Dumb things that your teacher once did...

['-_-]

Hey, during our path of school, we have all encountered teachers who did something dumb or something memorable once happened to them, so why not share it with the rest of the world?
I'll begin: In my second year of highschool, this guy was making noises while my science teacher was writing on the board, she then turned around and gave the detention to the guy who was sitting in front of him.
Another one: In my fourth year of highschool, my other science teacher saves the last ten minutes of each class for questions of any sort regarding science, so the questioning began, until he said "Don't ask me everything,I don't know everthing, go use wikipedia!"

My music teacher in grade school was standing in front of a trombone player and criticizing him for not holding the slide-thingy correctly so he motioned with his hands how to do so. Well it worked wonders; the slide came right out and got him right in the nuts. We all had a good laugh.

Then I found out he was a pedophile, so apparently it was also karma who gave him the nutshot, not just the trombonist.

I was in 4th grade. We had a bloody hot teacher who decided that it would be a good idea to change her work attire. On November 13th, she came to work wearing a bikini that was a few sizes too small. We could ALMOST see her nipples. Needless to say, she was arrested and escorted from the school.

We had a hot geography teacher in year 9 who lent her usb memory stick to someone.
Turns out she had an album of pictures of her naked on it...

I had a Chemistry teacher who used to freeze live frogs in liquid nitrogen and smash them against a wall. Needless to say, when the parents got wind of this he was forced to cease and desist.

There used to be an English teacher at my high school that brought a coffin he had made for himself into class, sitting in it while he was teaching and having a rest in it while the students were all reading. He was swiftly removed for being flamin' bonkers, but I still wish I'd been in one of his classes at one point.

We have this substitute that tells a story, "I was driving to work one day when a deer jumped out of nowhere and I hit it. I got out of my car to see if it was ok. It looked like it was in pain, so i backed over it to make sure it was dead." -needless to say she easily earned the name deerkiller

That actually sounds quite cool...

My English teacher is illiterate, she didn't know how to pronounce the word Luger (as in, the German WW2 pistol) she said it as Lugger (Lug-gir). When i corrected her, she said "Young man, i have a Master's in English Literature" to which i responded "so?" - she didn't appreciate that.

Y'all is the plural form of you.

English teacher^

(While y'all is a plural of you, its not the technical one. The pluarl for of you is you. Y'all is accepted slang)

I had this science teacher one. A real *****. She would eat her lunch and drink coffee in the science lab which was a big no no. This one time half way through a class, she left the room and was gone for a good 20 minutes. A class mate went to the staffroom to see if she was there. She was there alright; eating her lunch of spaghetti.

My English teacher told me I would never be able to speak the language and made me fail the class. He also told me I'm a failure and no matter what I'll try I would never succeed at anything.

I was about 14 at the time, had read several books in English and was working part time building and fixing people's computers.

Looking at this thread, I'm noticing I'm not the only one with a tenuous grasp on reality.

My Psych teacher said "irregardless". Not exactly a huge moment, but one that made me question his intelligence none the less.

A Media arts teacher at my school couldn't find the play button on windows media player.

My biology teacher last year walked backwards into the classroom, as he was trying to pull a projector on a cart in through the door. The thought it was still lunchtime, and that the classroom was deserted. He walked in singing Katy Perry's 'Hot and Cold' and bobbing his head.

Needless to say, though, he was a really cool guy- very young, too. He taught us all about the burrowing elephants of Montreal, and of 'malk' (milk).

My English teacher tried to convince us that "Recent research has shown that carbon dating might be old and the world may only be 6000 years old"

I had not been exposed to fundies at that time and only had a vague idea of what religion really means.

Needless to say, I spoke out and it was my first step towards atheism

You lucky son of a...

I had an English teacher who mispronounced a word (and I forget what said word was) so often, that I eventually got fed up, fetched a dictionary, and plopped it down in front of her.

And after looking at the word's correct pronunciation, she says, "Well, obviously this dictionary is wrong."

Did you end it there, or did you grab many, many different editions of dictionaries until she admitted fault?

OT: Don't remember any. I'll see if I do later.
