    They’re not trying to “fit in”, they’re trying to reach students with their own language. For those students’ benefit! Be nice to teachers…

        There is a psychology to using cringy memes. Can’t use them all the the time, and you need to fit the right cringe into the right place, but when you hit it, it does tend to make them remember a point they might not have.

        Much of teaching a classroom full of kids effectively involves a perverse mix of psychological warfare, manipulation, and entertainment. You should try it some time.
