History WMG / WaysideSchool

[[WMG: The 19th Story is the Astral Plane / [[CarlJung The Wayside Collective Unconscious]] / [[SouthPark Imagination Land]]]]

This is sort of like the above "The 19th Story is Purgatory" guess. When Wayside School was built, Miss Zarves was hired to be teach the 19th story. However, she was killed suddenly and the school felt it would be wrong to keep the floor open. Miss Zarves was looking forward to teaching and is so disappointed that she's able to stay and teach. The 19th story is treated as non-existent for so longer students think that it actually is and Miss Zarves has become a legend. Virginia and Nick were were young children when they died but continued to grow up in the afterlife of the 19th story. Ray Gunn was looking forward to attending Wayside School with Bebe but he died shortly after he started. Bebe feels that her parents [[TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth romanticize his memory as the perfect angel]] so she acts out and blames him for her behavior. Allison's trip was a near death experience. Either she was almost killed by Ron and Leslie bumping into her (physics obviously works differently there) or her negative thoughts about her school while passing between the 18th and 20th stories caused her to be pulled there (maybe "they" thought that's where she would prefer). In the end she chooses to live. Mark Miller is a different boy than Benjamin Nushmutt (Allison didn't seem to think that they looked alike). Mark was a boy that Benjamin knew and was jealous of: he as more talented and successful, people liked him more and his name was less confusing. Mark Miller died soon before Benjamin came to Wayside School so he decided to take his identity in hopes that Mark's success will rub off on him. Because of this, Mark was in limbo on the 19th story (it is confusing). Once Benjamin admits the truth, Mark is able to pass on.

If the builders used anything remotely resembling blueprints, the rooms should have been sideways. Nobody noticed that the building was being built sideways until it was finished, and the builders didn't forget about the 19th story, the just forgot that they remembered it. It can't be Miss Zarves, although her memories of never being noticed may have been a result of the creature trying to make her completely dependent upon it. The halloween episode where the original teacher returned was all a mass hallucination. The 30th story is actually one of the ''least'' weird stories, and the stories closer to the 19th are [[NightmareFuel too scary to knowingly put into a childrens' book]].

* The 19th story feeds into {{Degrassi}} which explains the whole black hole thing.

* The temporally and dimensionally transcendent 19th floor...complete with [[SomeoneElsesProblem perception filter]]...

* Falling short of that, she could even be a Creator's Pet for Mr. Sachar.

[[WMG: Wayside School is built upon a [[BuffytheVampireSlayer Hellmouth]]]]

Seriously. The series and show features an AdultChild CloudCuckoolander Teacher, Cows (in replace of cats) that roam the school, and the gym teacher is the OnlySaneMan.

[[WMG: Alternatively, it was built by [[{{Portal2}} Cave Johnson]]]]

[[WMG: Wayside is in built on a leacking gas main]]
Admit it, this makes sence.

[[WMG: Alternatively, it was built by [[{{Portal2}} Cave Johnson]]

[[WMG: The 19th Story is a [[Main/TheMatrix Matrix]].]]

[[WMG: The 19th story was built around the invisible [[HPLovecraft Old One]] that caused the strange events and sideways building in the first place.]]

[[WMG: Wayside is in [[TheOtherRainforest Seattle]], and feeds into [[ICarly Ridgeway High School]].]]

Seriously. The series and show features an AdultChild CloudCuckoolander Teacher, Cows (in replace of cats) that roam the school, and the gym teacher is the OnlySaneMan.

Fairly SelfExplanatory.

[[WMG: Wayside school was the school building designer's way of saying "[[{{Discworld}} I've got a giant tonker.]]"]]

[[WMG: Wayside School was desgined by [[{{Discworld}} Bloody Stupid Johnson.]]]]

'Nuff said.

* Wait, why can't it be Hell?
** The possibility of the 19th Story being Hell was directly mentioned in the book without using the word:
---> '''Myron:''' Maybe we're dead. Maybe we died and went to-
---> '''Allison:''' This isn't Heaven!
---> '''Myron:''' That wasn't what I was going to say.

[[WMG: The 19th Story is in Main/AnotherDimension.]]

[[WMG: Ms. Zarves is [[Main/AxisPowersHetalia Canada]].]]

Not ''the'' {{Discworld}} mind you, a discworld (perhaps one of the young discworlds that appear at the end of ''TheLightFantastic''). Where the main Discworld runs on NarrativeCausality Wayside's discworld runs on that special brand of logic that children follow.

"Miss Zarves teaches the class on the 19th story. There is no Miss Zarves. Understand? Good; explain it to me." Okay -- In the second book, Allison, for a while, didn't exist (for whatever reason) when she stumbled onto the 19th Story. The root cause of Miss Zarves' frustration in the third book is the fact that she and her class don't exist, and hence, nobody notices them (for obvious reasons) except the {{MIB}} because, well, they're {{MIB}}.

The Main/{{MIB}} keep Miss Zarves and her students from leaving to maintain the conspiracy. One of them is the Builder who "forgot" to build it.

[[WMG: The 19th Story is an WebOriginal/{{SCP|Foundation}}.]]
