    The stupidest thing I ever heard was these two guys were playing with matches on break, and ya know the way schools have fire extuingsher's around it, one of them seriously asked how big the flame would go if they sprayed one onto the match

    My Physics teacher politely asking my (mostly) retarded class to stop messing and pay attention.

    Poor, naive woman. Only lasted a year in the job.

    Kid in my year who was a bit thick, and misspelt his name when signing a painting from art (Spelt McEvoy McOvey) - when slagged he ran out of the room shouting "ITS HARDER TO SPELL IN PAINTS!!"

    He was also the kid who asked myself and a mate what an erection was. He understood what a boner was, but couldnt link the fact that they were the same thing.

    "I don't care how soon the Leaving Cert is. Religion is just as important a subject as Accounting. Now put away those books and pay attention."

    That's the dumbest thing I can remember at the moment.

    A girl in my marine biology class when looking at a map of the world: Oh my God! All the oceans of the world are connected!

    Same girl, same class. We were taking a true or false test and numer 19 was a freeie - it said, "The answer to this question is false."
    Girl: I don't understand number 19
    Teacher (incredulous): Um... why?
    Girl: I don't know if it's true or false.
    Teacher: What does the question say?
    Girl: Well, it says the answer is false, but if it's true that it's false, shouldn't we put true?

    Still not sure if that was stupid or Shakespearian.

    With a question like that I think I'd probably put true too.

    My sixth class teacher (who fancied herself as a scientist that just never got the breaks) telling the class that organs couldn't be transplanted between different races. I told her that she was wrong and she went off on one and kicked me out of the class, good teacher.

    usually anything involving religion.....one Fr. Kennedy in a south dublin school found Father Ted offensive and wouldnt let us watch it on trips away....yet he could very easily have been related to Fr. Dougal.....he used 2 ring his mother on the mobile and then pretend he didnt want to be talking to her, throwing his eyes up to heaven....sorry cudnt resist.....actually i wud'v said thats rather disrespectful on his part....the other priest in the school was far older and used to tell us to talk to god at least 20times a day and tell him we love him.....he was an arsehole....

    the principal of a previous school used to invite the guards in every halloween to talk to us about the dangers of fireworks....then once he decided to tell us his own story about how some student at a previous school where he worked threw a banger and frightened someone so much he jumped in front of a bus and was killed instantly.....took him about 20mins to stop the laughter....even the guard was in stitches!! :pac:

    a guy in my history class once asked if america had ever had a black president.....still one of the most stupid questions i've ever heard......

    another guy asked a guest speaker who was supposedly friends with Bruce Lee before he died if they were still friends.....i seem to remember there being a stunned silence at the retardation of the question from all.....

    Thats because he's still alive ... what he did was he faked his own death so that he could work undercover for the Hong Kong police infiltrating drugs gangs and The Triads

    "We think it's very important for Max to continue with Irish, as he is very weak at the subject and not start a foreign language."

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    A guy was asked by the teacher to name the organ that pumped blood around the body. His answer: The Brain. We laughed:D

    We convinced some guy that men had periods, and we all had them (boys school!). He went to the toilet and came back to us saying he just had his period - out of his hand!
