Thought of the day: I hate it when teachers are all like "hey, you know that stuff you learned in this class for the last few years? Yeaaahhh... It's not really correct and never was.... and is over 100 years outdated... TIME TO LEARN IT THE RIGHT WAY!"

I have a teacher who will interrupt a lecture to ask us a question, and then when we don't know it he reasserts that if he tells us the answer that we obviously aren't sure of we'll never learn it. he also constantly says that repeating information is the lowest level of learning or some shit, so he hands out fucktons of repetitive worksheets and makes us keep a color coded notebook with copies of everything we do in his class, brilliant.

Are you sure this person is a qualified teacher and not an escapee from a mental institution?

I made that complaint at the start of the year, he handed me his iPad and told me to type up a lesson plan that would work since his wouldn't. I just simply don't do anything in his class now, he's pretty torn between hating me for making him look bad every time the administrators look in the window and loving me for giving him really impressive test results to wave around and get attention for.

he's been there 9 years and the administration loves him. he also has an assistant teacher who does almost all of the grading for him so he doesn't have to. Even then though at least once a week we get a lecture on how hard his job is and every day he tells us that he's had a hard time lately and doesn't have any patience for us. He's also more disruptive to the class than some of the students, he eavesdrops on conversations, butts in whenever he sees fit, and antagonizes a few of the less well behaved students.

This guy should not be a teacher. At all.

It's disgusting when there's teachers like this, and they are around for a long time, because it just isn't right.

Agreed.
Also, your mini-Rheas are almost as hypnotizing as Shaadaris' signature.

seriously unless you're an 8-9 foor tall super soldier you won't be able to even carry that thing, nevermind operate it.

I should steal this design for my Vulcan droids.

i think that anti-tank sword qualifies as "fuck you" because that's
more like something you'd stick on a vehicle in terms of size and weight.

that's what I'm saying. in the image they compare it's size to a girl in combat armor, who is probably the intended operator, and yet it's size means it would be more at home in the hands of one of my Vulcan heavy infantry droids than of ANY human.
