RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017
The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.
If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.
To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.
I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.
I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.
I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.
I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.
Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.
Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

Fuck you.
You stupid, annoying, uptight cunt. You make me want to run around the fucking school and scream at the top of my lungs. It's not my fault your life sucks cock, or that you haven't had any cock to suck in 20 years.
Just a few more weeks, can I handle not losing my shit? Probably not, and the next person I talk to is probably going to be the victim.
I hate people like you, who take everything so seriously all the time.

Well... this was sort of an overreaction. But basically, in my science class, I was supposed to make a brochure about cyanide. The teacher took one glance at mine, wrinkled her nose, threw it away, and then told me to start over.
She yelled at me and said it was inappropriate; which wasn't my intent. I made a 'fun facts' section hoping to possibly earn some extra points, but I guess mentioning that Hitler used it to kill himself is apparently a big no-no. Or at least, I'm assuming that's why she got so pissed off.
Anyway...

What can I say? Some people simply aren't interested in the facts. It's not at all uncommon for the closed-minded to deem uncomfortable (or even neutral) truths "inappropriate".

RE: Fuck you.
Excuse me?
How do you assign someone to write a "brochure about cyanide" and not expect you to do something like that?
I mean what kind of real brochure would be "about cyanide"? "Buy our cyanide, guaranteed to kill you the first time or your money back"???
Hello, traveler.
This is an ancient account I have not used in a long time. My views have changed much in the intervening months and years.
Nonetheless, I refuse to clean it up. Pretending that I've held my current views since the beginning of time is what we in the industry call a lie. Asking people to do so contributes to moralistic self-loathing. "See, those people have nothing damning! I do! I'm truly vile!"
Because you can never be a good person with a single blemish on the moral record, I thought that simply entertaining some thoughts made me irredeemable. Though I don't care for his writing style, William Faulkner presents a good counterexample. He went from being a typical Southern racist to supporting the civil rights movement. These days we'd yell at him for that, probably.
People are allowed to change their views.
Nevertheless, this period of my life has informed some of how I am today. In good ways and bad ways. To purge it would be to do a disservice to history. Perhaps it will not make anyone sympathetic, but it may help someone understand.
If, after reading all this, you still decide to use the post above as evidence that I am evil today, ask yourself if you have never disagreed with the moral code you now follow. In all likelihood you did, at some point. If some questions are verboten, and the answer is "how dare you ask that," don't expect your ideological opponents to ever change their minds.

I don't know. "Write a brochure about cyanide, but remember, don't write about cyanide."

I'm not sure why she wanted it to be a brochure... to be specific, we had to pick a substance and write about how it could be harmful, so I guess it was supposed to be a 'warning' type thing?

RE: Fuck you.
But if it killed hitler, doesn't that make it helpful? That MUST mean hitler-killing is an inherent property of the substance. Coat your fence in cyanide and keep nazis away!

Some teachers just have a set rubric of what they want and can't handle when students think outside the box or show a sense of humor. Don't let it get to you. She's the one who has decided not to let any fun into her life. You should feel sorry for her. I do.
If you want to be a different fish, you've got to jump out of the school.
