Today, after I took my first set of exams, my professor posted on Twitter, scoffing at how stupid one student's answer was. The answer he quoted was one that I wrote. FML

Today, my math TA showed the class how one of her "dumb" students answered a test question. Everyone laughed as she wrote out the students answer, including myself, until I looked down at my answer sheet and saw that I submitted an identical answer. FML

Today, I realized that my Twitter profile was very public when my business professor made fun of student tweets in class. My tweet went, "Totally bullshitting this business report" about the report I'd just handed in, worth a large portion of my grade. FML

Today, I found out I've miserably failed a college exam. My friend had agreed to pass me answers if I needed them, since I've hardly studied this year. We were on the phone when she said, "Oh, those answers were bullshit. Serves you right, huh?" FML

Today, I got back my math test. Instead of taking the time to mark the mistakes, my professor just circled the bottom half of the page and wrote "OMG." FML

Today, as I went into my calculus class, the teacher announced that someone had received a negative grade on the test we were getting back. I laughed and said, "Which f*cker managed to get a negative?" Turns out I'm the dumbass. FML

Unfair failing

Today, while I was taking a test in class, there was a question that had everyone stumped. After what seemed like forever, the teacher finally noticed and said he'd typed the question wrong. I spent more than half the time I had to complete the test on a question that wasn't even written correctly. Yes, I failed. FML

Today, I walked into an exam after having stayed up 20 straight hours studying. The professor looked at me and muttered, "Don't bother, I'm failing you either way." FML

At least he didn't name you specifically.

That's not right, he shouldn't post that kind of stuff about his students online.

Your professor could get in trouble for that, teachers aren't supposed to talk about exam questions/answers.

You should publicly out him for it or something OP. Or just try better but it was probably just a bad test day.

Have him fired. That's not a very respectful teacher I'd say.

The thing that bothers me the most about it is that the professor should be fully aware that what he posts is public and can be seen by students. If he has a twitter and knows students follow him/can look him up, there is no way he should post stuff like that. That is disrespectful to not just op but all of his students, as they may worry they will be publicly made fun of in the future. I'd let a higher authority know what happened op, that kind of stuff usually isn't tolerated.
