"JOSH, DON'T MAKE ME CALL YOU OUT."
haha ironyyy

My physics teacher was teaching magnetism and how all objects experience some sort of magnetism/gravity/etc. And he wheeled his chair REALLY close to this one girl and said, "Do you feel the attraction?"
(teehee the child molestor-ness was unintentional....i hope.)

Kid: What's Existentialism?
English Teacher: It's like the American version of Transcendentalism.
The next day....
Kid #2: Wait...I still don't understand Existentialism.
English Teacher: It's like the European version of Transcendentalism.

(We needed Spanish speaking kids for a specific project with the ESL kids at elementary schools)

Teacher: That's too bad, because I know a lot of you speak Chinese or Indian.

Vietnamese Kid: Yeah that's too bad none of us here are Chinese.

Indian Kid: And that's too bad Indian isn't a language.

"A paragraph is like a skirt. It needs to be long enough to cover all the important details, but still be short enough to be interesting."

I heard something similar to this once.

"An essay is like a skirt, the shorter the sweeter, but it's gotta be long enough to cover the parts."

Or something like that.

A substitute for my English class wrote this on the board yesterday:

Finish worksheet and turn it in. Start reading the novel. Then maybe... maybe...

Student: Maybe what?
Teacher: Oh, I don't know, maybe we'll all go to the land of milk and honey and ponies will come! I like black ponies.
Student: Uh, don't black ponies come from hell?
Teacher: All ponies come from hell!

"Stop having social intercourse" - 9th grade english teacher.

"Do you a want a cookie" - Spanish 3 teacher with her heavy spanish accent.

"I forgot my cua-fee (coffee)"-Geometry teacher from New York.

"Forget your homework and you'll be hanged from the 20 ft fence on the soccer field" - 10th grade English teacher

"What did the seed say when it sprouted from the ground? Gee-om-a-tree (Geometry)!" - Substitute for Geometry. Funny because it was corny lol.

I know there are better ones, I just can't think of them right now.

Someone wrote on the board in my 10th grade spanish class:
"Yo tengo un gato en mi pantalones"

Love it. And my English teacher is funny. She calls a table with a bunch of bengali's "Little Bangladesh".

It means I have a cat in my pants But that was close.

Our spanish teacher was the funniest. We definitely learned the words "No Chicle"(No Gum) and "CERO!"(Zero, you got for the day).
