Well, she was.
No denial from me — I was a strange little kid. While most adults treated me well and may even have found my precocious weirdness cute, in hindsight there were a few who must have found me terribly offensive. Chief among them was Mrs Tackett, my second grade arithmetic teacher, way back in — oh — 1989 or 1990.
She was a fat grape of a woman — she wore a dark purple jumpsuit all the time — with big white hair and long, thick fingernails. Every week she set aside time for show and tell, bizarre for an arithmetic class, but it wasted time she'd otherwise have to spend teaching. Once I went up in front of the class to share that I found it uncomfortable when book characters said or did embarrassing things.
Picking out the irony is left as an exercise for the reader.
When she finished early, she'd let us have a few minutes to play with the toys lying about her room. There were some blocks, I think, a few pop-up books and some board games. Some of it must have been math-related, but I can't imagine what — the teachers taught more than one subject and I don't recall anything being off limits.
Anyway. I liked her. Why? Who the fuck knows — children are capricious. I just did.
During play time, once, most of the games were taken; my classmates had begun to play but I had already become something of a loner. I walked to the front of the room to lean over a crate of books and read the title of whatever Tackett had assigned to her reading class.
Get that? I leaned over. Didn't touch anything, didn't move anything; I was reading the title of a book; the play time had just started.
She walked up behind me and spanked me hard on the ass. I looked at her; she pointed her index finger in my face and said "Don't you dare cry!". So I didn't. She didn't explain herself; I didn't realize I could complain. Why had a teacher I liked been such an asshole?
My seven-year-old brain couldn't fathom it, but now I know better; just because you like someone doesn't mean they like you. And they can be royal fucking assholes about it.
The incident turned out to be a formative what-the-fuck moment for me. Though it's clear now that she disliked me, and why, I haven't a clue what her reasons were for spanking me at that particular moment. I was doing nothing remotely against the rules; fuck — I was such a goody-little-two-shoes at the time that I would sooner have died than break a rule. I'd go back and ask her, but she's certainly retired by now — hopefully painfully sick in a nursing home somewhere, mind and body failing, forgotten by all of her students but the ones who despise her

looks like some nice old woodwork in that photo. too bad it seems they've pounded some nails into it just to string up some garish x-mas lights.
