Lesson Of The Day: Even Teachers Can Be Stupid

Location: Math Class

Math teacher: okay, class. I'm handing out these sheets with problems. What I want you to do is not to solve them, but to only find the system of equations, then solve for Y.

*Spike lifts head off desk and raises hand*

M.T: Yes?

Spike: Ummmm, I'm not sure if you realised this, but you technically can't solve equations like these without solving for Y.

M.T: I beg your pardon?

Spike: Yeaaaah, you're telling us to solve for Y, without solving the whole equation. Last time I checked, solving for Y= solving the equation. What you just told us to do makes as much sense as telling someone to shoot someone in the head without killing them.

M.T: Young man, are you trying to be smart with me?

Spike: Well, sir, with all do respect, someone has to be .

*Teacher thoroughly looks at assigned sheets, frowns, then lowers his head in embarassment*

And that's also the story of how I was kept in at lunch time.

 

BRILLIANT! I love it when that happens! Like my Trig teacher last year, second semester: She'd do most of a problem, stop halfway through, and erase most of it, saying that she did it wrong. X_X

 

:D At moments like that I feel like my own version of Robin Hood: Steal dignity from the rich, give comedy to the poor.

 

I've pointed out mistakes teachers have made before, it's fun x]

Lol, we asked our maths teacher for help with a hard question that no-one could get (I had several sides of formula trying to work it out x.x). She then spent the hour lesson working it out and got it at the end. She said if anyone could get it by Monday (this happened on a Friday) she would give them a chocolate muffin ^^

I got so close T_T

 

I love correcting the teachers it is just so much fun :D

 

lol correcting teachers = fun!

basically the same thing happened in archery,

teacher: you're right handed you have to aim with your right eye, not your left
me:technically, thats not true, my left eye is my good eye.
Teacher: no
me: yes

in the end, the teacher gave up XD
