Today, my English teacher used the word "interpretate" again. This isn't the only mistake she's made though; I've been so frustrated that I've started a list of them. It's over a page long. I'm meant to be learning things from this woman. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, the feedback my teacher wrote on my English assignment was so horrible that it took me half an hour and help from both my parents to decipher it. It turned out to be a scathing criticism of my "poor communication skills". I hate my teachers. FML
Today, my English teacher kicked me out of class for being "rude and disruptive." In actuality, I had called her out for having blatantly used Google Translate for several example sentences, all of which sounded as if a semi-literate foreigner had constructed them. FML
Today, I was teaching a class when a student pointed out that I'd used the wrong "your/you're" while writing on the board. FML
Today, I got back the essay I wrote about how my country's education system is fucked. At one point, I made a spelling mistake. My teacher wrote a note about it, basically calling me illiterate, and telling me to pay attention in school instead of whining about it. She misspelled "school". FML
Today, my boss yelled at me for ruining the report she was supposed to write with my "terrible spelling and grammar". I've checked it thoroughly, and all of her 'corrections' are wrong. She doesn’t believe me, and is refusing to look at a dictionary. FML
Today, my English teacher told me that I failed my grammar test. Her exact words were "You ain't gonna pass this class if you ain't gonna study." FML
Today, I got my language final exam back. It was a 10-page essay front and back, and I saw that I received a D. The teacher told me the plot was too hard to follow and it jumped all over the place. It turns out he forgot to read the back of every page. FML
Today, I received a terrible grade for an essay I worked really hard on. I had two friends, one being an English major, check it over. However, apparently I "clearly didn't use spellcheck" on this essay just like the last one I submitted to her. FML
Today, I had to listen to my classmate loudly argue a question she got wrong on a test for half an hour, repeating the same incorrect argument ad nauseam. She screamed at the rightfully exasperated teacher for being "biased" when he gave up, and started screaming again when I tried to explain it in a different way. FML
Today, I was teaching a ten year old how to play piano. Halfway through the lesson, she made a minor mistake, which, trying to be a good tutor, I corrected her. She smiled up at me, paused, then slammed the key cover down onto my fingers. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

'interpretate' is a perfectly cromulent word.

Once my English teacher rambled on for half a class about "Charles Dickenson".

Perhaps you are simply misinterpretating her? Sometimes people use words that are a little too pontificational when they talk, but irregardless you shouldn't get so disorientated.

Im not sure if you are aware but "irregardless" isn't really a word. it contains a double negative and the correct word is regardless. Both carry the same meaning.

Maybe you've just been "interpretating" her wrong this whole time. She is the one "learning" you :-P

I had a health teacher who also thought "irregardless" was a word, and used it a couple times per class. He was also the type who babbled about "the man upstairs" (in a public school) and talked about how "God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve." A terrible teacher as well.

What an idiot

My Anatomy Professor just got done telling us on our test that the cranial and spinal nerves are not part of the peripheral nervous system but instead they're part of the central nervous system. A girl spoke up that it was in her terminology book that they were in fact part of the PNS and he said, "yes, bring me the book so I can have the editor information and inform them they're wrong." I came home and grabbed up the definition out of my Mosby's nursing dictionary, took a pic and sent it to him. My statement was, "if you would like their editor info as well I will have this book with me Thursday." I haven't seen him yet, so we shall see! I feel your pain that I have paid for an idiot, and somehow feel I'm not really learning anything! Good luck!!

I had a women's history professor who said "um" 105 times in 50 minutes. It has to be some sort of record.
