man i am thirty fucking years old and i just got heated remembering how my eighth grade science teacher embarrassed me in front of the whole class by making fun of me for saying '20th century' when i meant '21st century'

this was in the early 00's even!

a perfectly understandable mistake for a child to make

and i remember it to this day

anyway, don't humiliate kids, especially for minor mistakes

Ugh bastard. Relatable which makes it worse

I still, occasionally, get mad at one of my PE teachers for calling me out in softball when the base person actually STOOD on my foot.
