The Idiot Ranting Thread

[MasterProX]

Actual quote from Algebra II today, recreated word-for-word as best as I can...

Teacher:  That leaves us with the cube root of 3, can we simplify that?
Mario:  Uhh, yeah, because 1 x 1 x 1 is 3, duhhh.
(silence)
Me:  ...what the hell?
Class:  (laughs)
Mario:  No, wait, crap... I meant... 2!  It's 2!  Because... wait, no...
Class:  (in unison) Dude, shut up!
Mario:  Is it 3?
Teacher:  Just stop.
Mario:  OHHH, I get it now, it WAS 1...
Teacher:  (stares)

I don't get how in a class that's soooo easy, people can still be soooo stupid.

Haha, nope, didn't mean derivatives XD yeah by derivations I essentially meant proofs, although they're technically different processes (at least, in the way that I've been taught).

We did proofs in Geometry.

Our teacher made up words for taking the derivative (like derivatize), so I've started to associate the root of the word with derivatives.

If it's a Trig/Precalc class (which I suspect it is), you'll do trig proofs and a few logarithm proofs.

Apparently someone in my year said that mammary glands were located in a persons neck.

I know I'm not a scientist but even I know that that's not true.

Reminds me of the guy in my biology class last year who said that male nipples were only meant for the person to have something to play with.

Please, god, no. ._.

Must have gotten confused with several other things xDDDDDDDDDDD anyway mammary glands have to do with milk so guess where that is!

I remember doing a proof for derivatives/integrals of inverse trig functions in calculus. HAHAHA also stuff from differential equations. So don't worry, things are still good for you now!

She also said that Muslims were a country.

And that Wombats Lay Eggs.

OMG the amount of people who say call discrimination of Muslims racism is ridiculous. It's called being religiously insensitive. When will people learn?

[FierceDeity]

Well, one could argue that it's actually racism against middle eastern people, seeing as many people wrongfully assume that the two are one and the same. Granted, there is certain religious headwear that could be more definitive, but most people don't hold their discrimination to that level of scrutiny. For example, there are white Muslims. They may be a lot rarer, but they do exist, and you can bet that they receive a lot less discrimination than their middle eastern counterparts. While typical bigotry uses Islam as a grounds for discriminating against that region of the world and its people, and therefore refers to all of them as "Muslims", in reality, it doesn't require that specification.

What's a Muslim

[Dude]

Reminds me of the guy in my biology class last year who said that male nipples were only meant for the person to have something to play with.

...

...that isn't what they're for?

A Country.

This is offensive to me and basically anyone that works for a living. I suggested that she get a job as a cashier but she said she was on pills or something. Then complained that her "thigh gap" wasn't big enough. I could go on...
