wow.... your class filled with that kind of people?.... seriously FYL. Lol

haha this story made me laff :D

Depending on his wording, it could be completely valid question you know. There is such a thing as 'live rock', and very very relevant to biology. Just as any salt water aquarist.

Were you doing a study on rocks? What made him/her ask the question? Maybe your partner was wondering why you were studying rocks in biology instead of geology? Yeah, I know, its a stretch.

I had the same problem last year. an at the time junior asked me what a word search was...

that FML made me LOL :D

we did that the first day of bio also!

When I took Astronomy, one of the other students asked the teacher if the Sun was a star or a planet. She asked a lot of other idiotic questions too, but that was the one that stuck in my mind.

K, so this is Shelby, the person who wrote the FML. To whoever it may concern: When this guy asked me whether the rock was alive, I thought he was being sarcastic so I replied, "YES!! Haha." Then he wrote something down in his notebook and I asked if he was kidding. He looked up and said, "Just tell me the answer, I wanna finish my homework." Then he asked me if pasta was alive.

hope you said yes....... duh!
