People Are Sharing Funny, Weird, And Embarrassing Stories About Their Teachers For Jimmy Fallon’s Challenge (40 Pics)
Oh, those carefree school days... The cringe was so real that well into our adulthood, we still relive it while we sleep. Although most of the embarrassing stuff that only a thought of it turns us bright red still to this day happened to us and our friends, teachers were not immune to making fun of themselves in front of the whole class.
So when Jimmy Fallon announced his new #MyTeacherIsFunny challenge and asked everyone to tweet the funniest, weirdest and most embarrassing things their teacher has done or said, the answers started pouring in one by one, each better than the previous one.
From a 9th grade teacher who would tell kids to close the blinds every Monday only for them to realize he was hungover, to a teacher who kept a jar of chewed gum on his desk, here are some of the most entertaining stories featuring teacher quirks and school antics. Don’t say you don’t miss it a tiny bit. Just kiddin’.

NBC’s award-winning show Saturday Night Live first premiered on October 11, 1975. Jimmy Fallon was commissioned as a cast member in 1988, and in 2014, he became the sixth permanent host of the long-running The Tonight Show. His weekly hashtag challenges and active social media presence have won him a solid fan-base.
I had the same math teacher as my mom. His son was in my class too so when mom told me he slept with an underaged student his first year, got her knocked up and then married her to make it kosher ( it was the 1970s) I could never look at either one of them the same again
Fallon's most popular challenge was his #TumbleweedChallenge, which generated over 8K submissions and 10.4 million engagements on TikTok. This was the biggest spike recorded by TikTok since the app launched in 2016. Currently, Fallon has a whopping 51.3M following on Twitter, making his account the 19th most popular one on the entire site.
Donald Trump has also helped Jimmy’s Twitter account to get attention. Back in June, Trump attacked Fallon for apologizing for having the then-presidential candidate on his chat show and playfully ruffling his hair. Trump told Fallon to “be a man.”
Oh, and if you're wondering, Barack Obama is the most followed person on Twitter with 110.2M followers. With the presidency now behind him, Obama mostly tweets about work being done by his Obama Foundation and other activities.
My teacher was so sweet. Seriously, I don't even know what he taught anymore, but it was boring. Some sort of math or science. I was painting flowers on my paper. He walked over and said: Do you think flowers are more interesting than my teaching? No sir. Oh you can say yes. My wife likes flowers more too.
I hope my German teacher does this. She actually might. She apparently will cuss out students if they annoy her lol
My college kids still raise their hands and ask to go to the toilet. I keep reminding them they are adults and this is not a prison. Usually get them trained in the first couple of weeks just to quietly leave and come back
Jobs have appeared and disappeared as long they exist. It's pretty hard to find a job as clock keeper, lamplighter or switch operator in these times.
Our Earth Science teacher ( Mr. Bean, who straight looked like a leprechaun) told us he graded while drunk, which I believe and I know another teacher always had "orange juice" in class. I was his grading assistant in the free period and my friend came in to hang and we tested the "orange juice". It was def a screwdriver. Though after 10 years in the classroom I can sort sympathize.
ALWAYS read an entire test first. That way you can pick the easy answers first and take care of the harder questions later. May save you a lot of points by not wasting too much time on a hard question.

In all the classes my professor Dr. Svendsen taught, he emphasized that you should never attempt to solve a problem until you understand the larger scope so you will focus on the problems that really matter. For my mammalogy final (senior spring semester), he passed out an 11 page final with one question at the top of each page with each question marked as 9 points for a 99 point test.. The questions were ridiculous like "Explain the various ecological niches for each of the 19 classes" and "Explain the embryonic growth of a placental mammal from egg to birth". Entire books could be written about each question. The last question on page 11 was worth 100 points. "What was/is the name of your favorite mammalian pet?' Answer that one and you got 100/99. His final life lesson as we were graduating was his mantra for the last 4 years. Years later I remember the others questions on that test only because they are part of the bigger lesson I really learned that day.
Had this "test" a couple of times in grade school, but 10 pages? That's just sick.
Seriously the point of these is to teach people to read the directions thoroughly. It's one thing to put the instruction at the end of the first paragraph, but at the end of 10 pages? No one has time to read that many questions and then answer them, of course they'd jump right in.

I just remember this except it had that line appearing FIRST. It was designed to show how many people actually took the time to read directions. Most of the students were studiously writing down the answers while a few sat quietly twiddling their thumbs.
I did this once in 5th grade, but I was one of the few to follow the instructions properly because I was informed about this test from a family friend.
i passed a test just like this, only it was "answer question number 3, 9, and 14".....the other kids HATED ME
All I know, is if I was someone in that class and went through all 10 pages just to read that last line, I would’ve lost it, seriously! Just thinking about it, I have test anxiety. I have a social anxiety. I have anxiety! That would’ve ruined my week and I would’ve been so angry at the teacher. If the teacher had said read the entire test first and then go back and answer the questions, that would’ve been different. But uh uh. If you don’t have functioning issues or learning disabilities, you could never imagine what a clusterfuck this could be.
I used to do that, but it was just one page of 20 silly tasks, like 'cross your eyes, clap your hands,' etc. The last item would say, go back to the top of the page and write what you see in this blank, which were the instructions: read the following.
A version of this is used with great effect in The Mysterious Benedict Society - a test with impossibly difficult questions that are answered by other questions.
A teacher that I had in middle school did this to us. Right at the top it said "Read the entire test before answering any questions." As expected, the last line said to just sign your name at the top, then stop. Very few students followed instructions...I was one that didn't. Lesson learned.
I actually really hate these tests. The idea is to get students to learn to read the whole test. But what really happens is everyone starts reading the test, freaks out, the kids with anxiety have panic attacks, and everyone learns that they can't trust the teacher to give them a fair test so they second-guess themselves on everything they do after that. I got one of these in third grade and the only kid who passed had heard about a similar test from their dad. They weren't any smarter or better at following instructions, they just had heard the cheat code.
I personally think large amounts of homework are worthless "busy" exercises. Students don't do it, I get frustrated, they are frustrated, it's all bad. I give very little homework and it is then done without a fuss and on the rare occasion they don't do it, my disappointed face has a lot more impact.
Wonder if it was with pressurized water or if it was a chemical reaction like mentos and diet cola?
This is why you preview films before showing them. Though the only Spanish movie my high school owned was Babe the Pig. In college our teacher was Spanish and showed movies with violence and sex without blinking an eye
The teacher was covering his back. A text message like that could make him a sex offender in the blink of an eye.
Entirely the teacher‘s fault. Trying to convince students of something and then be surprised when they believe it. (And before anyone says this was too ridiculous to believe, I‘m sure everybody experienced situations where they learned something that seemed utterly unbelievable and yet was still true.)
Why would a civics class be learning about date fruits? Though maybe this explains a lot about the current levels of political literacy.
Used to go from room to room in junior high, with every classes tv on and tuned to the World Series. No work was done during the World Series!
My 6th grade math teacher had a life sized cardboard cutout of himself that sat in the corner of the room. He also hung up pictures of his face all over the walls. When asked why, he said "I'm always watching." Then left the room ominously. Once in the middle of a test, it was dead silent, all of a sudden he screamed to scare everyone (it worked). then once he spend a whole period teaching us to harmonize with the backstreet boys. and once during a test he yelled "STAMPEDE DRILL" played the sound of a group of animals stampeding at full volume, and made us all get under our desks. And at the beginning of the year, he put a bowl of clam chowder outside by his classroom door. We planned to see how disgusting it got by the end of the year, but it ended up smelling so bad that the janitor had to throw it away even when he asked them not to. He was my all time favorite teacher and everyone who gets put in his class is blessed.
Last day of school grade 11, these two guys had been harassing me all year. Leaving nasty notes on my locker, dirty pictures at desks where I sat. Back then we didn't call it bullying, We had our name for it(which I won't state). One of these guys was the vice principals son and his friend. I am a female sports minded person. I was cleaning out my locker when the VP son knocked me into the locker. They were laughing I got up picked the VP's son up by the collar and Smashed him into the locker and closed the door, forgetting my locker was in front of the teachers lounge, Mr. Peacock was standing there. I said I'd get my butt to the office .He said what for we have been wanting to get that arrogant little brat all year but being who he was, they were afraid. With that a round of applause went up from the lounge. Thank you Mr. Peacock!
I remember one day in 9th grade there was a boy walking behind me who kept kicking me and I'd finally had enough so I turned around and punched him. Then I looked to see the teacher on hall duty just laughing his ass off.

My history teacher would show up in costumes for the discussion of the day. For the Civil War he came in his Union outfit with sword, riding his white horse up the path behind our classroom. "Charge!" he yelled and zoomed back the other way. Later he "accidently" got his boot stuck in the trash can. He was great. Encouraged us all.
Ethics teacher in my last year of high school was the best for numerous reasons: 1. Doing random things when we enter the class like: yoga on his desk, scribbling like a mad scientist on his board, playing a game of snake and ladder with a big fluffy dice by himself or reading a book upside-down (HE was upside down on his chair). 2. I had my class with him as the first class of the day and the school forced the teacher to do a "reflective minute" where we are supposed to thank God for something, since he new a bunch of students were not Christians or don't believe in religions in general, he played 2 minutes of a parody of American soap opera called Le Coeur a ses raisons (if you understand French, YOU have to see this). 3. Headbanging like crazy when a student band started playing a song by Queen at the end of year show + dancing with a teacher (another cool one) when another band played the song Footloose.
I had a fall literature class taught by Dr. Kirk at UNT. He was as old as dirt, but retained his youthful spirit. I always remember he told us that back in his day they called marijuana "tea", but that's a side note. Anyway, I stayed up all night studying for his and a couple other finals. I crashed. His was first, and I missed it. After some grieving that night, I went to his office on his available time the following morning. He and several secretaries (or whatever they were) were in the middle of a Christmas party with cookies and punch. He appreciated my desperation and sat me at a side desk in the common office area, handing me the exam. As I took the test, the secretaries kept me loaded with punch and cookies. I got a low A on the test.
My first day in junior high (middle school) we had gym class orientation. When the coach was telling us about the equipment we needed, he mentioned protection cups. I asked where I could get one. He just looked at me like I was the most pathetic thing he's ever seen.
we math and science educators are far more twisted and fun than we appear. 😁
Load More Replies... My 9th grade biology teacher argued that twins have the identical finger prints. She tried to prove this in murder mystery challenge, which is how our argument started. Her scientific method behind proving this ideology technically made sense but her lack of including different womb positions cost her any credibility.. It took a very heated 45 minute argument for her to finally admit she was wrong. This took place in one of the top ten public high schools in the USA (at the time). It was shameful. I switched schools shortly after....
When I was in Catholic high school, MANY years ago, the Church and Chong album called "Parochial School" came out. Hilarious and some of it true. The nuns at my school were very cool people. One day we decided to play a joke on our history teacher who was a nun. We had just come back from a retreat and told her we had met a Sister she had known in the Noviciate. She asked what her name was and we told her it was Sister Rosetta Stone. She kept questioning us about this Sister Rosetta Stone until it dawned on her and had quite a laugh. She asked us where we came up with it and we told her about the album and it was a character on it. She asked one of the girls who had it to bring it to next class. Sister Mary T shows up with a record player, closed the door to the classroom and we listened to the whole thing for class. Like I said, cool nuns.
My older sister took French and German at high school. She told me the German teacher made kids who yawned when she was talking put their heads out the window (one storey building) as they 'clearly needed fresh air'. I thought she was joking, but took only French as a second language anyway. I saw kids in the room next to us occasionally stick their head out the window. I don't think she was kidding. My sisters best story of her: She also had a doctorate, and (understandably) got frustrated at always being called Mrs. One day she snapped and growled "I didn't spend x years at University to be called Mrs!" This was unfortunately timed with Austin Powers being a movie that had come out within the last couple of years. I don't think she knew why the class cracked up so hard, but detentions ensued 😂
Senior year Sociology teacher, sitting on a stool, on top of his desk with a broomstick making machine gun noises, pretending to be a bomber pilot.... Yep, Pearl Harbor= pop quiz. RIP Mr. Dunn.
There was a teacher at my high school that played the bagpipes. Every Tuesday he had an evening practise in town and since he lived out of town he would stay at the school and practise in his classroom, instead of driving home, and having to turn around and come right back. Our school was over 100 years old at that point, 4 floors and in a cube shape that had a hollow column in the middle (so even interior classrooms could have windows for fresh air). So no matter where you were in that school you could hear his bagpipes! It was always after regular school hours, but if you were unlucky enough to have to do a makeup test/assignment or had sports you had to hear his bagpipes
One of my math teachers spent the last week of the school year teaching us card tricks.
My chemistry teacher in high school was awesome. My class and him played pranks on each other, and we had to call him Grandmaster and he called us the Titration Team. We even threw him a surprise birthday party, and also a dinner party after we graduated. In one of my stories I have a teacher character inspired by him, and beta readers always complain that it's inappropriate and unrealistic and that teachers and students can't be friends. Sad to think that it's so unusual.
had prof in college who gave out take home mid term/final exams. when dean questioned this his response was "you haven't seen my exams'. there would be 5 questions requiring essay answers. but fun part was students would barter: do 1 & 3 w/option of one other, etc. eventually he would let us decide on the 2 required and mandate the third. had a week to do but 'fluff' was not accepted. average answers were minimum of 10 pages.
My food tech teacher was amazing. She would constantly fangirl over Chris Hemsworth and she had cool nicknames for everyone. We all called her Queen [name] of Hemsworth. Oh and, we'd listen to the Hokey Pokey and the Clean up Song at the end of lesson. Also on the last day of term we ate Doritoes and watched Masterchef. Good times.
My freshman college Lit 101 teacher was named Carl. Sorry, but I forget his last name. One early morning mid-semester, one of the students was sleeping in the front row. Carl let it pass. Then the student (pudgy pasty male in a trench-coat) sat up with a throaty snort and then projectile vomited about 4 or five feet forward. One Mississippi pause and Carl calmly asked "Do you need to go to the bathroom?"
Recall! Carl Cunfiff...or it might have been Kundiff.

I had a physics teacher who was just awesome. He'd bring in the album cover from Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon to demonstrate light refracting through a prism. He wore mismatched neon coloured socks (this was in the 1980's) and short trousers. He'd bring his guitar in and play it for us. He would let us eat in class and when we had a non uniform day I wore my sister's denim jacket that she'd embroidered with the Canadian band Rush's logo on, he pointed me out and said 'Great taste in music!' (I didn't correct him, just basked in the glory of my sister's music choices)
My english teacher on 3rd grade, Mr Nick O'Sullivan, saw my sister on the school gates wairing for me. My sis and looked very alike when we were 10ish, so he asked her "are you Sergio Bicerra's sister?" she said yes, he tapped on her head, said "poor girl" and went his way.
Chemistry teacher (tiny Irish lady) at uni told us somebody once said to her “homeopathy isn’t dangerous!” And then almost crying with laughter she screams “You can drown!!!!”
Question for you Americans here,why do guys find this guy funny?He is laughing at every sentence his guest speaks.That fake laugh is so bad i can't watch him even for 5 min. The dialogs seem to be studied to perfection...He seems like an empty marionette.He is like that guy that laughs at his bosses jokes just to climb in his ass
“Empty marionette” is the perfect description for Jimmy Fallon. Lots of people dislike him but America is a big country and TV stars are chosen who will appeal to everyone, including the 35% that are idiots.

One teacher in particular (Mr. Albrecht) was great. He would sit in the front of the class and say "For a PEZ, what is the answer to .......?" Once when handing back tests, he couldn't get to the back of the class so he climbed up on the desks and handed them back by moving from desk top to desk top. Then he did an experiment to show the effects of smoking by opening a window in the classroom and taking a few drags of a Marlboro. Our history teacher (Mr Bruno) came to work on a motorcycle and walked around the schoolgrounds in a 3 piece suit and flip flops.
We had a sadistic maths teacher in primary school. Hated teen boys in particular. If he didn't like something they did he would grab their sideburns and lift them off the ground. This was back in the 80s, hope it doesn't happen to any kid ever again
English as foreign language in germany, 8th grade. Our teacher was divorcing of her husband then, came in and said something like "I haven't slept tonight, everything sucks, you suck, and yet, I have to teach you now!" - offer to fill in for her ... and she agreed. I went through the homework, wrote down some notes, and she, at least told me so, actually took these into the grading of us. +, at other times where she felt unfit to teach, we watched Beavis and Butt-Head. Teaching sucks, that I learned that day.
