    A guy in my class came in without his homework after a weekend.

    Teacher:Why?

    Student:I was in the US

    Teacher:Oh really, where did u go?

    Student : Nova Scotia

    (me and a few other laugh)

    Teacher: That's in Canada, you idiot

    (Whole class laughs)

    This was in 6th Year. We were the higher level English class and all of the class were doing higher level in the majority of subjects. It didn't say much for the rest of the class also


    The next week, the teacher asked him what he did for the weekend. His reply was "Yore Ma".

    there was a lad in our primary school class who was always telling stories like

    "my da fell down the stairs, and landed on his head and bounced back to the top of the stairs"

    forget other examples.. but know when we heard this, no one bothered to say anything..

    I think the orange is for the Protestant community, to indicate peace between the two. Not certain now, but that's what I thought.

    I remember a teacher asking for an explanation for an equation and the response was " An optical illusion?"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,814 ✭✭✭TPD


    My physics teacher asked a student if they could see air (that invisible stuff) getting into a belljar (transparent, no so much as air though), which was meant to have a vaccum in it.

    She also crossed wires, and when told that she had crossed wires, carried on the experiment thinking that it didnt matter where the electricity went.

    Student: "but how do they play basketball without the ball" :)

    Then there was the Religion teacher who would always say he was goin to get the principle because of our behaviour and storm out of the room, only to return 10mins later wit a cup of tea. He did this nearly every class and never came back with anyone. Then one day we locked him out of his room and from then on we were on class report with the yearhead and principle paying us a visit nearly every day:)

    Edit: And then there was the history teacher that used to call out notes for us to write down and she insisted on spelling nearly every word with more than 4 letters in it, and also telling us when to put in full stops/comma's. One day she was calling out a sentence and an the end she said "full stop". I asked her how do you spell full stop and she started spelling it and i pretended to write it down until every1 burst out laughing. Then i got in ****:)

    caught talking in class (asking about maths).

    Miss : Stop talking or you'l be doing foundation level.
    me : Won't be doing foundation level miss.
    Miss: You will
    Me: No I can choose to do what I want I can go up to higher on the day if I want.
    Miss: No you can't you'l be doing foundation level.
    Me: no I wont.
    Miss: Get out.........

    Hated that teacher. She was the most boring maths teacher who could not actually get her point across ever. It was only in college I began to understand it :rolleyes:

    There were tonnes of them. Most of them in car crashes I seem to remember.


    Daftest one was Johnny Knoxville dying after jumping out of a plane without a parachute.

    Steve-O from Jackass was meant to have died as well.

    What was the story with all of these rumours?

    I think that one is a myth. We were told (by a nun) that to sit on a boys lap or a bus seat that a boy had just vacated would result in us getting pregnant - her prevention cure was to bring a TELEPHONE DIRECTORY or a sheet of brown paper to sit on for protection :D

    Nope, Coolmine in Clonsilla. Which part made you think that?

    Oh and prob the most stupid thing we were told was that we would be getting a new school built this summer (told this every year) and then on in my last yr there we only got new toilets, while the rest of the school was falling apart and leaking in averywhere.

    Oh, there was one poor guy in primary school who was always coming out with gems.

    One was that his dad's job involved shooting (canon-style) people's dead bodies up in to space so that they get to heaven.

    Another time he tried to tell the teacher of a short-cut from Dundrum to Bray through Enniskillen. The teacher sent him out of the room.

    Best one i can remember was when i was sitting next to this really thick guy one day in science... he was a nice guy but... thick... Anyway the science teacher asked him what *random thing in her hand* was... This guy was stuck, had no idea... for the craic i whispered to him that it was a calgon tablet.... I couldn't believe it when he sat up proud as punch and said " Its a calgon tablet miss!" I knew he was thick but not that thick!!!

    What was worse the teacher knew i had told him...and just gave me a look as if to say "will you ever leave him alone!" Good Times.

    I did an adult class over the past ten weeks there. Was amazed they actually had the fabled new toilets :pac: We were hearing that one for years! Though more people wanted a larger bike shed :D

    Green for the nationalist Irish, Orange for the protestant orangemen and white signifying peace between the two

    When doing the maths in the mocks a lad near me shouts out -

    "X, what the **** is X?"

    I think the paper said something like -
    Solve for x,
    x / 5 = 5

    we convinced a guy in our class that the clitoris was in the ear.. then fixed an argument so that he was arguing it was in the ear.. we then got him to ask our science teacher "isnt the clitoris in the ear"

    Possibly one of the funniest moments in my life.

    Meself and the biyez were walking around town at lunchtime and we saw a knife on the ground, so one of the biyez picked it up. Then I said "jesus don't pick that up, it could have been used by a mass murderer!!!". So my friend dropped the knife on the ground and said "sh!t better get rid of the finger prints" and he started cleaning his hands.... stooooopid.

    that i wasn't capable of honours maths. I dropped to pass and by the time i decided i could do it i'd missed too much to go back up

    I went on to get first class honours in an electronic engineering degree involving maths far beyond anything in the LC (after doing a cert course first because engineering degrees require honours maths) and that catch you next tuesday stopped teaching and became the guidance counciller's assistant because she realised she was a **** teacher


    Edit:i dropped to pass because i hadn't a clue what was going on in the class. Turns out no one had a clue because she was ****
