    Our geography teacher was always banging on that "we'll be able to buy cars from anywhere in Europe in the next two years".

    In 1996.

    Our social studies teacher told us in fifth year (in a kind of sex education/responsibility lesson no doubt designed to try and stop students from 'deprived' areas ending up pregnant or impregnating somebody before they sat the Leaving ) that (she thought) oral sex was 'disgusting'.

    I assume that the 2-5% of the class not already doing it subsequently learned otherwise.

    Had a science teacher who told me a mate of his went messing with the mains electricity of his house and (after he'd been missing for a number of days) all the investigating police found was a pair of shoes and a pile of ashes.

    Probably total bs. Even if you touched a pylon the worst that would happen to you (besides dying of course) would be severe burning of skin, melting of the retinas and removal of hair.

    Same thing happened me once, but I managed to prove that there are only 50. He wasn't too happy about me showing him up.

    Also had to disprove a history teacher who was insistent that Poland and West Germany bordered each other... :rolleyes:

    My religion teacher espained marturbation by telling us of a six year ago girl who sat with her doll between her legs and got sexual pleasure out of this. 30 years later as a psychoanalyst I can understand the theory behind this but as a 13 yr old, I could not make the connection between that and cracking one out.

    As an 18 year old, I can't make sense of it either.

    What kind of 6 year old gets sexual pleasure from anything?

    They don't know it's sexual as such I'd say.

    Most of my teacher didn't really say weird things, they just acted weird.

    Religious studies teacher (A Christian Brother) who told of us a boy from his class many years ago that had an unfortunate accident. Apparently he was proudly displaying his penis to his classmates in the shower room as he was more physically developed than them. There was a fire and the alarm went off, causing all the fire doors to abruptly close shut. Seems the boy was standing in the wrong place and a some dangly bits got crushed in the door. I'll leave it to your imagination.

    Pretty sure this brother was a paedophile as he was always telling us stories where there was a least one naked boy. And he would bring a few boys out of walks around Dublin on Sundays.

    I wrote a poem in second class about students killing their teacher, and the nun who was teaching us at the time told me that I was going to "rot in hell" for it!

    Only a poem Sr. De Montfort!

    One of my teachers was giving out about the budget and said
    "During the height of the boom companies in Ireland combined were making 35 billion if they( the government) even took 1% of this in tax you would have 3.5 billion and no cutbacks would be needed now."

    Which if your slow or don't get what i'm saying 1% of 35 billion is 350 million not 3.5 billion

    Hey hey now, that's cutting a bit deep isn't it? Besides, the geography you learn in school is absolutely retarded and useless, the geography you learn in university on the other hand is... eh... em... All I know is: "History is about chaps and geography is about maps!"

    I was told I was "charming". I really should have got stuck into that maths teacher! She was a fucking cougar but super sexy!:D
