That sucked for you, Jason, Mr. Nickel went crazy today.

J-son!
00:32
Yeah, hang the bum! I bet  Mr. Nickel was just looking for someone to beat on.

M-Ah!
00:36
I agree.

S-mar
00:36
Yeah.  I am not a lawyer, but that was not fun or fair.  Whatever, see you at the soccer game tonight?

J-son!
00:36
Yup.  I can drive.

M-Ah!
00:36
(Devilish grin)

S-Mar
00:36
That's wonderful.  There's a party at Max's later tonight.  It's gonna a lot of fun.

J-son!
00:36
Wait, hold on, I have to be back home at 10.

M-Ah!
00:36
What? Screw that.  Max's parties are off the hook!

S-Mar
00:36
Yeah, everyone's going to be there.  It will get your mind off Mr. Nickel.

J-son!
00:36
I can't.

M-Ah!
00:36
Get over it!

S-Mar
00:36
Yes, thank gosh it's tonight.  Let's get happy.

J-son!
00:36
I can't.

M-Ah!
00:36
(Please explain why)

S-Mar
00:36
You're not in dog slobber, are you?

J-son!
00:36
(I'm not going to go into details, but you can figure it out)

J-son!
00:36
Yes, I have a 10 o'clock curfew.

M-Ah!
00:36
(You've broke my heart and I am sad)

S-Mar
00:36
Gad dang Mr. Nickel!

M-Ah!
00:36
Error, mates.  Her royal highness Jenna is online.

S-Mar
00:36
That's great (Sarcastic smile)

Princess Jenna
00:36
Hi fellow students, what is up?

S-Mar
00:36
Hi Jen

M-Ah!
00:36
hi

J-son!
00:36
hey

Princess Jenna
00:36
So oh my Gosh, what happened in class today?

S-Mar
00:36
(I don't think I need to tell you) Mr. Nickel went crazy.

M-Ah!
00:36
I agree

J-son!
00:36
Mr. Nickel should lay off the sugar packages (chill out.)

S-Mar
00:36
Laugh out loud

Princess Jenna
00:36
Jason, if your dog ate your computer, what are you using to write with now?

J-son!
00:36
(I don't want to talk about it)

M-Ah!
00:36
Hey Jenna, don't be so cruel.  Mr. Nickel was completely out of line.

Princess Jenna
00:36
Down Emma! I was just saying.  If Jason didn't make up that lame excuse, Mr. Nickel wouldn't have had anything to be mad about.

S-Mar
00:46
What are you Jenna? Are you the new school narc?

J-son!
00:46
Mates, that's enough.  Let's just let it go.

M-Ah!
00:46
Come on Jason, you're not going to let Jenna speak to you like that.

Princess Jenna
00:46
Hey Emma, Jason can speak for himself.  If you know something I don't that's fine, I'll chill out.

S-Mar
00:46
Gad dang, Jenna, it's not that.  It doesn't matter what Jason's excuse was, Mr. Nickel was totally freaking out at him when he shouldn't have been.

Princess Jenna
00:46
Well, how do you know until you know what happened?

J-son!
00:46
I was sick, can we leave it at that?

M-Ah!
00:46
No Jason, you don't owe any explanation to Princess Jenna. If she wants to be mean for the sake of being mean, then just let her.

Princess Jenna
00:46
You guys suck!  I was just trying to say hi.  You didn't have to start freaking out at me.

M-Ah!
00:46
Well you didn't have to harass the information out of Jason, and no one...

J-son!
00:46
Both of you, stop!  This is stupid and lame, and the two of you should just chill.

M-Ah!
00:46
Sorry Jason (I am sad over how I acted).

Princess Jenna
00:46
Yeah, sorry.

J-son!
00:46
It's not important.  Let's just leave it at that.

Princess Jenna
00:46
I have to leave and do my homework.  You guys should think about doing the same thing, all work and no play will make Mr. Nickel go away.  Later.

Princess Jenna
00:46
<Princess Jenna has switched her status to Out to Lunch and may not be able to receive or return messages.>

M-Ah!
00:46
Sorry about that, Jason.  Jenna can really be a snot some times.

S-Mar
00:46
Yeah, 'MAYBE YOU GUYS SHOULD THINK ABOUT DOING YOUR HOMEWORK.' Well said mom!

J-son!
00:46
Guys, Thanks for sticking up for me.

M-Ah!
00:46
You owe me one! (Joker winking)

S-Mar
00:46
Don't worry, be happy.  Someone should take that stick and hit Mr. Nickels with it.

M-Ah!
00:46
Laugh out loud! See how long it takes for that stupid toupee to go flying off his head.

S-Mar
00:46
(A frowning face with his hair being blown off his head)

J-son!
00:47
Laugh out loud.  We don't need a stick, we need a strong breeze.

S-Mar
00:47
I'll bring a fan to class tomorrow.

M-Ah!
00:47
Laugh out loud! Then everyone can see that there's more hair on his face there is on his head.

J-son!
00:47
Ha, replacement hair.

S-Mar
00:47
That street sweeper mustache of his? We should put some Nair in his coffee cup, see if we can make the patching baldness on his head match the patching baldness on his face.

J-son!
00:47
Ha, you could put some glue on that walky-talky of his, let that rip [his hair] off.

M-Ah!
00:47
Rolling on the floor laughing.  Someone better tell the class who's who.  They'd both look the same and be making the same sounds.

S-Mar
00:47
Ha.  It's Mr. Nickel the music box.

M-Ah!
00:47
What are you referring to, his new car?

S-Mar
00:47
No, that's his 'Nickel owes a dime' mobile.

J-son!
00:47
Laugh out loud, Nickel owes a dime! Good one.

M-Ah!
00:47
Laugh out loud.  No wonder Mr. Nickel is so bitter, he probably spent more money on that care than he makes in a year.

S-Mar
00:47
I agree, he doesn't want anyone to know he's a dumb school teacher.

M-Ah!
00:47
L@MCN@MJ.

J-son!
00:47
Pardon me?

M-Ah!
00:47
Look at My Car, Not at My Job.

S-Mar
00:47
haR haR haR!

J-son!
00:47
That's good.

M-Ah!
00:47
Someday soon, everything will be an acronym.

S-Mar
00:47
More like "I love making up ridiculously long acronyms because I think it makes me hip and cool"

M-Ah!
00:47
Be nice! We're talking about Mr. Nickel's car, not my creativity (Dimpled grin)

J-son!
00:47
I mean, did you guys see Mr. Nickel this morning?  A bug landed on his car and not only did he shoo it away, but he also checked where it had landed for scratch marks.

M-Ah!
00:47
Ha, a few scratch marks would do it some good.  I mean, lime green?  What is he, Asma's mother?

S-Mar
00:47
More like you when you're 21 - a nerd without a life.

J-son!
00:47
Asma, you're being too hard on Emma, she may be totally not cool, but she'll never be as lame as Mr. Nickel.

M-Ah!
00:47
You're both too kind (Hurt smiley face)

J-son!
00:47
haR haR haR.  Emma, you know I love you.

S-Mar
00:47
No, but seriously guys, we'd be doing a public service if we gave Mr. Nickel's car a new paint job.

J-son!
00:47
Totally, as a thank you for being such a great teacher.

M-Ah!
00:47
Ha, the best part is you couldn't get in trouble.  If you were caught, he'd probably have to pay you for the services.

S-Mar
00:47
I'm telling you, a couple of cans of spray paint, the "Nickel owes a Dime" mobile would be perfect.

J-son!
00:47
Totally, then he'd have tons of time for picking on us.

M-Ah!
00:47
Tons of time for giving us bad marks.

S-Mar
00:47
Tons of time for being an even bigger pain in the neck.  Do you think he puts that in his lesson plan?

J-son!
00:47
Totally, you can't be a pain in the neck like that without working on it.

M-Ah!
00:47
Laugh out loud.  Anyway, we'd better get going if we want to see the game.

S-Mar
00:47
Yeah, I'm going to get some dinner.  Later mates.

S-Mar
01:23
<S-Mar has signed out>

M-Ah!
01:51
Me too, what time are you going to come pick me up?

J-son!
01:51
I have some stuff to take care of, maybe an hour?

M-Ah!
01:51
That long?  What are you up to? (Winking smiley face)

J-son!
01:51
Nothing, I just have some stuff to do.

M-Ah!
01:51
That's cool.  Later gator.

J-son!
01:51
Talk to you later (see, I can use acronyms too)

M-Ah!
01:51
Laugh out Loud, ta ta my friend.
