I have never in my life met a teacher who wasn't purple on the lips from the hypoxia of living on Mount Stupid their entire life.
My three favorites were the literature/german teacher who was a 100% certain Chaplin spoke perfect German in the dictator, the "biology" "teacher" who told us animals don't have souls, because god only gave humans souls (ahem, biology), and the physics/chemistry teacher who grades us on whether we can recite definitions verbatim (and I mean absolutely verbatim, like you're reciting a poem), but was shocked that we didn't understand what any of these actually meant.
Teachers are literally the dumbest motherfuckers alive, if it weren't the case, they would be doing anything else but teaching.
