Today, during class our teacher asked us, "Who is Uncle Sam?" A girl answered, "He's the guy who founded KFC, right?" I'm in an AP class and have to put up with these morons constantly. FML

Today, during a lecture, my teacher jokingly talked about the time he was best buds with George Washington. Another student then asked, "Really? You knew him?" I'm in an advanced placement U.S. history class. FML

Today, during my online class, I was answering my professor's question when my older sister slammed open the door to loudly say, "WHAT'S UP CHICKEN FUCKER?" My class heard. I hate online school. FML

Today, we were taking a bio quiz and I understood the subject, so the people sitting behind me asked me to help them out. Being a kind fellow classmate, I did. When the teacher got suspicious, she asked the class, "How are all of you getting the same answers?" everyone pointed directly at me. FML

Today, I got called into the principal's office of my son's school. Why? He'd called his teacher a "fudge packer". No more weekends with his uncle. FML

Today, as I went into my calculus class, the teacher announced that someone had received a negative grade on the test we were getting back. I laughed and said, "Which f*cker managed to get a negative?" Turns out I'm the dumbass. FML

Today, in my AP U.S. history class, we had a very long, very slow discussion about whether or not Vermont is a state. I think I lost brain cells. FML

Today, my teacher assigned us teams in a class debate. I landed on the team that had to argue the obviously wrong point of view. When I finished, my teacher told me and the entire class how much I disturbed her, and how I reminded her of Hitler and Napoleon. FML

Colonel Sanders has my loyalty when I was drafted into the war of fried chicken vs baked.

Are you the same one from a while back who had the other student ask your teacher if they knew George Washington?

Its okay, people in my AP US History class asked if California was a country and if Canada was near Russia. I just don't understand anymore.

I feel your pain. Some kid in my class thought that the Renaissance was one of the periods when dinosaurs were around. Smh

This is the reason normal classes should step it up a bit. Normal classes are too easy while AP classes are stuck with people like this.

While AP is not always filled with geniuses, it could be worse. I got bumped out of AP history halfway through the first semester because one of my advanced math classes was cancelled due to drop outs. The worst part is my teacher made us proof read each others essays (four or five essays per chapter). Besides not knowing basic things about American history, a lot of students lacked writing & basic reading comprehension skills. High Schools are pretty much just free babysitting.
