Today, during a lecture, my teacher jokingly talked about the time he was best buds with George Washington. Another student then asked, "Really? You knew him?" I'm in an advanced placement U.S. history class. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, during class our teacher asked us, "Who is Uncle Sam?" A girl answered, "He's the guy who founded KFC, right?" I'm in an AP class and have to put up with these morons constantly. FML
Today, I was talking to one of my supervisors at my new job. He asked if I knew a professor at the school I recently graduated from, and I decided to babble on about how shitty of a professor he was and how much I loathed his class. He then looked at me and said, "That's my dad." FML
Today, my college instructor told me I hadn't actually failed a big exam as he originally said. It turns out he'd mixed me up with another student. Now thanks to the power of gossip, half my class thinks I slept with him so he'd switch my grade with the other student's. FML
Today, at my art school, during the class my teacher left the classroom. I stood up from my seat to ask my friend something. When I sat back down, one of my guy classmates was sitting there. I sat on his lap and right at that moment my teacher came back. FML
Today, while teaching my history class, a girl asked me where North America was. She lives in North America. FML
Today in class I accidentally called my teacher very old and almost dead. As we were discussing a book I said that the book character is very old and close to death since it fitted to the context. Turns out this character is one year younger than my teacher and she wasn't amused. FML
Today, we were taking a bio quiz and I understood the subject, so the people sitting behind me asked me to help them out. Being a kind fellow classmate, I did. When the teacher got suspicious, she asked the class, "How are all of you getting the same answers?" everyone pointed directly at me. FML
Today, a classmate found out I have a boyfriend. He said, "Really? YOU??" FML
Today, my teacher began to explain Veterans' Day and why it's on 11/11 to a new student from Iran. He said he already knew, but this was news to almost everyone else in the class. FML
Today, I got an e-mail from my seminar tutor asking why I wasn't in class. I was sitting next to him. FML

Ah, George, that old rascal. I remember when he took his buddies out for a midnight row across the river to throw a surprise Christmas party. Good times...good times.

Maybe the student was being sarcastic, but I doubt it since OP decided to make an FML about it.

Well, I doubt that anyone could be that stupid, especially since they are in advanced history. OP, I hate to say, was probably making this up, or at least OP knew he was sarcastic and posted it anyway.

Or maybe he was being sarcastic and op is the dumb one?

66, that's an option as well. And 75, as much as you're shaking your head at that one, I've met a lot of people who are unaware of how exactly Hitler died. So I think it's at least a little valid to ask that question - but only to find out HOW he died, was he the victim of a secret operation or did he kill himself? For those who don't know and are reading this, it's the latter.

As long as your teacher knows what he's talking about, you should be fine

The teacher should give Assassin's Creed 3 as homework.

He might have also confused Washington with Bush.

Well I'm going to hope for his sake he was trying to be funny! If he wasn't joking and was completely serious, sorry you have to deal with morons Op!

Well people are there to learn, not discuss what they already know. its a bit weird that they didnt know, but cut them some slack, they're probably really embarrassed!
