Today, in math class we were learning about gravity. To demonstrate my teacher asked me to stand on the desk and then step off. Upon stepping on the desk it curved inward and cracked. Everyone was dying of laughter. Fuck gravity. FML

Today, before class I was trying to prove I can twist myself like the people on the front of my anatomy textbook, I got onto a table and twisted my ankles behind my head. Everyone seemed impressed until I farted so loudly that it echoed in the hallway. I couldn't get my legs unstuck. FML

Today, I was messing around in computer class when somebody called my name from the hall. Trying to be smooth, I tried rolling my chair backwards out into the hall. The wheels wasted no time jamming and sending me crashing face-first into the floor in front of everyone. FML

Today, in calculus, our substitute teacher told me I was smart. Everybody in the class, including my friends, burst out laughing. FML

Today, during gym class, my teacher insisted that everyone should relieve some stress by throwing a basketball at the wall. I wound up and hurled the thing at the wall, it bounced back and hit me in the stomach. I began to vomit uncontrollably. Even my teacher laughed. FML

Today, in class my friend played a joke on me by pulling my seat from under me while i was about to sit. I fell and everybody laughed at me. During the next class, I did the same thing to him. He broke his arm. He was the star of the basketball team. Nobody laughed. FML

Today, in math class, I had the urge to fart. I had the bright idea that if I dropped my textbook and farted at the same time, nobody would hear it. I dropped my textbook, everyone looked at me, then I farted. Loudly. FML

Today, in physics class, my teacher was messing around with an air cannon and I accidentally blurted out, "Blow me!" It took me all of 5 seconds to realize why everyone was laughing. FML

Today, I had to present a powerpoint in front of my class. When I was finished, no one clapped. On my way back to my seat, I slipped on a pencil and fell straight on my face. That's when everyone clapped. FML

Today, a kid in class dropped his paper on the floor. I held on to my desk with one hand and reached for the paper with my other hand. I lost balance and tilted both my chair and desk over, nailing the floor as everything on my desk hit the ground with me. He picked the paper up himself. FML

Today, my math teacher raged at a student for eating an apple in class. As he yelled at the student, he slapped the apple out of his hand and right into my face. Everyone laughed, including the teacher. FML

Hey, I've seen some lard-arsed kids sitting on desks and they've been fine. It was probably an old desk. Or, if you ARE morbidly obese, sitting at your computer complaining about it won't help.

gravity is freakin' physics, not math! what the hell is that teacher doin? lol if "gravity" pulled you down so hard the desk broke, let's hope you didnt go all the way to the centre of the earth :D

Gravity would be covered in physics, yes. However, calculus was developed specifically to solve problems that arise in physics - so using examples from physics (especially the relationship between position, velocity, and acceleration) is one of the clearest ways to demonstrate concepts from derivation to integration. If this was pre-algebra or something, then there are far fewer options.

oh boy... that stinks. maybe your teacher had some hidden handywork in there and made it so the demonstration would cause a fail

You were learning about gravity in MATH class? Somehow I find that hard to believe. I know there is speed, velocity, and acceleration for purposes of differentiation and integration, but having to demonstrate gravity in a math class is hardly believable. Secondly, stepping off of a desk doesn't demonstrate gravity anyway. Btw, she isn't necessarily fat either. The desks are built so you have books on them, not people.

Today the teacher asked someone to sit on me to demonstrate gravity and It broke me in half FML

BS from the first sentence. Who learns about gravity in math class? For that matter, wtf does gravity have to do with math????

Don't blame gravity for making you a fatty.

I'm sure it was just an old desk. Your teacher wouldn't have asked you you to stand on the desk if you were fat and thought you were going to break it

#45, this is true, but even in college calculus, even though we covered a bit of velocity, we didn't talk about gravity and such. To those calling it fake though, I don't think it is... if I was making it fake, I would have said we were learning about gravity in science...

way to assume the OP is fat, guys. It also didn't have to be an old desk, i doubt most of the desks at my school could stand more than 100 pounds of force. What kind of teacher would make a kid stand on a desk? If the kid fell off and got a concussion the teacher would be responsible.
