teacher

Unfortunately, a fair number of us have encountered a rather nasty teacher while muddling through the education system at one point or another. Some teachers are certainly worse than others. It's like some of them will have some strange vendetta against you from the moment you walked in, for some unfathomable reason. Well, the teacher in this scenario sounds like she was way outside the line. Fortunately, the student's mom was ready to unleash a righteous revenge. 

It happened all the time. Some kid would start collecting walnuts that fell on school property, or a teacher would ban rubber bands, and all of a sudden there was a new schoolyard black market. It was a confusing, weird and stupid lesson in basic economics. For those aching for simpler times, here are the school memes for the mostly educated.

This teacher's wholesome moment with a rather moody student ended up coming full circle in the best way. The universe speaks in mysterious ways. It sounds like the teacher left a profoundly positive impact on the student who was going through a tough time. You never know how far an act of kindness can carry someone down the wild road of life. 

We love a good old-fashioned wholesome petty revenge. Anyone who has a proclivity for reading books will likely get a kick out of this sweet tale. It's awesome that the teacher didn't meet that master plan with frustration, but instead just broke out in some appreciative laughter. For a more intense revenge tale, check out this pro revenge story about a testy HOA member who got someone's car towed, and then had the favor repeatedly returned. 

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.

It's not every day that you get to use your boss's rules against them. There's something so wonderfully satisfying about when an unfair employer has to face their own music. Not every organization gets to feel the sting of their own unfairness. This job applicant got to call out a company's dumb interview process.

This teacher's viral story about teaching deaf kids how farts work is a hilariously wholesome little tale. Taking a moment and picturing the look of shock and the confusion thereafter on these kids faces as they learn about the wild world of farts is just golden. 

While it is a teacher's responsibility to know things, they're still human and are capable of getting those things wrong. It's when a teacher says something wrong and doesn't own up to it when things get weird. What's the value in lying to kids just so that you can maintain a false sense of authority? Sometimes teachers don't give their students enough credit, like this tumblr thread about a teacher underestimating their students for a social experiment. With the veritable weirdness some educators display, luckily there are also teachers who pulled total bro moves.

George Pointon took to twitter to matter-of-factly address the comedic skills of his young class. He ascertained that some overly relied on dirty stuff, some couldn't read the room and others had great timing. Kids don't make the greatest comics, but they also don't make great much anything else, as evidenced by this proof that kids are weird and dumb.

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.

It doesn't seem like letting a student have an incredibly necessary tablet would be such a big deal, but ol' professor decided to get real cocky about it. On the opposite side of things, some educators are actually pretty cool, like these teachers who pulled total bro moves.

Our academic lives were needlessly fraught with tyrannical, despotic excuses for educators who taught us more about fear than we ever learned about math. That's why it's important to remember that some of them are thoughtful people who care about what they do, like this teacher with a great dihydrogen monoxide lesson or this teacher who fought the power using gummy bears.

The ol' dihydrogen monoxide gag has been a mainstay of internet culture and beyond for years. The only thing better than that first aha moment of getting it the first time is duping other people with it. This person takes it a step further with their 7th grade class. For some serious teacher cleverness, here's a teacher who used gummy bears to fight the power.

Man, nothing quite sinks the spirits like when you realize you have a nasty neighbor next door. We're all just trying to coexist reasonably peacefully, but some neighbors make that seem like an unattainable reality. Take this neighbor for instance. Grandpa tried to have a simple chat with the dude, and the dude proceeded to be nasty, and shove Grandpa's considerate kindness right back in his face. Well, Grandpa pulled off quite the successful long con from there.
