    I had this exact scenario with a substitute teacher when I was in Kindergarten because I made a purple tree, and accidentally destroyed her because she said “Real trees aren’t purple” to which I replied “I know, but this isn’t a real tree it’s a coloring page and I like purple”. She was pissed and my mom was called, who pretty much agreed with me. My normal teacher Mrs.K would have been like fuck yeah dude purple trees, but she was sick that day lol.

      ??? But… there are purple trees? Ornamental Plums, Japanese Maples, certain Redbud varieties… did this lady never go outside?

      I guess they’re all more of a reddish purple, but still…
