I don’t know if it ever happened to OOP, but I distinctly remember hearing something like this back in high school. Everyone was talking about how something basically like this story happened to a kid a few towns over. The post is leaving out a lot of details though, like how the teacher was confined to a wheelchair for the next year, and had to wear this giant fucked up halo headgear device for the next three. There was this huge police investigation too into whether it was a real accident or if the kid had been trying to mask an assault on the teacher for some reason. It got really heated in the local community, there was an alderman trying to accuse the kid of doing some kind of gang hit because he’d happened to be wearing a blue shirt that day and also had a blue bandanna in his backpack (he was a farm kid). But then it turned out that the alderman was the uncle of the captain of the football team in the town over the other side, and he was trying to get the farm kid arrested so he wouldn’t be able to play in the state playoffs. It was really fucked up, but that kind of shit just happened in the 90s, like when in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer’s table.

Holy shit, a real-life faux shittymorph encounter that I fell for hook, line, and sinker.
God bless.
Wasn’t part of it that the name was shittymorph and they just bet you didn’t read it?
I didn’t see @Apeman42@lemmy.world coming either
