Dude. If my lit teacher liked MCR I would freak.

In a good way though. It'd be awesome, cause no one here likes MCR like me. And it'd be cool to have an adult to talk to thier music about.

I'd love it.

it would be awesome to have a teacher who likes the same bands than me.....last year we had to play our favorite song in class and I played ''Helena''(i played the video) and well....first: my whole class was yawning and laughing at me and second: my teacher asked me who were those freaks......I was....so pissed! So yeah, it would be freaking awesome to have a teacher like you!! your students are so lucky!

I had to do a english assignment last year where I had to analyze five songs.
I almost did My Chemical Romance, and to this day I don't know why I didn't=/

Ok, this is going to sound like a weird question, but here goes. I'm a high school English teacher (I'm 28 years old) but am completely insanely obsessed with music of all kinds and adore MCR beyond all sense. So, those of you in school, would you think one of your teachers was really weird if they like MCR or would you think it's kinda cool? I'm just curious what your reaction would be...
Thanks!!

PS(I'm not one of those teachers that still tries to act/dress like a teenager or anything like that, but I just tend to have tastes in things like music and movies that are closer to what younger people like than what older people like- if that makes any sense.)


My Social Studies teacher likes them. She's like 27. I brought my CD's to class so all the people can listen to them. And now she likes them.

Phew...I'm glad you all think it would be cool and not totally weird. I'm totally music obsessed (all sorts, not just my chem, though they're one of my all time favorites-heh, I even got a My Chem related tattoo...bet my students would be surprised about that!) Anyways, I love working music into my lessons, espeically when we study poetry, and sometimes I think my students think I'm the weird one for being so nuts about music.
Oh well, at least the music crazy ones and I can relate to each otherSmile I've got a few punkish, non-Abercrombie kids in my classes and I'm really hoping they'll see I'm not going to judge them just because they have different interests/tastes and in fact, I probably have more in common with them than the Ambercrombie kids. I'm brand new at this school so I'm trying to play things a little safe at least to start, but I don't think it'll be long before my students get a sense of my tastes in music...I love it too much to hide it and I don't think anyone should have to hide the things they like, whatever they may be.

People that mock other people just because their tastes aren't the same are cruel-that goes for everyone-adults and kids!!
Thanks everyone for being so sweet to meSmile You all have made my day!

Well, I love english as it is, and right now, our english teacher is pregnant, so she wont be here for like a month or two after the baby. If I found out my teacher liked MCR, I would FREAK!!!!!!!!!! I'd be like "ZOMG! ME TOOOOOO!! HEHEH!!!!!!!!!!" like, right in her face.

i'd think that's awesome. i used to talk about the clash with my eastern civ teacher, and my brother's english teacher [who i'm gonna have this year] is a huge fan of tarantino's films... classes where the teachers are into stuff like that are usually more interesitng.

10th grade English...I had them do this little writing exercise today to warm up and one of their options was to write about their favorite band, it was pretty fun to see what people were into! Some of them definitely surprised me with the depth of the music they liked. I think they liked it becuase they got to write about something they're really into and it gave me some insight into them since I'm still getting to know them!

one of my english teachers last year was crazy into the kind of music i like. just about every day during journal/ reading time she would play the foo fighters. and we had a battle of the bands at a club in the city and she went and got totally wasted.

then my creative writing teacher gave us an assingment to bring in a song that would be the sound track to our life. i brought in demolition lovers, and when i got up to play it and told everyone what it was, they were all like O___O, but she thougth that it was awesome.

english teachers are the shit.

I honestly think it would be AWESOME to have a teacher that loved the same kind of music I did.
Let alone the same BAND.
That'd be hecka cool.
