We all have our own definition of a good teacher but I think we can agree that the word "composed" is somewhere in it. However, if there's one thing students are good at, it's testing their limits.
Interested in how far the little devils can take it, Reddit user u/jeffzhang69 submitted a question to the platform, asking, "Teachers, what was the [sassiest] response from a student you have heard?" Turns out, there's many.
As of this article, the post has over 9K comments, many of which feature funny, disgusting, and even sad phrases students throw at their teachers.

I've told this story on reddit before but this really shy kid that doesn't really speak much was getting picked on by this mean girl when the teacher tells her "be nice to him, he might be your boss someday," without missing a beat he replies "no thanks, I don't want to be a pimp when I grow up."

I feel bad for him, but that answer was seriously messed up and degrading. That wasn't cool.

I agree with you. It's not cool to use prostitution as a proxy insult. Those jokes are based on the pervasive social stigma that people who work as prostitutes are worth less, and therefore, it's an insult to be compared to them. It's similar to saying "That's so gay" when you don't like something. It perpetuates hate and the belief that certain people are inferior, deserve mockery, and are abusable/disposable. If you want to insult someone, do it without insulting an unrelated third party. Also, what the teacher said sucks too. You don't treat people well only when they are your boss/superior. You should try to treat everyone with respect regardless of their job "ranking".

How on earth is this first? This was a great opportunity for everyone to learn to react better, meanwhile we have a horribly behaving girl, a teacher that assumes that of course the boy will be the boss and the girl will be in a lower position and a boy that despite being shy just called the girl a whore! That's not a success story that's a horrible story for everyone involved!!!!

S**t shaming a child, sexism, and degradation. And everyone thinks it's cool. Obviously, she said some not nice things so she will be unable to do anything more with her life than sell her body. How is this better than anything she said to him? As a teacher, that's not what we consider a successful outcome of a moment like that. Though, the teacher's response was stupid, too. Last time I had a girl being mean to a quiet boy and had a private conversation with them about it she pulled out the screenshots of the things he said to and about her online. And that's elementary school. Don't judge without all of the info and don't pretend its OK from one side and not the other.

The point of teh Matter is he didn't start it. So he is not responsible for where the conversation ends up. If u act like a bitch u get treated like a bitch . Just because she is a girl doesn't mean she shouldn't be getting attcked. & We never know the whole story. It's just not possible. If wait to know whole story we won't be able to act at all

🤦 The teacher's comment was sexist & makes me wonder whether s/he is contributing to an environment that permits bullying. Also, the young man definitely should be encouraged to defend himself, but within boundaries: implying the mean girl is or would become exploited by a pimp is not ok.
To find out more about what goes on in the classroom, we contacted Larry Ferlazzo, who teaches English, Social Studies, and International Baccalaureate classes to English Language Learners and mainstream students at Luther Burbank High School in Sacramento, California.
"I know that the word 'discipline' is often connected to punishment or correction," Mr. Ferlazzo told Bored Panda. "If you go to its word roots in Latin, though, you'll see that it's mainly related to 'teaching, learning, knowledge.' I think teachers are likely to be far more effective in creating a positive classroom environment if they focus more on the latter definition than the former."
"This kind of positive classroom environment includes respect for a few simple rules but also allows for flexibility. It's based on strong relationships, both between teacher and students and between students themselves. It recognizes that we all have bad days, none of us are perfect, and that we all are part of a classroom community of learners and not just a room full of students. With that kind of focus, I think we're much more likely to create a safe and mutually respectful situation where students want to concentrate on learning instead of feeling like they are being forced to comply. Compliance does not equal engagement," Mr. Ferlazzo explained.

My history teacher would spend half the class making jokes directed at the students. One student in particular always took the jokes on the chin and never really made any comebacks.
Eventually, the teacher called him out and jokingly lectured him about standing up for himself. He ended his rant with "You've gotta be a man. You've gotta be like me."
The student replied with: "Well which one? Do you want me to be a man or do you want me to be like you?"

Had my class of working class kids at an art gallery. As we waited for our tour to begin we played on the small playground near the door. A prep school kid in a uniform approached two of my boys and said, 'I bet I'm smarter than you are!' I watched to make sure no blood was drawn - my students can hold their own pretty much anywhere and they don't accept insults casually.
But they were cool. 'No you're not. Are you in Grade 2?' The boy said he was and one of my boys said, So Then we're all grade 2. So we are all grade 2 smart.' He went back to climbing the monkey bars.
But the prep school kid continued. 'I know I'm smarter. Let's do some math and I'll prove it.'
The toughest kid in my room looked this guy square in the eye and said, 'Well, I'm smart enough not to do math when I'm having fun on a playground.'

Before they respond to disrespectful student comments, Mr. Ferlazzo said teachers need to reflect on a number of issues, including:
- Is the comment truly disrespectful, or am I letting my privilege and lack of knowledge make me feel defensive, or am I demonstrating a lack of a sense of humor?
- Are student comments reflecting a lack of respect that I am showing my students, and are they just reflecting back on the way I treat them?
- Is this student generally respectful and, if he/she is, what might be going on for them that is making them have a bad day?

A kid in my math class would sleep on his desk. One day the teacher called on him to answer a problem on the chalk board. He woke up, solved the problem on the board with zero difficulty, and then just went back to sleep.
The teacher repeated the same thing a few times with similar results, and then just let him sleep the rest of the year.

Some students do it. Others doodle or draw while listening. For most of them it's easier to concentrate. A teacher knows when they are and when they aren't paying attention. And a good teacher lets them close their eyes or draw if they are listening and participating.

I witnessed a rather sad one.
In my chemistry class sophomore year one of my friends was going through some family issues, and his dad just left for a year or so. The kid was acting up in class and the teacher was like "Do you want me to call your dad?" and he was like "If he picks up tell him to come home soon."

I try really hard to know my (elementary) kids adult figures but I slip up or I speak generally and they are very quick to let me know.

It could be your neighbor Joe or for Father's Day you bring aunt Sue.
Assuming the teacher has a good relationship with the student (which, in most cases, teachers should have worked very hard at achieving), Mr. Ferlazzo said they could:
- Go to the student and whisper a request for them to go outside so the two can have a conversation ("I didn't feel respected when ____ was said" and/or "Are you okay?" and/or "It sounds like you are upset. Can you tell me what's going on?"
- Ignore it and proceed with the lesson, and find the student later in the day (perhaps during the teacher's free period) to have a similar conversation.
"It's important to not get into a power struggle with the student because a teacher will never win one," Mr. Ferlazzo explained. "It may feel like a victory, but it will only be temporary."

For context this was at a Catholic school, and the teacher (a very stern fire and brimstone nun) and the student (an extremely liberal anglican) had been at each others nerves all year. After correcting the teacher on something she had gotten wrong, the nun said something along the lines of "I hope you learn to enjoy the heat because it's going to be very hot when you end up in the deepest level of hell."
And entirely unruffled, without a moment's hesitation she responded "Actually, according to Dante's inferno the deepest level of hell is made of ice, but don't worry I'll bring a jacket."

I've taught preschool for years, and one of my favorite "dad" responses to children who are being whiny just to whine is the "Hi, _____. I'm your teacher!" (Eg- "I'm thirsty." "Hi, Thirsty. I'm your teacher!"). Anyway, one day, after a long week, I sat down to lunch with my class (preschool, remember? 4-5 year olds), and say to a child (we'll call him Tommy), "Boy, Tommy. I'm really tired today." Without skipping a beat, he swallows his Mac-n-cheese, looks me right in the eyes and says, "Hi, Really Tired. I'm Tommy." That was the day I knew I had taught him all I could.

Well done. You've gone and made an assumption about the impact of a dad joke on a class of students all raised by different parents with different value systems.
Load More Replies..."It is never okay for teachers to make [cheeky] comments," Mr. Ferlazzo said. "Does that mean we never make them? Of course not. If we make them, a public apology is always required. We have to model the importance of righting a wrong."
"I think it might be worth teachers developing flexibility about what student comments they consider disrespectful, and what could, instead, be insightful, humorous, or just a failed attempt at humor because of a lack of student maturity. Then, it's not a matter of letting remarks 'slide.' Rather, it can demonstrate to students that you don't see the world just with a clear-cut vision - that ambiguity is okay."
Mr. Ferlazzo believes that even with all these ideas on how to "de-escalate," however, there may be times when a comment is genuinely disrespectful, and "that it could be the first sign of a situation that could get dangerously out of control. In those situations, a call to the office for a campus monitor to remove the student from your classroom may be the least bad option." However, if teachers do that, they have polarized' the situation — once you polarize a situation, it's essential that you de-polarize it, perhaps by a conversation the next morning before class.
"By far, the best way to reduce the chances of disrespectful comments from students is to build relationships so that students know and feel like the teacher truly cares about them as people, is interested in their hopes and dreams, and wants to help students achieve them," Mr. Ferlazzo concluded.

Does it count if it was me?
Gr. 12 religion teacher at a Catholic school tried to tell every one that ejaculating inside a woman will get her pregnant 100% of the time.
My hand shot right up to counter the bulls**t of that statement that he was trying to pass on as fact. I believe I quoted studies putting the percentage in the low single digits, and pointed out how many couples have to go through great lengths in order to conceive.
Mr. Bullsh**er counters back with "Well you see, OiMcCoy, In my personal experience..."
Thanks to him never shutting up about his family and home life and the bizarre rules about teachers strictly adhering to Catholic dogma when it comes to sex, I knew I had him on the ropes.

As a Catholic school teacher I can say it's hard teaching this. We want to tell kids the truth about how all this works, but it has to follow the local Diocese ruling or else we could get fired. If the the local Diocese is on the liberal side, the board of ed will let you teach a lot of it, so long as you don't teach about birth control. But if your local Diocese is more conservative, you have to jump through a lot of hoops and paperwork to be allowed to talk about sex ed at all, without it leading to a write up or dismissal. I like my job but it can be incredibly frustrating at times.

Kid has his head down at the back of science class everyday. Never does any work, but we all know he's quite smart. Teacher calls him out for it one day and says "Why do you sleep so much at the back of the class? Do you think you're smarter than everyone? Do you think you know everything in the book?
He raises his head wearily and says, "i've done all the work at home just leave me alone"
"ALL OF IT!? REALLY!?"
"Yes."
"If you can answer a few questions on the book you can sleep for the rest of the term!"
"OK"
"If you can't then you'll sit right at the front and not put your head down once."
"OK"
He then began to answer every question the teacher could throw at him, she even pulled up stuff we werent ever going to study in the back of the book and he just answered every question flawlessly... by the end of this 3 minute exchange he asked "We done?"
The teacher, was speechless, so he said "thanks" and put his head down again.
It was sick.

My family moved a lot while growing up and every time I went to a new school, my grade was the one who had American History. 5th grade was Geography, 6th was American History, and 7th grade was World History. I took American History 7 years in a row with 3 times using the same text book. The last time was Junior year with that same text book. I frustrated the teacher because I'd never pay attention but knew the answers. One day, he said if I didn't get better than 90% on the test the next day, he'd get me suspended. He also happened to be lazy and used the same tests from the back of the book. Next day I brought the same test from the previous year that I had got 100% on and gave it to him before he passed the test out. He took me to the principal's office and said I was cheating. I told my side of the story. The principal's solution was to transfer me to take World History with the sophomores instead. That decision ended my hatred of history.

MY FRIEND, BRIAN was in his home-room class back in high school. The topic of abortion came up as everyone was asking each other if/why they're either against, or pro-abortion. We're in Texas so you can assume the ideas and opinions of the majority of the class.
So my friend is a very intelligent and quiet fellow. Minding his own business in a corner of the room. The class turns to him to get his opinion on the matter.
Someone- "Brian, you've been quiet over there. So what about you? Are you Pro-Abortion?"
Brian- "Well, I wouldn't say I'm pro... but I'm pretty good with a coat hanger."
Jaws drop, the room is silent as everyone is registering what just happened.

"Marc, do you have a number?"

It's really so different in the schools I experienced. Until a certain age, the class stays together as a unit and for the "standard subjects" (like Math and Languages) that don't require a special setup or a lab, the teachers go to the different classrooms and the kids stay put. So if one teacher is working later, the next teacher will encounter them in the room and ask why they're there. And if the kids do have to change rooms (like for Chemistry), the whole class would be late and nobody could get mad at that. We also don't need hall-passes for going to the toilet during class. If you gotta go, you ask if you may and then they send you on your way. I really don't understand the whole punishment-and-restraint-system that comes across from the stories out of the US. (TV, movies, internet...) It's very weird to me

I don't know why everybody thinks it's cool to disrespect their teachers/elders/bosses just because the people in charge are being a mild pain in the a**e . Like, you shouldn't disrespect your teacher just on principal. You're only in charge of how you conduct yourself, you're not in charge of how others act. Respect is not a bad thing to have. Being able to be annoyed at somebody and still show respect is a good thing. If we all just act like a-holes ... well, people would be just like they are on social media. Constantly fighting , constantly complaining ... it's not a good look

Some professors are as thoughtless as they are arrogant; they seem to have forgotten their own student days. At our college, the classes were 50 minutes in length with 10 minutes between sessions. One new professor became notorious for keeping the students an extra 5-7 minutes past the 50 minute mark. He would have fits if students left sooner. One day he called out a student, much like this guy, saying "I'm not finished with the lecture. Sit down." The student replied, "I have another class in less than 5 minutes. If I stay, I will be late. I will also make sure that professor knows that you are the cause."

But sometimes the teachers can make you late to your next class because they keep you past the allotted time they have you.

I'll never understand why the first reaction of so many teachers is to embarrass these types of students. They have absolutely no clue what their home lives may be like. There may be a reason the students are sleeping in class or acting out or whatever. I wish teachers could have some more empathy of their students even if they may not appear to be as "ideal". Just a side note: I know teachers, especially in the US, are completely undervalued, underpaid, and over worked.

Sometimes the best way to stop the behavior is to tell the student you will be contacting their parents later that day.

Back when I taught first grade, we were doing a writing assignment about Thanksgiving. The kids had to draw a picture of their family celebrating Thanksgiving, and then write about it. One little girl drew the table and chairs, and that was all. I knew she just didn't feel like doing the work, so I tried to prompt her. I asked where the food and her family were, and she snapped right back with, "They're washing the dishes." Had to give her credit for coming up with a logical argument for not doing the work!

This is great because it's both smart-ass and a (potentially) legitimate answer. If there's a time limit on the test, it can be a good strategy to skip the hardest questions and come back to them at the end (if the format of the test allows you to go back, of course); that way, if you run out of time, you haven't missed any easy questions.

Anyway, about halfway through the year enters Eddy, now eddy's mom moved from our little backwoods town years ago to pursue modeling in Spain. And has now returned with her son who was born and raised in Spain. People loved eddy, very bright, funny and had a very open/European personality. Of course eddy knew spanish, better than his English (which was atrocious and he kinda sounded like Arnold Schwarzenegger after a stroke). But I assume spanish class is pretty equivalent to English class...no-one talks like this and written/spoken English are two different beasts. After a test which he bombed he got in an argument over the Mic which was a classic "it's said like this" and "no, no the proper way is this" after a few minutes you could tell he had had it, he pushed the button on Mic to speak and literally said "Botch look.....I'm from f**ing Spain" and left the entire student population and her slack jawed and speechless

Some kid was skipping class and walked in after going to two lunches, and gave me some bulls**t excuse. So I start looking all around me, at my sleeves and chest and stuff. Student: "What are you doing?" Me: "Looking for the sign that says I'm an idiot" Student(without missing a beat) : "Oh, it's on your back, so you can't see it"

This is more "well-timed" than "smart-ass", but once in middle school this kid next to me was looking and acting like he was sick, and asked to be excused from class. The teacher asked "Why?" The kid was about to respond, but then immediately threw up all over his desk and onto the floor. After a bit of coughing, he looked up and muttered, "That's why."

I was the kid, and I was dead serious. 6th grade, teacher asked us for another word for a lawyer that starts with "A". Parroting back something my parents used at home, and without missing a beat, I blurted out "AMBULANCE CHASER!!!" I don't remember if the teacher or my mother laughed harder.

This was while working with 9 year olds. We're doing number problems and a kid is having trouble with a sum. The sum is "You have 40 sweets. You give half your sweets to your friend. How many sweets do you have now". I grab 40 counters, and say to the kid "Here are 40 sweets. If you give me half, how many will you have left?". Kid turns to me, and utterly deadpan says " I can't give you the sweets. You aren't my friend"

Not a teacher, but I had a real "see you next tuesday" of a chemistry teacher. I was only a few steps away from the classroom entrance when the bell rang. She asked why I was late. Told her the bell rang before I got here. Since then, I never received above a C on any of my work. Even in group labs, I personally would receive a letter grade lower than my lab mates.

I live in a latin american country, so the name Jesús is really common So one day while in music class a mate from another class comes to give some kind of announcement. None of us are paying attention while he is trying to talk, so the teacher angrily shouts "Everyone listen to Jesus!!" to which a friend replied "Listen to his word, Hallelujah!"
Final score:

But sometimes the absolute truth is such that the difference seems slim. I was in second or third grade when a staff member, maybe a teacher, stopped me to talk to me. She wasn't much taller than I was at 7 or 8 years old, but her breath was sickening and I was too polite to say anything about it.

When I was in school in England ( the school I was in after whit that horrible Headmistress was here in Ireland and after this ) we had a music teacher who was Greek. He ate a lot of food that must have had a LOT of garlic in it as his breath always smelt of garlic. No exaggeration, we could smell it across the classroom. A boy in my class once said to him "look on the bright side sir, with breath like yours, you'll never have to worry about vampires!"

Spanish class in high school. Two guys who grew up in Spanish-speaking families were goofing off at the back of class. One guy says that he could stand the weight of another person standing on his stomach, and the other guy who was probably just shy of 200 pounds doesn't believe him. So the first guy gets on the ground in the back of class, and the other guy gets up and stands on his stomach. The teacher sees this, and immediately yelled at the guy on the ground to get back into his seat. Without missing a beat, he says "I can't, he's standing on me!" The other guy doesn't move because he wasn't yelled at. Meanwhile the teacher continues to be upset that the guy on the ground isn't listening to her.

This happened to my best friend in his French high school physics class. One day the teacher was in a grouchy mood, and couldn't get the control of his class room (people talking, laughing, generally not paying attention). He was never good at controlling his class, but I guess this day he'd had enough. He goes off on a rant yelling and screaming about how he deserves respect, and how they need to listen. Mind you all of this is in french. He then goes to say that they should be polite because he is being polite. Now Polite in french is "Polie" (pronounced Po-lee). So the teacher in his raging rant says: "MOI, JE SUIS POLIE", translating to "ME, I AM POLITE". At this point the class goes silent for a moment, after my friend blurts out in english: "How ya doin Paulie". At that point the tension was broken amongst the student, and laughter filled the room. The teacher wasn't impressed.

Work in mental health. One day a kid had to do therapy work as a consequence for whatever it was he did the day before. So i asked him to draw me a picture of how he felt today. He heads out into the hallway. Returns a few minutes later with a drawing of what looks like a bunch of tubes lying together. When I questioned him about it, his response was, "s**t. I feel like s**t today". Shrugged his shoulders and slugged his way back into the hall. Couldn't even be mad. I still have that drawing and this was years ago.

This is a story about me. Back in the day, we were discussing in class what our term papers were going to be on. We go around the classroom saying our subject. It falls on me. Me: "Space exploration" Teacher: "... Well space is very big..." Me: "That's accurate." There were lots of laughs and I still feel bad about this occurrence today. I cringe at the thought of it and don't know if my teacher took it jokingly or if I seemed like a huge douchebag. Ms. McPhillips, if you're reading this, I meant it jokingly!

In grade 8 we were learning some kinda tough math and the teacher wanted to challenge us and give us something just out of our skill range. Only problem was he needed to give us a mini lesson so we would be pointed in the right direction and do it ourself. It was close to the end of the day so we're all acting up and being loud as the teacher says "if you don't pay attention you won't be able to do this question!" "Sure you can" shouts one of the genius kids. "Then come up here and do it" planning on having the genius embarrass himself with this clearly advanced math for a 13 year old. He hops up, grabs the chalk, starts workong on the problem narrating every step, drop the chalk and says "then just solve it normally" the teacher was stunned, likely because it was the right answer. I have always wondered if this was some kind of fluke or is Lucas really was that smart.

Not a teacher but in my high school chemistry class one of my classmates was quietly working on an assignment with headphones despite the school policy against it. He wasn't bothering anyone but since the teacher was a hard ass he approached the student. Teacher : "Give me your iPod." Classmate: "Give me your wallet."
Chucky Cheezburger 4 years ago
If its against school policy have headphones on,fine, ask the student to take them off. But I feel the student had the right idea. I'll be damned if Im going to hand over my (Im guessing that at the time this happened) expensive electronics to someone without some way to ensure its return. Teacher may want a nice new Ipod, and guess where he found one. Teachers are human, and will steal jist like anyone else. On a side note, what happens if someone steals it from the teacher? Are they going to be responsible for something that was in their care? If someone steals it from the student thats the risk they take leaving the house with it.

Not a teacher but the answer is relevant. When I was in 7th grade I went to a private school. I had a friend who was a smartass and always gave fast witty responses to things. Our school was holding a bazaar to raise money for something before Christmas. When they do that a lot of church members would come in to cook all differnt kinds of food. The teacher told us one day "We're going to be eating bazaar lunches today." My friend said " You mean we're eating the schools lunches?" In 7th grade that was a dynamite response. He might have got in a little bit of trouble but he was king of the room for the day.
