elementary school

Twitter user Marina Ayano K brought back some serious (and very specific) '90s nostalgia when she tweeted about that little roller ball-thing found in computer mice that we were all fascinated by as kids. She then proceeded to troll her younger followers by claiming that that little ball was actually made out of the yolk of a hard-boiled egg, and that we had to prepare said yolk in order to use the mouse. Lo and behold, some people actually bought it, and the resulting tweets are priceless.

If you grew up in the '90s then scrolling through this Twitter thread will give you a serious case of nostalgia. Twitter user Melina threw together a hodgepodge of images of things we had completely forgotten about from our schooling days and let's just say, they took us on a little trip down memory lane.

Everyone has an experience they'll never get over from their schooling years. Maybe you got punished once for something you didn't do, or maybe it was that time that your first grade teacher yelled at you in front of the class for getting a math question wrong (looking at you, Ms. Anderson). The following people took to Twitter to reveal the things they're still pissed off about, and we can't say we blame them.

Absolutely no one was ready for this whole quarantine thing - especially the parents with no experience in teaching who are now forced to homeschool their kids. So godspeed to any of you parents who were thrown into this mess, and browse through some tweets from other parents who have no idea what they're doing but are still trying their best! 

Now have some parenting memes while you're at it!

As coronavirus continues to sweep through every corner of the world, schools in the US have been closing, leaving students required to finish their classes online. While many are ecstatic about this, many others are annoyed they even have to keep taking classes at all. 

Please enjoy these dank memes, many of which are brought to you by our friends at Know Your Meme!

It's probably safe to say that most of us were bullied at one point or another in school, and of course, the school rarely ever did anything about it. 

While that sh*t can certainly be very traumatic, it also made some of us stronger and more resilient to mistreatment. That's one optimistic way to look at it, right? Except for you Amy and Emily, you can guys can go to Hell.

Remember those days in elementary school when you'd fall on the playground and get sent to the nurse's office, only to be given an ice pack and get told to get back to class? Even if the injury was more serious, an ice pack or a little band-aid always seemed to be the routine course of action. Those were the days.

These kids may have technically gotten their test and homework questions totally wrong, but we think they deserve some credit for being clever. Like, way more clever than anything we (fully grown adults) could ever come up with. Okay, that might not be saying much, but you understand the sentiment.
