What the fuck was his problem?

what the fuck was his problem?

PTSD, probably.
Also, considering how insufferable all the kids on that show are, can you blame him?

Massive hypertension, mild misogyny, and PTSD.

hello, tumblr

Had to deal with teenagers everyday and wasn't a massive ponce or a lazy fucking idiot.
Were he able to care less, dumb or bereft of dignity and selfrespect he would have been fine. Honestly he should have taught at a private school. Things would have turned out better. He wouldn't have turned into such a fucking mess.

He cared too much.

Who?

The character is literally called a misogynist a couple of times and makes several misogynistic remarks. Does using the word "misogyny" automatically makes someone "tumblr"?

The vocabulary people use is generally indicative of certain elements of their social status and intellectual/ideological positionings, yes.

His PROBLEM was that instead of doing something FULFILLING and MEANINGFUL, he was TRAPPED in a DEAD END JOB trying to educate a bunch of UNGRATEFUL, DEGENERATE MORONS! AAAUUUGGGHHH!

what a memelord
does using the word memelord make me a /r/edditor?

No. It makes you a faggot

This is the correct answer.

Emphasizing the wrong part of words.

He had to deal with decades of Kevins and Brittanies, suffered from a gambling addiction at some point in his past(and in the present,) his boss is a fucking tyrannical bitch who embezzles school funding for herself and somehow can keep her job even after the soda debacle she created.

His best and seemingly only friend is a too-sensitive co-worker who's in a relationship with the meanest, most bitter woman in town and it borderlines on abusive (yet they still somehow manage to make it work) and if he's a reliable narrator, his mother was neglectful towards him.

DeMartino was once a good guy with some hang ups who wanted to teach kids. This is what his attempts have come to, but at least he helped inspire all those campers enough to where he felt satisfaction in his life, however briefly.

But Demartino wasen't a misogynist some of his female students call him that way because he challenge them instead of giving them a easy note, the thing is Demartino wasen't a really a bad teacher because he didn't underestimate his students, remember when he goes to camp with O'neil and Daria, he goes apeshit because he thinks should express their anger and explore even if is in a destructive way

That wasn't the question, however.

What problem? Go back and watch the episodes. Considering he's had a career of Kevin and Brittany-style answers to very simple questions, you'd be on edge too.

- he was raised by his single mom who put him with their strange neighbors whenever she brought a date home.
- he has a gambling problem
- he was in some kind of armed combat situation
- he's disgruntled over teaching the children of rich yuppies while his own salary is barely enough to cover the groceries
- his best friend married his mother
And that's just the stuff we know about.

>raped by repellent harpy college

Sup Forums and /k/ didn't exist yet for him to safely vent his frustrations

he is a teacher in the most ungrateful educational system in the west.

wait wasn't that O'Neill who got raped?

>makes several misogynistic remarks

He never does that. Ever.
