My personal favourite was our very unusual history teacher who divorced his wife, who he referred to in class as "The Beast", and ended up impregnating the hot english teacher. Someone corrected him on a smartarse comment he made and he retorted with
"GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!!"
"GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!!"
Pretty much anytime anyone uses the term "critical thinking". That phrase is just a pile of bullshit someone came up with because they wanted "thinking" to sound more intense.

About that, they didn't. I don't want to ridicule them, so I'll leave it at that.TheFacelessOne said:
In 5th grade, my teacher was asking the class what numbers were greater than a million. I said a million and a half.
The teacher said I was wrong because one half isn't a whole number.
I guess I should give her credit. They didn't want us learning about fractions until 6th grade.

No joke, last year, I heard someone asking a question about Obama. "Is he going to be the president of the U.S. or the world?" Later, when we were talking about the electoral colleges and how the larger states get more votes. When it was said that California had the most due to our size, she said: "Doesn't China have more people?". This is in 10th grade.
My high school required all freshmen to take a semester long computers class that was learning the very basics, like how to use a word processor, how to move files, typing, etc. It was the easiest class I've ever taken, but one ditzy girl brought this exchange about:
Teacher: ...So right click on the folder and-
Ditzy girl: Is that the one your pointer finger is on?

Carjacking? blow up the car!
Miss a homework assignment? Blow up the school!
Girls ditch you? Blow up the sorority!
See, no more problems. the cars gone so it cant be stolen, the schools gone so you cant get a bad grade, and the girls are gone so they cant ditch you.
Problem solved.
In serious though, this was in walmart, and some girls assumed I was from sweden cuz i had swedish fish in my hand.
Later, my friend, who was just an exchange student over there in Sverige, is found by these girls who ask him if hes from sweden, [he says yes] and if he plays soccer.
"football?" -'is that what you call it?' -"no we call it soccer" Then they told him how awesome their day of going to the pancake house and hanging out at walmart is.
Ah... kentucky...

Not the stupidest thing I've heard, but stupidest thing that happened. In 5th grade, the teacher said at the end of sex ed "I hope you have a happy, healthy sex life." He was fired at the end of the year. Rot in hell, administrators. Rot in hell.
I like the time in Honors Chemistry where my teacher was going over how atoms become excited and when they return to their normal state they release photons, which have a wavelength (Because they're waves duh). Then we proceed to go over what a wave looks like, with the amplitude, trough, etc.
This one kid that almost killed me several times in drivers ed asks how a tsunami works.
....HOW DO THESE THINGS EVEN REMOTELY CONNECT?

Our teacher asked "how many states were in the United States?" as a sort of joke, but she went person by person and there were ACTUALLY people answering "48" and "51" it's unbelievable how you can get this wrong.
Edit: This was in highscool, 11-12th grade, so it wasnt' just a low blow to kids learning to count.

Waves, I suppose. Different kinds, but I can see how a stupid person would make the connection.firedfns13 said:
