The fall semester is in full swing, and Jimmy Fallon has decided to celebrate it. For the hashtag segment on The Tonight Show, Fallon has asked people to tweet the craziest things about their teachers. And even thought it is a subject he already explored a few years ago, the abundance of hilarious replies prove that it's inexhaustible. From personal remarks about their marriage to social experiments in class, these teachers and professors will certainly remain in their students' memory forever. Just not necessarily in a good way.

In my school we had the Thompson family-- 8 kids. A lot of them were in the school band, and our band director would just call them by their number. Peter was 7. Eileen was 8. He joked that he would retire after they all graduate. Sure enough, Eileen graduated from high school, and our band director retired.

Had an english teacher in high school tell us our reading assignment. One of the "class clowns" groaned at the idea of homework. She said "Brian...do you know how that makes me feel every time you do that? I want you to come up here and be the teacher so you can see how it feels." So he got up and turned to the class "Read page 10 to 210!" My teacher, sitting in his desk starts yelling, "WHAT?!? YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING! THAT'S SO UNFAIR! C'MON EVERYBODY! REVOLT!" His face turned beet red. He apologized and returned to the desk. After that, homework assignments were met with dead silence......

Our history teacher would intensely lecture Monday - Thursday. If we kept up, he'd reward us with a game of Jeopardy on Friday pitting one half of the class against the other. My proudest moment was when I, an ordinary student with a 2.6 GPA, was one of only two students that raised their hand to the question "Which 4 presidents were assassinated?" When I answered them correctly, the other student who was the 4.0 GPA number one student in the class turned around and looked at me in disbelief.

We had a history teacher, Mr Bruno, that would use shorthand terms for relaying information in order to cram as much into lectures as possible. Things like "This country went to heck in a hand basket" or "This company was sucking swamp water." One of the students did the "morning show" before first period. On the last week of class he did a piece called "Mr. Bruno's phrases and what they really mean." AKA Sucking swamp water meant they were not doing great financially... After the show was over, he walked into first period (History with Mr Bruno), face beet red as Mr Bruno stared him down wearing a smirk on his face. I knew that translated to "This ain't over Hayward."

Our high school rugby team were known as partiers. The coach tried endlessly to find out who the drinkers were. So one road trip, he asked two of his trusted straight and sober players to make a list of names of players that were illegally partaking in alcohol. Monday morning and the team showed up with a new haircut. The right side of their heads had the hair shaved off in a line over their ears. When the coach asked who the drinkers were, they said "look for the shaved heads." It seems when these player were drunk and passed out on the floor, the honest players shaved their hair as they slept. Oopsie!

You did not write if all of the players, including the 'straight' ones, had the new haircut. If all of them had it, it's a good team. If only some players had the haircut, these 'honest' players are not honest - they are a*s-kissing traitors which hopefully have difficult times in the team.

People were in shock all day and there were a lot of emotional moments. This teacher sent me to the office to pick up some papers, and when I returned, I saw her bolt out of the hallway crying. She said "I was teaching and suddenly it hit me that any one of those kids could be next." I had a student go get her husband (He taught english on the same floor) and I took over the class for her. When the class asked what happened, I told them about the student's death. I told them then and there that I had a rough and abuse ridden life and that if it weren't for good friends, I wouldn't be standing before them. I said to reach out to people you think are flailing and offer to help. If you are flailing, go to the counselors, your teachers or admin and ask for help. I pray I got through to them.

The physical sciences don't have much lab work. Some classrooms are half desks and half lab and some schools have "lab days" where students report to the lab on designated days and the regular classroom on others. In the younger/lower grades only the teacher does experiments so there is one "lab" station up front but everything else is carpeted. So yeah, carpet in science.

When I was 6, the whole family went camping in the mountains. As we were going to bed one night in our tent and we were just falling asleep, we heard a scream from outside. Our tent came down, everything was packed up and we left. Found out the next morning that a mother bear and her cub wandered into the campsite and my grandmother, being the strong woman she was, hit the bear in the head with a camp chair and threw canned food at it until it left. Decades later at her funeral, the pastor says.."And I understand there was an incident with a bear" at which time our whole family starts chuckling.

My stats teacher told this joke - A statistician went out javalina (small, wild pig in the southwest) hunting with a bow and arrows. Saw one! Took a shot and missed one foot to the left. Took another shot and missed one foot to the right. They yelled, "Got him!!"

Funny how even the grammar police have flaws in their criticism. You really need a period at the end of your sentence. Also, the sentence has no subject. Oh help... I’m becoming the very thing I despise.

My mother-in-law was a teacher for a high school. She said when she died, she wanted to be cremated and mixed in with the foundation of her old high school so she could go around and haunt the kids into behaving themselves.

We had a PE teacher (he was married) that had an affair with our Vice Principal (she was also married). All the students knew for about half the year. As soon as admin found out, she was transferred and they both got divorces.

I had this condition during my teens that if I hit my elbow or knee just right, I'd pass out. Well one day I finish taking a written exam in driver's ed and, after turning it in, returned to my desk, banged my knee, sat down and passed out. I woke up lying on the floor with the teacher standing over me... his hands over my ears saying "Can you hear me? Are you OK? Can you hear me?" I said "Not with your hands over my ears." And he laughed. I was sent to the nurses office where the Vice Principal gave me a big hug. But I did get to go home early.

I would show the comments of former students on the Rate My Professor site. The students laughed at all the grammatical and structural problems. It was great entertainment, until the dean told me to stop. I was using it to show statistical error in sampling...

English teacher would make gum chewers do that or they could recite the following: a gum-chewing kid and a cud-chewing cow, there is a difference I think somehow, Oh yes, I know, i've got it now, An intelligent look on the face of the cow.
Nikki D 7 years ago
What is the reasoning behind the no gum policy, anyway? As long as you aren't popping it, blowing bubbles or chewing with your mouth open, it's not like it's a distraction.
thepotatogirl 7 years ago
yeah but that's ALL the students at my school would do... once I was in study hall and the teacher decided to give EVERYONE a piece of gum, so of course EVERYONE (except me), took one. the rest of that class that day was nonstop TORTURE for my ears

A teacher did this to my brother once, the cut on his forehead required stitches, she was relieved of her teaching position. This was over 30 years ago, but it wasn't the first time she had deliberately injured a child, it was just the last straw for the school and the school board.

A good teacher would have said "behave yourself!" and leave it with that. And then try to get the whole class silent and concentrated again.
Chris Vicks 7 years ago
No. Not Really. You would let a kid get away with a sexual reference and that wouldn't make the kids focus again. It's disrespectful.

A former (retired, not dead) colleague of mine would snack on peanut butter & crackers in his office, daily. After licking the plastic butter knife, he often said to me, "Mike, you know that I wash this knife once a month, whether it needs it or not..." He taught economics for business and was a tax accountant on the side. He is probably wealthier than he appears. -Dr. M, former professor of economic history & ethnic studies

On college, my English prof was late for class one day. Suddenly the door burst open and he galloped in while reciting "The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere". Around and around the room until he got to the last line which he recited while going out the door. A few minutes later, he calmly walked back in and began class, as if nothing had happened.

In high school we had a teacher who always had a yard stick he would use to point and bang on the desk if we were not paying attention. One of my friends was bad for falling asleep in class so he would always hit her desk. She got tired of it and hid the stick lol

Many younger people dont realise that a yardstick was exactly that - a 3ft long ruler. My generation in the UK got incredibly confused when we metricated at age 6 - the yardstick became 100cm which was longer than a yard. I still think in inches, pounds and miles and have to convert all measurements in my head
