Dumbest Things Heard In School

[Tartarga]

In history class we were watching Band of Brothers and everybody kept asking what the "movie" was about and all the smart people said "Its not a movie its a mini series."
Another time in English class the teacher just finishes telling us about Shakespear and someone says "Whos Shakespear?" Freaking idiots.

"Because God would never hurt anyone good"

Day-umn. For the supposed saviour of the human race Jesus must have been one bad guy to get crucified.
Is flipping tables really that bad in God's eyes?

Religion: Contradiction is fun.

Well the trick with Jesus is people tell you he wasn't a person but instead the holy ghost in the form of a human. It gets really convoluted and makes even less sense than the literal story but people like to say it.

Teacher: I knew this guy who had brain death and the family authorized his organs to be removed
Nicole: So is he dead?

Biggest facepalm of my life

Question: How would you solve in illegal immigration problem?


Kid in class: Bomb Mexico.

Nothing against Americans here (I myself being one) but it seems like the majority of schoolkids here use "Bomb the holy shit out of them!" as the #1 answer to all of the issues facing the world.

Just an observation.

Yeah, being an American as well, I agree, but I doubt it's much different anywhere else.

Plus, they're kids. They'll likely grow out of that.

Prof: ...plagiarism is bad...don't plagiarize....
Student: Can we paraphrase? If so, how do we site it?
Prof: If you wish report an extended quote by separating it out of the main body of a paragraph and indenting both sides, that would be helpful when reading you papers. You would site it normally.

I dropped the class that day.

By the way, the above is an example of paraphrasing.

Feel free to plagiarize a dictionary .

Argh! I could say that I was further expressing the idiocy of the professor, but that would be a lie. Typos make fools of us all.

Well, duh! Forgive and forget, man!

It seems to be working so far!

The question is, are they trying to be ironic/funny? If so, then it's excusable; if not, then we have a serious problem.

It's vaguely like the Internet's use of the word "awesome". I see it as having taken on an ironic meaning.

I have edited my post accordingly. I accidently excluded the last bit ;D

Hmmmm.... He's got a good point there.

I didn't actually hear this in person but, my sisters 8th grade teacher told them that the Soviets were the first to walk on the moon.

"After you leave, you'll miss how easy school was."

I knew it was stupid then, the years just confirmed it.

Normally I don't bring it up. I just thought that in a thread like this that particular mistake was pretty funny.

Plus I got to be a bit of an ass with my use of plagiarize. Fun times indeed.

I only miss the lack of college loans. Otherwise life outside the big house is pretty good.

Well, you have to admit, that WOULD work... if we got everyone... have to make sure to leave no survivors so we wouldn't have refugees.
Remember kiddies, you can solve ANY international problem with big enough guns/bombs.

Day before year 10 english test.

Kid- "Miss, whats a plot"

Teacher- "What?"

Kid- "Because in my book I wrote down "plot" and I wanted to know what it is"

That would be a radical interpretation of the text. Theologically, Jesus is not the same person as the Holy Spirit; He is a distinct Person within the Trinity. Furthermore, He did not take on the form of a human; He became human.

I've never been witness to any stupidity of a mentionable nature at my school, but:

"What's so bad about communism?"

*Epic face palm*

The first two are beyond retarded; would you care to explain this one?

 

[soren7550]

This happened last year in my American History class while we were watching the Normandy beach landing in Saving Private Ryan:

"Who's he?"
*Tom Hanks is shown* "Is that Ryan?" (also asked whenever any other guy showed up on screen)
"Why is that old guy sad?"
*at the cemetery* "Is this Normandy?"
"Why are they in boats?"
"Why doesn't the dead guy tell Tom Hanks that he's dead and doesn't need to be carried anymore?"
"Won't they be eaten by sharks?"

You get the idea. (all of these were asked by a class full of 11th graders.)
