Today, while in class, my friend would not stop annoying me by tapping me on the shoulder every so often. After the fifth time, I lost my patience, told him to F off, and slapped his hand. Only it wasn't my friend tapping my shoulder this time, it was my teacher. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my friend was picking on me at school by constantly tapping on my shoulder. At recess I had enough. I felt the familiar tap on my shoulder, and I drove my elbow into what I thought was my friend's stomach. It was my Principal. FML
Today, I was teaching and a boy sitting in front kept laughing and smiling, even after I asked him to cut it out. I got so annoyed that I jokingly said I'd knock his teeth out, and asked him to leave the class. The kid went to the principal and told him I intended to hurt him. I'm a college professor. 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, 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, my math teacher raged at a student for eating an apple in class. As he yelled at the student, he slapped the apple out of his hand and right into my face. Everyone laughed, including the teacher. FML
Today, I was listening to some music before school started, which is why I didn't hear my teacher sneak up behind me. When she laid her hand on my shoulder, of course I accidentally punch her in the face. Her nose bled. FML
Today, I fell asleep in class. I'm the teacher. FML
Today, at school I was sitting with a friend outside, talking about irregular periods and unshaven legs. Ten minutes into the conversation, a teacher sticks her head out the window above us and tells us to leave. We were distracting a classroom who were trying to finish a test. FML
Today, I was in sociology class and I raised my hand to ask a question, not realizing that the professor was right behind me. I smacked him right in the face, no doubt reducing my chances of a good grade. FML
Today, I was taking a biology final and was just randomly tapping my pencil. My teacher thought I was somehow communicating with the person next to me, and decided to fail me. FML

Just explain the situation and you should be fine.

"Should" some teachers aren't as forgiving.

That's a bit of an overreaction. But seeing as you "exploded" at your principal in the first place, I suppose it's your MO.

Getting angry isn't usually the best way of getting someone to stop annoying you as most of the time they are looking for a reaction, you gotta do some dead pan cold hearted remark like "if you touch me again i will cut off your fingers"

If you can't handle a tap on the shoulder or something similar every now and then, that's pretty extreme, and you should probably talk to a therapist to figure out why. I'm not saying that you have to start loving hugs or letting people play with your hair.

Saw an FML like this before only instead of slapping the hand, it was an elbow to the stomach, and the teacher was the principal

This all reminds me: When I was younger I accidentally dropped my jacket in the staircase area where it flew down two flights of stairs and landed on the assistant principals head (who I was terrified of.) I remember trying to causally walk by and acting like I had no idea who dropped the jacket when she was screaming. Wow. Fifth grade was tough.
