In math class today, we were doing a worksheet and we needed a highlighter for it. I didn't have one so I poked the person in front of me, let's call him Craig, to get his attention to ask for one. I tapped him again, just to be safe. Then, Craig yells out "Stop hitting me with your pencil, Blake!" The teacher walks over and asks what happened, then Craig makes up a story of how I was hitting him because the kid next to me told him to. THE TEACHER DIDN'T EVEN ASK ME WHAT HAPPENED and he asked me to meet him after class. Teacher asks me what happened, and said I was lying to him after I told him what I did. He told me that "if I told you to jump off a bridge and land head first, would you do it?" LIKE WTF ALL I DID WAS ASK SOMEONE FOR A FUCKING HIGHLIGHTER AND MY TEACHER IS COMPARING IT TO HOSPITALIZING MYSELF???? Then he said that I had to write a letter of apology to Craig and that this is "disgusting, unacceptable behavior" like I knocked him out or some shit.
Tl;dr: My school is full of psychopathic assholes

This kind of bullshit is typical in school. You'll realize it later in life, but many adults/teachers are just as stupid as any child can be.
You can't really argue with 'em unfortunately, but in years to come you will look back and laugh... and then cry. And then maybe eat some some spaghetti.
