    A chick who teaches the marching band I teach unwittingly got me to say "scissor me timbers!" over the loudspeaker last Friday in front of 120 band kids and 50 band parents.


    needless to say, I did not know what it meant until after I said it
    Hahahaha!

    So how did she trick you?

    I was just vamping on the mic while the kids were "resetting" (i.e. running back to the beginning of the chunk we were rehearsing) and saying some cliched shit like "what's really lacking here is the marching technique, you need scissors for legs in this section" and she said it kinda quietly next to me up in the bleachers (it was our "dress rehearsal" with all the kids in full uniform and a bunch of parents there).

    And I had no idea what it meant, I thought she was just saying something goofy and it sounded funny/dumb like the other crap I was intentionally saying, so I added "yeah that's it, 'scissor me timbers' says Anne". And suddenly there were like 40 kids and even a few parents just going "OHHHHHHHH" and I had no fucking idea why.

    So I looked around at the rest of the instructional staff and basically every single one of them had turned beet red, especially Anne, who looked like she was about to shit her pants. A few of them were snickering and/or covering their faces with their hands. I'm going "what? does that actually mean something?" and the band director is all "just keep talking. just move on.".


    whoooooooops

    YOU ARE AWESOME

    That's not even the worst shit I've ever said while teaching band.

    Something like 6 years ago (and therefore only a couple of years into my experience teaching high school marching band) I was teaching a marching fundamentals exercise that works on direction changes and specifically foot placements for direction changes, called the Figure 8. One of the foot placements was kind of weird--imagine one foot pointed straight forward and the other pointed inward at a 45-degree angle. Kind of a pigeon-toed thing going on there.

    Anyway, I was in the groove and cruising along, teaching them the counts for the exercise and everything, and I got to this part and without really thinking at all, I said "this one is the retard placement". And suddenly every single kid out there with me (60-70) was going "OHHHHHH WHAT WHAT NO WAY BOOOO".

    I had to completely stop the rehearsal and do the equivalent of a fucking press conference: "That was extremely inappropriate and unprofessional. I am sorry." or something like that. I felt like the biggest asshole.


    At least the shit I did this past Friday was somebody else's fault!

    K have any kid's you've taught ever found out that you post on the internet where they can read what you're saying

    I dunno, there's certainly more than a handful of them dorky enough to know what PA is, so I guess if they did some Googles for my name they'd be able to put it together.


    I heard somebody say "Pokemon Gym Leader" in the hallway the other day while everyone was heading out of the school toward the band rehearsal field.

    Is Pokemon Gym Leader your spy name or something

    no I mean I just overheard some geeky shit

    I don't have any idea what the context was

    okay, K said I could so none of you other mods ban me for this:

    NSFW Erotic ALF slash fiction:
    It was a quiet, relatively uneventful day in the Tanner household. Willie Tanner was still at his office,
    Lynn was at cheerleading practice and Brian was at his boyfriend’s house. Kate was curled up on the couch,
    indulging in some white chocolate and reading the most recent issue Red Book magazine when a commotion in the kitchen interrupted the silence.
    She rushed into the kitchen to find ALF sprawled on the ground, an empty bottle of Jim Beam in one hand and a tuft of what appeared to be cat hair in the other.
    “Fuck that fuckin’ cat…” he slurred.
    “ALF!” cried Kate “ALF, are you… are you okay?”
    he leered up at her from the floor. His eyes drifting in and out of focus as they slid over her well-toned calves, up to her soft round breasts, obscured by the trendy 1980’s cropped-top varsity sweatshirt she was sporting.
    “Kate, have I ever…have I ever told you that you’ve got really awesome tits?”
    “ALF!” screamed Kate, trying to sound mortified. She swallowed hard. She never knew ALF felt that way about her. It took her by surprise.
    Lord knows she thought about him all the time. His short, hairy body, his strangely arousing, phallic snout. That mole.
    “Smarten up ALF, you’re drunk aren’t you? Go upstairs” she tried to sound authoritative but her voice came out as a squeak
    “why don’t you come with me baby?” He had gotten up from the floor and was stumbling towards her.
    He fell forward clumsily and clutched at her breasts. She gasped. She felt a wrench of pleasure in her loins. She grabbed his shoulders, and tried to push him back, but he lunged forcibly against her,
    they tumbled to the floor of the kitchen in a heap
    “oh… oh ALF, no… no I can’t, what will will and the kids think?”
    “Fuck will and fuck the kids. And fuck me kate. I want to fuck”
    Kate’s thighs twitched in anticipation as ALF pulled off her 80’s style stone-wash tapered denim jeans and promptly began giving her oral pleasure. She moaned, grabbing at the coarse, reddish brown hair on the top of his head
    “yes! Yes! Eat me you crazy little alien! Eat me! Yes!”
    he grabbed her and flipped her over, put her into position and started nailing her from behind while she screamed, and tossed her hair like a wild mare taking it from some really fucking hot stallion or something.
    “I’M GOING TO CUM!” she screeched.
    “SWEET MELMAC, SO AM I!!” bellowed ALF.
    Their bodies shuddered as they climaxed in unison.
    Both of them fell to the ground, heaving with passionate exertion.
    Suddenly ALF started choking as if he was going to vomit. He coughed up a giant ball of pubic hair. “looks like I finally managed to eat the cat after all”
