Now, class, before I read to you, I’d like to know if anyone can tell me what the word on the board means.
How about you, Wilbur?
“Umm…”
Just try reading it out loud first.
“Ah-Ahg-Ahahggrestey.”
Everyone stop laughing at Wilbur this instant! It’s not his fault he can’t read. Wilbur, the word is ‘Ag-gres-sive.’ It’s not an easy word and all of you who are laughing like hyenas should be ashamed of yourselves. Making fun of someone for being stupid is not nice. It’s not nice at all. Why don’t you insensitive brats just make fun of Wilbur for having a stupid name while you’re at it? Bet he wouldn’t have his feelings hurt if you pointed out that his name makes him either sound like a hillbilly or a pig. Oh look class, Wilbur ACTUALLY looks like a pig. Isn’t that a wonderful coincidence that just begs you to make fun of him? How could a single moment go by without you guys pulling up your noses, oinking and saying, “My name is Wilbur! I’m a fat, smelly pig who lives in a home people in trailer parks make fun of!”?
Oh, did I say something funny? I personally don’t think that making fun of a student is a laughing matter. It’s not his fault he comes from a dysfunctional home. I’m sure his mother likes going out and collecting venereal diseases instead of caring for her child. Wilbur has never been given a fair chance and not one person has ever believed in him. Cut him some slack.
“And he’s fat!”
You children are vultures! Crystal, I want you to apologize to Wilbur after class. There is nothing wrong with Wilbur’s body type. In a 3rd world country, his fatness would be a sign of wealth. People would think he was the son of the prince because he had access to enough food to make him so big. Is it his fault that he doesn’t live in a 3rd world country and that here, in the US, he’s just a fat, poor kid with ganky teeth who has no chance of experiencing love?
It’s not nice to make fun of people, children. How would you like it if people made fun of you? I mean what about you Kenneth? You have a laugh that sounds like a dial up modem. ‘Hee-Hee-Hee-HAAAAA…HAAAAA!!’ And Susan, you have a bigger nose than Snuffleupagus. Class, let’s all point and laugh at Carlton cause his dad’s a drunk. HA HA HA!! He might as well learn his ABC’s as AA-B-C, right class?
It’s not fun is it?
Wilbur, I’m sorry you have such heartless classmates. I don’t think you’re stupid. Aggressive is a challenging word to read. The rest of the class probably thinks they’re super smart, but I bet most of them couldn’t read this word either. For instance, I know for a fact Christian couldn’t. I’d skip him ahead a full grade if he could keep from putting something in his mouth for one day. And today is out because I saw him putting whatever he brought in off his shoe from recess in his mouth.
Does anyone want to guess at what the word aggressive means? Yes, Ron.
“My Dad is a lawyer.”
Well, Ron, I’d like to make a new rule. You are not allowed to raise your hand unless I ask, “who smells like an open sewer.” Ok?
Oh stop crying!
