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.

The forums are mostly read-only and are in a maintenance/testing phase, before being permanently archived. Please use this time to get the contact details of people you'd like to keep in touch with. My contact details are here.

Please do not make a mirror copy of the forums in their current state - things will still change, and some people have requested to be able to edit or delete some of their personal info.

And the teacher wouldn't even let me out.

Looking back, I wish that the tornado demolished the school and killed some of the people there. Many of those people caused me a lot of pain back in 6th grade.

Wake up people, and look at life around you

Sums up my art teacher. She also teaches us something called "technological education". I don't know if that exists in the US.
The teacher makes us do the same thing all the time, not only that, she misses classes everytime. I think we only had about 3 classes with her this year. So, I have to wake up late in the morning just to find out that she missed class, again. On the upside though, she lets us hear music on our phones.

I have no idea.
Today we were supposed to have her today. Like normal, she wasn't present until we saw her enter the school to teach another class. We asked why she wasn't at school. She said she didn't feel like teaching us.

RE: What is the worst thing teachers have done to you?

I have this biology teacher who is just so awful in many ways.
He is a creeper and says we're all his 'friends' and wants to know what we're doing over the weekend. I end up saying, "Sitting in the dark of my room," which one can see clearly ticks him off. He also makes us "share good news" once every week because apparently, "it helps you learn better." I generally say something like, "I ate food," while thinking that if all things go well, I won't have to see his face again. I also had the same guy for my seventh grade homeroom teacher, and when I broke my ankle, he was very unaccommodating. He also hasn't changed his lessons at all since seventh grade (except he added one new three-day lesson this year). And it's always boring stuff like food chains and evolution bullshit. And going on with evolution, he said he would fail anyone that refused to answer his evo. test according to his classes, not their religious lessons. I solved it by writing both (even though I haven't payed attention in his class all year. Still got 100%).

What is the worst thing teachers have done to you?

I had an English teacher in 10th grade who got involved in my affairs of skipping school and reported it to the counselor. I blame her as one of the major reasons that I got "caught" and almost got in trouble for truancy. I probably would've gone noticed much later anyway, but she accelerated my counselor and in turn other school officials in noticing my excessive absenteeism.

My stupid English teacher has punished me because one boy pushed another boy on me. Plus she gave me negative points later, because I made paper airplanes and wanted to throw them at the boy and at the teacher as a revenge!

RE: What is the worst thing teachers have done to you?

The worst thing? Hmm...

In 6th grade I remember I had this math teacher who didn't really see the point in "teaching" at all. She would bring up the projector, show us a shitty slideshow from a workbook about how to do some problems, and then assign them. If anyone had trouble - which they did, it was math - she'd say "I don't give a rat's ass that it's 'too hard', you need to figure it out! If you don't I will kick your sorry butt out of this class and teach people who actually want to learn!"

I ended up getting a parent/teacher conference and once my mom saw how stuck up she was and refused to believe kids needed help sometimes, I got off completely.

RE: What is the worst thing teachers have done to you?

INCORRECT COLOR WHEELS!!!!!!!!!

EVERYBODY LEARNS THE WRONG COLOR WHEEL. THE ACTUAL PRIMARY COLORS ARE YELLOW CYAN AND MAGENTA, THE ACTUAL SECONDARIES ARE RED GREEN AND BLUE. I KNEW THIS AS A KID AND MY ART TEACHER WAS A FUCKING RETARD WHO WAS JUST LIKE "your wrong"

SO NOW NOBODY ANYWHERE EVER BELIEVES ME!!! EVERY PERSON EVER WAS TAUGHT AND BELIEVES THE WRONG COLOR WHEEL.

RED IS THE OPPOSITE OF CYAN
YELLOW IS THE OPPOSITE OF BLUE
GREEN IS THE OPPOSITE OF MAGENTA

OPPOSITE COLORS WHEN MIXED SHOULD NOT CREATE BROWN, THEY SHOULD PRODUCE GREY SINCE THE HUES WOULD CANCEL EACH OTHER OUT

RED AND GREEN ARE NOT OPPOSITES. YOU MIX THE PAINT AND IT BECOMES BROWN. YELLOW AND PURPLE MAKE A MUDDY BROWN, BUT IS CLOSER TO GREY BECAUSE THE ACTUAL OPPOSITE IS BLUE WHICH IS SIMILAR TO PURPLE BUT BLUE HAS NO RED.

BROWN IS A SHADE OF ORANGE/YELLOW.

FUCK ART TEACHERS

Bruh.

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.

RE: What is the worst thing teachers have done to you?

Turns out we're both wrong, there are 4 primary colors (as color isn't a "thing" and just our perception, and we percieve it along red/green and blue/yellow axes.) This is why people experience red-green (or more rarely blue-yellow) colorblindness. Still, it shouldn't be an unreasonable proposition that there are different models of color for different applications.

RE: What is the worst thing teachers have done to you?

Fact is, those color wheels when I was a kid were missing cyan, and magenta. Bitch said there is no such thing, it's "blue-green", this muddy dark color you couldn't even make cyan with by adding white cuz then it's all grayish (so she was right). I still want to smash her face btw.

I am still right by the way.

Also your "how the brain works" rebuttal is wrong, we've got three cone receptors for red, green, and blue... I think.

Anyway, what's funny about magenta is it's not a wavelength like pure green which I believe is just like a sine wave. Our brain creates magenta when viewing what I by deductive reasoning have concluded must be a harmonic wave, meaning it's two different waves combined. So yeah, by our experience of color there is a complete circle which has some reality outside of us, but some reality only within us.

No red herrings allowed.

RE: What is the worst thing teachers have done to you?

THE COLOR WHITE!!!

Ok, THEY say "white

Side note, my racist auto-complete keeps suggesting I capitalize the "w" in white, but it doesn't do it for black...

Anyway, they say "white is reflecting all the colors of the spectrum". Ok so what the F is a mirror? Is it just like really super white? The back it looks grey, so wtf?

Jeez! I am still super confused about color. Also are there animals who can see infrared? Don't some people say the "invisible light" can be smelled? Who comes up with this shit!?

What is the worst thing teachers have done to you?

My dumb Pastoral Leader yells at me all the time, usually for no reason. And she thinks it's funny.

My English teacher now keeps telling people lies about me. That's even worse than punishing me for just getting pushed in the corridor.

And my Year 8 PE teacher gave me detentions for stupid reasons.

I hate those three teachers I just mentioned, but I like all my other teachers.
