Well now I’m curious what milk,milk, lemonade and spell I cup are
Spell out "I cup."
ICUP.
I see you pee.
Height of elementary school humor.
That’s like nothing at all compared to this skibidee toilet trend. Like comparing kittens to T Rex.
Isn’t it just some turd-looking head that pops out of the toilet and sings stupid song? It’s dumb, but it’s benign. It’s not like it is porn
No not benign. Would you call clockwork orange “benign” since it’s just a milk bar?

We can tell the differences between our kids and yours, too. Yours are the insufferable little know-it-alls that we all fear are going to end up without any friends, just like their mom.
Lol, that poster is nuts. Kind of reminds me of a mom I met who said she only let her kids watch old Mr. Rogers and old, old Sesame street episodes instead of Daniel Tiger and newer Sesame street episodes. The snobbery around toddler screen time is hilarious.

I teach MS and it’s been scribbled Al over classroom furniture. Boys that say this phrase do it all day long like a bad tic and there are many other boys that can’t be redirected after they hear someone else say it. And I agree with PP that said it was alpha males. Def the young Brett Kavanaugh types that say it the most.

The YouTube channel where Skibidi Toilet originates is called “Da Fu* Boom”. Tells you all you need to know.

Honestly this isn’t a situation where anyone needs punishment. Can you imagine getting a phone call from your kid’s teacher saying “your kid said skibidi toilet in class today”?
It’s just an annoying behavior that needs handling in class, and that’s what the extra recess thing does. Now the kids have mostly knocked it off and everybody is getting sone extra recess. Win win.

Last week they actually kept most of their 15 minutes, which means I kept more of my sanity and instructional time. Progress!
Why are you doing whole-class punishment when only a subset misbehaves? What does that teach the girls in the class about who matters and who doesn't?
This teacher sucks either way. Liking something the teacher doesn’t like isn’t misbehavior in the first place. She sounds unhinged.
I suspect this is my child's male teacher who punishes the entire class for things the boys do. It's extremely unfair.

Dude, it’s not a punishment. It’s not taking away anyone’s regular recess. They are EARNING the EXTRA recess for the class by refraining from skibidi toileting. They still get their normal 30 minutes every day.
It’s actually a whole class reward. I don’t do whole class punishments. There’s an important distinction in the way I’ve structured it.
When I don’t need the reward, I fade it out. Not my first rodeo.

Right? I don’t understand these over the top reactions. Wait til their kids discover 80085 on the calculator…

NP, but sounds effective to me. The kids that are talking out of turn to make stupid jokes about this are doing it to amuse their classmates. If the class is no longer amused by this behavior bc they now get recess deducted (or whatever it is), the kids doing it will be more likely to stop and feel peer pressure to not act out
