Lo Tech Saves Hi Tech
I was kind of an annoying kid. While my school allowed us to use laptops, I would play video games. Primarily Warcraft 3 in class. I made no sound or anything so I wasn’t being a complete nuisance, but I wasn’t doing my work. One day, a teacher told me I couldn’t use my laptop.
As soon as she tried to control me, I got revenge. I happened to have a 1950s Remington Quiet-Riter portable, all-mechanical typewriter. It was anything but quiet, with all of the taka taka taka ding! That you’d expect from a typewriter.
After one full day of studiously taking notes and doing my assignments via typewriter, my teacher said I could use my laptop as long as I didn’t bring the typewriter to class. Story credit: Reddit / HelpfulCherry
