I walked into my 8 o'clock class to be told by my teacher that we have a surprise quiz to take. She hands out the quizzes face down and told us not to flip them over until told so. She then tells us to start. Everyone flips their quizzes over to see a piece of paper that says, "April Fools!". The guy next to me then bolts up from his desk, looks directly at my teacher and tells... Read More »
Revenge!
When I was in college, I was a creative writing major. For our senior project, we had to meet once a week with a group of other seniors and read each other's work. There was one ass who had a problem with the teacher because he'd failed him before, so his whole project was a (very) thinly veiled rant at our professor. He crossed the line with racist and homophobic remarks in his story though, so during the workshop one day I mentioned it wasn't fair to force the rest of us to read that every week. Later, a friend sent me a link to his blog, where he called me names like we were on the playground in first grade. He should have stopped there because his problem was with me, but he put in his thoughts about the rest of the class: wondering if one guy was gay and accusing him of staring at him all during class, lumping all the girls together as ugly hipters and such. Well, What could I do but use the easily acessible class mailing list to send the link to his blog to everyone and wait giddily for the chilly silence at our next meeting.
So I'm a 4th year uni student who has decided to add and English minor to my degree to help my employment prospects as a teacher. I knew a first year classroom would be painful but I forgot just how painful. We were reviewing some crappy poem and discussing what we could pick up from a first reading. Normal English, touchy feely bullcrap and then one girl took the cake. She raised... Read More »
My photography teacher showed our class the "God Made a Farmer" video on YouTube because the photography in it was actually really good. At the conclusion of the video YouTube suggestions popped up as always and I noticed in the bottom right corner a suggestion......for Pornhub. I tried to take a picture but I spent so much time laughing and showing everyone else that I missed... Read More »
I have a professor who gets annoyed if students wear apparel from other schools. He told us he won't mind people doing that in March if their favorite team "makes it to the big dance." The guy next to me says with a totally straight face, "You mean there's a dance?"
So in class my teacher was telling us how researchers think they found an area like the Garden of Eden. Then a girl in my class says "Wait so they found her (as in Eve)". This is the same girl who thought that Adam and Eve were still alive.
We were doing a Chemistry Practical in our class once, using very expensive chemicals that we had scarce amounts of. We had pipettes to ensure that we use a few drops and that nothing was lost. The teacher, went on and on about this fact, until he noticed two girls at the back chatting, ignoring him. He shouted out at them saying "Sarah, I hope you're listening, I have it on good...
