WHAT THE TEACHER TOLD ME

Reddit asked, “What did a teacher say or do to you that you’ve never forgotten?” Some of the responses:
– “Put your derriere in your chair-iere.”
– “You’re not a good liar. You shouldn’t do it.”
– “My 5th grade teacher would stand on a chair and sing ‘don’t you know how much i love you’ to the class when we behaved.”
– “‘Those who do not have the talent can compensate for it with diligence.’ It was a reply to a worry I had, and he was right.”
– “My biology teacher: ‘I know there’s a senior party tonight, if any of you can’t drive at any point during the night you can call me for a ride and I’ll take you home. I won’t tell your parents or get you in trouble, I just don’t want any one drinking and driving.'”
– “3rd grade-Mrs Jones. My dad had just deserted us and we were suddenly destitute. She bought my school pictures for us and paid my lunch bill all year. She never said a word about it. Only found out later.”
– “Girls don’t like drunk guys, so, if you want to hook up, let the other men get drunk and you stay sober. By default you’ll be the better option for girls or the girl you like.'”
– “My first grade teacher said, ‘god made dirt so dirt don’t hurt’ and then proceeded to eat a spoonful of dirt. I’ve completely forgotten the context around this event, but the act itself has really stuck with me. How bizarre.”
– “When my 8th grade history teacher taught us to memorize the map of the Mediterranean and Middle East… only to make us start over a couple weeks later because he had been making us memorize a map that was upside-down.”
– “‘Get out before you get stuck.’ I think he was referring to getting out of our small town, but it rings true for many things in life.”
