The Asshole War

[15:27] miss havisham: well, another perfect parent-teacher conferencein the books
[15:29] Gregonzola: Woohoo!
[15:29] miss havisham: :)
[15:30] fantabulous: I don't remember how any parent/teacher conferences went for me.
[15:31] miss havisham: i was always told "another perfect conference"
[15:31] miss havisham: so i gather they went a lot like my child's go.
[15:31] fantabulous: However. If I ever find myself with a child, I feel like I have to punch a teacher in the face at some point.
[15:31] fantabulous: Not every teacher.
[15:32] miss havisham: just one?
[15:32] miss havisham: i haven't wanted to facepunch any yet.
[15:32] miss havisham: i'm sure it's coming
[15:32] fantabulous: Possibly more than one.
[15:33] fantabulous: But at least one, as a "Things I have done as an adult" item.
[15:34] miss havisham: Ah. it's not on my list.
[15:36] miss havisham: well there was the one who told me that there was nothing she could do about the head lice epidemic
[15:36] fantabulous: I suppose I don't have to if no teachers deserve a face punch.
[15:36] miss havisham: despite my pointing out several things she could do
[15:37] miss havisham: i didn't facepunch her. i just told her that's fine, my kid would no longer bring a backpack or jacket to school since she wasn't allowed to keep them separately from other kids' stuff
[15:37] miss havisham: suddenly the rule disappeared
[15:37] miss havisham: seriously do not get into an asshole war with a woman who is sick of combing bugs out of her kid's hair
[15:38] miss havisham: i had an inexhaustible supply of asshole.
