I had an extremely lovely high school. One chemistry teacher rage quit, so the other one was forced to teach all the classes until we got a sub. That wasn't so bad but the sub was an extremely weird dude who taught us the wrong things for like 6 weeks and then the final exam was like, "Whelp, our bad? guess we have to dumb it down!! Make it open book!" Some enterprising student in 1st period got all the answers and then passed it down to every period so we all passed despite knowing gently caress all. Because even open book exams are difficult if you don't know how in the gently caress to do anything or what anything should look like, etc.

Also our senior geometry teacher rage quit and the sub just did bullshit worksheets/talked about his childhood in Michigan the whole period for about a month or two and then the computer science teacher gave up his free period to try and teach us but discovered that of course we knew jack all about geometry. I know more about growing up playing on the ice on the lakes of Michigan than geometry.

That same computer science teacher gave up about 2 weeks into both of the classes and just let us gently caress around online and copy programs from the book while he played Dumb and Dumber over and over until the end of the semester. There were legit questions about that goddamn movie on our finals. Both finals, geometry and computer science just...Dumb and Dumber finals questions. I hate that movie so, so much.

I can't do math beyond simple poo poo today.

e: Forgot our new Spanish teacher. She was totally unbalanced. Would assign us projects and then deny that she'd done so even though we worked on it all day. She did this poo poo all the time. She would tell us bullshit about Mexico like "everyone carries their small dogs because the pollution would kill them if they walked". Just straight up insanity about the culture would pour out of her. I really doubt she'd ever been to Mexico. Also exclusively ate cold McDonald's cheeseburgers for breakfast.

I had an English 101 or something teacher at college that was suuuuper easy to distract. Think we did only 4 essays the whole semester and never did homework, talked about or read the required readings. It was so easy to gently caress off that class that I was actually really pissed about it because I liked reading and learning about poo poo. Also if I missed more than 3 days it was an automatic fail so I had to sit and grit my teeth.

She mostly liked to talk a lot about how truckers on the interstate would pull up beside her and see her (dyed) blonde hair and dark skin (she was black) and her tits hanging out and think she was some kind of blonde, tanned beach babe. Imagine that conversation but stretch it out for like an hour a few times a week for the whole semester. Also throw in a random meetup with some friend of her cousin's that flirted with her once at a get together. It was a special sort of hell.

Note these truckers, that might or might not have actually existed, didn't do anything but drive beside her for a while. I'm fairly sure the friend didn't do anything but be polite at a cookout, either. She was a very, very thirsty girl.

The best English teacher I ever had taught Southern Gothic Lit and would make us take a test on the book before we read it, then tell us how stupid we were while dissecting the books. Basically he taught us backwards and made me realize that sometimes the protagonist can be a real dick and isn't actually the most important or best person. I made a C in that class but that was the only class I ever felt that I actually earned my grade.
