whats the most ignorant thing one of your teachers have said?

[Lust]

Back in grade 9, my English teacher used to yell at the students. Telling them how they were dumbasses and wouldn't amount to anything in life.

"We can tell Christianity is the one true religion because..."
I walked out on that one.

 

[SL33TBL1ND]

"But everyone is Christian, Nic."

'Remember, the ball is round!'

No they aren't, Mr Santiago, they're cubical!

My teacher once said that JFK wasn't a good leader because he was killed. Ya we spent the rest of the lesson telling her just how retarded she actually was

You should have responded with "So you believe that Jesus was a bad leader and that we shouldn't listen to anything that he said about what is wrong and right?"

My flatmates mother died when we were at school. He's not the brightest of the class, but he doesn't have any form of mental problems. After the funeral, we were dropped off (Well..not him, obviously) back at school, and headed to English.
Teacher: "How was Michael?"
Me: "He's handling it surprisingly well."
Teacher: "He probably doesn't understand the magnitude of what's happened yet."
Class: "......*Silence*
Me: "YOU FUCKING ****!"

Got sent to the principals office, but was totally worth seeing the ***** get fired over it when the entire class backed me up on what had happened.

I'm sorry but, what the fuck?
Besides being phrased clumsily what the hell was said there that is worth your reaction and losing her job?

When someone dies it often takes a while to get over the shock of what has happened and actually realise that that person is gone. Hence the phrase "it may take a while to sink in" is commonly used to describe someone's emotions after a death.

No, no, he has a point. Basically, this teacher called the kid too retarded to realise his own mother was dead.

My teacher INSISTED that Greece wasn't a part of Europe. I even pointed at the FUCKING MAP we had in the class, and she still wouldn't concede.

When did this happen? Which class?

OT: Probably last year in Greek. The teacher was simply a dud. She was trying to teach us about Troy and stuff, didn't even know the story herself, and kicked a kid out of the class for correcting her once. Good times.

Uh... Wow, well... Being the Norwegian that I am, I have never experienced this. Because our teachers are supposed to keep personal opinions to themselves... And that we're pretty liberal from a US point of view.

Clearly this means that it is part of US education?

I'm sorry, but do you honestly think that a teacher making a slip of the tongue and saying something personal/opinionated means that it is encouraged and common practice in the US?

Our teacher are supposed to keep opinions to themselves too. Doesn't mean that some don't. And if the OP was offended by this he could have gotten that teacher fired or suspended.

So you got a teacher fired because she - perfectly reasonably - said that it was likely that he hadn't come to terms with what had happened yet?

When I was in Elementary School, my Gym Teacher told me that "You can't die from smoking cigarettes" .

"America. Is the capital of Asia.

Wait..."

Yes. A geography teacher.

No, the word retarded was never used, nor was the kid's intelligence ever questioned in any way. The teacher correctly identified the fact that "Michael" had not yet gotten over the initial shock of losing a loved one.

Maybe if the teacher had claimed "he doesn't understand.(period, full stop)" then you'd have a point. The word yet however implies that the knowledge will eventually come. The teacher may have phrased it awkwardly, but that doesn't warrant that reaction. If the teacher was in fact fired then it only proves that either the principal was an idiot, or both the poster and his class lied/exaggerated/bent the truth.

We had an old Soviet math teacher (means she did enforcement of some, from my perspective random, order). In a communist nerd rage, she took my notes and started jumping in front of the class about how this is the perfect example how not to do notes...

Our class was filled with idiots, though. Understandable reaction to that from her side, but still. She was too strict and those were MY notes.

"Well, but you must remember that Bullshit is an entertaining show."

He said that to me after he said that alcoholism is a disease. I said it was already proven to be BS by Bullshit. (It's included in Alcoholic Anynymous episode)

He didn't even bother to look at the damn episode, just outright judging it that it is completely false based solely on its nature.

What a load of shit. I got seriously offended, to think that they actually bring all the sources together and base them to a conclusion.

I went to a good school

 

[destroyer2k]

The first time I stared school teacher said that 5 and 2 is 1,7 avarage. And they even wanted to fail me because the average was to low (that I would need to repeat class).
