Maybe. It's happened before and it'll happen again. Here's what I think I understand.
You're being wry about not being "allowed" to like any teachers while you're in school. I get that. I just disagree. You've been much funnier in other posts, much more incisive, much more insightful. I imagine you sense the peer pressure at your school, and perhaps you feel some compulsion to yield to it. But I don't get the sense that you place a lot of emphasis on other student's opinions. I think you're (mostly) mocking the other students, the status quo. I don't have much to go on when it comes to your attitude toward your teachers at school. But I hope that should you find some that are interesting to you, and approachable enough to develop some kind of friendship with, some kind of "liking", that you wouldn't let some dumb idea like Quote:
You have read several examples (and some counter examples) in this thread of the positive impact a teacher can make on a student. I'm sure you know of some in your own experience, first or second hand. Be open to that. If you were making a joke, it was weak and unfunny. If you were serious, you're just wrong. But perhaps I misunderstand. [/two cents] [/preaching]

Naw man, I'm just makin' fun of teenagers (and, I guess, myself) in the way I have. I've actually got some cool teachers this year, and definitely have had some cool ones in previous years. I was just being wry.
Peer pressure? I feel none; I have no peers here, I'm far superior.

It's not just a good idea...it's the law. So make sure there a no incriminating pictures on anyones hard drive. And for gods sake don't brag to friends or tell Linda trippe.
