There was this one fat science teacher dude in elemantry school who used to get tater tots and shove them in one of his cheeks like a giant squirrel.
Also, not a teacher, but the vice principal once told me I need to think before I do things. As an example he said sometimes he gets so mad he wants to throw a chair through his office window. I immediately thought of how much cooler he would have been if he randomly threw a chair through his window rather than lecturing me.

My friends and I always showed up to School about 2-3 hours early and just hung out BSing and such.
Eventually the Principal decided he's start letting us in at that time and letting us sing in the hallway.
One Teacher HATED the idea. He was convinced we were going to destroy the School. One day, I have no idea to this day why, he walked past us, said something (can't remember what), a friend said something (once more can't remember what exactly, but something along the lines of "sorry") The Teacher turned with a weird look on his face, grabbed my Friend by the hair and just started screaming about how we're going to ruin the School (by being there?). He started to haul my friend towards the stairs, with the intention of heading to the principals office. My friend shrugged out his grasp and the guy went into getting ready to punch stance.
Right then the Principal showed up. He heard most of it (as he was just down the stairs) took the teacher to his office and proceeded to yell at him until School started.
Which we could all hear. He got ripped a new one.
He was fired at the end of the year (un-related mostly as he had a few other little dust ups)

I went to a Special ed school. I was having a really awful day at one point and the principal and the Crisis intervention teacher pretty much dragged me backwards down the hall. When I tried to escape out the window, the Crisis guy basically ENCOURAGED it.
In college, my music theory teacher was kind of an oddball. I remember reading the shcool newspaper about an staffer exposing himself to a student in the bathroom and it seemed to fit his appearance.

I had a Biology teacher who would randomly tell stories and jokes during his class. This led you to get completely sidetracked and lose focus. Most people got Cs in his class, but somehow got away with teaching with no problems.

I had some interesting Teachers back in the day. One that use to pick her nose (Worse thing is she was a Food Technology teacher) We had one teacher who was clearly not fit to teach, could barely walk, constantly choking, Nearly had a heart attack in front of us once, very heavy Smoker, You could be in the opposite side of the room and you could smell the fags coming from his breath. As harsh as it sounds I would not be in the least bit surprised to hear that his dead now, He looked like he was knocking on deaths door back when I was there and that was a good 13-17 Years ago. Concerning thing is, A Geography teacher I got on well with back at school, I found out got arrested this year, turns out he was a paedophile, Think I might have dodged a bullet there

Hmm... I had an art teacher whose morning breakfast was a two-liter bottle of Mountain Dew Code Red and a box of Ho-Hos.
In the fourth grade, my teacher injured herself by getting her foot caught between the bus and the sidewalk... a two-inch gap, mind you.
There was also a substitute in my senior year who sat in the corner and often pouted. I made a comment that, due to her choice of dress, she looked like Miss Piggy. I got sent to the dean's office... and then got kicked OUT of said office because the dean didn't want anything to do with me.
Later, though, I did come down with a serious case of Foot-in-Mouth Disease by saying that while he could outstand us, we would outlive him.
I'm a unique character.

I've had some weird ones. We had one science teacher who couldn't say his "R"'s, and whenever people started messing about, he's sit down at his desk, clench his fists, then slam them on the desk and go "I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS!" By the end of the year, we became so good at spotting it that we'd do it in synchronise with him. Which made him even angrier.
Then there was one substitute who'd literally scream at students, and used to throw chairs into the backroom when he was mad. He ended up at another school and apparently threw a chair at a student, which I'm inclined to believe, as we never saw him again.
Finally, there was one in my final year of High School whom I had for English, he looked like a toad and used to fall asleep whilst dictating from textbooks for us. He did it one time, and we all managed to quietly get out of our seats bar and hide in the stock cupboard, bar one lad who decided to stay behind.
He then proceeded to wake up after five minutes and keep dictating to the one fella left, then looked up from the book, realised we were all gone and went to go get the head of the department. So we all sat back down, and when she came in, she got pissed off and had words with him outside about falling asleep again. Was bloody hilarious.

I had one teacher who was retiring at the end of the year so he have zero shits about what was going on. He would just leave in the middle of class and not come back. He looked an older Mario

My chemistry teacher in college had to be put under a medical suspension because he kept trying to come in to teach while suffering from swine flu. He once had a root canal and came in to teach despite not being to talk, he just had to write everything down. He freaking loved chemistry.

There's this one weird teacher that uses his lunch and prep to read comic books and watch TV on his iPad all alone in his classroom. Oh wait...that's me.

My 2nd grade teacher told us (with a smile on her face, like the whole thing was a big funny joke that everyone was in on), "We call them (the n word) and they call us honkies."

I had a Principal in High School tell my whole 8th Grade class we were the worst year that had ever been at Oxley High.
He was a miserable prick.

Ok, to avoid any real names I'm going to refer to this teacher as Larry.
Well Larry taught pre-calculus at my high school.
Larry did this by making up problems in his head and writing them on the board... fair enough so far... however...
He'd put the problem on the board... look at it... then quickly scribble some stuff on top of it declared it was the right answer then erased it... never explaining what the hell he did to come up with the answer to the question.
THE WORST part was... when he'd write a problem then halfway through realize that it wouldn't come out the way he'd want it to... teh way he fixed this? He'd erase a number and change it to something else that worked.
He did not explain why the original problem didn't work... if asked he'd just say that it didn't work.
Now... I knew about Larry before getting his class because my brother had him at a different school that was in the same system... the next year the school sent Larry to the high school I went to... where my sister also had him.
Yes... all three of us had to be taught by Larry.
It gets even better...
When my brother had him... in the middle of class... he stood up went to the class room door... and said... I'll be right back... I'm in charge of the bells... and walked away.
He did not come back and I mean at all... literally no one was in the classroom the next day. No one knows where the hell he went... two days after walking out a new teacher was in charge...
SO... flash forward a few years to my sister having him... for the beginning of the first semester went as well as could be imagined a teacher who doesn't teach could go...
when one day my sister's class walks in and... Larry announced that he couldn't talk by a piece of paper or something... and started doing his "teaching" on the overhead projector... in complete silence.
that went on for a while... until he completely dropped that... and everything went back to normal... until the middle of the second semester... when in the middle of class he said "I'll be right back... I have to let the post man in." and you guessed it... left the class room.
the next day... my sister and company went into his room... and once again NO ONE WAS THERE... this ended when a teacher heard the ruckus of an unsupervised class of high school class... and again miraculously the next day they had a new teacher.
Also miraculously both times he walked out the entire class apparently got A's... despite failing all the tests.
I was lucky I guess and he didn't walk out he did his unique teaching method described above.
Oh my brother also reminded me he was also his freshman homeroom teacher... who didn't show up after 2 weeks....

My 2nd grade teacher waited until the school year was over, to tell my mom she thought I was having petty mal seizures in class all year. My mom was very angry about that.
In 6th grade, I went to the middle school across town, and we had just gotten back from a field trip. I asked to use a phone to call my mom to pick me up, and the vice principal told me I had to walk home. I walked with a friend back to her house and called my mom to tell her what happened. I started crying, because I thought I did the wrong thing, but she and my dad wanted the v.p. to know he should not have done that, since I would have to cross busy main roads if I did the dumb thing, and listened to him. My dad ended up talking to him, and told him if he heard that any kid was told to walk home, he would be back lol.
Also, in 6th grade, I fell down the stairs and landed on my elbow. (The injury still nags today) I went to the nurses office, crying from the pain and thinking my arm was broken, and she had to leave the office because apparently I was putting on a comedy act. She told me she wasn't expecting to laugh as much as she did at me.

This is great timing. While I never took this guy's class, a really popular English teacher at my old high school just got busted for apparent pedophilia. Some people you might suspect, but this one floored everyone. A few mostly lighter stories now: There was one substitute teacher at my high school who was basically out of "Crazy Substitute Stereotypes for Dummies." He was an older man who would do push-up exhibitions, dance, count to ten in Japanese, all kinds of demonstrations to keep students engaged. It's too bad I forgot his name a long time ago. Another high school substitute gave me the creeps, at least initially. At the first sign of noise -- any noise whatsoever -- this guy would squash it like a bug. My brother and I nicknamed him "Pin Drop," because even that would have sent him into a tizzy. It was ironic, because it turned out the guy played in a band when he wasn't in the classroom. Pin Drop also worked in loss prevention at Best Buy, and one time he caught a student trying to steal some items. Some time later, that kid was in a class the guy was subbing for. He took the opportunity to teach a "lesson" about the evils of stealing. According to the story, that student/thief sank in his chair and hid the whole time. Way back in fourth grade (1997-98), I had a teacher who was really into baseball, as I was. Sometimes we would talk baseball right in the middle of class. He was also quite the classroom comedian. He could buckle down and get serious when he needed to, but we had a lot of fun in his class. In 11th grade, I had an astronomy teacher who loved to tell the story of a dolphin landing on her head at a water park. As you might imagine, her class was the most fun that I had that year. But in all of my years, no teacher could have topped my best friend's eighth grade science teacher. I'll call him "Mr. P." He would say some of the most random things you ever could think of. He once asked a student, right in the middle of class, if he had Time Warner cable. He randomly asked another if his boombox played CDs. One time, a kid messed with Mr. P by asking him if he had seen the Buccaneers-Yankees game. (For those who are unaware, those teams play different sports.) Mr. P said "Yes, the charity softball game..." and just made up the details as he went along. Another kid decided to put two random words together and ask him what they meant. Mr. P, without missing a beat, said "It's a Chinese fish." Almost anything this guy said made about as much sense as any of this stuff. And, of course, there were a lot of oddities in college. The guy who was boring and painfully monotone in class, but hosted all-night raves on the side, probably tops the list.

I had this science teacher who didn't understand basic science. She got things like Acid and Alkali muddled. One time she was teaching us about electricity on a class trip and kept insisting that birds couldn't land on powerlines. I got into an argument with her by saying that they could. She actually demoted me from the "top" science class to the bottom one after that. We also had this horrible old hag of a substitute. She smoked like a chimney and swore like a sailor. This is no exaggeration but the front of her bushy gray hair was actually STAINED with nicotine. That's how bad it was. She was fond of going into rants about how we're "wastes of space" and will "amount to nothing" and are "going to spend your whole lives scrubbing toilets in McDonalds". Finally, at my current school there was a teacher who ALWAYS managed to make kids in the class cry. It seemed every couple of days I'd walk into my class ready to teach and see one of the kids snivelling and been comforted and it was always because of the same teacher doing something. They're only young too, aged between 7-9. I heard the way she talked to the kids and it was no wonder she upset them. She was so... snappish, rude and ignorant. She got fired, thankfully. She was the deputy-head of the school as well as teaching and was like an Asian Hitler with the daft rules she bought in for the teaching staff. Most of which were pointless. For example, after each class I had 2 students who used to like helping me mark work. They'd just sit next to me with my red pen and I'd tell them whether to tick or cross the work and how to correct it. Harmless, they always enjoyed doing it and although it made the marking take triple the time it usually did I didn't mind because they were nice kids and it made them happy to help. She bought in the rule that they couldn't do that anymore in case it made the other kids "jealous". Despite the fact the other kids just wanted to leave class and play rather than sit around marking textbooks. Another one she had was that one of the kids in my class, always used to bring in a small stuffed penguin she sat next to her in class and, like kids do, treated it like it was alive, wrapping it up in her coat hood to sleep if it got tired, sitting it near her paper to "help with her work" and doing a squeaky voice for it to answer questions in class etc. It was cute and harmless, just a little kid being a kid. The teacher decided to make a rule that she couldn't bring it into class anymore. It just seemed like pointlessly being mean.

I remember her mentioning John Christ from Danzig, and Dave Sabo I dont remember other names to mentioned, she was alright looking..told a very very graphic story to us about her having "fun" at the troubadour and having to use the tiny bar napkins to clean her face...ill just leave it at that.
