blast from the past - new info on a bad teacher I hate, decades later

[odeon]

I only had a teaching assistant...

but they're bound to be better than teachers, cos teachers are crap, everyone says so.

Easy to solve: become an assistant.

too late - i became a spazz instead.  if you can't beat 'em, join 'em, and all that.

I'm a spazz. I don't deserve a *real* teacher, anyway.

true.  if your IQ is 170, and you can do maths, you can send people letterbombs instead, though.  will that compensate?

I can do maths but my IQ is slightly less than that. I'll try postcards instead, all right?

If you knew anything worth knowing, you'd know that there are actually postcard bombs too. Mossad uses them

He has no great ideas worth sending bombs for anyway.

what a novel idea: "i have a fantastic idea, so i'll kill people, which will definitely get them interested, won't it."

for a start, he's missed the obvious flaw (blowing your audience into smithereens might be fun, but they probably won't be terribly receptive to your "message" afterwards).  it's a somewhat flawed attempt at reverse psychology, i feel.

This is a true gem. You're a contender for this year's Flo Award.

yes, i can believe that - i've got postcards from finland which made me want to spontaneously combust.

are mossad terribly active in finland, then?  if so, they really ought to get over their fetish about flowers.

But what if the dimmer ones have learning difficulties? They probably can't help it and caning them would only make them worse.

In that case then the responsibility of them would lie with the teaching assistant. Not myself.

so people with learning difficulties are the responsibility of the teaching assistants and not the teacher, are they?

christ on a pole... 

No, the dimmer ones with learning difficulties would be tbe responsibility of the teaching assistants. Its the only way to run a mixed maths grouping really.

[Lucifer]

bollocks.

how many have you run?

Postcard bombs are made of hard pressed C-4. The reciever is usually an Islamic terrorist.

More than you I suspect

Sorry, Hadron, but this needs to be said: God, you're stupid. I no longer think it's just an act, you've convinced me. You're dim and hence the responsibility of some underpaid assistant, now.

give me a number, then.  or will you be drunk between reading this and posting your reply?

I can add two numbers together that are bigger than 10, I think I can pass on that one.

You won't fool me again. You really are dim.

excellent - do just that and give me a number, then (see my post above, if you've already forgotten what i asked).
