I go to a public school and I am certainly not like that.TomNook post=18.73273.790466 said:
"I go to a private school and I'm a snobbish asshole. Good thing I'm rich though! Now hold my ascot, I'm going to make some tea."
See, I can overgeneralize a group of people too, it's a bad thing to really do though. Please, don't do it.
Oh, and I'm nice and never get into trouble. No stories to tell.
Well...I have a colorful history...I've made four teachers cry, two quit their jobs, in high school I would constantly have them question their own authority over me, or lack there of, slander a majority of those in the school system in a number of papers i've written, which upset a few teachers, and made another crack up, and in college, i've currently put a math teacher on the review board's agenda to fire, because he is far past his prime...
So you tell me...
So you tell me...
Ahem, I think you'll find we snobbish assholes refer to them as cravats. Ascot is such a...commoner word. And we don't make tea, we have our servants do it for us. On that note actually...Jeeves? Jeeves! Bring me some tea!
In case anyone can't work it out, I am of course, joking. I don't actually act like that. Well, not every day anyway
My geography teacher in grade 9 was an idiot who had no idea what he was doing. On several occasions, I would let people copy my work, word for word. 100% of the time, they would get a higher mark than me.
My grade 9 religion teacher was worse. We once had a debate regarding euthanasia (side note: when taking a religion class in a catholic school, any argument that contradicts the religion is wrong, no matter how well-thought out it is) that devolved into everyone bringing up the same tired old points over and over again, and a few people got carried away and started yelling. In the end, she decided to punish everyone for the actions of a few, by having everyone stay after class instead of going to lunch. I refused to put up with such bullshittery, and got up to leave. When the obligatory "sit back down" was uttered, I attempted to reason with her, only to be met with "this isn't a discussion." My response (thought, not said out loud) was "Fuck this, I'm gone."
Had an inevitable chat with the vice principal the next day, but he was surprisingly reasonable and I didn't get into any real trouble. He even told me that I didn't have to apologise to the teacher.

I had all kinds of fun with the teachers in high school. But as a warning to you over-achievers: take things slow when you get to university. Learn the ropes. They will fuck you.
Let?s see here. After kindergarten, I home schooled from that point on. Instead of spending that time cramming my head into books, I spent it learning about life in general, i.e. I can build a house, take a car apart and put it back together, survive for a week or so in the woods with a small backpack of items (blanket, hatchet, powerbars, first aid kit) and the like. And I also got my Eagle Scout. Really, I had all the skills I needed to be successful in law enforcement (what I plan on doing), but I just never got the diploma. Now, last year when I was 17, I could have jumped through a bunch of stupid hoops that my state wanted to get a high school one, but I said "fuck it, it's too much BS to wade through. I'll just get my GED.
I've gone to four classes from 8:30 to 2:00, twice a week, and while my teacher says that I'm about half-way to being ready for the exam, I want to be able to pass it with flying colors in order to ensure getting into the collage I have picked out (yes, they will take me into their class with a GED. And yes, it is one of the best schools in the state for law enforcement). To sum it up, I'm doing four years of high school in about two months. Give or take a week.
I'd say that qualifies as "making a mockery of the education system".

I was "caught" sharing stressrelief.exe in my word processing class...
the teacher told me I was not allowed to use my PC for the week and I would get F's on everything...
I didn't care, I was the PC geek everyone came to for help. so, not being able to do my work for a grade I played on the teacher's nerves when her PC locked up "I'll fix it for a C today..."
Most asked question, "hey how do you get the games on here?" I got a C for that too
(even the teacher asked me to teach her how to do it)

I've never really made a mockery of the Educational system except calling my English teacher a slut. But she calls herself a slut every second lesson so I don't think that's making a mockery of her... just agreeing with her.
You guys seem to have some very interesting stories. I myself have never done anything like some of you; I've never really gotten on a teacher's bad side, and, even if I hate the teacher, they end up liking me... it's strange really, I just keep my head down and do my work.
well, my time in k-12 grades was a mockery of the education system, i had to explain where africa was to my(either my K or 1, dont remember which) teacher, while i was reading the entire lord of the rings trilogy(+the hobbit)they had to keep confiscating the books so they could "teach me how to read" i must say "run spot run" is a stirring tale of... something too wonderful for words. after that they kicked me out for being a ***** (i got very unpopular with the other children... i wonder how) and then in high school i failed everything got called an idiot then got As and teacher praises in all the classes i didnt qualify for, then me and half of one of my classes banded together and tried to teach an incompetent computer teacher her subject and keep her a day ahead of class schedule(not to show age prejudice, but fossils shouldnt teach computers), after that i dropped out early, and then went to college.(many stories of corruption, downright illegal shit and of course; prejudice left out)
Opinionated papers. Usual only one opinion is right, so I played devils advocate. I either do a good job or get in a lot of trouble.
My law teacher tried to prove to us that 97% of the people on death row were black. It took her around 10 tiresome minutes to explain. I proved her incorrect (even had sources such as death penalty info website and others)
Online test are fun. We take them, then show our teacher the score. I just edit the web page and show her that. Some online test that actually can be submitted time you. Once I got mine to be submitted in "0 seconds."
Workstation accounts and packet analyzers win.

Only time I remember correcting my teacher was at polytechnic. In one test the techer had put in a true/false section in the end to give a couple of easy points. One of the questions was "Is ATA a serial connected interface?", try answering that with a yes or a no. Had to mention that to the teacher, who had not even noticed his mistake. The class was about computer hardware, so it was an easy one for me.
