"You'll enjoy ice skating, it's easy!" - the teacher who took our class to an ice rink... ๐
The moment I'm over the ice I become the human equivalent of a scruffed cat and people started pushing me around like I was a hockey puck and I was smiling pretending I was having fun but inside I was like
See you next year.
Edit: Oh, you mean actually wrong.
That "th" sounds like the letter "f". It doesn't but I'm nearly 40 and still can't pronounce it correctly.
Instead of touching your upper teeth with your lower lip, use the middle of your tounge to touch the upper teeth. That's all.
Not a Teacher, but my Boss. He advised me to clock in and out based on the system time, not GPS.
"The computer time is more accurate".
My 6th grade science teacher interrupted me while reading aloud after I correctly pronounced "tsunami". He goes "What's that?....tuh-soo-mee?". I said Yeah, he spends 10 seconds digesting it, and I continue reading aloud.
The next kid to read after me pronounced it tuh-soo-mee.
We watched an educational movie from the 1950s by Frank Capra, which my 8th grade science teacher had liked as a kid. He admitted they were somewhat dated, but still basically accurate.
In it, the scientist explained that they still don't understand how chloroplasts transform sunlight into energy. The cartoon chloroplast hid what she was doing and said something like, "The Russians don't know either."
I was pretty blown away by a scientist admitting they didn't know something, at that age, but when I looked it up, I discovered that scientists had pretty much figured it out, but it's very complicated.

One of my teachers told me that RL Stine died and for 20 years I believed her.
He's in his 80's right now. He seems to have made it this far just to show off to that teacher.
"Evolution is wrong. They will never find the missing link".
In the interceding 30 years the hominid family try has filled in quite a bit. Many closely related mammals have existed.
You have a wonderful mind. Too bad you never use it.
Fuck you Pat Fisher.
