Just Your Average Middle School Day

K had a substitute teacher today, who she has had in the past, and has a penchant for texting.

Whatever.

Anyway, this gave K and her friend a little extra time to perfect their desk area. They sit at tables and evidently one of their male table mates takes up too much space with papers, books etc. So K and her friend ripped up a piece of white paper and formed a border around "their space". They told him that the rule was anything that is on or over the white line will be thrown away.

I asked K how that worked out.

She said she almost had to throw away his elbow.

Well he would have learned a valuble lesson about personal space.

This is freakin hysterical. And it would be his fault if he lost his elbow. A white border IS a white border. No crossies allowed!
