Today, I submitted my big assignment to my teacher at 1:55pm. The deadline was 2pm. She rejected it, because her watch read a few minutes after 2pm, and she maintains that the time on her watch is the "real" time. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I turned in an essay after staying up late to work on it. I was away when the teacher assigned it, so I'd asked my friend what the subject was. It transpires that she'd given me the wrong one, all because she was mad at me for not returning her pencil. FML
Today, I got detention from my teacher for not handing an assignment in. It would be understandable if I hadn't handed it in a week before it was due. She won't listen to reason. FML
Today, one of my classmates asked the teacher to postpone her presentation because she had to study and the teacher happily agreed. When I approached her, the teacher started yelling at me because postponing deadlines is irresponsible. I just wanted to make sure we didn't need to bring our book. FML
Today, I pulled an all-nighter to finish an essay. I submitted it one minute before the deadline. Later, I opened the file to double-check and realized I'd uploaded my rough draft, containing notes like “THIS PART MAKES NO SENSE, FIX LATER.” The professor then replied, “I agree with your assessments.” FML
Today, my daughter decided it'd be funny to change the time on my clock. My boss didn't think it was funny. FML
Today, I was written up and given a penalty for being 3 minutes late to class. By my instructor. Who was 17 minutes late. FML
Today, at the office, my boss lectured me for being two minutes late for work, even though yesterday I worked on my lunch break because she needed my help. important to mention: my boss is my sister. FML
Today, I turned in an overdue English assignment at college. My instructor accused me of plagiarism, writing that my sentence structure was "TO" good. Seriously? FML
Today, I did a 3 hour long assignment for school. I was bored so I gave it the title "F***ing Assignment for a F***ing Teacher." I went downstairs only to discover that the printer was out of ink. So I sent it to her email, then I realized that I didn't change the title. FML
Today, I saw a person in my class completing a project that was due two periods later and that they had just started in the bathroom. They got a better grade than me. FML

Why'd you wait until the last minute?

Sounds like it's "really time" for her to sync her watch.

Been there, but you sent it via email and there's a clock on her laptop and a record showing that you sent it in before the scheduled time limit. If she doesn't accept it take it to the dean of the department. She can't make up rules as she goes. She'll end up getting in more trouble.

I completely agree that this teacher was an idiot. However, if this was such a big assignment, why were you handing it in 5 minutes before the deadline?? A five minute window is nothing! You could have had many things happen that would have made you late. Again, that teacher was crazy, but perhaps you should manage your time better.

You can never argue with a teacher. That is why procrastinating is bad. You will always have some sort of boss, or someone to answer to. Might as well not risk it. The boss, in this case your teacher, is in control. The one in control is always right, and by right I mean unable to admit their faults, but nevertheless, they make the rules and you must follow them. No matter how stupid they are.

You deserve it for being a jack off who waits until 5 minutes before something is due to turn it in. I'm with the teacher. She just taught you a valuable lesson (hopefully).
