First day of high school. Home room teacher, Mr. Washington (his fro looked like Artis Gilmore's).

He is reading the student handbook to us line for line (boring). He starts discussing getting suspended and gives us an example of a suspendable offense. Calling the school up and telling them "there is a bum in the school".

I looked around and saw confusion on many faces. It took us a while to figure out that what he was telling us is not to call in a bomb threat.

I don't know who hired that guy but he didn't last a week.

My teachers were pretty solid. I did have a Spanish teacher that said, "Jew want to be a clown, Jew go on da street and Jew be a clown".

FDR was a good president and pulled us out of the depression when in fact he prolonged it by a decade.

I once had a teacher tell us that there were two acceptable spellings for congratulations, one of which being congradulations...but it was only acceptable for graduation ceremonies.

Over time I thought I just dreamed it up, but eventually confirmed with an ex classmate.

The worst part is, I was a grown man before I figured out she was incorrect. Thank God it isn't a word you write out many times.

Our assistant principal would have a damn near daily announcement that a green pownthiac was parked illegally by the band room.

I once had a teacher get mad at me and three of my friends for making fun of this band nerd, and never paying attention in her class. She kept us after class one day and yelled at us, "you think you're smart, but you're not as smart as you think you are!"

The joke's on her, one of us has a doctorate, two of us have masters, and the last is a chemical engineer. I think she was just mad that we were as smart as we thought we were and didn't need to pay attention to her shitty lecture.

You don't use algebra? I think it's pretty useful, but most people probably need need anything more advanced than that.

8th grade PE had a mandatory "health" session.

Teacher told us that VD originated with shepherds having sex with animals.

It did give us this unforgettable oral pop quiz moment:

Teacher: "Donald, how did VD get started?"

Donald:(huge, shy kid who could dunk in 8th grade) Puts hand over mouth and laughs quietly.

Teacher: "Don't be shy. It's just us men in here."

Donald: "Them men. (pause) They be fricking them sheep."

The whole fricking class lost it, and the teacher ran out of the room in hysterics.

Donald is now a registered sex offender. Seriously.
