TEACHER “icks” are things that teachers do that students find fairly disgusting or they dislike it. An example of this can be if your friend dances in front of you and you find it so cringe. Some students were asked what are some things teachers do that give you an ick? “When their whole room or breath smells like coffee I’m not judging but being realistic.” said Kevin Gamez (9). People were also asked what they consider an ick. Some people say that an ick is something that makes them feel uncomfortable or just makes them cringe so hard.
There’s nothing wrong with what you do, but sometimes you can’t expect people to feel the same way about other people‘s actions. You might find a dance cute but others might find it very cringe and that’s not bad. And it can also be when someone was in a past relationship, who didn’t mind the actions of their old partner and now sees them and watches them do the same actions and gets irritated because they don’t see the person in the way they used to anymore.
“ I sometimes get an ick when teachers that I don’t like trying to be funny and nobody in the class laughs, but I feel bad because they try to make an effort but it just feels awkward, “ Elizabeth Montejano (10) said. There’s nothing wrong with trying to be funny or act a certain way. Sometimes students can’t control the way they feel about things and there’s nothing wrong with that cause others might not feel the same.
“ Teachers give me the biggest egg when a student bothers them and they just stand up right next to them and just keep staring at them without saying anything and it’s kinda awkward for the whole class as well.” Emma Gomez (11) stated. “ When teachers say they rather have Flex Time during their first period but get mad when students don’t show up” said Mrs. Hess “I hate when teachers are so touchy and get very close to you. Also when they’re heavy breathers I find it annoying”
Efrain Villa (12). People having icks is very normal, they don’t understand why they feel like that half of the time and sometimes it just bugs them for no reason. It also depends on your moods because there are possibilities that the things that bug you are happening and you don’t even realize it’s happening and other times you’ll realize right away. “ when they say jokes that aren’t even funny and expect the whole class to laugh but get disappointed when they don’t laugh.
They got all the dad jokes lol” said Mikaila Montejano (11) The ick saying is huge on TikTok. A lot of creators go and post about what gives them an ick and they complain to their followers about it and their followers relate to it and that video gets a lot of attention. It’s totally okay to have things that you get annoyed with easily.
