100% true story, this kid Kyle bust into Spanish class saying that the twin towers had been hit by a plane so the whole grade went into the science room and our teacher pulled out the wheelie TV and turned the broadcast news on just in time for us to see the second plane hit

My first two periods tried to go on like nothing was happening, then I went down for shop and the (awesome) shop teacher had the news on and was like "yeah classes are *not* important right now, we're watching".
