Words teachers said that made you laugh

[sadie]

settle down, james. i'm sorry to have touched on such a sensitive issue with you, especially since you have been keeping it on the proverbial down-low here as of late (thankfully). you seem to have some seriously deep-seated issues either with teachers in general or with me in general. might i suggest counseling? perhaps someone special could help you find those sore spots and work them out. though i'm doubtful that it could greatly benefit your whole personality, you never know.

for the record, i despise multiple-choice questions and rarely use them, though my students beg me for them. and for that reason, i not only suggested they circle the correct answer, but also that they write a brief rationale for any they felt were actually too close to decide. the student in question did not choose to take advantage of it, which was not surprising, since he rarely does homework or reads novels or finishes assignments even when give class time.

so there.
