Middle school science class. We were supposed to be boiling water over an alcohol burner. The kid across from me was getting frustrated because his wasn’t boiling yet. I took a look, and it just looked a little off, so I asked him if he was sure he was boiling water. He gave me a strange look and said that he thought we were boiling the alcohol. Just as he said that, his whole setup went up in flames to the ceiling and all over the table. I’m pretty sure he lost some eyebrows and needed some new pants.
2nd period goes hard
Nah they are barely waking up. I know I was.
That’s what I posted above “only half of second period is actually awake”
If you look at 7th period, it looks like someone erased a bunch of tally marks in Near Death Experiences. I’m wondering if they were downgraded to just burns as part of a cover up.
the teacher is the one doing the real lab experiment here
To me this looks like early morning tiredness and afternoon tiredness, while 4th period is in the sweet spot, like maybe immediately after lunch
I would say immediately before lunch. After makes me sleepy
Depends on what you eat, not all foods make you sleepy after lunch
Plot twist! 4th period only has one student.
Jesus! The worst I ever had was in 9th grade biology I accidentally broke a couple test tubes. I couldn’t imagine burning or cutting myself by accident or having a near death experience. 4th period would be my type of class because I wouldn’t feel comfortable at all anywhere near the other periods if they’re all getting injured.
I sort of managed a near death experience. Not actually life threatening but it was a good show. Basically same lab, trying to boil different clear liquids out of a solution. You do it once and record the plateaus, then do it again and switch tubes at each plateau to separate them. Well we started heating it the second time and it hit the first boiling temperature, but nothing was appearing in the condensing tube. It stayed that way for a minute or so, then the temp started going up past the first boiling point with nothing having actually boiled out. I turned to ask my teacher wtf was going on, then the rubber top with the tube in it exploded off the test tube and the resulting spray of gas/mist caught fire and created a huge fireball.
Cut myself with a microscope slide. Didn’t realize the lens would drop far enough to break it. Whoops. Ended up nicking my finger getting the slide off.
My proudest science lab injury though, was with a plastic butter knife. Don’t ask me how I managed, but I did. It was an ugly cut too.
I grabbed a hot beaker stand in 8th grade. To this day I wonder if the resulting shock gave me the ability to fuck with something internally at will. When I try it feels a bit like when I had electricity running through me.

I suspect 7th period is not the teachers favorite class
With a sigh he cleans the up the tally for the 7th period. “Can’t call it near death anymore”
Early periods, kids are tired. Late periods, kids are distracted because freedom is near.
Also, the blithe euphoria of lunch lasts less than an hour before the inescapable reality of your current situation creeps steadily back in.
My theory:
4th period everyone just wants to go home so they get er done without horsin’ around
The other periods they have to be there anyways so lots of horsin’ round to make the time go by faster
I’m disappointed no one collected them all.
Don’t worry, it isn’t real. Why would they make the cuts column when there were no cuts until third period? And you can’t figure the chart just started there, and they filled out the information from second, since the second period tally marks are in different color markers.
He could have set it up at the start of the class using information from past years.
The “near death experience” heading being messier supports this. I imagine this was the first time that happened, so he added that in the middle of class.
I guess some classes won’t learn how to heat stir sticks over a Bunsen burner to make glass spiral earrings and spiral rings. College Chem class allowed us to buy extra stir sticks and responsibly use our free time after labs were completed.
I’d say it’s the opposite. 4th period knows how to party responsibly
Periods 2, 3, 7, and 8 are Great British Bake Off on savory bake day. Period 4 is Top Chef.
Hot glass looks like cold glass.
