Get out

Today, my English teacher kicked me out of class for being "rude and disruptive." In actuality, I had called her out for having blatantly used Google Translate for several example sentences, all of which sounded as if a semi-literate foreigner had constructed them. FML

Same thing different taste

Underfunded and underappreciated

Today, I got back the essay I wrote about how my country's education system is fucked. At one point, I made a spelling mistake. My teacher wrote a note about it, basically calling me illiterate, and telling me to pay attention in school instead of whining about it. She misspelled "school". FML

Well maybe you need an English lesson, because "actuality" isn't a word.

In actuality, it is. Maybe you need a dictionary.

actuality |ˌakCHo͞oˈalitē| noun ( pl. actualities ) actual existence, typically as contrasted with what was intended, expected, or believed: the building looked as impressive in actuality as it did in magazines | a mission was sent to investigate the actuality of the situation. • (actualities) existing conditions or facts: the grim actualities of prison life. ORIGIN late Middle English (in the sense ‘activeness’): from Old French actualite or medieval Latin actualitas, from actualis ‘active, practical,’ from actus (see act) .

Pro tip: Just because you don't know a word doesn't mean it's not a word. Claiming otherwise reveals how incredibly stupid you are.

Does "called out" actually mean "proved" in this case? Or does it just mean "really confidently accused"? Because the latter WOULD be rude and disruptive, even if said sentences were nigh-incoherent. Groundless accusations don't cease to be rude just because you're confident of them. If it was actually backed up with evidence, though, different ballgame.

Win for you my friend! And point that out to the head of the school that the teacher is incompetent.

you derserved it for being in class in your school system.

no you retard i'm saying people who think they know it all or annoying, there is a difference between people who are smarter than you and people who are smarter than you and know it. they act differently, as in knowing they are smarter and therefore think they are better than you. but nice try

Well, you were being disruptive. The right way to go about this would have been to speak to her after class, making your point without interrupting the class to do it.

No, this is not true. Waiting until after the class still allows her to teach the other students incorrect information. The class is there for students to discuss it, there is no need to wait until after it.
