It is the time of the year for celebrating the achievements of graduating students - and, more importantly, the internet judging their success solely on the wit of their year book quotes.
And we already have a winner. Lucky Simsaungo, who graduated this year, used a not-at-all-academic citation as her senior quote.
Turning the tables and forcing any unhelpful teachers to look something up, she referenced a great Stranger Things moment from Dustin.
In the scene, Dustin's looking for adult help but Mr Wheeler is being uncooperative. Not one to keep his feelings hidden, Dustin says:
Son of a bitch. You're really no help at all, you know that?
Lucky told Mashable about the inspiration behind the quote:
When quotes were due, I was struggling with a few teachers in particular who made students worry more about passing the class than actually making sure they learned what was taught.
I didn’t want to put that specific teacher on blast, so I just generalized it because I knew a lot of people who felt the same about different teachers.
She also clarified on Twitter that the quote wasn't aimed at every teacher.
Twitter loved it, obviously.
