#tbh I had this idea ever since this meme went viral and now since the event is re-releasing i saw the opportunity and took it

[tinyfantasminha]

This is literally how beanfest ended right

📘 more please and thank you

always happy to provide ❤

i call this one tiktok fic, and it's an offshoot of nothing new. this is a screenshot from the notes doc for that fic (i'm the yellow points, @jemmo are the reg ones):

and then the thought of Pat and Pran's dad sending each other songs and eventually all sorts of dad jokes & architecture/engineering & probably finishing memes was borne and then it...spiraled...

so, first things first: big huge kudos to the actor who played Pran's dad. yall. i love Pran's dad. the actor really went "my character may not have a name, but he has big heart eyes for his wife!!!!" he didn't have to give us that, but he did, and i love him for it.

at some point, Pat's going to get him onto tiktok to watch something, and then Pran's dad is going to make a video that pretty much sums up into ":D i love my wife!! :D" and it goes viral. he's going to get a decent following of people being like "omg, he's so wholesome!!" and then he'll post something with Pat in it, and that's when the story idea REALLY takes off

I'm just copy-pasting mine and jemmo's latest rant about this one under the readmore because it makes me smile and tbh i wouldnt be able to properly summarize this one anyways, so please enjoy 😂❤

thecookiemonster77

someone sent another 📓 request and I’m trying to remember the silly notes we had over Pat and Pran’s dad getting into tiktok so they could be all 😍 over their partners

except then I started thinking about Pat being 😍 and little has been accomplished since

jemmo

omg YEASSSSS I remember that tiktok rant and about how both dissaya and pran would shake their heads and bond over their ridiculous partners being the cutest dumbasses gotta love them

thecookiemonster77

I remember so little of the tiktok thing ajdjdjjd like???? vaguely recall it started from Pat sending Pran’s dad ridiculous videos I think??????? I want to say it began bc Pran’s dad was like “my sons mortified I know what tiktok is so I’m here to embarrass him terribly” and ramble on about ?????SOMETHING fuck if ik what. but he keeps going and keeps rambling about how much he loves his wife and sons bc ofc he does, he’s just filled with love!!! and then one of them takes off and whelp, Pran’s never escaping now. Pat why are you laughing this is terri���WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU HAVE ONE TOO

i think that’s how it went at least idk

I wish I thought to write down the notable tiktoks from this fic tho im drawing a total blank ajsjdj

jemmo

yeahhhhhh it was that it was an extension of pat becoming one of the family and getting close to pran’s dad and them starting out sharing TikTok’s with bad engineering jokes and then pran’s dad download the app and it goes downhill from there. and then he goes viral for being the best husband ever. and then when pran’s dad and pat start doing tiktok trends and dances together and ppl in the comments are like who’s this guy???? pran’s dad is way too giddy to be like ‘he’s my sons boyfriend’ and now ppl are like 10x more invested in this family much to pran’s dismay, except he’s more than happy to find the perfect lighting to do pat justice in videos

thecookiemonster77

RIGHT THANK YOU hndjdjd it’s so fuzzy in my head 😂😂

I remember Pran’s tiktok being about Pat and Pats about him and Pran’s dad being shamelessly embarrassing on main but that’s about it whoops

also Pran swings wildly between giving Pat the most perfect lighting and trying to make him look as ugly as possible (gl dude that ain’t possible)

jemmo

i feel like pran started his tiktok bc pat was getting so many thirst comments and he needed to stake his claim (not that he’d let pat know that) and now he just uses it to capture all the moments of pat being cute or doing nice things for him or just being pat yknow

pran’s tiktok is basically just the biggest flex ever

and pats is a combination of him being whipped for pran and doing stupid shit with his friends

thecookiemonster77

pran couldnt read the comments on his dad or pats videos if he didnt have an account and if hes going to HAVE to get one of these stupid things, hes going to Win

jemmo

oh ofc it’s a competition. and ofc ppl just love him (and all the cute pat moments he captures) so much that he always gets the most views

thecookiemonster77

pran stay winning lmao

one of pran's top tiktoks should just be him 'sleeping' on pat's naked abs

flex of the century

thecookiemonster77

one of pat's is him trying to follow one of prans recipes. sometimes he'll read an instruction and be like "..??? WHELP time for me to google, idk why my boyfriend expects me to know what the fuck a 'double boiler' is but here we are" and "boyfriend's recipe SAYS its mild but thats twelve chilis, so we will be doing only 3 because i am a baby and i dont want to die"

thecookiemonster77

prans comment on the video: thats not what you said last night

pat: me dying because im your baby and me dying because i am a baby are two entirely separate things mr parakul

jemmo

😂😂😂😂😂 I AM LIVING YESSSSSSS

first of all pran’s top tiktoks just consist of him filming pat while he’s still asleep nestled into his side nose pressed against his neck bc ppl need to know pat is his baby

jemmo

and omgggg the cooking one 😂😂 he’d upload a second one that’s just outtakes that consist of him spilling stuff and generally making a mess and being like ‘no oh no pran will kill me if I don’t clean this up’, him nearly burning himself and him calling to pran from off camera or upstairs of whatever like ‘pran plssss help me I don’t get it’ but then you hear pran behind the camera like ‘no you have to do it yourself that’s the challenge’. basically pats about to be super pouty but pran is gonna be so so proud of him when he pulls it off

thecookiemonster77

u know that thing where ohm nuzzle's nanon's shoulder/arm before flopping against him? thats approximately 60% of prans tiktok ajdhfjh

pat feeding pran his creation tho and when pran smiles pats like "WE HAVE ACHIEVED A DIMPLE THIS IS DIMPLE APPROVED"

jemmo

Ok but why do I also kinda want pran’s tiktok to be him retelling all the dumb cheesy shit pat says and doing an impression of him. like he doesnt get it on camera so he’s like ‘today me and my boyfriend were playing mario kart and when I beat him he said *pat cheesy voice* it’s ok bc im the fastest at running laps in your heart 🥰🥰’

pat watches them and is like ‘hey i do not sound that pouty’, then pran’s goes ‘you’re doing it rn dumbass’

jemmo

also pat rating everything he does on a pran dimple scale is now canon. he has a notebook that documents all dimple types, and probably a tiktok about it too

thecookiemonster77

okay but then Pran starts doing “my boyfriend vs my impression of him” videos and those RLY take off 😂🥺

jemmo

omg yessssssss. and pat can’t even complain bc they’re ridiculously accurate and adorable and he gets to see pran act like a dumbass it’s a win win really

thecookiemonster77

and when he points this out Pran will destroy him sexually, which makes it an even BIGGER win win

jemmo

Basically no matter what pat will always be winning bc no matter what he does pran’s gonna eat it up

thecookiemonster77

and whatever pran does he'll love

no way to lose!!!

jemmo

also pran definitely posts him singing his songs on tiktok and pat always duets them and sings along badly but thats not gonna stop him from being pran’s number 1 fan

thecookiemonster77

YEAH

i was actually thinking about those tiktoks where people will take like, cat sounds and then compose a song around them

pran would do those sorts of tiktoks and RULE at them

jemmo

omg yessssssss it’s just pran flexing his composition skills

And yes he might be using cat noises but the song is still gonna be about pat, don’t underestimate his obsession

thecookiemonster77

ofc its about pat pran has a theme he needs to stick to

hjfjhdfjhfjhfjhf wait oh my god

pat's little 'aow' sounds

pran makes a compilation of those and then does the trend thingy where he makes a song out of them

"there you go, i wrote a song where the lyrics weren't about my boyfriend"

jemmo

all the comments not having a clue what the noise is but pran being all smug like if I can’t write the song about him the song can just be him

thecookiemonster77

EVERYTHING is about him, and pran cant wait to rub everyone's face in it 😂

A teacher has gone viral for using DIY meme stickers to grade exams.

Ainee Fatima told INSIDER that she just started using the stickers this week, but she's had the idea for a while.

Fatima said her students loved the stickers.

She teaches media studies, so the memes were especially relevant.

Sometimes, it can feel like teens are speaking another language. So instead of trying to fight it, one high school English and media studies teacher decided to try getting on her students' level by using memes to grade exams.

On Wednesday, Ainee Fatima, a 27-year-old English and media studies teacher based out of Franklin Park, Illinois, shared a video of herself using her meme stickers to grade exams on Twitter — and people loved it. In just over a day, her post went viral.

I love grading with my new stickers! pic.twitter.com/4K66qQblSJ

— ainee f. (@axfxq) October 17, 2018

"I love grading with my new stickers!" she wrote. In a follow-up post, Fatima explained that she makes the stickers herself and shared the template.

I can no longer send this through DM, I hit some weird limit! Here's the link to it :) Enjoy fellow teachers! Here u go! https://t.co/Ad3ImXaQIV

— ainee f. (@axfxq) October 18, 2018

Fatima told INSIDER she made the stickers on the spur of the moment, although she'd been considering it for a while, as her 12th-grade students love memes. 

"I was grading exams [on Wednesday] and started to get really frustrated at the answers my students were writing down, I thought 'I wish they could see my face right now,'" she said. "So I had sticker paper handy, made a quick template on the computer with Confused Nick Young's face and some positive Gordon Ramsay memes and printed them out!"

Don't worry, I did positive memes too! 😂 pic.twitter.com/rTfHCGKQwJ

— ainee f. (@axfxq) October 18, 2018

Fatima said that she wanted the memes to encourage learning and help erase the stigma that comes with a getting a bad grade on a test. She was happy to see that in action when she passed the graded exams back.

"I didn't print enough so not every wrong answer got a sticker so the students who did not receive a sticker for a wrong answer were actually asking if they could get one. It made them look at their exam and actually ask me to correct their answers for some credit," she said. "This is what I wanted!"

Online, people love the teacher's creativity. 

If I ever get a class with older students I’m doing this. Great strategy to connect with students and do your job!

this upcoming generation don’t know how lucky they are to have lit ass millennials as teachers lol https://t.co/qKdWQ7tqlP

— james (@phan1om_) October 18, 2018

This is going to help students learn. They pay way too close attention to what’s going on in them phones to ignore meme stickers. Good stuff IMO https://t.co/CvCK6oknnF

LMAOOOOO I WISH I GRADED BY HAND ID TOTALLY DO THIS

lmao i saw this on your story and was sad that I didn’t get to screen record it. I’m glad that it ended up on here bc these are the #teachergoals that I hope people strive for tbh LOLL https://t.co/Ywa3PRlspZ

Others are sharing how they use pop culture and memes in their classrooms.

Hi! I love your idea! I used the Cardi B meme for my hallpasses and my kids loved it. Could I also have your template 👀

— . (@adiammm) October 18, 2018

Love it!!! I’m a 12th grade counselor and this is the sign on my door lol. The kids love it and it’s a great way to connect with them. Also it’s probably more for my own entertainment than theirs hahaha. pic.twitter.com/9qiOfRCQTB

@daddydaniel28 literally made these a couple weeks ago and now 3 people have shown me this today 🤣🤣🤣 pic.twitter.com/FCCIY1lWg6

— Mrs. Tabeche (@MTabeche) October 18, 2018

I’ve always used memes in the classroom (above the whiteboard). It keeps students interested and yes, I also sold pop, juice, water, Gatorades and teas for my yearbook fundraiser. #CoolTeacher 😎 pic.twitter.com/yazoWzWfj5

Fatima said she doesn't know of other teachers at her school who incorporate pop culture or media into the classroom like this. But since she teaches Media Studies English she says this experience has been an interesting case study "about the power of viral media."

A new teacher this year, Fatima said this whole experience has been validating. She's had an outpouring of support from her fellow teachers and she said her students are "super stoked to have a 'famous' teacher." 

But at the end of the day, she just hopes she's making a difference. "Including pop culture and media in their curriculum will get your content and instruction across way farther than sticking to age-old content," she said. "It might seem silly but just having those few kids try a little harder, made my day! I have striven to be the teacher I needed when I was in school."
