    Someone needs to teach me this trick of buying pizza with the pizza’s own money.

    “Dominoes hates this one weird trick.”

    Gotta love that the meme is pointing out how under appreciated the teacher is but then refers to the teacher as “it”.

    The disrespect is real.

      Playing devil’s advocate here: maybe they were trying to be inclusive by not specifiying gender but haven’t heard of they. The US education system is a joke in a lot of places so the (hypothetical) teacher may have to think twice before suggesting they change the it’s to their. But hey, at least the apostrophe is where it should be and I’d take that as a win for education.

      If I had to guess, the meme was probably made by someone who likely has English as a secondary language. I doubt there was any disrespect intended.

    I’m glad that my nephew’s teacher last year sent out a message to allow family to donate to those parties. I’ve paid for a few.

    I’m also sad that it has come to that.

    I think I’ve seen this same “meme” reposted several hundred times. On top of this a meme is supposed to incite laughter. I’m failing to see what’s comedic about this? Should be more creative.

    I volunteered at a summer camp in college and we had a $30 budget to feed 15 kids + 1.

    I bought four Little Caesars $5 dollar pizzas, some dollar store big sodas, and had enough money for big bags of chips.

    We made it work! 😭
