Flipped The Script

(We have a system with our teacher where we have happy faces on a chart, and if they get flipped, we have to stay for a pre-determined amount of time after school. Mother’s Day is coming up, and we have been discussing ideas to put on the cards we are making. I have been called on to share an idea.)

Teacher: “[My Name].”

(Suddenly the class started talking very loudly, and after he calms them down, I start to say my idea.)

Teacher: “[My Name], what did I tell you about speaking out of turn?”

(He goes to the chart and FLIPS MY HAPPY FACE, even though I did nothing wrong. I decide not to try and explain his mistake to him, as being in that room for a year and a half conditioned me to his logic.)
