Jeremy

By alicia75 - This FML is from back in 2014 but it's good stuff - United States - Elkhart

Today, my teacher told us at least 7 different stories about his cat, Jeremy, and how much he eats. And he wonders why we never get anything done in his class. FML

Turn in notes of the stories and claim it's all you learned.

Hopefully, that makes class not boring, unless it's a fun class.

Idk, but he sounds great to me except for the part where you don't get to your work. Perhaps compromise? 50% story time and 50% working?

Sounds a lot like my Spanish class. I know you're pain, OP

If a teacher ever got on a tangent in class I'd usually have a novel to pull out. Depending on how much respect I had for them, I would read under the desk or above it or, on one occasion when she'd derailed us for what felt like the hundredth time on the same chapter, I took off my coat and made a seat on the floor so I could stretch out. If you're not gonna teach I have Harry Dresden on hand, thanks so much.

I feel like this cat is the kind of cat that gives zero *****. Something about a cat named Jeremy who eats a lot sounds like a giver of no *****.

Lol, that reminds me of my 9th Grade English teacher, except he used to tell us crazy stories about his sisters and the awful gifts they would give him at Christmas, like an ashtray that he claimed was the size of a salad bowl with a topless mermaid, and guess where the cigarette was supposed to go? And he couldn't return it because she bought it at a flea market.

My 11th grade English teacher went on tangents about pretty much anything other than what we were learning. Then yelled at the class for our grades. He was fired after that year.

What the heck? When I was your age, I loved it when teachers wasted class time with dumb stories!

I know how that feels. My sophomore math teacher came in and excitedly told us that he had spent the weekend playing Call of Duty instead of grading our tests. Needless to say, I got a C, and my mom had to make sure I didn't have him again.
