all!!!!
So my classes senior prank was everyone who has a dog brought their dogs the week before finals and almost half the graduation class almost didn’t get to graduate
XD cute chaos!
As an educator I would have zero issue with this as a "prank"
@@desslou talk to my hs admin cuz they did because one dog pooped in the main lobby but the kid cleaned it up
@@Matthewmistcloud there are probably reasons I'm not thinking about, like the possibility for injury to the dogs or other students.
Yea but they gotta worry about people who have allergies and someone may get bit or something and then they would be worried about getting blamed.
I was waiting for some one to break out, this is the list that never ends(instead of this is the song that never ends).
Siebold 3:16 says you are out of my room, lol
l love bri he laugh makes me smile
My senior prank all the seniors had a full on bbq in the parking lot. And while the principal was out there getting her a burger we filled her office with balloons and confetti and then during lunch we hired a mariachi band to follow her around for the full hour.
"What a burnnnn" was a thing and now my grandkids are saying "What a burn". I was shocked but happy about the new kids 9 and 7 saying what a burn!
And we bykeee! 1st week of school down for my middle schooler 🙌🏾
Don’t ever stop this podcast lol!
"Moss'd on" - From ESPN when a receiver jumps and catches a pass over a defender
Frfr as a former highschool student and now a freshmen college student I love them!
Getting “mossed on” is when your playing football and a wide receiver jumps above/over the defender (in a dominating fashion) to make the catch. Kinda like getting dunked on in basketball.
It’s a highlight segment on Fox NFL with Randy Moss.
Y’all are soooo relatable! You have me on the floor laughing this entire weekend! Keep speaking the truth ✊ why RUclips just showed me your content is beyond me… I have found my people 👏👏👏 I am a high school art teacher. 1 year elementary and this is my 7th year of high school 😅
20 teachers 😳 we had 8 teachers and like 6 additional staff at the HS I graduated from I couldn't imagine being in a school with 100 teachers 😲
Dang must of been a small school.
@@tindee3052 my graduating class was maybe 20 but even the hs my twin sister went to in the same county had only maybe 50 teachers
My son had 713 kids in his graduating class, over 3,000 kids total at the school. I am sure they had at least 100 teachers.
@@ktay2124 😲😲😲 I simply don't think I wouldve survived a HS that big
@@brandilococo1890 I know it was mind boggling. Thankfully, both of my sons did well in HS. They both were in activities and sports. One of the funniest times though was when my youngest dropped an advanced history class in 11th grade and joined an on level class. The first afternoon he was so amazed at the students that were in his class. He was like, " Mom, I saw kids today that I haven't seen since 6th grade!") lol.
I love this podcast it's so entertaining
This is THE BEST podcast I have listened to and I listen to quite a few!
Dog Water!!! I taught middle school the last two years (after 11 years in HS, This year back to HS...). This year's 8th graders said "Dog water" a lot.
Miss does not mean crossover 😂😂, it means Moss like Randy Moss the Football player he used to “moss” people when he jumped and caught the ball over them
You know, adults are the same when they are in the "school setting" 😁 we would have annual testing at my workplace, where we have a 2-hour written exam and everything, and there would be about 100 people there from different locations. And every single time there would be people who ask what they are supposed to be doing RIGHT after the task has been given, who are late, who talk back when they are late, who argue about leaving their stuff and phones in the designated area (to prevent cheating), who fill in their exam form wrong even if it's very simple and they have just been given instructions on how to do it 😁
I didn’t help with my senior prank so I can’t remember what we did but it had to be approved so it wasn’t destructive. What I do remember is that my senior year we got a new principal and she let us saran wrap her to a chair at the main entrance of the school before classes started for the day. Either the resource officer or one of the assistant principals cut her out shortly before or after the bell rang. I don’t remember ever seeing the principal before her interact with students but she made a point on multiple occasions to interact with us and get feedback from us.
2 things
1. We had a basketball game against our biggest rivals and they took apart our sink in the boys guest locker room.
2. Another senior prank that happened not at my school but another 1 was they put pigs in the school they labeled them 1, 2, and 4. There were only 3 pigs and so they had to shut down the school to find the other 1 what they never did because there wasn't 1.
(12:48) I came to school really early one day and my English teacher was print something but she jammed the machine and just left and the only reason I know it was jammed is because my biology teacher came in like 10 mins later to print something and she was lowkey mad that it was jammed and had to call someone to un jam it
I love the Stone Cold and DDT references!🤣
From my German husband "see-bold is correct. It would be cy-bold if it was spelled Seibold"
It’s my second week of school I’m in 10th grade and I’m loving it! Hope you guys are well ❤
How Lauran said that her district was like a speck, well, it reminded me that one of the hallways at my high school is 1/4 of a mile long XD
At 8:42 as a student it can also be annoying to some students we get clear instructions and 🙋🏻like why you gotta hold the class up for that? 😭
Man that slang drives me up the wall. I've got a home screen shortcut for urban dictionary on my phone bc I'm not about to feel like I'm visiting a foreign country when I walk in a classroom 🤣
10:57 teachers that rost students back are some of my fav teachers it builds relationships with the students
As a current college student, I LIVE for these 🤣❤️
As a 21 year old I understand current slang and “old” slang. I grew up right between and with siblings like 9 years older than me.
Mossed on is a term used when tow players are playing a game of football and one player jumps of to catch the ball over another player in close range or contact
Me and my friends studied for 3 days and divised a plan. We watched a RUclips video and stole a toilet. We litterly put a blanket on it and dragged it out of the school. It was on the roof for like a week.
We had some students wrecked the doors in the bathroom stalls. So they just took the doors away. It took an article in the school newspaper from some girls to get them put back
Last year, kids at my school took a soap dispenser from the boys bathroom, but staff didn’t replace until after 3 months of it not being there
I loved my sarcastic teachers. Had a Greek mythology professor that was like that. It was perfect for the lectures but for real life I wouldn’t be uncomfortable to ask questions but pay attention better
Back for seconds. I caught this at 31 minutes & it had 1k views. It has been 7 hours & there's 10k views. Insane! I'm also not a student nor a teacher so idk why I love this pod. You guys must be magic!
Idk if anyone’s explained it but a simp is someone who does over the top things for someone they like (regardless if they reciprocate the same feelings to OP) to the point where it feels silly
E.g. Dude is a simp because he did all of his crush’s homework for a semester or if he calls her day and night or if he buys her every single plush mallow he can find because she loves them. I know its probably really normal for some people but its basically a term used for someone who’s at his SO or crush’s beck and call
This make me feel like I’m in the teachers lounge!!!!💪🏾👑🔥🔥🔥
My Sophomore year (could've been Junior year) the senior prank was putting super glue into the keyholes
honestly, it's good that Devin told that kid to pursue his dream of being a tattoo artist
My son is in 7th grade and soaks his white crocs in a bleach solution once a week. He also wanted these insert things that are supposed to keep shoes from creasing. That didn't happen. The ways these kids are about their shoes is insane.
This was not my senior prank, but it was a class's from a previous year. We have a huge hill ip to the school. Because of the hill there is an upper parking lot and a lower one. All the teachers would park in the top one, and all the students parked in the bottom on. As their senior prank, all the students got to the school early, and parked in all the spots. The teachers were mad as they trudged up that hill. However, when they got to the top, they found out all the students made them breakfast. When it came time for my grade to do a senior prank, I loved that one. I then had a year long sub, who wasn't even around at the time of the prank, tell me how mean those students were and how bad of a prank that was.
OKAY OKAY So my teacher at the end of the year gave out "rewards" and there was one "To ___ you got the award of, I heard it so you need to know it. Anytime you hear something, it makes itself alll around the school. How? Nobody knows, its like telephone but on an extreme."
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY OF YOUR PODCAST!!!
The walking to not crease shoes . . . Drives me insane. Had the same exact conversation. Also why are you wearing those to shop class???
I am a student and I still find these hilarious
For our muck up day (senior prank) someone put super glue in the keyholes for the doors. For my first muck up day experience (as a year 7 student) my brother warned me about it and I went to school wearing a raincoat (in summer) because the seniors had water guns and they moved the lockers to make the hallways mazes.
I don't remember what grade I was in, but the seniors decided to do a senior prank on the day of our EOC. They super glued all the classrooms shut and everyone just had to sit around and wait to take the tests. I was soooo mad. It was supposed to be a half day and I was there all day!
Missed is also in reference to Randy Moss! And how we would catch the ball.
Love watching these
8:56 This is coming from a student, we zoned out and we’re paying attention to something else.
When I was in middle school, kids would take they’re lunch and go into the bathroom and eat on the floor with their friends. And later a few kids got sick.
I work at a K-12 alternative school and we do staff v students kick ball games. So much fun and the kids never win. lol 😂
Lol! The makeup thing. One day they decided I was an imposter doppelgänger Ms. P. That was a great feeling when I didn’t have makeup on.
Oh where to begin...My new one is kids not being able to find anything on Google Classroom. It is labeled a week at a time (as the topic) and within the week each lesson is labeled by day and posted in the correct order. When I have them take their computers out, I even say, 'Find Friday, Sept. 2." They STILL can't find it!!!!!
Simping is doing to much for someone or something you like. Giving to much attention to someone usually towards someone who doesn’t reciprocate those feelings.
90% of high school students probably joined the call without putting their screen on and went to sleep
Yes exactly what my students did.
I love this podcast so much! ❤️❤️❤️
