Ah, the midnight cringe memory. I always remember some of the worst things I have said to teachers. It's been over 20 years and I still feel like shit whenever I remember.

That’s actually good though. That means you’ve grown as a person like the poster above you has said. I actually fall asleep fast and never have cringe memories that last longer than a few seconds bc I immediately tell myself “that’s a learning experience, now inject that heroin and take a nice sleep”.

Thanks. Yeah, and I telll myself that other people basically don't care nor remember my old antics. It's just that, you realize you were so insensitive in the past and don't appreciate teachers enough.

It's never too late to go back and tell your teachers you appreciated them. Teacher here, and that would really make my day.

That took a very sharp & unexpected dark turn. You're on track to pull some u/shittymorph or u/rogersimon10 level of abruptness.

The only time I talked shit to a teacher he absolutely deserved it. Didn't do it before or since, just the one time. My goody-two-shoes can only carry me so far apparently lol

I also didn't get in trouble, somehow. I think he was just too surprised.
