Today, as a science teacher, I did a science experiment in front of a class. One of my students asked me if it was "photoshopped." He was being serious. FML

Today, I had a science test. A question asked, "What is the first stage of photosynthesis?" I didn't know, so just trying to be light-hearted, I wrote, "The plant must first believe in itself." My teacher didn't think it was funny, and gave me detention for insulting her intelligence. FML

Today, in science class, I was bored and playing with a paper towel, dipping it into a container of water. When my teacher caught me and asked what I was doing, I panicked and said I was "drying the water." FML

Today, my science teacher decided not to recommend me for an honors science class for next year. The reason? Last week, I made the mistake of asking whether spray tans give vitamins in the same way as the sun. FML

Today, as a natural science teacher, I was drawing a uterus on the class chalkboard. One of my students started messing around and being noisy, so I shouted, "Be quiet and check out my uterus!" FML

Today, while teaching my high school class about astronomy, I showed them a picture of earth from space. One girl raised her hand, and asked me what the "white things" were. In other words, clouds. FML

Today, in physics class, my teacher was messing around with an air cannon and I accidentally blurted out, "Blow me!" It took me all of 5 seconds to realize why everyone was laughing. FML

Today, during science, my friend thought it would be funny to pour corrosive acids into the reaction test I was making. I had to explain to my parents why I have no eyebrows, but the worst part is that I only got a D. FML

Today, my professor asked me a question in class. Thinking it was a rhetorical question, I shrugged and said, "Google it." It wasn't. He stared at me in silence for the longest 10 seconds of my life. FML

It amazes me how some of these kids have no perception and differentiation of reality and virtual reality... Or is this all a lie? Are we in the matrix?

Stupid is as stupid does. But as a teacher, you should probably reach out and give the kid some tutoring.

Reading is not your strong suit, is it? OP said the student was seriously asking.

Some people either just don't think when they speak or are really dumb... FYL for sure.

That's pretty bad, but for somebody young it's actually somewhat understandable. That word has been used to mean "faked" for most of their lives. Words have a tendency to lose/change meaning over time in that way. For example, I have never used a rotary phone. For my whole childhood, I thought to "dial" meant to push a button, because that's how it was always used.

Unless OP is the instructor for an elementary level science class, it's definitely not understandable. Anyone over the age of 10 should know that Photoshop is not synonymous with "fake" when referring to actual events.
