20 Trapper Keepers That Will Almost Make You Wish You Were Going Back To School
There is something about getting new school supplies that makes you completely forget how annoying it is to go back to school. You totally ignore the stress of the tests and the pressure from your classmates, because all of your new pens and pencils are so perfect and new.
One of the best things about going back to school was getting yourself all organized to take on a whole new year. The best way to do that? A new Trapper Keeper, obviously! These perfect little treasures helped you keep all your notes and calendars in one place!
Did you ever have one? Do any of these look familiar?
A tiled pattern with dolphins was a good classic choice
Nothing is cooler than a jet plane!

This looks like the design that would go behind a 90s sitcom intro sequence and I am into it
Lisa Frank is always a good choice
Because look how cute these are? Polar bears and puffins are exactly what you need to make it through the school year!
It you are more interested in real animals you can get one with some koalas on it
But honestly there are more Lisa Frank options than anything else
Not sure what's going on here, but it makes little to no sense and I am okay with it
Some real classics

This one is mildly unpleasant to look at with your eyes, but i guess to each their own...
A truly majestic horse

Everything should have a puppy on it, it just makes it so much better
Interesting geometric shapes were VERY prevalent back then

8 Lies Our Parents Told Us That We Believed For An Embarrassingly Long Time
Our parents, our grandparents, and sometimes even our teachers would have to tell us things to make us do what was best for us. But sometimes, they seemed to have told us a bunch of lies that were just nothing more than downright false. Sure, it's understandable when they need to make sure we eat our veggies or go to bed early enough so we aren't cranky the next day, but honestly, some of the things our parents said were just completely false for no reason. I don't know why they have to lie to us. I mean, I guess
7 Weird Rules We Were Forced To Follow At School That We're Still Cranky About To This Day
Elementary school, middle school (or junior high depending on where in the country you are), and high school are probably the scariest years of your life. Yes, there is all this propaganda that claims that they are "the best years of your life," but if that's true, then oh boy... There were so many rules and regulations, all of which were claiming to be in place for our own good, but a lot of the time it felt as though they were just completely ridiculous. Do you ever wonder if it was just a crazy power trip? Were they just
They Told Us They Could Erase Pen, But It Turns Out Blue Erasers Have An Entirely Different Purpose
Going to class and using pen was a pretty confident move. What, you don't think you're going to make a mistake? I spell my own name wrong on a regular basis, how can you be so sure of yourself? Well, then came those blue erasers. The so-called pen erasers would help even those who are overconfident in their spelling abilities. In theory, they were supposed to remove the pen from your paper, or at least that's what we all thought. Instead, we would be left with torn paper and illegible notes. I was always terrified of writing in pen, so
7 Things The "Bad Kids" In Your Class Always Did No Matter How Much The Teacher Yelled
As a former good-two-shoes, I can't pretend like I did any of those cool "bad" kid things, but I do remember seeing them all happen. Elementary school was basically a battle between the teachers and the students, and their weapons may not have been very advanced, but they were effective. A teacher could assign as much homework as they wanted, but as a kid, your attacks are limited. You don't have a lot of things you can do that will solidify your cool kid status without having you kicked out of school. It wasn't easy, but I guess some of
