'[I told] her that I wasn't being suspended': Student stands up to Karen principal, proves her strict rules aren't in the handbook, gets suspension revoked

Who knew that sometimes being suspended isn't exactly a mandatory order? Personally, I was always too much of a "goodie two shoes" to test the waters, break the rules, and potentially get myself in trouble. As I've grown older, I have become less and less content with the various systems I have found myself trapped inside of, whether that be the system of higher education, the workforce, or the existential social system of what it means to be a human. In hindsight, a little part of me wishes I were more of a rebellious child, just so I could collect stories like this with repercussions that aren't actually that serious.
