Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for July 02, 2020

Remember when you saw your teachers in the real world? Bizarre, every time!

“It’s a prison, but one of our own making. So, yes, we do get to keep the keys for summer break out.”

Went to a small town school. Very Rural. Some of the teachers had farms and worked them. Never had this culture shock. Did treat the teacher/Superintendent/coach with very high levels of respect when I encountered them off campus, though. They were always respected and were symbols of authority. Sir and Mam were orders of the day.

Jeez!… It is nice to see you too children!

Where’s Mr. Macintosh?! That will blow their minds even more!

I went to a Catholic elementary school and during the summer I saw a nun without her normal penguin uniform on and was SO freaked out I ran from the store we were in…still makes me shutter…

Even the seagull seems stunned.

Wallace is so surprised. I was never REALLY shocked by this, as my teachers routinely spoke about their life outside school.

Always a classic shocker to see your teacher outside of the school.

Wavey-wave …. another word of the day.

And there is Rose, our kickball champion! I do hope she becomes a permanent side character.

And she even looks happy to be out of School. THE HORROR, THE HORROR!!!

I always looked someplace else in the hopes they wouldn’t see me.

It works like the holodecks on Star Trek ships. If the photonic people leave the holodeck room, they dissolve.

On a similar note, how about seeing your Doctor for the first time in a public place?

I once saw my English teacher on the beach in a Bikini… which sort of killed any attention the I paid to the subject being taught, the fact that she wore miniskirts had already damaged that…

Just the opposite. I have seen patients outside of the office, clinic or hospital. Once a little girl who I had not seen in six or seven years ran up to me and gave me the biggest hug. She was with her grandparents and they were shocked that she would do that. She turned to them and said, “This is doctor Teto, he cured my cancer.” The grandparents were very friendly after that. I always love seeing patients out in the world. Graduations and weddings are the greatest.

What pathetic drawing. This is meant to be funny?

It’s a Universal thing to freak out when you see your teachers out of their natural environment!!!

It’s all about context.
