And your point(s) is?

That is a nasty cough you have. Here, you need it more than me.
Aww, I think that's the one Simon Pegg did that advert for in the 90s!!!
I love the taste 
Yay for me inspiring threads!
My favourite teacher, though he's done things to annoy me in the past, is undoubtedly my History teacher, Mr. Smith. He's the one who jokes about having a black boyfriend, and made the innuendo about palm oil being used for penetration - but the English being scared of German penetration. He also uses random lyric references when they come up as part of an explanation, such as the classic "They were just trying to build up their empire, but why, buttercup?"

Not that either of you are wrong, but it seems dumb for you to criticise Gavin about it.

My grade school and high school teachers all sucked.
I decided to become a teacher because I wanted to be different from what I perceived as the norm.
But as I'm working in schools now it seems like I just had a really bad an uncommon experience. There are so many good teachers who spend so much extra time working with students.
So for me all these new teachers I'm seeing now are inspiring to me. Even the near retirement ones are invested in their work. It's great stuff.
I hated every single one of my teachers. They all had a weirdness about them & not one of them could understand me.
One even had the bollox to apologise to my mother for not being able to handle me.
Lazy bastards.
To think they have to worry about kids stabbing them these days & one little girl with a bit of a gob was hard work.
They all loved me in ickle school cos I was clever and good at drawing and that.
Middle school all went a bit pear shaped, and at grammar school it was a bit of a mix.
Fancied rugby/physics teacher Mr Harrington.
Hated art teacher who couldn't draw a stick man Mrs Woodhead.
Hated scary uber-cliche lesbian PE teacher Miss Williams, who hated me back, but loved me when she found out my daddy did running and that. The sycophant.
Never got picked on by any teachers though. They were mostly quite nice!

I'd say all my primary school teachers were tossers but there was a couple of teachers in secondary who were really good. Mr Hitchcock (yes real name) my history teacher was the best. I am of course brilliant.
Edit: My games teacher was Mr.Games. How cool is that.
At grammar school I had a teacher called Mr Gunning who was brilliant. He was in his 30s, had a mahoosive bald patch, and still lived with his parents, but he was the best teacher I've ever had I think. He taught me for English and German (he also taught French and some PE lessons), and he was always so enthusiastic about the subjects it would always rub off on the class.
And he had a fake front tooth, which fell out once when he was shouting at someone, which was absolutely hilarious.
Best quote from him was when we stole this boy Mike's shoe and hid it in a locker in the classroom, and then put Mr Gunning's banana in the shoe. When Mr Gunning saw he shouted "Hey! That's my ruddy lunch!".
I can't remember if I've mentioned this on here before, but at primary school one of my head of years got arrested for ringing up children at christmas and pretending to be Santa Claus down the phone. Apparently he was a bit of a paedophile.
I won't mention his name becuase he's probably been released from prison now, and I don't want to ruin the fresh new start he's made in his new job as a boy scout leader. Probably.

Mr Grimsdale was a bit of an institution (think he's finally left now though.) 
He had some kind of palsy thing which meant he limped and was numb on his right side. He used to stick his hand in acid in science class to freak us out. 
Sometimes he'd do it for too long and bits of his skin would come off.
He was f**king awwwwesome.

I loved him in the Norman Wisdom films he did.

Aweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesomeeeeeeeeeeee! That is seriously cool.
A few years before I joined, one teacher at my school, the head of the Maths, Science and Technology department no less, managed to set fire to her hair when demonstrating what NOT to do with a Bunsen burner... :/
