[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teacher sounds like a narcissistic ass.[/quote]

From someone who never ever had to teach middle schoolers.  Teacher sounds humorous and on the level of kids with humor they understand. He really did not expect 25 candy bars.

OH MY GOD. :roll:

Parents are super scary these days...it' a wonder how anyone would want to teach.[/quote]

OP here. I really do not think the teacher is trying to be humorous. He told the class that last year he received 300 candy bars from his students as if he expected the same this year. I just asked my daughter what the banished words/phrases are:

OMG
Oh my gosh
oh my God
literally
I hate
like
any text talk: LOL, legit, etc.

Someone got spoken to harshly for saying "LOL" yesterday.

He spoke harshly to a kid who said "LOL" He said "Why would you say LOL when you didn't laugh out loud?"[/quote]

My hat is off to any teacher fighting the good fight against text speak. Hearing middle-schoolers speak that way, with the accompanying attitude, day in and day out would drive me mad. Forcing them to actually think for a moment about what comes out of their mouths will probably serve them better in life than algebra.[/quote]
