Today, I tried to explain to my history teacher why Woodrow Wilson would not have called the Great War "World War 1" as she constantly claims. I was sent to the office for my insubordination. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got an F because I’m an idiot and wrote my essay on WW1 instead of WW2. I offered to resubmit a correct essay, but my mom stormed to school to demand it be changed to at least a B, because it was a good essay, even if it was on the wrong war. God, she’s impossible and embarrassing. FML
Today, in history class I was called "ignorant" and "inconsiderate" because I referred to Stalin as a "he". FML
Today, my teacher assigned us teams in a class debate. I landed on the team that had to argue the obviously wrong point of view. When I finished, my teacher told me and the entire class how much I disturbed her, and how I reminded her of Hitler and Napoleon. 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, I finished my classwork and my homework early. Since we weren't allowed to leave the room, I decided to draw. My teacher noticed and gave me detention for "goofing off" when I should be doing my work. When I told the teacher I was already done, they gave me a second detention for "attempting to defy them". FML
Today, I got in trouble with my boss for doing what she wanted me to do. I guess she didn't think I would do it, so she did it herself. FML
Today, my so-called friend snitched to the teachers that I was the admin of the school confessions page and I got scolded after school. FML
Today, my assistant manager was arguing with a customer. I interjected letting the customer know that "we want everything to be copacetic." After the customer left, I received a write up for using "big words." FML
Today, I got cited for "internet plagiarism" and called to the dean's office. I'd been sitting a closed-book written exam, and my teacher had been breathing down my neck the whole time. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

How dare you correct your teacher, OP?! Don't you know they are ALWAYS right, even when they are wrong? Tsk tsk, you definitely deserved this! But, seriously, what a douche of a teacher.

Welcome to America, where you can be as right as you're possibly able to, but if someone says you're wrong, you're wrong.

It's like that everywhere, friend.

Being right doesn't mean jack, if you can't BE right - my annoying, though right, law professor

I have learned over the years to just mention inaccuracies once to teachers then shut my mouth and keep it to myself that they are morons

Remember, teachers HATE saying "I'm wrong" or "I don't know." And they cannot EVER say, "I'm sorry."

Good teachers WILL admit when they're wrong. The problem is that most teachers, mainly those in the public school system, think they're automatically right just because they have the degree and you don't.

The good news is that if you get some fake Roman coins marked "44 B.C.," you know a gullible fool who might be willing to pay you a lot of money for them!

To be fair once you get into FE education and study history (or if you study history outside of school), you learn that everything they teach you in Secondary School/High School is wrong anyway.

Teachers are like parents, they're always right, even when they're wrong.

May be the same teacher that tried to have a student suspended because he challenged her about her saying that a pound was heavier than a kilogram.

Technically, Wilson understood the the treaty of Versailles would antagonise the Germans and a war of revenge would soon follow.

Because we're always in the habit of listing things numerically from the start. Just look at the American Civil War 1, the Mexican-American War 1, the French and Indian War A. The list goes on.
