Today, I tried to explain to my history teacher why Woodrow Wilson would not have called the Great War "World War 1" as she constantly claims. I was sent to the office for my insubordination. FML

How dare you correct your teacher, OP?! Don't you know they are ALWAYS right, even when they are wrong? Tsk tsk, you definitely deserved this! But, seriously, what a douche of a teacher.

You should have already known that teachers are always right, even though they're dumb asses.

Sadly, most teachers are more concerned with being in charge and in control than they are with actually teaching. And being a former teacher myself, I can attest that this approach is encouraged by the administration and the education system. I became a teacher because I wanted to make a difference. I left because I knew I couldn't.

pleasssse read the previous comments. you will understand then.

and these people teach us. my favorite is my english teacher consistantly misusing "there" "their" and "they're"

Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Give stupid, stubborn people power and you're brewing an utter shitstorm.

When it comes to such a critique, you should have addressed your instructor one on one and put them in the position of correcting themselves. This allows them to correct the inaccurate info, and still maintain the illusion of superiority before the students. This teacher was a stooge but you both could have handled it better.

I would call to a local school board and teachers college. She needs to be reconsidered with her credentials.

sometimes it's better to just be quiet and let others make themselves look stupid.
