Nina's scribe notes from 4/29 period 6

Jack complains

Alex tries to talk

Gets ignored

We start reading Meredith’s scribe notes. Mrs. Gill is dissed in those scribe notes and in response she tells Meredith that she’s not more than her prom dress.

Okay..

Note to self: Kiddy scissors not kitty scissors.

Mrs. Gill tries to pronounce ‘lol jk’, and once again fails with this generation’s lingo.

Is 2048 educational??? . . . 4+4=8? . . . Since when?  

We’re all sorry you have a creepy smile, Adam.

WOAH hold on MACK HAS SOMETHING TO SAY – this one time Mrs. Kersting gets a bless you from the whole entire class but when Mackenzie sneezes she doesn’t even get a reciprocating bless you from Mrs. Kersting. Thank you for that insightful story, Mackenzie.

Is saying bless you superstitious? Adam says no, but Lucy rejects that idea and tells him that it was originally based off of superstition (which is accurate! Trivia: Some claim that a man’s soul would be thrust from his body by the sneeze and the ‘Bless you’ would temporarily shield the soul from Satan just long enough for the soul to re-enter the body).

We’re still not done with scribe notes yet.

Mrs. Gill says “I have my own kind of fun” which wasn’t very sexual, but I think Kory just enjoys trying to make people laugh about sexual things. It didn’t help when Mrs. Gill tells us that we have “sex soup” in our world. Really? A sex soup? Are you trying to make things weird?

“I know the answer, but I don’t know what we’re talking about” – Mackenzie’s senior quote

“Snow White isn’t a seeing thin, but it’s a believing thing” – Kory

*turning our attention to The Princess Bride*

Taylor has never seen the book

Adam has never seen the movie

But now he has the opportune chance because we get to watch it in class!

“At your house, Mrs. Gill?” – Kory

Nah, good try.

Excited chatter sweeps through the classroom as Mrs. Gill hands out a menu that will accompany the movie. But of course, Taylor objects to the menu because she eats a total of seven different foods, none of which are presented on the list.

Amelia Gardiner asks why grapes are listed under deserts which envokes a hearty laugh from Kory… too bad Voss tried to make that joke when Mrs. Gill originally handed out the paper… no one was listening so he pretended it didn’t happen. But it did; I saw it.

Still reading the menu, Kory starts talking to himself about what he should get. He settles on the ham. I of course accuse him of only doing it to get into the scribe notes (which he is in a total of eight times I believe). He rejects this idea and tells me that it would have been weird if he told anyone else what to eat, so he told himself instead. That makes sense.

Apparently it’s Meredith’s birthday. Everyone wishes her a happy birthday. No one means it. Sorry mere.

Note taking time! Let’s finish the notes the other class finished yesterday.

But I can’t take notes and scribe at the same time??? Looks like I can’t take notes, Mrs. Gill.

Oops.

No one to blame but yourself on that one, though. You chose me to do scribe notes today.

While I’m not taking notes, I’m watching Taylor watch everyone else.

I glance over to Voss and I bet anyone ten whole cents that he wasn’t taking notes.

Feminism is mentioned.

Everyone is thinking about Lucy.

She doesn’t seem to be effected by the word whatsoever.

We’ll just have to wait and see.

Sexual power.

All we ever do in this class is talk about sex.

Why don’t we have a sex ed class? Mrs. Gill could teach it. I take that back. She would be uncomfortably laughing the whole way through it. And end up making sexual jokes she hadn’t meant to have made.

I’d take that class.

But before I do that, I need to teach Mrs. Gill how to thoroughly erase her board.

Myth – 3 purposes: 1. Origins. 2. Hero’s. 3. What not to do.

One bless you for Lucy from Alex Voss

Did we not all just complain about not getting ‘bless you’s?

Tragedy – suffering, falling from high to low – noble people

“Started from someone’s who’s high”

I think Kory just made a marijuana joke

Drug test?

Once again we are making fun of What Technology Wants… but it wasn’t even that bad?? Maybe I’m just a nerd

Once again Taylor is flicking someone off (this time Amelia) and is trying to be sly about it by rubbing her cheek with her middle finger ~smooth~

Comedy – domestic life – creation of a new society – regular people

We’re not special

This job application is asking Jack for his super hero nickname

FYI: it’s John Pierce

It’s also asking about the vibe of the workplace and has peace signs throughout the applications

Sign me up, man.

Romance – not kissing L - not noble people but not normal people – specially talented people – ongoing quest

EX. Lancelot

Adam Lances a lot

Lancing is popping a boil??? No it’s not it’s jousting

Kory stop making sexual jokes

Irony – challenged individual – “so Taylor?” … she just made a joke making fun of herself… but she also has her own romance story… one that involves BRIAN. I hope she hates me for bringing him up.

Why is the sky blue? – question on Jack’s job application

Carley Sowell is staring at the same spot on the floor that she has been staring at all class.

Mackenzie is eating Chex Mix. The same Chex Mix Jayquelin was eating earlier.

Someone picked the ghetto version of Gatsby to read last year. It was turned into a film titled G. Mrs. Gill wants to be called G. She’s waiting for some grandkids. They could call her GiGi (GG?) instead. G says it sounds too old.

What is rye bread? – bread made wholly or partly with rye flour, typically with caraway seeds added – it’s a Jewish thing

HOLD ON MACK HAS A JOKE – speaking of rye what if it was RYEmeo and Juliet? (Mack, stop)

“What if it was Catcher in the RYE.. oh wait” – Kory.

Mrs. Gill needs a complainer. Braddock raises his hand. “Jesus Christ” – Mack

There’s this guy from Iceland named Thor who’s 6’9” and 400lbs. 

G brings up Shannon’s 2048 game and she’s already won. Surprise. “Have you already read the Princess Bride, Shannon?” – G. She’s halfway done. Surprise.

Mackenzie brings up how G used to be scary and how G snatched Sarah Holden’s belongings and put them in her room because they were always in front of her door. Then later that same week, G was walking down the hallway and took down a vulgar sign that just so happened to be attacked to Sarah Holden’s locker. G can’t remember what it said, but it involved oral sex.

Once again we are talking about sex.
