    What are the funniest things to have happened to you in class, either intentional or accidental. That's it really. Well, for example, I sat on a paint can lid and went around with a green behind for the year:o good times, it didn't really bother me either.

    The whole thing of not eating in class, well, I was having some mint aero. That melts easily enough, and the bubbles inside all but disappear. Somehow, I still managed to choke on the inside part. Still bemuses me to this day!

    Has any1 ever gone to mass with their class and not be able to stop laughin?

    There were many moments when my friend Aideen used to space out in class, and then when the teacher would say "page eighteen" or "question eighteen" she'd say "I AM LISTENING MISS!"

    Or there was this old-as in, in her eighties old-nun who used to be drafted in to do sub work and would spend the whole class making us read prayers or poems. Trouble was, she didn't know any of our names, and she had very thick glasses, so we'd never know who she was looking at. So she'd point at people and say "read that now" and the two people in the desk she was pointing at would poke each other and whisper "she's talking to you, read you idiot! Read!"

    Or the time one of our teachers drafted us in to do a clean up of the playground and the park down the road for the tidy towns. She handed out latex gloves for this, but somehow (she was bat **** insane), got it into her head after the clean up was done that someone had stolen exactly half of the box of latex gloves (it said x amount of gloves on the front and she read it as x amount of pairs of gloves) and roared at the whole class for being "lying, robbing little demons!" and called peoples parents in to give out to them about it :confused: she was a grade A retard, how she was left in charge of children I'll never know, she used to come in wearing odd shoes and back to front skirts and everything

    O my god we're all going to hell.....:o

    Similiar thing happened to me... The chaplain of my old school (who wasn't actually a priest just a real dry devoutly Catholic fella, who would have made a perfect priest) came to my class looking for volunteers for 'Eucharistic Adoration' which basically involves sitting around in silence looking at communion wafers hoping for some kind of miracle to happen. When nobody volunteers he says a few of us will be 'Russian Volunteers' (aka forced to do it) and we sat in the oratory... Then on comes this christian country music with Banjos :pac: We laughed so much adoration was cancelled :D

    This was not a once off though. People pointed it out and she kept it up as a matter of principle/insanity

    LOL. Did she say it or write it? If she wrote it and asks you to translate you have no real explanation why you did it

    2 of my friends and I recited "Bohemian Rhapsody", in full, with actions, in one of our English lectures last year.

    Another time a girl in my class was standing on the lid of the toilet and accidentally broke it, her foot was soaked and stuck in the toilet :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,534 ✭✭✭Dman001


    I was shaking this tube of paint to try and force the paint to come out and the lid fell off and went all over me. It was lovely bright white paint on my black shoes and grey trousers.

    Senile old teacher I had for history in 1st-3rd year and French in 5th year ws excellent fun:
    (Pointing to my friend) Her: "You, stand up now"
    Friend: "I can't miss, I have a broken arm"
    (Turns and points at me) Her: "Ok you stand up instead"
    Me: "What, that makes no sense, it's not my fault his arm is broken"
    Her: "But you're talking back to me now"

    It's embarrassing anytime I laugh! I do this weird shrieky thing that sounds like... Idk, a rabbit being attacked from behind? It's pretty horrific.

    And I've done the whole 'call a teacher mam' thing. In my case, my (male) maths teacher.

    Oh, and in French class one day, my friend pulled my chair out from under me when I went to sit down. Needless to say, WHACK!

    I fell asleep during a general assembley of the model united nations (it was a big one, not some little one in my school). Loads of pictures! I'm not the only one asleep in the photos though lol.

    Can't think of anything else too embarrassing at the moment...

    SAIMUN/Croydon? I know what you mean though. They can be horrible. Thank god for note passing.

    The best things happened in chemistry. One time, a teacher walked in asking for a X. Our teacher says no there isn't an X here but X has had this teacher for 5 years now and was sitting in open view. After that, we made loads of jokes about him not existing.

    Another time, some guy forgot to turn on his reflux apparatus (:cool:) and I watched the fumes slowly come out. They ignited and his whole area was in flames. We made fun of him for being an idiot after that.

    I was cleaning up after cooking chicken curry in home ec. I forgot to turn off the hob and was spooning my curry from the pot into my lunchbox.
    The worktop was covered with dirty dishes and i had nowhere to put my lunchbox so I placed it on the hob.
    It melted all over it. I ended up having to scrub the hob covered in melted hard plastic after school.:P

    My friend got pantsed in PE. God help her. I had to let out a laugh though. Thank god it wasnt me!

    No, Munol in Germany. It was awesome, mainly because they organised nights in the local pubs and sh*t for us- with no teachers, etc.
    Yeah, and thank god they all speak English lol!

    I can't think of anything else really embarrassing...but I did have a superglue stain in a suspect spot on my skirt for the last year and a half.... :P:D

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 94 ✭✭evil-yoda


    a teacher got mad at us for messing, she asked us a question, we asked her to repeat it.
    She start shouting over and over "I AM NOT A PARROT, I DO NOT REPEAT MYSELF! I AM NOT A PARROT, I DO NOT REPEAT MYSELF"

    I've two really funny things my friend said to the Vice Principal at the end of last year.

    He was standing in for physics one day. He was asking us questions about radioactivity which we hadn't covered yet, so he said "I can't hear anybody telling me the answer!" My friend muttered "that's cos you're old." The class all heard it and and had to struggle not to burst out laughing!
    Another time, I was standing in the hall with my girlfriend after school, after we had finished all the mocks, and she kissed me quickly, and he saw us. So he came over and started giving out saying something about being in school, and I firmly kept holding her hand, and my friend shouts out "Don't worry James, he's only jealous!" Everyone who heard it just burst out laughing, even the repeats year head who he was talking to before that. Silly man!

    2 exellent moments :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 929 ✭✭✭TheCardHolder


    We were in P.E class and the teacher was explaining the rules of badminton and how to play. My mate though he'd be cheeky and goes

    ''So the lads serve the cock to the girls?''

    :pac:

    About 4 days ago, An File and I were sitting in Prep for Teaching Practice. Along comes the religion lecturer. Anyway the lecturer is going on about how you can use juggling to help get a point across (don't ask) at which point she asks the 300 or so people gathered there can anyone juggle.

    About 30 seconds of awkward silence ensues when suddenly An File, being the wonderfully helpful person he is, screams out "PAUL CAN JUGGLE" and points to me. At which point I am coerced into coming to the front of the hall to juggle for EVERYONE. Bloody An File! :mad:

    I don't think I've posted in this forum before, so here goes:

    Erm in Mass a few months back (Corpus Christi I think), me and this girl were sitting behind the headmistress.
    This lad across the way, he's 'special', was roaring to himself silently, making a face that looked like he was screaming "roooooooaaaaarrr!" but with no noise. When he started the eat his tie, I burst out laughing.
    Jesus the bollicking I got for that.



    I got called impotent by my maths teacher. Never had any explanation for that one.



    Had a female supply teacher in badminton a few months ago.
    "No Tom.. you're doing it do hard. You need to be gentle"
    "Yeah, that's what all the girls say" (they don't, there've been no girls :o:p)
    *glare from Teacher*

    For anyone familiar with Family Guy....My brother and I watch it the odd bit together and are obsessed with the black character Cleveland, especially his voice and the tone of it. It's basically a fetish at this stage.

    At my lc graduation mass a few months there were a few priest saying the mass. Anyway, the last priest up to say a prayer had the exact, and I mean tone, pitch etc. same voice as Cleveland from Family Guy. I couldn't believe it, I started laughing but tried to restrict it as we were standing up but this only caused me to start making the odd gasp of laughter! It was just sheer brilliance, the fact that he was a white guy, a priest, just added a whole other dimension to it.:D Very funny. It still makes me smile now when I think of it. A true laugh out loud moment.

    Our English teacher always finds dirty hidden meanings in Hamlet.
    One sentence with the word ''cock'' in it and shes set off laughing.

    The other day in school my Irish teacher was giving out to me for something petty,so when she turned around I gave her the middle finger to her back as she walked back to the desk.She seen.
    Damn those windows and their really good reflections.

    my art teacher is like that-if she comes across a word like 'knob' she'll be really silent for a while to try and not laugh but you know she wants to!

    Me and my long time friend Neil used to try to get each other in trouble in Maths. For instance, if when one of us blanked out, and the teacher would ask us something, the other would give the person a completely ludicrous answer to make them sound thick. My favourite one was:

    Teacher: What answer did you get?
    Me: *wakes* am...
    Neil: (whispers) 4.723+2i
    Me: eh... 4.723+2i?
    Teacher: So what you're saying is, if I roll a dice and flip a coin a certain amount of times, the number of times that even + heads will come up is 4.723+2i?!
    Me: ... ... ... I have no response for that...
