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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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 got kicked out of English class shortly after our teacher told us we have to write an essay on how the storyline of Harry Potter is one big allegory for "the futility of socialism." Apparently, reacting with disbelief makes me a "disruptive influence." 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, 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
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, I got sent out of the class for "inappropriate" behaviour. The teacher later forgot about me and sent a notice home to my parents stating that I skipped class. 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 had to explain to my teacher that Czechoslovakia is no longer a country. She kicked me out of class when she found out I was right. FML
Today, my teacher yelled at me for using my phone in class. I apologized out loud, knowing that it would help me get off easier. She was yelling at somebody else. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Well maybe you need an English lesson, because "actuality" isn't a word.

In actuality, it is. Maybe you need a dictionary.

actuality |ˌakCHo͞oˈalitē| noun ( pl. actualities ) actual existence, typically as contrasted with what was intended, expected, or believed: the building looked as impressive in actuality as it did in magazines | a mission was sent to investigate the actuality of the situation. • (actualities) existing conditions or facts: the grim actualities of prison life. ORIGIN late Middle English (in the sense ‘activeness’): from Old French actualite or medieval Latin actualitas, from actualis ‘active, practical,’ from actus (see act) .

Pro tip: Just because you don't know a word doesn't mean it's not a word. Claiming otherwise reveals how incredibly stupid you are.

Does "called out" actually mean "proved" in this case? Or does it just mean "really confidently accused"? Because the latter WOULD be rude and disruptive, even if said sentences were nigh-incoherent. Groundless accusations don't cease to be rude just because you're confident of them. If it was actually backed up with evidence, though, different ballgame.

Win for you my friend! And point that out to the head of the school that the teacher is incompetent.

Well, you were being disruptive. The right way to go about this would have been to speak to her after class, making your point without interrupting the class to do it.

No, this is not true. Waiting until after the class still allows her to teach the other students incorrect information. The class is there for students to discuss it, there is no need to wait until after it.
