Today, my parents got a call from my principal. I'd been lying that I couldn’t see the work I had to do in my online class, because I was behind and I needed to catch up. Tomorrow my parents are getting a call, telling them the dates I've been logged into the online learning. I haven’t logged in in weeks. FML

College Life
Packed lecture halls, a sketchy roommate and frat parties: welcome to college, the real thing.
Today, I've been making extremely good progress in my online class. Or at least… I was, until the deadline to complete it was suddenly pushed a whole month forward, causing me to be "behind." Then my teacher had the nerve to email me, telling me I needed to catch up. FML
Today, my parents got a call from my English teacher. She told them that I have 14 days of detention because I've been cutting class. I've been there every day, but apparently she never noticed me. FML
Today, I failed school and ghosted all my teachers. Nobody knows, but I'm planning on telling my parents in a week. I'm fucked. FML
Today, my mom found out that I’ve been faking my exam grades, turning my 30s to 80s and 40s to 90s on the paper exams. She got access to my online student portal and saw my real grades. I'm grounded for the rest of the school year. FML
Today, my parents left for work before I had to leave for school and I decided to skip. I stayed by the phone, expecting the school to call so I could pose as my parent and excuse my absence. The phone rings and I pick up. It's my Mom, calling to leave my dad a message on the machine. FML
Today, I got sent out of the class for "inappropriate" behaviour. The teacher later forgot about me and sent a notice home to my parents stating that I skipped class. FML
Today, I was sitting in math class taking notes on my laptop when my mom texted me, asking why I wasn’t in class. She has my location for security purposes. I’m 19 and in college. FML
Today, my college English teacher told me if I wanted an explanation for my grade I would have to schedule a conference to come to her office. It's an online class. I took an online class because I can't come in. FML
Today, exactly 19 seconds after I logged on, my boss Zoom-called me to let me know 3 people are out sick, probably until Monday, so if I wouldn’t mind doing their work as well so we don’t fall behind, within working hours, no overtime available. He wasn’t happy when I told him no. FML
Today, after a conference with my teacher who had previously accused me of not doing my homework, she finally discovered she'd been losing it all this time. I've been getting straight Fs for a month. FML

Yup, lying your ass off on something that's easy to verify. My kiddo tries that every so often then gets confused why he gets grounded for a month for stunts like that.

Don't expect any sympathy here. You absolutely deserve any punishment that's coming to you.

Yeah so, now you learned to not half ass your lies. If you’re gunna lie about something that has logs ya gotta put effort into it! There’s a difference between lazy and stupid. Lazy people would do as little work as possible the most efficient way (meaning they’d log in, use some photoshop make fake videos of errors) and then there’s...yeah sucks to be you lol

Zero sympathy. Lying and laziness won't get you a job when you eventually graduate, if you do.

Tell your parents it's fake news and a hoax. Your principal is a radical socialist from Antifa and is part of the deep state. You've done a fantastic job with your online studies and your teachers are amazed at your intelligence and effort. You have to kick your lying game up a notch!

It'd be a bit pointless to ground you at the moment, so say goodbye to whatever freedom you were expecting to have once the lockdowns are removed.

I would get the belt if I tried the same dumb shit when I was at that age
