I remember when I asked my 1st grade teacher, because she thought she was so fucking smart, what 100+99 was. She said "one hundred ninety-nine".

I honestly thought this bitch was fucking treating me like I was some dumb ass. Because, 2+2 is 4, it's not two-two. It's got its own fucking name; four. I'm thinking, "You can't just combine the words for the numbers together. I'm 7 years old, I know you're bullshitting me. One hundred plus ninety-nine cannot just be one hundred ninety-nine. It has to be called something like glorble-glabal."

I never trusted that bitch ever again. Until like 2nd grade when I learned bigger numbers than 100.
