Angry playground equipment?

As it's already been established, 7th period is often a time when people are extremely funny. Funny...but also angry.

On a particularly stressful day, Kirk Council decided that he would visit our 7th period class. He sat down, wearing his sweatshirt, listening to his mp3 player, and most likely doing a whole host of other non-NFC-approved activities. He slid his chair over towards Rachel, who was not in a great mood, and started asking her questions. Now, typically Rachel is a nice person who would answer people's questions. The problem with that day; however, was that Kirk is a mumbler. He speaks low and quietly, most often incoherently. On a good day, mumbling can be extremely annoying, but when you are already in a bad mood, mumbling can lead you to lash out in anger. The conversation went something like this:

Kirk: (incoherent mumbled question)

Rachel: "What, Kirk?"

Kirk: (same question, mumbled, yet again)

Rachel: "What, Kirk?!"

Kirk: (MUMBLE, MUMBLE, MUMBLE)

Rachel: "WHAT, KIRK?!?!"

Kirk: (MUMBLE, QUESTION, MUMBLE)

Rachel: "Kirk, I am on a teeter-totter of just like madness right now."

Rachel's exclamation caught the entire class off guard and, needless to say, scared Kirk into speaking audibly the rest of class period. Now, no one knows where Rachel found this mystical playground toy, but it was definitely established that it is not from a happy place. Perhaps, somewhere, there is a teeter-totter of happiness, but the teetering and the tottering of Rachel Stafford can only be defined as madness. Rachel's bad day and Kirk's bad choice led to one of the funniest quotes that has adorned the blue walls of NFC.
