Dumbest Things Heard In School

[dontlooknow]

I recall one person in Government class saying, in all seriousness, "I think President Bush is doing a good job." The year was 2006.

That's an opinion, not a fact.

It actually shines worse on you than them to be so narrow-minded.

Yes it is an opinion.
Here's some other opinions for you:
The Nazis had the right idea.
Stalin wasn't such a bad guy.
Robert Mugabe is a decent human being.

See what I'm getting at?

And I'd appreciate it if you didn't insult me based on two sentences.

To be fair, insulting people based on two or less sentences is sort of what this forum?s about ? it?s exactly what you just did and it?s exactly what I?m about to do now:

?So, who actually wrote Anne Frank?s Diary??

(After observing someone drinking from a bottle of frozen water)
?Wow, that?s really clever. Why do you do that??
?So the water stays cold during a warm day.?
?Oh [short pause] but how do you get the ice in the bottle??

during sex ed class (this is the same guide 3 times)
"Guys can't get breast cancer ... can they?"
Teacher: what are the 3 ways to have sex
"oral, anal and .... VAGINAL!"
"You can't get AIDS if your a guy, cuz girls can't give it to you ... unless your gay"

(totally unrelated)
"are these windows see through?!"

(i sorry if the above post offended anyone)

"Grades matter!"

"Grades are good motivators. Aren't you motivated, when you get... uhm... yeah, you are, right?"

"Math is everywhere, without it we wouldn't be able to do anything!"

"People only improve when they work in groups!!"


The last one really made me chuckle. Good thing she (the teacher) didn't hear it.

Touché sir, you are terribly witty.

In 10th grade there was a student that thought buffalo wings were made from the actual wings of buffalo. Even the teacher called him a moron. He also thought that multi-ton nuclear submarines are vulnerable to being eaten by sharks.

Another conversation:
German class
Teacher: What countries speak German?
Me: Gemany Switzerland and Austria
Girl: Is that where kangaroos live?
Me: No, that's Australia
Girl: What's Australia?


In college history we watched an old movie starring Ronald Regan. His character gets his leg amputated.
Girl: So Regan had his leg amputated? I've seen him with both legs before.
Student: No, that was for the movie
Girl: So the movie is based on his life, right?
Me: No he was an actor
Girl: I thought he was the president

It took us ten minutes to convince her that Ronald Regan was an actor before he became a politician.

All of mine happened in my history class.

"When did pimps get canes?"
-----------------------------------------------
"If I went back in time and killed Hitler would we be learning about me instead of him right now?"
----------------------------------------------
"Who the hell is George Washington?"
"Its the guy on the dollar bill you idiot."
"He's on my money?! Why?!"
---------------------------------------------
"I bet I could have taken Ghandi in a fight."

Yeah... my classmates weren't the bright bunch of people.

In history class we were watching Band of Brothers and everybody kept asking what the "movie" was about and all the smart people said "Its not a movie its a mini series."
Another time in English class the teacher just finishes telling us about Shakespear and someone says "Whos Shakespear?" Freaking idiots.

I find it funny how you left the "e" off the end of shakespeare's name.

OT: *after 45 mins of subtraction in maths*

Person: So sir, if this is subtraction, whats taking away?

Me+ rest of class: *facepalm*

Well, we were off campus, but these are the things that a Black Militant said to me:

"Polytheism did not come before monotheism." [The first well documented was Atenism, which was founded in 14th century BCE. Abrahamic religion began not long afterwards. These faiths were preceded by pure polytheistic faith for a millennium.]

"Caucasians diverged from Africans 7000 years ago, which is why some people think the world was created 7000 years ago." [Distinct races came about 50,000 years ago.]

"Masons." Full-stop.

"People have existed for 7 trillion years." [200,000 years you mean. In fact the word 'trillion' and 'years' should never be in the same sentence.]

The sad part is that he's a Biology major like me, and that last statement makes me seriously doubt the credibility of education at my collage more than I already had.

It's more complicated than that.

The one I find the saddest is when people can't find Iraq on a map.

Not the stupidest thing I've heard, but stupidest thing that happened. In 5th grade, the teacher said at the end of sex ed "I hope you have a happy, healthy sex life." He was fired at the end of the year. Rot in hell, administrators. Rot in hell.

Aw, that is so retarded.

There are so many stupid things that people say at my school, that I have grown used to mind numbing stupidity.

Once we were having a debate on whether all shops should be open on sunday or not (I don't know why; this was in a maths lesson) and desperate to say something, the class idiot got up and said 'They need to all be open, because of emergencies, like... if a donkey gets pregnant.THEN WHAT WILL WE DO?!!'

 

[Azraellod]

oh, an interesting one from year 9 was from a geography lesson.

"why can you just not walk from england to america?"

it wasn't even a low set. it was supposedly top set.

how she got there i'll never know.

Today in Civics.


Question: How would you solve in illegal immigration problem?


Kid in class: Bomb Mexico.

I have to say this is less stupid and more hilarious.. just my opinion. I would have stood up and applauded.


For me it was not something that someone said, (though I have a few of those as well) it was having to learn the equation for finding the middle of a line on a graph without using a ruler.

I believe the equation was something like, find the square root of x2 - x1 * Y2 - y1...

I even asked my teacher of what possible practical use this information could ever be to anybody. His reply "people who work with graphs where their is a ruler shortage"

I really couldn't argue.

Teacher: "And What was the reaction with the magnesium and the flame"
