With Online Classes? Then These Memes Will Look Very Familiar.

What a year it’s been…

It seems like just when 2020 has knocked us down for the count, another huge wave of misery comes crashing down on our heads.

And for students and teachers, this year has been especially rough. So we want to do something special for you.

We want you to set aside your homework and your lesson plans, kick your feet up, and enjoy some funny memes about how miserable distance learning actually is! Hey, if you can’t laugh, you’ll cry, and we don’t want to see any tears today.

So enjoy these memes and provide yourself with a little comic relief!

1. Do you guys like my dog?

This is honestly the best part of Zoom.

2. The college life.

It’s not all it’s cracked up to be these days.

3. Will you please get a new Internet carrier?

You’re ruining it for the rest of us!

4. Gimme that link again, por favor.

And do it all over again in five minutes.

5. How’d that work out?

I’ll be right back!

6. College 101 these days.

Are you learning a lot?

7. A big difference, huh?

Kids just grow up so fast these days.

8. The story of all our lives.

Hopefully not for much longer!

9. This is agonizing!

Please, make it stop!

So keep up the good work!

A Mom’s Totally Extra Virtual “School Announcements” Are Making Parents LOL

All of us are doing our best right now as we toggle back and forth between real and virtual school. Teachers, parents, kids, employers – we’re all putting on those fake smiles and making it work every single day.

Some parents are looking for ways to keep things interesting, and going the extra mile to keep everyone – probably themselves most of all – engaged and entertained.

Which is, I assume, how this mother started coming up with virtual “school announcements” for her house every morning.

Deb Plafker – aka Principal Mom – is from Danville, CA. She and her daughter began sharing daily morning announcements for her son Max, a senior who is learning from home at the moment.

The announcements have a spoof style, with fun takes like “drama is canceled for the day because your sister is providing enough drama for the day.”

@jplaf

announcements are back! #fyp #foryou #foryoupage #principalmom #principlemom #momsoftiktok #thecoldestwater @thecoldestwater #highschool #SAT #viral

♬ original sound – Jamie Plafker

Their daily national anthem is “Baby Shark,” and her daughter Jamie, who’s 22, is totally on board for the madness.

“We were making jokes about all the funny things that would happen during this online coronavirus school time. I started writing them all down and said, ‘We have to put this on TikTok.’”

And that, my friends, is how Principal Mom was born.

@jplaf

When her husband is the only parent at back to school night #fyp #foryou #foryoupage #principlemom #momsoftiktok #teachersoftiktok #backtoschool #lol

♬ original sound – Jamie Plafker

Jamie shares the videos on TikTok, and people straight up love them – probably because they’re so relatable, but also because we’re all trying to laugh to keep from crying.

Anything that helps us do that, collectively, is ok in my book.

I’m guessing that after you become one of their 4 million views (and counting), you’re going to agree.

People Shared the Biggest Scandals That Took Place at Their Schools

Here are the two big scandals that I remember happening when I was in high school…

One, a kid got stabbed in the hallway during a fight my Freshman year.

And two, a girl got pregnant Senior year and mysteriously never came back to school one day…that’s all I can really think of right now. I’m sure there was a lot more going on, but that’s what I was aware of at the time.

But we’re about to hear a bunch of crazy stories from high school on Twitter, thanks to this person who threw the big question out there.

Let’s get scandalous, shall we?

1. A secret affair.

Well, I guess it worked out?

2. That is insane.

More details, please!

3. Bet he didn’t see that coming.

Rubber stamped!

4. You definitely couldn’t do this anymore.

You’d be in deep sh*t if you tried a stunt like this.

5. True ’80s style.

Kinda weird…

6. The Branch Davidians.

That’s pretty nuts.

7. That is terrible.

A true crime story.

8. The hitman and the nun.

This person needs to write a book.

9. Don’t talk about it.

But everyone knew…

10. An odd turn of events.

Shouldn’t have taken that coat.

11. That sure is awkward.

Kids, meet your new stepmother.

How about you?

What was the biggest scandal that took place at your school?

Give us all the dirt in the comments! Thanks in advance!

Parents Who Have Totally Had It With Distance Learning

Distance learning is one of those things no one asked for, but everyone is getting it these days anyway. Like socks for Father’s Day, or a gift certificate for a pedicure somewhere that’s not your place, if you’re a woman.

We’re all doing our best, which is better some days than others – but these 18 parents are really just ready to chuck it all right in the bin.

18. A truer GIF has never been shared.

Screaming is accurate, too.

17. We hear what we hear.

It’s probably not what the teacher said.

Distance learning from memes

16. I didn’t know we had to dress for school, too.

I haven’t dressed for anything in months.

15. We were hoping to keep that a secret for awhile longer.

Not forever. But longer.

14. I have never felt so old.

Good thing I’m Gen X, and therefore do not care.

13. Precious, aren’t they?

I wish I could tell people to mute themselves in real life.

12. Imagine feeling this so hard you wrote it on your car.

I mean, maybe you don’t have to imagine.

11. It had to be someone.

Thanks for taking the hit.

10. Only one kid is allowed to freak out at once.

I’m sorry, that’s just the rule.

9. Spoiler alert: they’re never leaving.

The “breaks” aren’t for you.

8. Probably the best you could hope for, honestly.

At least it doesn’t include profanity.

7. We had fun though, right?

Honey? Right?

6. Just mind your business, full stop.

It’s the only way to go.

5. Every dang time.

Why are they like this?

4. Who knocks on the door?

That shouldn’t be allowed currently.

3. Is that all?

Because it feels like at least double.

2. Wait some people are sleeping?

How are they making that happen?

1. Sometimes you have to butt in.

There’s just no other option.

How is distance learning going for you?

If you can tell us without weeping into your wine glass, please do!

We’re all trying our hardest right now to patch together something that looks like a normal life. We’re doing online or hybrid school, we’re working from home, we’re wearing masks, we’re explaining as best as can to our kids.

Humor is one of the only ways we’re keeping it together, though – that old adage, if you don’t laugh, you’ll cry seems truer than ever.

11. A romance for the ages.

Don’t we all.

1. I mean maybe you still are.

If you taught him to be so clever.

I’m dying, and thankful that we’re still all able to laugh.

But I think we’ll all still be thankful and ready when things finally go back to “normal.”

People Share Their Really Bad Teacher Stories

There are more good teachers than bad ones, but as with every profession, there are a certain number who have burned out, eaten from the wrong apple, or just plain never should have gone into teaching to begin with.

And while we’re usually all about praising the amazing teachers who keep our lives running smoothly, today we’re showcasing some Twitter responses to the question: tell me your bad teacher story.

11. The best revenge is living well.

But seriously who says that to a kid?

10. I actually think this is illegal.

Also, gross.

9. This is straight up appalling.

What on earth is wrong with straight men??

8.That is six kinds of wrong.

I hope her mother went off.

7. I cannot believe this is a thing that still happens.

Prison is the place for them.

6. She just…denied a medical condition?

Like? I don’t even know what to say.

5. Even if you don’t get it at home…

Why does anyone think this is okay?

4. This makes my blood boil.

Punishing kids for being too good?

3. I want to have words with this woman.

None of them are nice.

2. I suppose there are probably rules about toys and school.

Lame rules.

1. That’s not how biology works.

This man was a TEACHER.

I’m appalled, though I’m not sure why I’m surprised.

10 Teachers Who Are Very, Very Bad at Their Jobs

Usually, you hear about all of the great, amazing, above-and-beyond stuff that teachers do in service of our kids’ educations every single day.

In every job, though, you will find the people who are definitely in it for the wrong reasons, and it’s appalling to read about the kind of damage they can do.

We’re supposed to be able to trust our teachers, but these 10 kids found out far too early that’s not always true.

10. Why do some people think they know better than doctors?

Like…so many people.

9. It’s called consequences.

No sympathy here.

8. Ask her how many languages she speaks.

I’m guessing one.

7. I’d say that earns the kid a pass.

That teacher should get his or her a$s kicked.

6. I would like to smack this lady straight upside her head.

How many Black kids have similar experiences?

5. What on earth is this nonsense?

Except truly awful?

4. I wonder if she brought some aloe for the burn?

This had to be so satisfying.

3. Both of these are bad.

Only one is criminal, though.

2. What a trash human.

Throw him away.

1. It’s disgusting.

I’m sad that it’s also not uncommon.

I want to find some of these people and slap them silly!

Share your terrible teacher story with us in the comments – I want to be BIG mad.

Graduated Alone

Eva Mae Bradbury was the only member of her graduating class at the public school in Ada, Kansas. The school nevertheless put on a full commencement program for her, attended by 150 people, which was about the entire population of Ada.
