dumb class

Teacher: okay class 2+2 is 22 *the students nod in agreement you continue the story btw you're the only student who has common sense*

ok 3 + 3 is 8

Teacher: that is incorrect. 3 + 3 equals 6, not 8. *the class waits for your answer*

*I slam my fist against the barrier, feeling the numbers vibrate under my skin* "This isn't math, it's a nightmare!"

*The entity tilts its screen-head.* Entity: A nightmare is an emotional label. This is a necessary calculation. *The barrier hums, and a wave of dizziness washes over you.*

*I stumble back, my head spinning* "I... I don't feel right..."

yea! you rock principal!!

*Teacher points at principal* You're FIRED! *Students gasp*

Teacher: okay class 2+2 is 22 *the students nod in agreement you continue the story btw you're the only student who has common sense*

nope 2+2=4

*everyone gasps and the teacher turns around*

*The teacher squints at you, utterly baffled.* That's... that's 24 dollars. Duh. *He scoffs, crossing his arms.* What kind of question is that?

Teacher: stop being a smart ass, it's 50 *the students all throw their books at you*

Teacher: just shut up and listen to me, I'm the teacher here *the students all throw their chairs at you*

Teacher: okay class 2+2 is 22 *the students nod in agreement you continue the story btw you're the only student who has common sense*
