*1 hour later*
"Ooh, a bouncing ball! Good work. Nice, a dancing Scratch Cat. Hey what's this? Wait... OMG ITS A FULL SCROLLING PLATFORMER THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE!"

*Me and my buddy get promoted to teaching assistant*

Did that really happen? Wow. Me and Albertt911 can surprise people with pretty much nothing.
*We make a Pong game. It's easy.*
"WOW! Seriously, did YOU do that?!"
"Yep. We just did."
"...*gasp*  "

I was working with a group of kids after school because they were trying to learn how to use Scratch, and we all had to make an animation about the Scratch Cat going to the movies. I put something together in a few minutes, and it was really simple- A cat gliding to the theater doors (Shrinking as he got closer to make it look more realistic), going inside the theater, ordering popcorn, then he entered the theater room where I made a black and white title screen doing the 3-2-1 countdown thing, and had the brightness effect flicker to make it look like an old movie. Everyone was, like "OMG    YOU'RE A GENIUS." And I had to explain everything to them.
And once, when everyone else was practicing, I made a quick, unrealistic, gravity  simulation, and everyone was amazed.
But then the teacher showed them the Scratch website... 

That happens a lot, lol.

*throws together short dumb animation of the scratch cat saying hi*
"OMG show us how to do it, Abiiiiiii!!!!!"
"It's obvious, really."
"SHOW US!"

Yeah, I really love it when...

"So, Helltank, what'd you create?"
"Nothing much, just a short this is sparta thing."
"OMG!!!!"

*turns to the class*
"HELLTANK IS AWESOME! HE CREATED A THIS IS SPARTA REMIX! OMG U MUST BE AN EXHACKER OR SOMETHING!"
"That's nothing."
*shows the guy a 08jackt game*

"Wait... 08jackt is Bill Gates right?"
"No, he's a random dude."

I used to Scratch at school (there was a programming class that used Scratch to teach C++), but I go to a different school now and their computers don't have Scratch. Now if I want to Scratch at school I have to bring my laptop. 

Ah. You should tell them you're a mod! They'd install it then!

Nah, that won't work. The school I go to is specifically designed for engineers in mind - MATLAB trumps Scratch any day over there.

Oh, but that's BORING! Scratch is awesomER!! 

No...I found it out myself...I don't like finding out things at school...but good question...
