The Great Cafeteria Cup Uprising

[00:00:00]The Great Cafeteria Cup Uprising. So, get this. At my high school, we had this principal, Mr. Henderson, who was absolutely obsessed with control. He decided, [music] out of nowhere, that blue was a distracting color. So, he banned all blue water bottles from campus. Can you believe that? On Monday, Sarah, who's basically our school hero, walks into lunch carrying a bright, neon blue tumbler. She wasn't even trying to be rebellious. She just liked her water cold. Henderson spots it from across the room, marches over, and tries to confiscate it, claiming it was inciting chaos. Well, the next day, the entire student body showed up wearing blue shirts. It was a silent stand against his ridiculous power trip. Henderson absolutely lost it, screaming over the intercom that blue was officially forbidden. But, the final straw, he tried to take a kid's inhaler because the case was navy blue. That kid's mom was a local news producer, and by Friday morning, Henderson was gone. We all stood in the quad holding up hundreds of blue cups in total glorious silence. It was, hands down, the best day of my entire life.
