class

George Pointon took to twitter to matter-of-factly address the comedic skills of his young class. He ascertained that some overly relied on dirty stuff, some couldn't read the room and others had great timing. Kids don't make the greatest comics, but they also don't make great much anything else, as evidenced by this proof that kids are weird and dumb.

Twitter user baileyanastas tells the story of a friend who went above and beyond for their extremely anxious friend in class. We have friends who say that they would "die for you, bro," but what about the ones who would risk looking really dumb for you? That's a mark of some good friendship.

We were all dumb in school, but some kids just showed it better. Whether it was a kid trying to wing their way through plagiarized material, some dude doing a wildly inappropriate and incredibly personal PowerPoint, or even a teacher trying to get through a horribly ill-conceived assembly, we've all seen some real embarrassing presentations. The thing is, people you knew from school on't really change a lot, and that can lead to some really awkward moments at high school reunions. Sometimes these school events get so bad they're eventually referred to as the school's "incident."

Many Americans still feel like they're trapped in a system that they have no control over, even though they're told they live in the greatest, most free nation in the history of ever. It may come as a surprise to some that the United States isn't the only country where its citizens are told that they live in the greatest country on the planet. For some outside perspective, here are some American problems people are too European to understand.

Due to the Coronavirus, classes across the world have shifted to the online realm. From there, it's been a rollercoaster of occasionally technologically challenged teachers trying to navigate online classrooms via resources like Zoom; and then students acting like scoundrels because they think that the webcam and/or microphone is off. Now more than ever, it is key to ensure that that is the case. 

This fed up student decided they wanted to teach some lazy classmates a lesson. So, they decided to put together a fake essay, and next thing you know, some rattled students are confronting the consequences of not even being able to cheat correctly. 

You think if they don't understand it that they'll use that as a reason to not believe it? Flat Earthers have their hands full with this one. This is better than when Flat Earthers experimentally proved themselves wrong! See here.

Many of us can thank our teachers for inspiring us to embrace our passions and take on careers that we didn't think we'd achieve in our wildest dreams. That's some teachers though. Other teachers are negligent, selfish bullies who have no respect for other people, and have no desire to help kids learn. Sometimes kids are dumb, but that's not necessarily the teacher's fault. These teachers here though are grade-A douchebags.

People's reunions serve as sort of a life check-in to evaluate how well their old classmates did with life. Some people pull a total 180 after high school. Some people stay on their BS and end up doing exactly as you'd expect. If, for whatever reason your mind is still on high school, then here are some of people's cringiest high school moments.

This is the dream scenario for any group project, when people are acting like A+ assholes. In this case, we're dealing with some foolish students who thought they could make a clean getaway with another student's hard-earned work. Queue the absolutely necessary and righteous fail/win! And if that didn't get you inspired, check out the time this student gave a Lord of the Rings inspired speech before a test, here. Cause that will NEVER get old. 

As nice as it would be to fix our agriculture system by having a box of blob-shaped apples sent to your house every month, apparently things aren't as easy as that. Dr. Dara Taber elaborates on the concept of food waste in America.

It's one thing to be laughed at by your classmates, but when your teacher joins in, you know you're truly stupid.

This student channeled all their pent-up creative energy into not following their assignment's rules. 

Probably the most wholesome cookbook you've ever seen. The kids who wrote it are a mystery, but that doesn't mean we can't recreate the recipes to honor these young culinary masterminds. Some recipes seem harder than others. How much flour is 18 minutes of flour?

People are always bound to surprise you. 

Students these days are lucky to be getting these kinds of wildly creative extra credit test questions. Talk about a nice way to wrap up an otherwise soul-grinding, brain-pulverizing test.
