As a former teacher
I have to say how much I appreciate the idea of kids fucking about in the back of the lesson that I've spent time preparing, and am taking the effort to deliver.

What with teachers being in a classroom for the shits and giggles of it all, you know. Not like they're there top try to help you get on in life or anything.

And people wonder why I hate teenagers. Self-obsessed, opinionated, ungrateful, tedious cunts, the lot of 'em.

no, he's told us before
what teachers are doing is pandering to the naughty and poor kids and giving the extremely clever ones like him a hard time

That's certainly what I used to do.
How about you, Cavy?

anyone looks like they're getting an A I ignore and throw out of the window

I would imagine being at a university
you've eliminated all the povvos and troublemakers. Do you just ignore everybody?

not uni - there's plenty of povvos and chavs in FE
to lavish my attention on

mr b3th studied photography at college back in the 60s or 70s.
I've seen his portfolio from back then. He's very good. He does amazing portraits.

Oh, yeah.
He totally knows how to do the manual settings, and the developing, and everything.

If I ever win the lottery, I'm going to buy him a proper Leica and a bunch of lenses.

I actually was a very well behaved pupil.
that RE was just my relaxation.
I still walked the GCSE though.
Checked through the booklet to make sure that I handn't missed a page.
I wasn't DISRUPTIVE, I just paid little attention.

I was a French and German teacher
and a lot of the kids on the sink estate where I worked had no use for either language. I'm sure they mostly thought my lessons were a waste of their valuable gossiping time.

No teacher likes to think his or her subject is irrelevant or unnecessary. While I understand that you may not have a burning interest in a core subject that you have no option to drop, it is incredibly rude not to give it your attention.

And just because you weren't throwing chairs around the room and calling the teacher a rancid bitch, that doesn't mean you were a good student.

Don't shoot me!
I liked French, did it as an option!

Okay. Now go back and re-read my last posts.
Do you think I was talking about MY subject specifically? Or might it have been a over-arcing comment about respect in all sujects?

A hundred years ago, only the nobility would have been educated past the age of ten. What you kids have now is bloody generous, and there really isn't a lot asked of you.

I know, I know.
That was just RE lessons, We were actually already aware of its content.
As I said, we weren't loud or disruptive.
Thing is, If I'd told you how much I loved school, etc etc, I'd have been called a teachers pet or swot, or worse by Bobby.
It's like I can't win.

oh have some balls
RE fucking sucks and every one with a brain, who lacks the balls to actually walk out, ignores it. just because she's older than you mum and has massive jubblies doesn't mean you need to suck up to her. If you're going to be a cunt, be an unrepentant one, not a spineless one.

for him as a 16 year old boy
or as the more likely mid 20's to mid 30's troll he probably is?
(, Mon 11 Jul 2011, 22:59, Reply)
if he's a troll he's a good one
and i'll admit a grudging admiration for the detail and subtlety employed in mimicking a brightish (for a 16 year old) but still really quite ignorant 16 year old Tory.

But I was talking about is persona.

A moment of clarity in an otherwise cloudy time
"It's like I can't win."
Now is your time. Let loose the canons of logic, drop the bombs of superiority. Then go to fucking bed when your mum tells you.
