students

A bad roommate can make your home a living hell. When this student noticed their roommate was stealing their stuff, things got serious. This sort of strategy happens with food too, like this guy who ended up baking a cake full of habeneros. 

Well, that professor got exactly what they asked for. Sometimes, as a student you encounter a teacher who seems to carry on in such a way that indicates they're the one who ultimately needs to be schooled. Fortunately, these students had their wits about them, and happily, maliciously complied. Can't imagine that the teacher was too stoked about the outcome. 

School is typically your first opportunity in life to be done dirty by an uncaring monolith with corrupt administration, so it's no wonder it can be a place of rebellion. People remember when teachers are unfair, and come up with some clever ways to flout the rules.

School drama can be strange. While it's probably not advisable to use the mediocre work of students to get back at faculty, this teacher played it cool in an unfair situation. That said, teachers often totally misjudge their students, like these students in this social experiment. In a twist on teacher/student expectations, here's a student who won an art contest to spite their rude teacher.

Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about the most unexpected excuses that teachers received from students. We've got our fair share of excuses that were clearly blatant lies, and then we've got the brutal, unexpected reasons that kids didn't turn in assignments that were just crazy enough to be actual truths. You never know what could be going on in someone's life!

Sometimes people think it's the students that ae the most challenging part of a teacher's job. That's only true most of the time. It can actually be the parents trying to interfere too much with their kid's education. Sometimes a teacher can just look at a finished project and go, "looks like dad did a great job." Sometimes it goes the other way. Sometimes teachers have no faith in students but they succeed anyway, like this student who won an art contest to spite their rude teacher.

It's a whole lot presumptuous for this classmate to insist on a whole new snack day inspired by this person's free donuts, but they seemed to have gotten the picture. For another funny story of someone refusing to be bullied about donuts, here's a new employee who is not having free donut day.

Students are curious and motivated individuals especially when it comes to breaking the rules or mocking each other. They'll go to impressive lengths in order to tastefully vandalize restrooms or expertly cheat the system. You can't tell them it's the right thing to do, but it's at least impressive. To give the kids some credit, here's a Tumblr thread on a teacher who underestimated their students during a social experiment.

With so many classes going remote, it only makes sense that there would be a huge number of instances of students and teachers making some serious errors over video calls. There's students getting caught badmouthing their teachers, students getting extremely personal, and all sort of mishaps going on when people forget to turn off their mic.

This revenge story is truly inspirational for all the students out there that have ever suffered at the hands of presumptuous, toxic teachers that they were too afraid to stand up too. Because oh boy, does this student hatch just the kind of revenge plan that took patience and dedication; and ultimately paid off in a big and beautiful way. 

And with that, maybe there's evidence the world won't completely slip into utter chaos. Sure, the strangeness of students can result in some weird and stupid school stories, but that doesn't mean students are necessarily complete animals all the time. Sometimes it can be teachers who say weird and wild junk.

Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about the funniest and most ruthless reviews that students ever left for teachers. Students can get real creative with the rare insults when it comes to their final words on a particular teacher. Would expect nothing less. 

Back in school, many of us were tempted to write a goofy fake name or have a bunch of stupid place holding statements in essays like "Dumb evidence goes here god dammit." More times than we'd like to admit, we remembered and deleted them moments before turning in said essay. This time a student actually turned it in, tried to save themselves with an apology, and the professor had a sense of humor about it. It's not too far-fetched, teachers have to deal with dumb essays all the time.

Sounds like Mrs. Smith brought this on herself. She should've just kept it legit. 

Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about the various stunts that teachers pulled that people are still mad about. Honestly, with some of these it's understandable. Like, the teacher that was clipping his toenails in class. What's that madness about? There's a time and place for everything, prof.
