So this happened earlier today and I’m still dying inside.
I (19F) was in the middle of a group chat with some friends, sending memes about how much we’re all mentally checked out this semester. One of them sent this super dramatic TikTok screenshot that said, “Me walking into class knowing I did absolutely zero of the reading and still plan to fake confidence.”
I laughed and was gonna forward it to my best friend… except I accidentally sent it to my professor. Like, the one who gave us that exact reading.
To make it worse, I didn’t realize until he replied with:
“Confidence is key. But reading helps too :)”
I wanted to crawl into a hole. Now I have to walk into that class tomorrow pretending I have a shred of dignity left.
TL;DR: Sent a meme about not doing the reading to the professor who assigned the reading. He replied. I died.

Sounds like he got a laugh and is encouraging you to study.
Sounds like a cool professor tbh… Could have been much worse
You’re cool, the teacher probably had a good laugh. Now if you want to impress him, read the material. Btw having the teacher’s approval is far more valuable than 99% of everyone else
Awww I think he took it as the joke that it was. Clearly has a sense of humour, don’t overthink it.
