teacher

There's dumb, and then there's Kevin. That's a whole different level of stupid right there. 

School and colleges can have some pretty draconian rules when it comes to mandatory attendance for testing. This can lead to some tense situations, and pretty interesting stories like this guy who had to show up looking scary sick to a test. In this case it was the teacher themselves who battled with the system.

You remember learning that the reason veins can appear blue is cause deoxygenated blood turns blue? Well that's total horseshit. Your blood doesn't turn blue, and the reason your veins might look that way is because blue and red light travel though skin with different levels of success, so what's reflected back is a more bluish color. If you just learned this, you may be intrigued by these people who learned basic stuff way too late. Anyway, this dad asked if he was wrong for being really persistent with a teacher teaching the wrong thing.

This teacher decided to ask her students to write letters to God. The replies are nothing short of comedy gold. Whatever questions you might've had about God don't hold a candle to these kids and their curious letters. 

Someone on AskReddit asked for teachers to share the worst examples of "my child can do no wrong" that they've encountered in the classroom. The entitlement flowing through these parents is obnoxiously strong. These teachers must've had a truly saint-like level of patience to deal with these kinds of parents. 

Everyone knows you don't just copy and paste from Wikipedia! You've gotta change some of those sentences around and throw in some synonyms to throw em off your trail. Students have always been pretty stupid. Are they getting dumber? Who knows. Maybe these days we just have much better ways of documenting the stupid. For more, here are teachers sharing the dumbest essays turned in by students.

One of the most frustrating parts of a teacher's job is having to deal with parents who don't want to be involved, don't want to put in the effort, or are absolutely insane. It provides a lot of insight into why their kids might be not doing well in school.

Ex-Kindergarten teacher Jessica Gentry's powerful post about quitting her job after 12 years of hard work went viral for a good reason. There's a great message in the post. Sounds like the kids haven't changed, it's the damn parents. At least that's the point she hammers down on off the bat. Check the rest of her message below. 

This high school sociology professor out of Lowell Massachusetts is ready to educate the masses on all that wild Generation Z slang! Are you ready for it. 

Everyone had one. Maybe you heard a rumor that two students got caught hooking up in a dumpster, or you found out the gym teacher started a fight club. You even could have had some kind of pooping bandit. Anyway, here are the crazy things that happened at people's schools that they'll be talking about for years. If this made you almost nostalgic, here are some salty people sharing what got banned from their schools.

Not only did he submit erotica, he submitted 10 pages of original, professional grade, high octane smut. The good stuff. We don't envy someone in a jam quite like this, but hopefully this isn't the end for our wordsmith. People have a history of sending the wrong thing to their professors, like this student who sent a bizarre cat photoinstead of an essay.

Many of us can thank our teachers for inspiring us to embrace our passions and take on careers that we didn't think we'd achieve in our wildest dreams. That's some teachers though. Other teachers are negligent, selfish bullies who have no respect for other people, and have no desire to help kids learn. Sometimes kids are dumb, but that's not necessarily the teacher's fault. These teachers here though are grade-A douchebags.

This old witch of a teacher got what was coming to her. Sounds like an absolute nightmare in the classroom, and after losing the class' papers and failing half of them, she got taken out by a swift and brutal revenge.
