Murdering a bird sure is a great prank.

Also no physicist would ever said "I calculated the velocity, taking speed and force into account". It's such a clunky way of saying "trajectory".

Unless that is a teacher who writes dates the european way for some reason, it's interesting that they quoted a movie that wouldn't come out for 19 days in the US (although I guess they could have gotten it from the trailers, but still, it didn't happen).

It's based on books, though, so they could claim it came from that because the kids knew the movie was coming out. I still like your detective work. We need more of that and less "it probably happened because this similar thing almost happened to someone I know". You know, exactly what I did.

while I'm here, could someone repost the best version of the Atheist Professor stdh (the one with the bear wreathed in holy fire, "I'M THE ONE YOU WANT", etc)? I know it's like 20 places in this thread but it hasn't come up in a while and I need it for reasons.

I am the one lascivious
With magic potion niveous
A United States Marine was attending some college courses between assignments. He had completed missions in Iraq and Afghanistan . One of the courses had a professor who was a vowed atheist and a member of the ACLU.
One day the professor shocked the class when he came in. He looked to the ceiling and flatly stated, “God, if you are real, then I want you to knock me off this platform. I’ll give you exactly 15 minutes.” The lecture room fell silent. You could hear a pin drop.
Ten minutes went by and the professor proclaimed, “Here I am God. I’m still waiting.” It got down to the last couple of minutes when the Marine got out of his chair, went up to the professor, and lifted up his arm to strike him.
At that moment the professor was transformed into a 7-foot grizzly, wreathed in a halo of holy fire. The bear spoke: "Blasphemer thou art, thou thinkst to take the place of God? Those who deny me face eternal fire, but you who knows my work and yet commits the sin of Satan I curse a hundred times over!" The Marine went back to his seat and sat there, silently picking at his boils. Then Richard Dawkins burst into the room, wielding a copy of The Selfish Gene and crying "Leave that boy alone, you pathetic atavism!" As the holy bear whirled around, terrible light flashing in its eyes, Dawkins shed his mortal form, raised each of his seven horned heads, and hissed. "It'ssss me you want!". And then the Lord and the Antichrist joined in the final battle.
The other students were shocked and stunned and sat there looking on in silence

You mean the normal way? MM/DD/YYYY is an American thing. Also "pupil" is generally a British term, so it's likely that this detention didn't happen in Europe.

I started on the woman's side, because there are adults who only cater to boys and expect girls to suck it up because they're "more mature." The longer it went, though, the worse she got.

The point was that if the date was March 4 (MM/DD), the movie hadn't come out yet, since it premiered on March 23. If it was April 3 - the European way (DD/MM) - then it had.

No? When your six-year-old's teacher signs her name as Mrs. So-and-so on something she sends home with your kid, it's not because she's too stupid to recall her full name. It's because that's what the six-year-old knows her as and kids of that age are typically young enough to not realize that teachers are actual people with full names and lives outside of school.
