I had a few in the past that I didn't get on with, and one of my tutor's on my last College course was... occasionally incompetent, but almost everyone has at least one bad teacher in their school lives.

Don't even bother with my old maths teacher

My first maths teacher was teaching us alright, but the way she done it...ugh, everyone was staying on G grades, god knows how i got moved into a smater class, I guess I got lucky on that maths exam since I'm either leaving school with an E or D

G grades... Dat education system. Seriously, getting lucky with an E? In America, E is the lowest grade you can get. It basically means "LOL U FAIL GO TO SUMMER SCHOOL"

Another lie: In any class ever: "You will DEFINITELY need this information to succeed after you graduate!"

I'm not saying you won't need anything you learned in school, just not most of it. Maybe a small amount will actually be useful, but then they bombard you with completely useless information and make you forget the useful stuff.

Well the lowest grade in the UK is a U which is basically the failing grade, with my first maths teacher you was lucky to even scrape a G

That is just science though, and science is just messed up with what it wants to believe because of money.

1.Global warming is the rise in the average temperature of Earth's atmosphere.A fact.
2.Meaning of theory within science:Well-substantiated explanation accounting for a body of well-substantiated facts.
3.They can't say 'living things popped up because god wanted it' in schools aye?And as you said evolution is very well supported.

1.There seems to be debate on it actually happening at the current moment, schools are teaching it like it is happening.
2.They treat it like it is the only theory and don't even mention the expanding earth theory.
3. Yeah you have a point, I don't even know why I brought that up other than to have a third item on the list.

My life is a lie.

Paying bills is easy
Getting and having a job is easy
family will always stick together
You will be rich when you get old
We are all equal
you will be treated equal
bosses are always nice....



I miss High-School.

That was primary school for me. High school told me the truth very early on, so it's easy to see why people don't get rich and happy. People tell them they can't, and so they think they can't and end up working somewhere they hate. The bullshit spouted out by other classmates, teachers and even parents that tell you that you are a "Nerd", or you are setting your sights too high, or that you will never achieve what you want to be. I don't miss that. I don't miss being extremely self conscious, trying to fit it, and I sure as hell don't miss the bullying. I wanted to grow up my whole childhood, and despite what people say, it's not that bad.

Bills and bosses suck tho.

My PE teacher in primary told me if I don't excercise I'll end up like sally struthers...bitch please I've been lazy my whole life and I'm still a fucking bean pole
