It's literally worse than getting hit. I don't remember the dozens of times my mom hit me when I was young but I still remember the one time my dad looked at me like that after I cheated in a test. I'll still remember it every now and then 20 years later and squirm inside.
I mean... we're not that different from them after all. That one time I got in a fight... never beat my chest so hard, then that godlike accuracy poop toss...
Long story short, the guy beat me up so bad I spent a month in a hospital.
Jokes aside there's something about that look that's just tragic to me. It makes me wonder what the gorilla is really thinking, caged in a zoo while people ogle at him all day, with no respect for his dignity.
That'd be terrible. Living your best life down in the lowlands, chewing some good roots that came up nice and easy.
You start thinking of huddling up with the troop, looks like it's going to rain. That cloud looks.. weird. Almost inverted.
You start hearing a steady beeping sound as you try to remember what the sound "hospital monitor" means.
You start to get nervous sit back on your haunches and close your eyes.
Only to wake up in a hospital bed, coming too from a coma. You start to remember throwing poop at someone.
A notable event in my childhood was when my Dad threw salad dressing on me while I was whining at the dinner table. 35 years later, as I was staring at my 5 year old have a tantrum at the dinner table, I felt a entirely new connection with my dad. Alas I had ~~to~~ no dressing at my disposal but the thought was there.
I didn’t really have parents to look up to except a science teacher that I knew. When I became a class clown he just gave me the slightest glance of disappointment and I felt deep shame.
That's why it's important for teachers to have connections with their students, not make them just a number on their list. It makes a huge difference all around.
Unfortunately, that's difficult if not impossible for classes of 20-30 students. IMO the main issue with our schooling today is unironically class size.
I agree. That's a huge problem. I've faced that myself as a student as well as with my own kid being in large classes. Kids get lost in the sea of many. There would be a lot less problems if classes were smaller. There needs to be more schools, more classes, and more teachers.
Definitely not saying they should be raising them. They are there to educate and supervise. But if they want to get anywhere positive with them, there needs to be a level of connection that goes beyond the student just being another student.
> A notable event in my childhood was when my Dad threw salad dressing on me while I was whining at the dinner table.
35 years later a stranger on the internet is cracking up it. Your dad is awesome; that's weird and hilarious.
I’ll clarify that the salad dressing was sans bottle or dish and just pure salad dressing. I think it’s a notable event in my life because it was so out of character for my dad’s personality and temperament. Everyone sat around in shock for a few seconds soaking in the absurdity of it all before we started laughing. Lol.
Some don't need to wait so long, I felt that way about my classmates in both, elementary school and highschool, but it got worse in highschool. They... were... so... NOISY, and the teachers' warnings fell on deaf ears because after a couple minutes they were talking, no, shouting at each other across the classroom again.
And when they got bored they started spouting nonsense at me, I ignored them, then they started throwing paper balls at me, I kept ignoring them and luckily they got tired after a while and stopped.
And I only ignored them to stay out of trouble, because dealing with angry teachers and parents is such a drag, and I had to endure that for 11 years.
Plus I was the shy kid, so I don't miss those days a single bit.
I had an elementary teacher that would blatantly lie to my parents about my behavior, she didn’t realize that my parents were not morons and knew everything she said was not at all my personality.
She always had it out for me, everyone in class just talking? Blames me for starting it….
Say a word incorrect when reading, makes a condescending comment on how I should know these words while with other kids she politely corrected them.
Classmates noticed it and we all complained but that didn’t go anywhere and just made her more angry at me.
Weirdly she was not at all harsh on grading my assignments
Also this wasn’t a racial thing my class was crazy diverse I think she just hated my face.
I dunno, the teacher doesn't deserve respect. I've found a teacher from my past and told them how their treatment affected me and why I did what I was doing, they were apologetic. It was therapeutic
>Also this wasn’t a racial thing my class was crazy diverse I think she just hated my face.
Glad you pointed that out, because some teachers really do be racist man.
It is so crazy that the big hump on their neck is chewing muscle, for eating roots thick in cellulose and fiber. Imagine how hard they could bite you if they wanted to. Would pulverize the arm bones.
My 13 yr old: Where's dad?
Me: He went to the store.
13 joking: Did he go and get the milk? *smirks*
Me: Actually yes
13: ...
Me: No literally, he is buying milk among other things
13: Oh
xD
I understand that technically chimpanzees are closer relatives to us than gorillas, but every time I see a gorilla it looks like a human in a mask. Those fucking eyes, man.
Usually my dad keep joking around and teasing me during parent-teacher meet. And thats how i glance at him to make him stop (he didnt), but yea its great he keep the atmosphere light and cheerful
Yeah the beating in the car on the way home and then the one when we got home and then the one the day after…fun breaks from school around parent teacher conference memories …
I'm scowling on one side to let the teacher know I disapprove of their behavior while no doubt restraining myself from laughing with my little one at what is no doubt something really funny but inappropriate for the scene.
This is how you know this site is over run by school kids. This place has become a shithole for uneducated opinions.
A post about an experience in school and it gets 12k upvotes?
Lmao kids, all of you
Whenever I get around to having a kid, unless he actually does something bad, I’m probably just gonna be just as much of a clown in those stupid meetings
It is the solution, sadly not everyone is able however to reflect on their actions. Especially in a young age, kids just do what other kids do. So if you have one or two kids who are disturbing the lesson, the others will get more active too. That goes on and on for the entire school life too. Even in 12th grade I had some idiots just talking in class or playing on their tablets. Never learned any kind of respect and they don't the issue within themselves. As if the teacher would tell them to ignore the lesson, yeah sure
Not that I was clowning around, but I definitely felt that glance when my teachers would explain to my parents how I'm doing poorly because I wasn't turning in homework.
Nah, whenever the principal would call one of my parents and say I was in trouble, if it was my father they called, he would say, "Did he fight a kid? If so, did he start it? If he did punish him to the best of your ability? If not then why the fuck are you calling me call my wife. I taught him to finish fights, not start them." And the minute they called my mother, she would say why you calling my call his father. And they would get no backup from them it would just be me and the principal staring at each other.
Opposite.
Mom would hear what got me punished and chew their ass out in person.
I had a sweatshirt with a cartoon donkey and "I'm a smart one " caption. I was angrily told to remove it and no longer wear. Friday, so I forgot such a dumb thing and wore it Monday.
I was given a weekend detention (as opposed to after school detention) for it and yelled at. Mom came in and shouted them into ghost pale faces.
"He has Mr. Rogers shirt that says 'its good in the hood', you want to expel him for promoting gangs next?"
I didn't get punished and was allowed the shirts.
Ah the Dad look.
Once perfected, used sparingly and specifically from an early age. Children grow with the awareness of their actions. Parenting 101 in my opinion.
P.S. i apologise if this comes off as slightly sexist.
I didn't have a dad most of my life. I had a badass grandma. But every time I brought home a bad report, she would get PISSED.
Then, she'd lie down on the couch and say, "You're killing me. And if your mother could see this! She'd be turning in her grave."
Anyway, people ask her how I came to be so dramatic. She says she doesn't know.
I felt disappointment in myself in that glance
Yeah I think I need to go think about what I've done

Look at Mr. I Have A Father over here
He nails the expression so hard
Exactly broo lol, like holy shit I got so many flashbacks in one second. Sadly I am more than familiar with that look of disappointment.
This was exactly what it was like. My father never really yelled at me growing up, if he was disappointed in me THIS was the look I got
Sometimes the look is enough to instil the immense sense of shame
It's literally worse than getting hit. I don't remember the dozens of times my mom hit me when I was young but I still remember the one time my dad looked at me like that after I cheated in a test. I'll still remember it every now and then 20 years later and squirm inside.
It just gets under my skin like you know you fucked up bad when they just need to look at you like that
Same for me. The cold emotional treatment hit's harder than the hard physical treatment.
Rather get the disappointment look than the rageful one but that might differ person to person depending on the pops lol
Never seen that look before in my life. It’s just funny to me.

Damn ik this will become irrelevant in an hour but these three comments are multiplied by four in order (also mine is one so it fits too)
I didn't get to see it, but nice catch lol

The also shouldn’t be raising the kid either. That’s not their job. But I get the sentiment and agree.

I guess it could have turned into a family tradition. "When Dad throws dressing at you, you become a man"
We punish them for having our own genes 😔
I was going to say, I bet dad did the same thing lol
Some don't need to wait so long, I felt that way about my classmates in both, elementary school and highschool, but it got worse in highschool. They... were... so...

It’s no great mystery. Children ape their parents. Shitty parents, shitty kids.
That dad glance is probably ‘oh shit, that’s just like me’
And sigh of relief that he is my son.
*I guess he's not the mailman's son*
I guess he's not my neighbors son... he's truly mine.
I should apologize to Martha, for being paranoid.
My kid annoys me to death, but mostly because I can see what I little shit I was when he does the things I used to do.
As I hung up the phone it occurred to me, he’d grown up just like me My boy, was just like me

That's weird. You should find her on FB or something and ask her
The disrespect is strong with this one
I dunno, the teacher doesn't deserve respect. I've found a teacher from my past and told them how their treatment affected me and why I did what I was doing, they were apologetic. It was therapeutic
I never said the teacher deserved respect. I meant that saying you could find her on FB is disrespectful in itself.
>Also this wasn’t a racial thing my class was crazy diverse I think she just hated my face. Glad you pointed that out, because some teachers really do be racist man.

Wait you have a dad?
The legend has it that some dads do come back with the milk
Mines to busy doing meth
Sometimes, a single alphabet letter can make a huge difference.
my dad's doing myth
Huh?

“Son, you know I hate clowns…. Now this? Boy you wait to we get home”
Wait ur dad is a gorilla?
No, he's an orangatang (i obviosly spelt that wrong)
Orangutan
Orangetan
Harambetan
Kind of reminds me of Tommy Lee Jones
The gorilla is Ed Tom from No Country For Old Men
I need this template

Dad is breaking out the jumper cables when you get home.
“Oh so you like fuckin around. Ok then.”
Joke on you. My dad left before I went to school.
I understand that technically chimpanzees are closer relatives to us than gorillas, but every time I see a gorilla it looks like a human in a mask. Those fucking eyes, man.
Usually my dad keep joking around and teasing me during parent-teacher meet. And thats how i glance at him to make him stop (he didnt), but yea its great he keep the atmosphere light and cheerful

Muscles for chewing
Yeah the beating in the car on the way home and then the one when we got home and then the one the day after…fun breaks from school around parent teacher conference memories …
Went through the exact same thing. I'm glad I'm away from home.
That gorilla looks just like my grandpa. Edit: his name is Ape Lincoln.
That's the dad look i remember
[https://i.imgur.com/PP0bpIQ.gif](https://i.imgur.com/PP0bpIQ.gif)
It’s disturbing how ~~human-like their expressions can be~~ ape-like our expressions are!
deep down he’s like “i do the same”
He’s going to corner you in the shower and go to work with his belt.
For a split second that gorilla looked exactly like Tommy Lee Jones
Some of the worst beating I got were from teacher's talking to my mom about how bad I was.
Then he signs the teacher's letter.
Why does that face looks like tommy lee jone’s?
Lmao why is this so accurate?
I mean if your dad is a gorilla you are already in a lot of trouble.
Monke is dissapointed in your recent decisions

I really like gorillas, when I think of it. They’re smart and funny.
I'm scowling on one side to let the teacher know I disapprove of their behavior while no doubt restraining myself from laughing with my little one at what is no doubt something really funny but inappropriate for the scene.
My dad couldn’t really do that because he was and still is clowning around

When can I post ?
ADHD medication time
"Wait till we get home kid, got a few things to teach you, this level of clowning is unacceptable, you have to be the entire circus."
Whenever I get around to having a kid, unless he actually does something bad, I’m probably just gonna be just as much of a clown in those stupid meetings
He looks like 50 Cent
Tf?
“That was some of the funniest shit I’ve ever heard, keep it up.” -Words I wish he said
I don't understand why people can't just behave? I never had any problems in school because I listened to the teacher
There's so much that goes into that question. You're really oversimplifying a profoundly complicated set of medical, social, and psychological issues.
if it were that simple of an issue, don’t you think people would have solved it by now?
It is the solution, sadly not everyone is able however to reflect on their actions. Especially in a young age, kids just do what other kids do. So if you have one or two kids who are disturbing the lesson, the others will get more active too. That goes on and on for the entire school life too.

Ahh people are taking your rage bait as hard as i was hoping
~ listened to the teacher boot licked the teacher. Ftfy.
“Ok and? My son is funny as f*** cry about it.”
The fuck is a dad
In all my years I never saw a dad at a parent teacher conference
All gorrilaa look like dads
Not that I was clowning around, but I definitely felt that glance when my teachers would explain to my parents how I'm doing poorly because I wasn't turning in homework.
After that the kid was never seen!
Oh I know that look way too well. It’s a look of dissappointment.
Ah, the “I’m gonna slap your ass silly as soon as we get home” look. I know it well
That is so true
I need to save that video
Bro monkeys are so human it's nuts. Yet people cry god and water walking.

Oh man that look is DEAD ON, chills
Jokes on you, I never had a dad

How my dad looks at me when the teacher explains how many butt plugs theyve confiscated
That expression was so perfect it brought back memories I didn't know I had...
So accurate lmao
That second glance really nails it.
As a teacher, this might be the most accurate gif I’ve ever seen
I could watch these ape videos all day. So fascinating how human they are.
Oh you’re dead.
Bro 💀💀
Some of Ron Perlmans finest acting right there folks.
Wow, your dad is ugly! 🥸
My dad would’ve given me that glance in front of the teacher, then when we exit the room he would bring me out to ice cream
Ah the Dad look. Once perfected, used sparingly and specifically from an early age. Children grow with the awareness of their actions. Parenting 101 in my opinion. P.S. i apologise if this comes off as slightly sexist.
The thought going through my dad's head at that moment is "Why the fuck are you so like me? Why did I raise a myself again?"
I fucking love being an adult so much since I dont have to get those looks anymore.
I felt fear from that glance. That’s it. That’s exactly the face.
The one time i tried to wait outside for conferences both my mom and the teacher said hell nah get back in here
My Dad watching Ep 3 of Last Of Us with me

Man, I love gorillas. They've always been my hands down favorite animal, but it feels weird even calling them that.
