    My friend rang me just after we finished school and said "Mrs Murphy's dead" and I replied... "oh my god is she alright?"

    We were little brats in school... we had like sticky putty stuff & kept throwing it on the roof in class & laughing when it eventually came down..
    Then one time it didn't come down & our teacher walked over & looked & said
    "oh my god somebody put tomato soup on the roof (it was illuminous orange)!

    Then one time in geography our teacher asked what its called when a river is erroded (its deposition)!
    And one of the girls put up her hand & shouted "DISCHARGE"

    We also tormented our computer teacher by sending her love letters through the printer in the computer room & she could never tell where they were coming from.. things like "I love you miss" and "looking sexy today miss"!

    I once had an argument with two people in school, who were trying to claim that the Simpsons, as a cartoon, came out in our parent's generation(1970s).
    To all onlookers, I came off looking the stupid one, claiming that it was only 10 years old.

    Most teachers are like most other people, except they are constrained by the curiculum and by the ethos of the school in which they teach. They aren't supposed to give too personal an opinion or follow personal agenda's.

    For example, an atheist teaching in a Catholic school would be very brave to mention his/her lack of belief. It would be equally unpopular, I would imagine, to promote Evolution as opposed to Creationism in a Muslim school.

    My first year religion teacher was an atheist

    and I was in a catholic school

    While in the cantien que one day I overheard two first years having a conversation. This was about a year ago. One of them commented that the price of wedges had gone up by €0.40 or something. The other replied ''Yeahh! Sure haven't you heard there's a renaissance going on!''...I presume she meant to say ''Recession''.

    I asked a lad in my class if the new computers in the school had Windows, he replied "yeah, they're flatscreens" in a pure serious voice! I laughed in his face for 5 minutes and he didn't cop on!

    I heard that arnold swachsnegger was pregnant (he was in some film or something)
    My class were always the class that were left out when it came to trips. We ended up getting 2 trips in the end.

    The first one, a priest teaching in the school hijacked, to bring us to Knock...

    The second was to bring us to the cinema. Straight there and straight back, not aloud to get popcorn or anything, just herded in and out.

    What was the film? JUNIOR. :mad:

    A teacher I had in second class, who has since been warmed by the fires of hell, used to come out with some ridiculous things. He was more cruel than stupid, but when I maintained that something he said was incorrect he lost the block. Made us repeat the thing that I disputed for half the lunch-break.

    I have evidence to prove I was right (in the attic somewhere) in a copybook I had to write down what he said a million times (may not be exact). It was something to do with weight of solid objects as opposed to liquids... (Sorry for bringing it up with being able to explain what was so stupid about it!)

    I wasn't a smart-arse in his class ever. You just didn't, but what he was saying was so ridiculous I had to make my reservations known. Hated me after that, not that you could tell the difference between his attitude towards me and anyone else.

    He was passed around between schools over the years as far as I know. Seems that he had knowledge of a skeleton in the school head's cupboard, so he was always backed-up in arguments with parents. When I was in his class, a group of our parents tried to have him removed, but failed due to him and the principal driving around to everyone's house and "diffusing" the situation. He copped on for a few weeks, but was back to old tricks again pretty soon.

    When my brother came along 4 years later, the teacher had the misfortune of crossing the path of a much better organised group of parents. Was out the next day and never taught again.

    Another stupid thing he told me (as Gaeilge) was that "You'll never amount to anything" and "You'll never amount to anything if you can't solo the ball properly..."

    Not being able to solo the ball properly doesn't stop half the local GAA team, ironically enough.

    It was into the new millennium until I realised Tupac was actually dead.

    I was in 6th class when it happened and me being smarter than all the fools in my class, I knew it wasn't true...

    "If your hand fits over your face, you have cancer."
    In my school they said that, then when you put your hand up to your face they'd push it, smashing your hand into your face.

    So clearly someone in your school missed out on the punchline and it spread.
