Today, my teacher told me that she couldn't find my hand-written essay on the Renaissance, and that I have to re-do it all by tomorrow. I later saw my essay on her desk, covered in a massive coffee stain that made virtually everything unreadable. FML

Spill coffee on your grade sheet and demand she redo it all

The fact she's giving you one day to re-do an essay SHE lost is already showing how "great" of a teacher she is, which doesn't really make the next bit surprising. Had she actually lost the paper, she should at least give you more time to re-write it. FYL, OP.

Aaaaaaaand that's why nobody writes essays by hand anymore.

#34, except for everyone who hopes for an A* at GCSE English, which actually requires that one of your essays be handwritten. I'd imagine there's a similar thing going on for OP, which is why it was handwritten in the first place when OP clearly has access to a computer. OP, if I were you, I'd have taken a photograph of my ruined essay to take to the teacher's superior. At least that way, even though you'd still have to re-write it, the teacher might be properly chastised. Also, always do the first draft on a computer, so you can save it.

OMG I had a math teacher like that once!!! She spilt tea on like everyone's quiz papers! Oh yeah and my French teacher used to actually LOSE OUR TESTS.

Oh lets not forget your English teacher. He/she did a horrible job at teaching you.

In 9th grade I had to redo an English paper 3 times because my teacher kept loosing them... She found them. After I graduated.so I know how u feel.

I think you need to go back to 9th grade English. Or even further back.

I once had a teacher like that. You always had to make a dated copy of your paper to prove you did it.

Damn, the egos of the teachers mentioned on FML are amazing.

Not to mention the egos of everyone else on FML...

Strangely, I wouldn't put this above my own teacher. In the future, remember that Xerox is your friend: keep a scanned copy of your finished report on your computer.

Who makes their students hand write anything anymore?

Decent schools, not the brat-producing crap most people go to these days.

Because the teacher wanted it handwritten.

Where does it say that the essay had to be presented specifically in a hand written form?

Where it says the FML is from France.. We have to hand write everything here (at least in most schools) ;)
