Humorous Wedding Speech By A Teacher
Thank you.
Thank you to my peers, for calling me a dike in the hallways and spreading rumors that I dropped out of school. I am very flattered that you would take time out of your day to talk about me, someone that you've never had a conversation with. I feel like a little celebrity just out of your guys' reach because I know that I am my own person and that it's a waste of my time to try to fit in. Can I also thank my "friends" who tell me that their life just isn't the same with me in it, and then never try to contact me? Yeah, you guys are the bomb.
Thank you to every teacher that gave me a bad grade, put me in detention, or made me feel like I was the stupidest person in the room. Out of all of the people I have experienced in my short 16 years, you have taught me the most. You made me realize that just because someone is older than me, doesn't mean that they deserve my respect. Hollerin' at my 7th grade English teacher for giving me a detention in for squishing my friend's potato and not even asking the full story.

I looked to you every chance that I could get and you comforted me. You have taught me that there are no comforting words that can change who you are. The only thing that can do that is you, you just have to take responsibility for yourself.
Thank you Gerke Elementary class of 2011; Ross High School classes of 2019-2015; all of my past, current, and future teachers; and finally, thank you everyone that told me no. Without all of these people, I would be a completely different
