» Your Weirdest Teacher

Worms and molestation...not at once, thankfully...
Right then. Anyhow, my seventh-grade science teacher was a balding middle-aged man who looked remarkably like Bald Bull from Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!, but with grey hair. The look didn't bother me though, as his unhealthy obsession with worms quite handled that aspect of my life. He had this wonky bulletin board outside his classroom which read "Annelida Report" for the genus/order/similar name for earthworms. Quite odd. But at least he was a good guy and very easy to get along with; knowledgeable of pop culture and such. His oddity is nothing compared to the insubordination of the two to follow.

At my high school worked an English instructor with the name of Duncan who regularly showed up to work pissed and thus earned the nickname "Drunken Duncan." He resigned my sophomore year amid allegations of child molestation.

On that topic, my middle school's lead Special Education instructor was indicted for getting a bit touchy-feely with at least one of his male students. Doesn't my hometown sound grand?
