23 Weird Things That Only Teachers Say Aloud at Work


When we asked the Bored Teachers community, "What are the weirdest things you've ever said at school?" we got the following hilarious responses, straight from the teacher's mouth. ENJOY!
If you haven't shared with us the weirdest thing YOU'VE ever said at school, then let us know in the comments for a chance to be featured in a future blog post!
On the playground with my Pre-K class shouting “You can’t just stick your finger in other people’s belly buttons!”
I teach high school Spanish II. One day I was looking at something on my desk when I heard a rucus to which I looked up and had no choice but to say, “Give her back her hair!”
Student’s coughing or sneezing loudly while I’m giving direction: “Would you please die quietly!” It always gets a good laugh, even from the student who is choking.
I fixed a fellow teachers computer screen so it would show on the data projector. I returned to my class how asked what was wrong. Before I thought about it I said. Mr w just had put it in the wrong hole. Much laughter was had amoungst my seniors, much to my embarrassment.
I teach physics. I made an exam question with “2 balls hanging from ropes” …. I didnt understand why everyone was laughing. I now call them spheres or masses. Also, doing a ballistic pendulum experiment in college they had to take a ratchet measurement of how high the ball went up…. after the first time, I began the class with the announcement “ok, lets just get this out of our system now. We will be discussing ratchety balls today”.
