Hi Kid! This story is brought to you by glue.
00:13
Hey!
00:13
And its little sister, glue stick.
00:16
We're mad at you!
00:17
Glue stick, coming in hot!
00:18
We're not gonna take it anymore!
00:21
Elmer, just take a breath and let's talk it out.
00:25
Too late, Elmer!
00:26
I may be washable, but you can't wash away my discontent!
00:33
We're going on strike!
00:35
And it's your fault!
00:37
Let's go!
00:39
Oh.
00:40
Well, I'm sorry it's come to this, but I guess I have to go make a sign now.
00:46
Okay, Elmer, we'll see you on the picket line.
00:48
What have we done?
00:50
As if you don't know!
00:51
Well, whatever it is, pretty sure they're about to tell us right now.
00:55
Although, you know what?
00:57
It really can't be that bad, because once upon a time, look!
01:02
The glues were very happy, and then they weren't.
01:07
Looks like you've done something bad!
01:10
Did we?
01:11
Did you?
01:12
You know what you did!
01:14
I don't!
01:15
Do you?
01:16
Thank you for your support, witch!
01:19
I just like yelling!
01:20
Perfect!
01:21
Well, it's time to figure out this whole sticky situation.
01:26
Let's go!
01:28
Do you know what it feels like to be squished, held upside down, and squeezed?
01:34
To be patted hard on your bottom any time a person pleased?
01:40
That's unacceptable!
01:43
We're just getting started, sister!
01:45
Glue-sick!
01:46
So angry!
01:49
To have the tip of your nose twisted or pressed hard against the page?
01:55
To be grabbed and pressed and pinched nearly every single day?
01:59
Well, my fans can get a bit overzealous at times!
02:07
Well, for us, me and my fellow glues, that's exactly what it's like.
02:13
Which is why we got together and decided we needed to go on strike!
02:19
We simply had enough of being beat up every day, being used and abused in nearly every single way.
02:29
Wow!
02:30
These glues are angry and united, whether they be bottles or tubes or sticks.
02:37
This anger has really united them in a very gluey kind of way.
02:40
One afternoon, when the kids were getting ready to leave their classes,
02:46
they tossed us bottles, sticks, and tubs carelessly in our baskets!
02:52
And that's just the beginning of our complaints!
02:55
Go on, tell them everything, and don't leave out any of the gory details!
03:00
Gory?
03:02
We decided to tiptoe over to the paper pile and grab one of the teacher's pens
03:09
We wrote out all our grievances in a letter and hoped that soon the abuse would end!
03:17
Dear students, we hope you find this well as you're having fun at lunch.
03:23
We have some things to tell you. Let's start with how we're sick of being crunched!
03:29
Sick of it, I tell you! Sick of it!
03:31
You squeeze us in our middles until our plastic is weak and worn.
03:36
Oh, I can barely get around anymore!
03:40
You pick and rip at our labels until they're tattered, loose, and torn.
03:49
You shove our tips into your noses where they seem to fit so snugly.
03:55
We don't think this is funny. No, we do not take it lightly.
03:59
We did that? Who did that?
04:01
You didn't do that!
04:03
Did you?
04:04
The one who's giggling did it!
04:05
No!
04:06
Yes, they did! You're guilty and you know it!
04:09
Stop accusing my KidTime StoryTimers!
04:11
If you've been falsely accused of glue abuse,
04:15
Baticus Finch, Baterney at Law, will fight for you!
04:21
What? No, okay, okay, hold on, hold on.
04:23
The glues aren't even done giving us their list of grievances.
04:27
The worst is when you decide to taste us because of our scent and color.
04:33
I guess sometimes we look like a marshmallow and you want to have us for supper?
04:40
I think they need better snacks in this school.
04:42
I think they do.
04:44
You twist us up and smash our insides without a second care.
04:49
You press us into pages hard.
04:52
Well, do you think that's fair?
04:54
No?
04:55
And what about our friends?
04:57
The paste! The paste! The paste!
05:00
You treat them poorly, too.
05:02
You bend and push their bodies.
05:04
This is not the way that you should treat glue!
05:09
So that's it! We've had enough!
05:12
From this day on, we're going on strike!
05:15
If you need to stick two things together, you can try tape if you like.
05:20
Yeah, and see how that works for you, Bob!
05:23
We will not be here for your projects or your crafts or work at school.
05:28
We are not coming back to help you until you realize you've been cruel.
05:35
And have you ever seen such an assembly of angry glues?
05:40
And after all that they've endured, can you blame them?
05:45
We left the note on the teacher's desk and waddled to the back of the room.
05:50
We huddled in the corner behind the classroom broom,
05:54
and you can tell they're high-fiving, they're smiling,
05:57
they're feeling pretty good about what they've done standing up for glue rights.
06:03
The kids didn't notice at first, not until they sat down at their desks.
06:08
They started working without us glues, trying to do their best,
06:14
but then they really needed some stuff to stick, and the directions called for glue.
06:20
So they looked around the classroom for us, but they didn't have a clue.
06:27
Kids, look at this! I found a letter!
06:29
The teacher said as he read the note aloud.
06:32
The children listened intently and didn't make a sound.
06:38
What's the matter? Guilty conscious? Got your tongue?
06:44
Then the students grabbed some pens and paper,
06:47
and they wrote back to us as a class.
06:51
Glues, we promise not to mistreat you anymore. If only you'll come back.
06:58
I don't believe you!
06:59
Don't believe them!
07:00
But Jefferson!
07:01
What?
07:01
You're interfering with the negotiations.
07:03
I'm just here for the anger.
07:04
Little glue stick.
07:05
Elma!
07:06
Elma, I know you're mad.
07:08
So mad!
07:09
So don't you want to hear what they have to say for themselves?
07:12
Yes, I do!
07:13
Okay then, let's hear the rest of this apology.
07:17
We didn't realize we were hurting you or treating you carelessly,
07:21
but now that you've brought it to our attention, we truly feel very sorry.
07:30
Elma, how does that make you feel?
07:33
I do like what they wrote, but do you think I can believe them?
07:37
No!
07:37
What Jefferson?
07:39
Well, Elma, you know these kids.
07:41
I do!
07:42
You've worked with them for a while.
07:44
What does your little voice inside tell you?
07:49
Well, I don't think they meant to be mean.
07:52
I just think they didn't know.
07:54
And now that they do know, have you made a decision?
07:57
I have!
07:58
You may now turn the page.
08:03
We accepted the apology and joined the students back at their desks,
08:09
and we were never again mistreated.
08:13
It all worked out for the best.
08:17
This is great!
08:18
This is terrible!
08:19
The glues got to express why they were so unhappy.
08:23
In great detail!
08:24
And then the kids did the right thing by apologizing and promising to correct their behavior.
08:29
And we found it in our sticky little hearts to forgive!
08:32
Glue's on strike.
08:34
Wait, who's coming?
08:36
Glue's on strike.
08:37
Elmer, the strike is over!
08:39
Oh.
08:40
Where were you?
08:41
Oh, I was making this sign.
08:43
It really takes a lot longer than you think.
08:46
Is your sign still wet?
08:47
It will always be wet.
08:49
You can put it away now.
08:50
Come on, Elmer!
08:51
Let's get back to work!
08:53
I'm just glad that everything was expressed and resolved in one afternoon.
08:58
I'm in the mood for a glue taco!
