The Most WTF Moments We’ve Had At School
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 มิ.ย. 2023
- We’re feeling nostalgic recalling the rollercoaster ride that is a school assembly. Brace yourself for Tell's ridiculously hilarious take on students' unionizing, and Gabe's priceless narration of a middle school anti-drug assembly gone very wrong. Not quite the inspiration we were looking for.
In the spirit of safety (and hilarity), Lauran introduces us to the most memorable fire safety magician, who taught kids about safety while pulling a rabbit out of his... fireproof hat? We also relive the terror of the legendary fundraising assembly skits. And let's not forget Tell's revelation about grade inflation, sparking a debate filled with wit and sarcasm.
We're also applauding our heroic students in this episode. From a 7th grader taking over a bus when the driver faints, to a brave class handling their teacher's unexpected fall, these kids give us hope for the future.
Just when you think it can't get any crazier, we cap off the episode with a story about a school with a very unwanted guest, pretending to be a substitute teacher. We promise it's even wilder than it sounds!
Join us for a jaw-dropping trip down memory lane in the world of school assemblies. We assure you, it's an episode you won't want to miss!

Bre’s laugh absolutely takes me out😭😭😭😭😭 this is the SUPREME cast combination
Fr❤😂
Your story about the kid choking brought up a memory, a student saved a teacher who was choking in my school a few yrs back. She started choking, the kid went into action and saved her life.
Was this on the news ?? I feel like I saw this on the news!
Not a teacher, but a nurse. I relate so much to having get someone to cover you so you can pee
When I was a senior we had a sub that was like 80 but was an Olympic swimmer back in the day....some punk was being disrespectful to him calling him names and everything and told the guy there was no way he could beat him in a swimming race. It was decided that the two would race 30minutes before school ended that day. The whole school heard about it and all classes literally stopped early that day to have an impromptu assembly to watch the race. We thought it was the coolest thing our school had ever done. Needless to say the 80+ Olympic swimmer kicked that kid's ass in the race and the kid was put in his place...they shook hands afterwards and the 2 got along from then on. We weren't a small school either. It was insane.
I taught in Southeast Asia for a few years (not in a big city, in the middle of the country) and we would have ALL sorts of wildlife come into the classroom- mainly reptiles etc. but because we also lived so close to a couple of farms we'd sometimes get farm animals that would wander over (like chickens, goats) and since most of the students lived in town and commuted out to the school they were JUST as weirded out as the teachers were whenever it'd happen. Probably the biggest WTF moment I had with that was when a stray cat came into my classroom mid lecture and gave birth to two kittens right then and there. (Actually it was really sweet because I fostered the mom and babies for a bit and then one of the students whose mom is a veterinarian ended up adopting all three- I still get photo updates about them!)
I teach in Japan and they have a net just for stray cats at my school😂
Having a microphone in class not only saves your voice and the energy level that you use throughout your day. It is also can be an access tool for people who are deaf and hard of hearing. As someone who is hard of hearing and is an educator in a hearing school it is the most beneficial to create access for everyone!
Postscript: thank you for talking about UTIs and what happens related to being teachers.
I’m so glad Gabe retold the story about passing out, just for Bri’s reaction!
FR
D.A.R.E actually scared me so I guess it was effective for one student 😭😭🤣🤣
The only anti drug assembly I remember having was one where the DA taught us about Good Samaritan laws and that if someone’s needs help you can call 911 and won’t be prosecuted I don’t know if they exist in all states but that was lifesaving information that I wish was more common knowledge to kids that age
I remember my swim teacher telling me about Good Samaritan with the example of "If someone isn't breathing, cpr will crack ribs but save their life. Good Samaritan keeps you from getting sued over the broken bones because some people are just ungrateful for being saved."
I literally gasped at the urologist part! Wtf?!
The bus driver story: bus drivers in my county have “emergency helpers” that we have 4 kids on our routes that help with evacuations and we teach them “hey if something happens to me, here is how to stop the bus safely, here is my emergency phone, and this is what you gotta do from there” for that very reason.
36:48 Tell makes Bri laugh til she can't breathe!!!! And now I can't breathe!!! Love yall.
Columbus City teacher here (& I've definitely been in some of those crazy decrepid buildings that we just had a strike over), but my biggest WTF moment was the day my vice principal came in and pulled me out of class. She was so serious that I thought somebody had died. It turns out a food delivery truck had snagged an electrical wire and pulled a telephone pole down onto a row of cars (including my own). I did get to see the security footage. The driver never stopped... just kept driving! 😮
I remember I middle school they had a 2 bathroom passes a semester rule or something like that. It was a written thing in our agendas we had to carry around and a teacher would actually have to sign it and once your two were done, most teachers refused to allow any exceptions. It was a nightmare if you had your period or something and at that age, we were all new to periods so two bathroom passes was awful. Thankfully most teachers would let us go every now and then even after the two passes were up.
But some of them, I feel like were taking out the fact that they couldn't go to the bathroom out on us.
They should build all schools like they do young elementary and put a half bath in each classroom. Yeah, that might be tricky for privacy for high schoolers, but this way anyone in the classroom could go pee and it wouldn't be a whole fiasco.
My schools didn't have that rule, but some teachers were jerks about the bathroom. On the flip side one lady in high school didn't want us to ask, and we just couldn't do it.
@@TheSuburbanBaseAdmin sets the bathroom rules, based on student behaviors & demands fm parents, because students have zero self control because their parents feed them too much synthetic fast food ladden with sex & growth hormones.
Reality, 4th graders are hooking up in the bathrooms & behind class portables & parks.
My school had passed like that in elementary and middle but not high school. High school teachers were either cool with it or expected you to go between classes unless you made a direct comment about it being your period which I wasn’t comfortable doing so I just didn’t go to school when I was on it
Really in my class we just write our names on the whiteboard and we can go whenever as much as we want they have to much trust in middle schoolers
I really remember the fundraiser assemblies in elementary. Because I was in charge of one. And yes, I was in 4th grade at this point. I had cancer and had shirts for chemo, so it’s really easy for kids, and wanted to give them to other kids in the hospital. So, I have a flyer to my nurse and she talked to the principal, and we made a video to share on all social media for all schools in the district. Then I got to skip gym and make a speech, and I talked in an assembly for all 6 grades, k-5.
These laughs and 🌟CACKLES🌟 kicked out all the nostalgic memories of NanaPudding and Louie the lightning bug out my brain like we live here now! 😂😂
Weirdly, I had to learn to hold my pee while I was a Custodian working at a college. Thankfully, I didn't have to call anyone to take my place while cleaning. But, the reason I had to hold it so often was because of Timing. Students coming and going. I couldn't run the vacuum in the mornings. I had to wait for the communal bathrooms to be empty before I could block it off to clean. The common areas sometimes had to be cleaned because of student events that we find out about 30 min prior.
Once the semester was over, we could take our time, it was nice.
36:58 Bris laugh was so loud it cut off the mics 😂😂😂
I understand the code "TOD" for these offers is for "Teachers Off Duty," but that also means "time of death" 🤣
If you like all the cast members, raise your hand ✋️
Edit bro wtf how did this get 150 likes? Thanks❤ 😊
🫳🏽
I like them all but I LOVE Bri.

I have not seen this earlier.

In 2004, the elementary school next to the 6-12 grade school where I taught, was destroyed when Hurricane Charley passed over central Florida. That school held classes in a local church from September to January of that school year. Literally, the 4th and 5th grade were in the sanctuary with rolling boards for the teachers to use and no wifi.
I graduated from HS in 1998 in a Missourian suburb of Kansas City. (There were over 500 graduates in my class.)We had SADD; students against drunk driving. During Red Ribbon Week they’d have a completely trashed car parked in the lawn in front of the school that had a sign in front of it “His car didn’t survive; neither did he.”
Then on Friday then one day of the week, they’d bring in several cars that were smashed and totaled set up in our back parking lots. Our student council would have fake blood all over them, half hanging out of them. Basically, it was supposed to be a drinking drinving accent with OUR friends the ones that were “hurt and or dead .” They’d bring ambulances and fire trucks, taking them away in stretchers. For a high school kid this really kinda messed with my gears. But I still remember, so it was effective.
Every single year in middle school we had an anti drug assembly. The most memorable was a christian rock band and a motivational speaker that made a girl cry
It has been a rough week and hearing that health class birth video story made me laugh so hard. I needed that lol thank you
10 year old babysitting an 8 yr old = "independent play date" LMAO
Every pregnancy, at my prenatal check-ups, the midwife is always getting after me for being dehydrated... then she took a maternity sub position and completely changed he tune. Lol. Now she's on a campaign for better and more realistic teacher breaks so we can do silly things like pee when we need to. Or a pregnant teacher can take a short nap if she needs
I grew up in GA and we had that same “Turn Around” assembly.
Most ridicoulus moment that happend while I was in High School was that, one of those plastic light cover fell down on me while in class. I wasn't injured but this was a private school and the teacher told me I should sue the school XD
I literally just had that happen in summer school this year! It just missed hitting a student thank goodness it didn't hit him. I am glad you are OK, we definitely thought that it could have killed someone!
The most WTF assembly that I remember having was when I was in 7th grade. It was all about abstinence. The split thr girls and boys up and showed us pictures of what all of the STDs we could get would do to our private areas. Then they had us sign these little yellow cards to pledge to remain securely abstinence until we entered a faithful marriage.
I like how you guys just banished him to the shadow realm and kept it pushing lmfao so wild
We had a gentleman who had transitioned to a woman but did not tell the school beforehand, walked on stage at my graduation and give a scholarship speech about how you can be anything you wanna be. Keep in mind this is a rural charter school in rural PA and we were farm kids like drive your tractor to school day rural.
“Is it a number 1 or 2 “😮😂😂😂
The "Turn Around" dance crew that came to my school was actually a religious group and did a "get saved" thing at a church that evening. This was in Texas.
I wish I could remember the name....
Not going to lie when Bre told the lunch lady story I was thinking was her husband trying to kill her ?!?! Then Tell 😂
32:04. Bri’s evil laugh be wild😂😂😂
I think teachers should make random noises/meows during teacher inservice, especially if it’s on classroom management. You know the presenter hasn’t been in a classroom in ages, if ever. I’d love to see their response. 😂
We had someone who would make what could only be described as *pterodactyl noises* in the back of the auditorium during assemblies
like imagine the staff finally got all the kids to be quiet then you hear *SSCCCRRRÆEEÆEEEEÆEEEEEÆAEEEEEEII*
The "Turn Around" drug assembly group was Youth to Youth. They came here to New Mexico when I was in junior high and set up a chapter. We did lock ins and conferences and they were really into hugs.
I had the "microphone on in the bathroom" incident when I was in first grade. I'm hard of hearing, so my teacher had to wear a mic so that I could hear her clearly from anywhere in the room. But, it works in the hallway, so I heard her pee AND FLUSH!!!
Did she wash her hands
13:02 he mentioned that he and his students would scream boo but now Gabe is advertising Grammarly😂😂😂
GOT ANY FILES!!😂😂😂
My classroom was directly below the nurses office. A little guy was living in a tent with his mom and didn't have access to a shower, so the admin set up a shower schedule for him. I went to get my 3rd graders and came back to rain in my classroom. The pipes weren't connected in the ceiling, so water everywhere.
Oh poor Tell. I'm in tears for you. Long distance hug 😢
Love u guys so much. Can't wait to see y'all in Arizona!!!
"You got any files" scratches face omg I lost it.... xDD ROFLROFLROFL
OMG Tell! Grew up in Alaska, but we had a skit/dance anti drug assembly that was done to the song ‘Turn around’ when I was in High school, high schoolers dressed up in black shirts and jeans that were facing backwards and and then there was a girl, her boyfriend, friends and parents. It started out that the girl gets in a fight with her friends, boyfriend and parents then when the first chorus starts she turned around the first black shirted person (tobacco was on the front of the shirt) and hugged them. She hugged them a couple times then turned another black shirt around (alcohol) and hugged them and as the song progressed she ended up turning all the shirts (each one another drug) around and hugging all of them multiple times. Then they created a circle around her that she was trapped inside, her friends and family finally pull her out of the circle and the black shirts line up again. The last virus she goes up to each of the black shirts and turns them backwards again. People always give me weird looks when I tell them about it!!! But every time I hear that song I think of the skit.
Awesome those kids helped the teacher who fainted.
Talking About drugs with puppets and his 1st question what kind of puppets? 😂😂😂
The worst was the laser pointers! I can’t tell you how much trouble those caused especially when trying to blind the teachers presenting or at assemblies.
Omg the yoyo guy!!! He was the BEST!!!
That urologist training. I'm expecting next you'll be given "awake vitamins" when entering. Teaching, trucking, and fighter pilots in the war.
7:46 kids at my school always bark randomly
I had to do the Heimlich maneuver on my brothers friend when he started choking on a bottle cap, and it took like 15 minutes, but we finally got everything to normal, but it was one of the scariest days of my life
I was in elementary in the 80s, graduated in 99. With that said, when I was going through school if you failed you got held back. If you got 0 it was a 0 no ifs ands or buts about it. Some teachers offered extra credit to everyone not just the ones who missed or refused to do assignments. This was also before computers or any type of electronics were in the classroom. Computers were just getting put into schools my senior year of high school and cell phones were just starting out. The most that teachers dealt with were notes being passed in school, hand written cheat sheets ect.
It was 10 points off for every day late
Breaking someone’s ribs for CPR is horrible the sound is unforgettable. My 6th grade year there was a pipe bomb in my school on the 2nd floor they didn’t even evacuate us on the first floor.
The horse watching the dog.... I think that's John Mulaney
One time, they held a court hearing about a DUI at school in our auditorium. Our class was notorious for being obnoxious during assemblies, so ALL the teachers and staff laid into us ahead of time that we could not misbehave in any way shape or form or we would get detention. It was supposed to be a “don’t drink and drive” scare us straight thing, but the dude that was on trial was an adult, and I don’t think he got a harsh sentence.
I’ll never forget the time I moooo (ed) in class and i thought my history teacher was going to die of laughter. It was so character of me 😂
His ankles are long 😂
I thought it was interesting to hear Tel say about them wanting a good graduating score because we were told in middle school that the worse we did on state assessments, the more funding the school would get the following year
This was such a funny episode 😂❤
once we had an assembly, and no joke, an entire 8th grade class started yelling "WEEEE WIIIIILL WEEEE WIIIIILL ROCK YOU" and stomping, and then the WHOLE SCHOOL joined in (including me) and the teachers went WILD and the principal SCREAMED in his microphone.
Very interesting to hear how the random noises cross international boundaries. I've heard all those noises to this year!
I love these teachers ❤
I had to do the Heimlich on a second grader. That was before it was required and being a former lifeguard I kept my CPR and First Aid updated.
She just graduated from high school, it was both our claim to fame. Thank goodness she has younger siblings so I can ride that fame train a little longer LOL
Trigger Warning!
Sui*+de
I was a Lunchtime yard duty at the time and the school I was working at got out early every Wednesday. One Wednesday as I get home I get a phone call that there was an “incident” and the staff had to come back. What happened was on the bus route one of the people in the neighborhood had stood on the sidewalk and had used a shotg*n on himself; and most of our students saw this!
We had counselors in for the next few days and we were asked if we could walk students home. It was sad and traumatizing for everyone.
Oh my gosh!! Yes Tel we had that exact assembly in Round Rock TX it was crazy, strobes and everything It was crazy and it will always be in my brain every time I hear this song!
My middle school english teacher always told people that were scared of failing because they worked slower than others and they were afraid of zeros "I don't give zeros, zeros kill." She would put a 50 in as a placeholder until they redid/turned in their assignment. To be fair, I go to a school was 300 people in the whole district and she had ample time to help people that needed it.
Congrats best friend, you have the bladder of staff nurse 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
When gabe was talking about that middle school assembly it reminded me of a few years ago when I was at a school assembly in elementary school, and long story short this dude (Who was a former cavs player and dont come for me if its so obvious cuz i dont watch sports) was talking about like losing his best friend and at the end of the breif history he's like "I'd get into more detail but right now some of yall a bit too young." And stuff like that. BUT THE WORST PART WAS, He made it TOO clear that only the middle schoolers would get to hear the full story. And in that moment I had wanted to be in middle school SO BAD, AND I DIDNT EVEN NEED TO CAUSE BY THEN I HAD ALREADY KNOWN MOSTLY ABOUT WHERE HE WAS GOING!! So yea.
Lmao Bre getting onto Gabe about the birthing video🤣
Seriously though the most awkward thing ever is when your school arranges for each class to view anti-bullying videos and anti-abuse videos but it gets worse when you’re in eighth grade you view stuff that’s anti- Inappropriate touching and dating
OMG our school also uses the fire safety guy the magician!!!! Kids love him so much and so do we!!!! Lol one year we had BMX riders. It was freaking awesome !
Our district has one quarter that no matter how little they kids do, they get no lower than a 50. The second quarter is earned grade. Third quarter us back to 50. Final quarter is earned grade. Any kid who really works hard second and last quarter can pass the class. Of course, there are going to be those kids who play it so they know exactly what they need to pull out a D+!!
OMG I totally remember the Turn Around skit!!!! I guess they made it to Seattle too.
I used to hate taking my Advisory class to school assemblies. I used to get heart palpitations. I am so glad to see teachers representing us and our experiences. During the dark days of the Great Recession and school reconstitutions and evaluating teachers by student test scores, I never thought we would be in this situation where now teachers are desperately needed. I have to laugh when I see districts offering relocation bonuses.
I had not been getting notifications again til just recently...Yo, Bri you are glowing! Looking fantastic
We honestly had no interesting assemblies growing up, fundraiser craziness but that’s about it. My WTF moment is during open house we had a lockdown😅
I learn so much from this program. Bri is great!
Never a shortage of those when you work in trauma-informed and alternative ed. Actual quote from a student: "Is it weird teaching a bunch of methheads?"
In my senior year of high school, a ceiling in a classroom in the upper hall collapsed, luckily on a weekend when no one was there. Huge, thick chunks of the ceiling completely smashed desks. The solution? 2x4s were placed in the hallway to brace the ceiling. We had to gingerly step around them the rest of the year. A few years later, the school was demolished because it would have cost more to fix than start from scratch. The movie theater complex that replaced it built a facade that looked like the front of the old school since it was such an old and beloved school, so that was nice.
I live in PA and our schooling is so different!!!! Most assemblies are the same, however, rules are definitely different! It is crazy to see the difference.
The Total Eclipse of the Effect of Drugs performance was big in central Texas. I "performed" it in high school in 2006. More than that one dance move though. And yeah, i was in what we called RISE, and also smoking weed.
22:08 no child left behind has turn education into a quota system
Oh man i feel that. Like
I WAS that kid that just couldn't bring myself to do anything. Granted my ADHD made it hard for me to find the motivation to do anything until the very last minute, but yeah. To all my former teachers, my bad.
24:18 when she said there needs to be a system that every day a paper is late you gotta miss like half a point.. I go to a private college prep high school, so if you don't turn in a paper the day that it's supposed to be turned in its an automatic 50%, and any days after that it's -10% every day.. plus if you don't put ur name on a paper it's automatically 65%. Plus the bathroom thing, we had one bathroom pass and if ylwe used it, it would take points off of our overall grade in the class.
So I'm a student right now and I would just like to say that it is an art form to be able to hold it for the whole day after drinking like five bottles of water throughout the day
I also went to high school in Indiana and first, the size of the school gyms are crazy! One side of our lower gym seating could sit our entire student body. FYI, we had upper level seats for a high school that only had 600ish enrollment.
Since, I was in a rural area in Indiana (and it was the 90s), interpretive dance was too gay to be allowed for a school assembly. We got the boring speakers, who were usually associated with some Christian group even though that was illegal since it was a public school.
Where have I been? This is so funny!!
I learned how to do the heimlich maneuver in scouts and thank God I did.
My dad, bless his heart, DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO EAT FOOD.
First time i was around 9, barely managed to get my arms around him and pop out the steak he was eating.
I have saved his butt probably near half a dozen times with the heimlich maneuver.
Most recently about 2 years ago, my stepmom was screaming for me and my dad is pale in the face completely choking. heimlich maneuver round 7 or so now.
I made sure to teach that woman how to do the heimlich maneuver anytime any place when i moved out of my parents house XD.
And no it's typically not glamorous like movies like popping a champagne bottle. It gets kinda nasty. But you do what u gatta do to open that airway
I have done this one three times. Once with a complete stranger at a restaurant. Then twice I have saved her life twice. She eats too fast. It is really easy and so far I am batting 💯
in my high school the teachers parking lot what right next to the band room and all of the percussion line would go outside to practice and set off all the car alarms and man you should see all the teachers coming out to turn there car alarms off lol
A few things for Lauren:
1. I think you're thinking od SADD which when we were in school meant Student's Against Destructive Decisions.
2. The comedian your thinking of is John Mulaney with the bit about the horse babysitting your dog.
3. I grew up in Beaver Falls which is super close to East Palestine on the PA side. Ever hear of it?
Great Show to all!
YO I LOVE THIS VID
I was raised by my grandma and grandpa and spent my childhood and teen years in the VFW with the WW2 vets and their wives. I was the only kid in a group of grandparents who hardly ever saw their grandkids. Needless to say I was spoiled rotten because I filled a void for them. When I was in elementary school, we had the Ronald McDonald thing where they collected pop tabs from cans, but we had a small school so it became a competition to encourage participation. So, the office recorded the weight of each student's donations throughout the month. My grandma was the VFW bar manager, and I had 20 other sets of grandparents. Needless to say, a month's worth of pop tabs from the VFW bar and 20 sets and grandparents saving them at home, I won every year. At the assembly where it was announced, I usually donated about 100 pounds. Don't get me started on how easy it was to sell $1000 of Girl Scout cookies in 20 minutes at Sunday breakfast.
Damn y'all got intros now. I love it.
On the late work thing hold them to the college standard. Most colleges have a late work policy that states 10% off per day late and exceptions are up to the discretion of the professor.
I’m my fifth grade class we had a assembly were there was a magician that looked like Captain Hook. He said to everyone we are not doing magic we are doing homework 😂. And they all cried when they stopped he started juggling 😂😂😂😂😂
“Can’t fail” accountability is a lesson that needs to be taught.
I worked at an elementary school where they didn't have a nurse full-time. The clerical in the office had to help. They still had the old school thermometers with mercury in them. I was not a mother yet, so i didn't know how to help these kids sometimes. This was before cell phones...
Tell, please bring a change of clothes to school...lol
They have no child left behind at the schools around here.
New subscriber...I love you all ❤️
