Every parent thinks their children are the smartest, the cutest, and the overall best humans on the entire planet. And ironically, bragging parents are among the worst people on the entire planet and they all need to be shipped to an island somewhere where they can fight to the death over whose child can recite the alphabet backward before even being born. One father took to Twitter to brag about his children's intelligence, slam the public school system, and promote his new book. Needless to say, it didn't go down very well with other parents or teachers. Follow below to see how he was mercilessly trolled.

School should be a safe place, where students go to study during the day in peace. But between the fighting teenagers, kids daring each other to do stupid stuff, and the general way that school kids fool around thinking they're invincible, accidents are bound to happen. An AskReddit thread asked people to share the disturbing things they witnessed at school and some of them are pretty bad!
The difference between a positive and a less than ideal school experience is often down to the teacher you have. A subject that is usually deathly boring (maths anyone?) can be brought to life by an enthusiastic teacher, and make their students love the subject. We've found some teachers who certainly have that passion and we only wish we had teachers like when we were in school.
School is a place to learn, but it's also a place to make mistakes. Because that's how you learn, right? Ideally, those mistakes happen on the down low, like when you get an answer wrong in a test. But sometimes, they happen very publically and the cringe-worthy moment will live on forever in the minds of everyone who saw it. Awkward school presentations are a great example of the public humiliation endured in school and an AskReddit thread listing examples of the "please stop" school presentations that people have witnessed revealed some real gems. Here are some of the funniest.
AskReddit is at it again, asking insightful and thoughtful questions that turn into fantastic threads!
This time, user u/imconfusedbro1 is asking, "People who shoved their school papers in their backpacks with no binder/folder etc, Where are you now?"
Anyone else feel personally attacked? OK, good. I'm not alone.
Students at North Farmington High School in Farmington Hills, Michigan, have cracked the code of making school slightly less boring. How? By dressing up as their favorite pop culture characters and memes for their school ID photos. Story via Detroit Free Press.
The kids are finally back in school! Well, some are. And the parents cannot contain their excitement, as well as, humorous 1st day stories, and the joy that is back-to-school shopping.
If you have kids, you know. If you don't, this is what you're missing out on! Enjoy!
Ms. Murphy (@magicalmsmurphy) gives her high school students the option of submitting school appropriate memes about her, the school year and class material to present on the last day. "They usually take this opportunity to roast me, which I don't mind 😂" she said in a Tweet before sharing a selection.
Let's face it, school is daunting and boring. Having a great teacher really makes a huge difference. Having a creative and fun teacher? You'll forget you're still in prison for the next 8 hours! These teachers are just some of the most creative we've stumbled upon the internet. Thank you, teachers, never stop being awesome!
@Avitable was sitting very patiently waiting for students to arrive to learn the exciting world of Algebra! He even brought them candy! (A+ for this teacher!) But, sadly it seemed no one cared enough to EVEN SHOW UP! But not to worry, @avitable decided to update his Twitter feed and document the whole event... and made one heck of a funny story from it!
School trips sometimes need more than just a teacher. They need backup. So who do they call? Not Ghostbusters but, jolly ol' parents. Parents who pretty much are guilted into going on these trips to chaperone kids. Well, this dad was in that situation, and he basically live-tweeted what every parent that has had to chaperone felt...
