I think you just won the thread.

I blame Seasame Street (and just the general American influence in the media) for that. I had to break out of the "zee" habit myself in primary school.
I used to watch Sesame Street, but whenever I said Zee to my parents they yelled at me xD

That kind of broke the habit.

My current IPT teacher is insane. The lesson after we handed in our major project I spent the whole time playing "Nyanyanyanyanyan" at full blast on 3 computers.
He didn't care.
In fact, he went on to play some of the windows sample music at full blast while playing a random geography game. That got awkward when his supervisor walked in =D.
Also, we asked him what our test would be based on and he sai "the test will be based on paper."
I have to put up with him every lesson. I don't think he is qualified. He is insane.

Had a teacher that caused £16k worth of damage to a language lab, who then proceeded to try and blame it on a student. That was fun.
Sixteen thousand POUNDS?!?!?! To a... let me get this straight... a language lab?

I really want to hear that story, because it sounds like he set off an IED in there.
Well, she broke it. Thinking about it, it can't have been £16k worth of damage. But, that is the value we were told it was worth (by senior staff, because of what happened) and so the figure stuck in my mind.

Anyway, to what happened.

One of the student stations had a problem and so had been removed. A lad still had to sit in the seat infront of it however, plugged into his neighbours station.

There were one or two wires poking out of where the station had been and he was fiddling with them during the lesson. The teacher saw this, told him to stop and asked him what they were.

Now comes the fun part.

She decided to confiscate them. The wires. Confiscate the wires.

No word of a lie, she reached in and yanked on them. Then again. Then, with her body weight and newly exposed wire to give her a good grip, pulled them again.

Strangely, the rest of the lab then ceased to function. For the rest of that school year. And yeah, she tried to blame the lad who'd been fiddling with them.

Ahhh, Spanish lessons were amazing.
I laughed so hard. I think you beat me.

I once had a maths teacher who would start every lesson with a 15-minute rant... about how we were wasting time.

I had another maths teacher who was the joke of the school because he had no authority at all. Every year he got given a class of the worst students in the school and none of them listened to him. I actually felt sorry for him.

They were both cool guys, they just weren't very good teachers.

I had a nutrition teacher who would talk about her healthy diet and its merits. The problem that kept me from taking her seriously was that she looked sickly and weak even though she didn't have any disease or condition.

An elementary school religion teacher (so no I didn't take him seriously to begin with) once lost his temper really badly.
Teacher: *pointing* "Right, that's it! Out with you, you've disrupted class long enough. Door's that way."
Rest of the class: "Ummm...teach...you're pointing at the window. Door's the other way."

My high school arts teacher had this hilarious habit of presenting some students half finished work to the rest of the class and giving her interpretation of it like it was the penultimate truth. You know, without even consulting the person making the piece. I thought she was as annoying as they come until she got sick and we met her sub. Now she seemed to think her job was to give us helpful suggestions on what to put in a picture. Here's some outtakes:
"Spruce up that scene of the Death Valley with flowers" or
"Doing a picture entirely in shades of blue and black? Throw in some bright orange for contrast!" reply to which "...it's a picture taking place at night. Underwater."
She didn't have much confidence though, so we'd always brush her off with a polite version of "piss off". She'd just say "Oh, okay" and go harass someone else.

I know I'm going to get jumped on for this, but...

Somebody who openly states that they like MLP. Here, it's fine, since none of you seem like the annoying types I hate, and can hold their own in an argument and prove to be intelligent and thoughtful.

On the otherhand, other forums... It's painful and I can never take them seriously.

Classmate of mine once said this, in all seriousness:

"Wait... if there is gravity... then how do the planets stay up in the sky?"

Cue insane laughter from the rest of the class.

I was watching Inglorious Bastards and some kid thought a game was based of it due to Swastika,s.
He didn't believe me Swastika,s were also used by the Nazi party around WWII

I was in Foods class and made a Red Cake with a Yellow Hammer and Sickle on it. The teacher pulled me aside and asked me if it was a "Nazi symbol". At that moment I knew she could no longer teach me.
*In Russian accent* No. Cake was cooking YOU.
