As bloggers, we often have to exaggerate our takes and speak in hyperbole to add jazz up the content. But I come to you with a truthful question: where does Mr. Gillespie go from here? Does he hobble into class on Monday knowing that the entire school just witnessed his knee combusting from a piss ant student? Does he change his name and catch the first flight out to the Congo where they don’t have internet? Does Mr. G go back to Summer Heights High? Sounds ridiculous but remember how ruthless we all were as middle schoolers? One time my Social Studies class decided to put a tac on Mr. Chesterton’s chair. She deserved no such treatment and she was no younger than 80. Imagine Mr. G trying to discipline a student when they know he’s walking paper mache. What the fuck is he going to do during fire drills? Them shits were like twice a week in middle school. A lot of questions, not a lot of answers.
Whatever path Mr. G choose, E:60 needs to make a documentary about it–Mr. Gillespie’s Road to Recovery or some shit. Maybe have the students sign a giant photo of a knee and give it to him as the ‘aww’ moment. This story is unraveling before our eyes and I kneed to see how it plays out.
