These ones are more fun that the ones where people get angry. I love the mix of people who are 100% fine with it, people who are fine with it but confused at first, and people who lean into it to troll back. Extra points for Susan being a delight and Dave being thrilled to have his turn in the meme.
@@AndrewDaniele87 Staged reactions typically involve a lot of ridiculously exaggerated face expressions, like "OMG", "WHAT?!", "that is AWESOME!", and so on.
lol, I am a teacher and I would find this pretty funny. I always tell the boys they can call me by my first name as soon as they graduate. Usually a heap of them come and shake my hand and say "Hi Phil!" immediately after the graduation ceremony :)
Totally! I went to a big public school, and even besides the luxurious interior shown in these clips, the demeanor of these teachers alone had me like 🤔
Its good to see that people still carry the torch of insubordination, even years after you're gone. Can almost breathe a sigh of relief that somebody is still keeping these teachers honest
Insubordination is always going to be there, it's never going to die and I'm happy about it too, though obviously this video proves that being an insubordinate doesn't mean you're an asshole to your superiors, you can break the student/teacher formal barrier without being a dick about it.
As a Swede, this is so weird to watch, because our teachers and classmates would probably give us those looks or possibly laugh at us if we called our teachers Mr., Mrs., or Miss. [last name]. If we did that it would sound like we reenacted the beginning of the last century. In Sweden we're all on a first name basis, except for in the military and with the royal family.
I am from Sweden as well, and I always hear my classmates call teachers by their first names, hah. Teachers in Sweden don't really have the formal authority of American teachers - they are just "those people who teach stuff". Sure, of course they have some level of authority in the sense that they are supposed to keep things in good order and care for their students and grade them etc, but they aren't called by any titles or anything like that.
Here in Brazil, we not only call professors by their first names, but many of them have nicknames created by the students, and they just accept it as their new identity.
Interesting to watch how people react differently to situations depending on their personality, from confident Joe at 1:45 who knows something's up, to demure Ned at 0:29 who lost his vitality, to joyful Susan at 1:29 with a bowl of fruit for others, to uptight Sue at 2:02 who overthinks everything
In Portugal, we usually call them “stor” or “stora”, short for "professor" (the equivalent to the English “teach”). Older generations called them "prof", which is an abbreviation of the beginning of the word instead of the end.
Yeah I talked about this with my Brazilian husband. Calling people here by their first name is too personal if they're an authority figure (like a teacher) or even someone else's parent. *Of course, not everyone gets offended, but there will inevitably be people that take it as disrespectful
In Mexico the way we address teachers ranges from calling them by their surname to a nickname. Each teacher can choose what they want to be called basically.
Oh, this is just hilarious and fantastic!! I love it how relaxed and laid back the teachers are. It looks like a really cool school, I would have liked to have gone to!!
idk, seemed to me like most of the guys were good with it or had a laugh, but (with some exceptions) most of the ladies didn't like it, or flat out pushed back. That said, Andy (fistbump +lambo??) and Michelle with the scarf were probably my overall favorites. xD
Why are they all so nice, that's actually so cool, even when I see my teachers outside of school I either don't think it's them or I actually say hi as if we are in school and this is just so cool how most of them are so chill with it.
Yo, you kidding? My oversized friend ran up the stairs yesterday and was breathing heavily. He yelled out to the nearest teacher by calling her "Mrs Rachel". But she only heard Rachel and got pissed. My guy got suspended for 2 days. India has a shitty sense of education .
I'm a teacher and when kids call me by my first name I always do that!! "Hi, Barry" - "Good morning, Mr Smith". Most kids don't actually WANT to call us by our first names. It makes them feel a bit insecure.
Back at school I liked how teachers called everyone by their surnames besides me 💀 idk if that was because I was nice or because my name is less common and they just liked it
This is great. Most had the right response, understanding that the video is harmless and the youth is exploring creativity in a healthy fashion. I generally don't respond when students use my first name, but knowing that this is a wholesome type of video would be something I would dig.
Mein Deutsch Lehrer rastet halt einfach richtig aus, wenn man so was sagt wie: Was geht? Oder sonstige Umgangssprache. Oder wenn man Englische Wörter benutzt... Translation: My German teacher hates it when we say something like what's up or other "modern slangs" Or if we use English words in german sentences, what is actually really common.
