Halloween red flag

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my teacher read my story about a haunted house for a class assignment. She liked it very much and turned it in to the office to be sent into a state writing competition. An hour later, I was called to the office where the guidance counselor called my work "disturbing" and said I "need help". FML
Today, one of my classmates got bullied and the whole class got to wrote 2000 words about that. FML
Today, a classmate at college accused me of stalking her. All because I walked past her house. I was walking to the supermarket. FML
Today, I had to make up a story about my "friends" at school so my mom doesn't keep telling I'm a loser. FML
Today, a kid came Trick-or-Treating at my house. When I told her it was still one more day until Halloween, and that I didn't have any candy, she wound-up her fist, punched me in the groin, and ran off laughing. FML
Today, I turned in an essay after staying up late to work on it. I was away when the teacher assigned it, so I'd asked my friend what the subject was. It transpires that she'd given me the wrong one, all because she was mad at me for not returning her pencil. FML
Today, I forbade a student in the writing seminar I instructed from continuing to present his disturbing poems about demons. He responded to this by convincing nearly every other student in the seminar to write and read out loud several of his poems. FML
Today, in the class I'm teaching, I assigned my students an essay to complete for homework. One student asked me if I was deducting points for bad spelling. I teach English. FML
Today, a parent of one of the students I teach called me to complain that I was teaching her child "lies" and "fairytales". I was teaching them about the Holocaust. FML
Today, I collected my students' notes in class to check them. One girl, who is always drawing weird anime crap in her sketchbook, turned in just one piece of paper that read, "FUCK YOUR CLASS." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You must be a horrible student. One of those people who blames your failing grades on your teachers and considers any woman in a respected position to be bitchy for doing her job.

I hope you gave her a C for writing a bad horror movie that turns into a trite, but serviceable porno. In a world, Where she thinks she can't have him, she decides no one will. (Huge knife appears. "Psycho" theme.) As they struggle in mortal combat, their eyes lock. And she realizes she CAN have him. (Bow-chicka-wow-wow) Insert good ol' Catholic schoolgirl porno here. Cumming to a theater or MEGAFLICKS near you.

Yeah, #40. Stop being a wet blanket. You don't have to be a kid to enjoy Halloween. OP, that is really creepy. I suppose it depends on how much you know the student, but still. What if that paper were about attacking another student? I don't see how this is different. Nowadays, it's definately something to loom into at least.

Lonely_Lez (#41), I have to respectfully disagree with you. The best holiday is: (drum roll) April Fools' Day What gift or costume can compare to the time you send your wife out to get you a swankeeper's hat?

See, that'd make sense if I were only searched once or twice, but I was searched a total of 6 times during my days in high school. And Mercy, I agree. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. I was more or less getting at school officials who have a thing for over-reacting to things 99% of the time.

This is why I HATE reading comments on FML. First of all, which of you said that his use of apostrophe was wrong? Because unless he went back to correct it....it already IS right. "My students wrote a paper." "I graded my students' papers." That is what he wrote. READ. Secondly, yes the guy is a writing teacher. This is a WEBSITE, not an essay, not a classroom. He doesn't need to run it through eight grammar checks to please a bunch of a people who are probably his students' age. If you had problems understanding his OP, then perhaps you have a learning disability that you oughta check on. And lastly--TALK TO THE PRINCIPAL. Find out what the best course of action is with this girl. This is NOT a joke. She may have meant it as such, but then she needs to be spoken to in order to assess her intentions. She may not need repriminanding, but if she has a history of misbehavior, then don't ignore it. In this day and age, it is the little things like this that people choose to ignore and regret doing so. and by the way....it should be damn near impossible to find a teacher's address, if they are smart and make sure they are unlisted and ditch their FB and MySpace. But regardless--a student should not know their teacher's address, at all.

Chill out. One of the staff fixed it. It happens ALL THE TIME. Basically anytime someone points out the mistake, the staff fixes it. ****.

While I agree that the op's grammar is correct, if you hate reading comments so much, then why do you read them? No one's forcing you.

My apologies, I did not know that. ****.

It probably didn't just happen today, fool.
