I got a perfect score on the vocab test and she didn't

There were a few weeks when I was seated across from her and one day she was really struggling with graphing two-variable inequalities on the x-y plane, like x + 2y >= 5 or something.

The teacher was teaching a complicated way of figuring out which half to shade in. She wanted you to pick a 'test point' and my crush was getting hung up on how to choose the test point.

I said, look, you just put it in y = mx+b form as usual, and if it says y is greater than "something" you just shade in the upper half, and do the opposite if y is "less than something". Her eyes lit up and it gave me joy.

Then our teacher spent 5 minutes ranting about how this isn't the method the book teaches, and she doesn't know if my method will always give the right answer, so if you use mist's method on a test and get everything wrong don't come crying to her.

And my crush, dejected, never used the simple method.
