Sophomore year, two girls were passing notes in my US History class. Now, on this day, our usual surly teacher was in a really good mood, laughing, joking with us. It was odd. So they commented on it.

When they were caught, he made one of the girls stand up and read it.

“I wonder why [he’s] in such a good mood?”

“I don’t know- maybe he hooked up with [french teacher]!”

The class was stunned. Our teacher just kind of blinked, then doubled over in laughter. No punishments were given, nothing. Usually, you would have been berated for that. It was pretty amazing.
