So one of my teachers gave these little mini-tests called "quizzies". And they were notoriously hard. So one day this girl decides to confront him. Following conversation ensues:

Girl: "Mr. __________, your quizzies are way too hard!"
Teacher: "If you think my quizzies are hard, wait until you get a hold of my testies!"

We never got back to what we were talking about. XD

from my male APUSH teacher, talking about a woman (in a movie) wearing a very ugly dress: "Oprah would say that she is not maximizing her cuteness factor!!"

Latin teacher on many occasions: "In four of the five conjugations..." (there are only four conjugations in Latin)

English teacher in response to how long a certain essay should be: "Like a mini-skirt, long enough to cover the essentials, but short enough to keep it interesting".

Not to be racist, but my VERY conservative AP World teacher could talk like a black woman. And he's white! He would be like, "Guuurrrlll, oh no you didn't!" and say all these other slang phrases. It was funny, yet disturbing at the same time.

Oh my god... my Spanish teacher was the most incompetent fool ever.

"That movie was the most ironical movie ever."

One time I was laughing and smiling, and she asked in front of the whooooole class, "why are you smiling?" I said I was happy is all, and she just said, "people don't just smile because they're just happy." And she gave me a detention.

On a lighter note, my physics teacher claims he was a spy or something for the us military and that he'd love to tell us more, but we didn't have the security clearance to hear it. he told really great jokes. too bad he sucked at teaching.

I went to a private school where we had to wear uniforms. This is my french teacher speaking:
"Mr ______ if you don't tuck that shirt in right now, I'll stick my hand in there and tuck it in for you....don't laugh at me. I'm a married woman. I've seen and done things you can't even imagine."

@ Aeneas: Maybe she was counting 3rd-io as its own conjugation?

I was in France on our school trip and we were in Montmartre in front of Sacre Coeur and I was noting how couples were.... coupling in a very provocative way (something you wouldn't necessarily see in the States... at least not in front of a church) but jokingly. So:

Me: Ms. _____! People are basically fornicating here!
French Teacher: God, Lily! Stop being such a prude!

...Good times...
