Can’t Knock A Good Bout Of Talking
(This is directly after art class. Everyone is cleaning tables. My friend is known for not listening during art, and talking a lot.)
Friend: *knocks over pencil can while wiping table and talking* “Dang it!”
Teacher: “[Friend], do you know why you knocked that over?”
Friend: “Um…”
Teacher: “It’s because you aren’t focusing on the task. You talk too much and it needs to stop.”
Friend: “I knocked over a pencil can!”
Teacher: “If I hear you talk one more time, I’m going to write you up. Is that clear?”
Friend: “Yes, ma’am.”
(Bear in mind this was while we were cleaning off tables, not during class. Everyone else in the room was talking, including me, and he got in trouble for knocking a pencil can over. Needless to say, the next day he talked as much as possible.)
