Today, my social studies teacher thought it would be a great idea to have a casual debate about Margaret Thatcher and her legacy. Within 10 minutes, the entire class was yelling, screaming, throwing stuff at each other. I got hit in the face with a binder. FML

Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, I was practicing my lines for theater class in the hall. My partner and I chose a script where we argue over me stealing her boyfriend. Since it started to sound like a real argument, another student said that I was a "crazy bitch" and punched me in the face. FML
Today, I got nominated to sit in a chair in the middle of the gym during a high school rally while the entire school got to throw paper balls at me. FML
Today, our school started an anti-bullying policy, and we watched a video about bullying. After the video, I told a teacher about a bullying case going on that I know about. His response? "Tell someone who cares!" as he walked away, chuckling. FML
Today, I taught a college course with a group of 30 adults. I was educating them on leadership and gave a 25 minute lecture, with examples like Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, and how they changed the world. Then I opened the forum to see who inspired them. The response? Donald Trump. FML
Today, my mom had an appointment with my teacher after class. She never showed. My teacher ended up driving me home. FML
Today, I was dumped. I ran home and cried and ranted on and on to my mother. After about 10 minutes of talking, she threw a book at my face and said, "No wonder he dumped you! You can't shut up!" FML
Today, I opened up an English textbook to find someone else's dirty fingernails between the pages. FML
Today, I was in the toilet. Some idiots thought it was funny to throw a water balloon into the cubicle. The balloon didn't pop, but fell in the toilet, sending my own urine onto my shorts. I had 4 hours left of school. FML
Today, my band played for our school. We were cheered for and everything. Being the lead singer, I tried to look cool and push the mic away and pull it back by pushing down the bottom of the stand with my foot. It hit my face and I bled like crazy, but I kept singing. No one clapped at the end. FML
Today, my music students began a lively debate about whether or not a music stand would make a good weapon for the zombie apocalypse. What am I teaching them? FML

Actually no, I don't watch the news often because its filled with a bunch of B.S. and its very rare that they actually report anything news-worthy. Also yes, I don't know who Margaret Thatcher is, but trying to insult me by saying its sad I don't know who she is doesn't really get us anywhere now does it? Not saying she isn't amazing in all of her accomplishment, whatever they may be, but the direction this FML was headed in was as if something very recent involving her had just happened, and it was something most people didn't like. Good or bad news, either way I would have heard if it was that widely known, but I was confused as to why people resorted to violence rather than who she actually was. But even so, to each their own.

I do find shocking that you don't know who she is but if you never watch or read the news that's not a surprise (I wonder how you keep up with what is going on in the world then). I find sad though that considering the amount of comments and seeing how clearly big the news is, you didn't actually show the simplest interest and bothered looking her up.

He's from America. To be fair it does make a bit of sense that he might not have heard of her. Or if he had heard of her, it makes sense that he doesn't know much about her. I know who Ronald Reagan is but I don't know that much about him either (although not a fair comparison as he seems to have been a good president). Whilst there are a fair few people commenting on this from around the world, I bet that most of them have some ties to the UK. Where of course, Thatcher's politics are still felt raw. Especially in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. To paraphrase Angus Robertson from the Scottish National Party, ''We will never forget, we will never forgive''.

I just hope the binder you got hit with is from a student that doesn't take notes! Less damage!

I love the Iron Lady! Even though I don't know all that much about her, she is still one of my top 3 favorite British leaders. R. I. P. Margaret Thatcher
