Asked to leave class

my freshman year of high school i went to a new school and i didnt know how to do school well bc i have learning disabilities. it was an academically rigorous traditional school and i forgot to do my homework bc i was bad at planning ahead and like generally keeping track of things. anyway like the first week of this new school i get to class and got called on about the homework and i had to say in front of the class that i forgot. this teacher was known to be an odd ball/old school and he yelled at me and sent me out of class and asked me and told me only to return when i was prepared and ready to learn. needless to say i was stunned and packed up my stuff and ran out crying. i mean i was literally like 14. this then became the folklore everyone told new students about this teacher and it got passed down but no one realized it was me and when i became like a senior i would tell freshman and they were like that was you?!?! anyway this teacher years later got clocked for sexual misconduct and buying kids alcohol lol

band director drunk drove students to and from all-state

This actually happened the year after I graduated hs but learning about the incident though my best friends made me realize our replacement band director was, indeed, a massive creep and it wasn't just us holding onto our old teacher lol Also I had an epiphany that lots of his behaviors were very predatory and gross towards myself and his other favorite students, and I'm 90% sure he would've done worse if I wasn't a senior when he first started teaching at our school tbh

"IS everything okay at home?"

one of my classmates said this to me my sophomore year of high school and it was so deeply out of form for a fifteen year old trying to cook another fifteen year old everyone present kinda just paused and went "wait, what?" it still haunts me to this day he lowkey got my ass with that one, if not for a strategically placed "whatever, man" that shit could have been *catastrophic*

making the most absurd analogies in order to remember something

i do a lot of theatre and my choreographer always labels the moves as something like “take a shit!“ or “fart and smear it around!” she’s the best and we all remember the choreo. the more absurd it is the more likely you are to remember it so have some fun

In person shopping

the department store music playing overhead - extra points if its jazz, warm interactions with other shoppers, befriending the cashiers, finding those treasures you never would have found online, going out for coffee after your shop, feeling so pleased you can support these local businesses because they make your day that much better
