I'll Be 60 Too Scared To Vocalize It - Tumblr Posts

I used to have a teacher that HATED the word 'Stupid' and would actively punish anyone he heard say it. By making us do pushups in front of the entire class. And me being me I was TERRIFIED of that happening to me so I just. Cut it out of my vocabulary all together to the point where if I thought it I would go 'No! No! You do not say that. You say ridiculous or annoying or bitch etc'. And like. Even now writing that word down makes me so viscerally uncomfortable. Which I find. Hilarious bc. What's he going to do? Show up at my house tapping his foot going "I saw you used the 'S' word on A03. Drop and give me 20."
