What's the funniest test answer you've ever given or seen someone else give?

[chrisgorman]

You missed the "I am a Rebel" joke - the question asked for 3 words, and they rebelled by writing 4.

Once took a history test that asked what was a strategy the Soviets used to win WW2. I somehow blanked and forgot the term scorched earth so instead I wrote “we have more men than you have bullets”. Teacher gave me half credit for that

I took a music theory class in high school and one our assignments involved us picking a song that held meaning to us (that was the gist as I remember). The song I picked was AC/DC's I Got Big Balls. The song was a dig at the music studios' heavy censorship policies at the time, but it was written in a way that could be interpreted as crass as well as literally. Everyone laughed and the teacher couldn't turn off the cassette player fast enough, but they never let me finish the assignment. I picked the song to demonstrate how what you mean isn't necessarily going to be what they hear, and that to really appreciate the song you had to consider every perspective.

11:22 You're right. Thanos is actually a better answer than The Hunger Games, although the kid's answer makes just as much sense.

I remember when my 12th grade English teacher gave us an assignment to write our own Declaration of Independence (we were doing American Literature), which was basically just an assignment to confess your unpopular opinion, and I wrote an essay about why I think Woodrow Wilson is the worst president. I wish I could find it so bad.

He's already seen these many of these answers before in previous videos. But its great to see him react and laugh again

Pro tip for when you don't know the answer on a test, but you really did study: On the test apologize for not knowing the answer, but tell the teacher information you DO know that the they didn't ask for. In my experience the teacher will usually give you partial if not full credit.

So if u call someone a "dumptruck, " that is not very flattering. However, if you say someone HAS a "dumptruck, " that is a complement

The "80-100 words" reminds me of, "say 'good night', gracie!"
"Good night, gracie!"

Lol!

[YoixPatrick]

the one about excuse me is that during a festival you get drunker and drunker and that changes the way you say excuse me :P

Lefty here, I am definitely way more ambidextrous than my right handed peers. I even do different tasks and activities right handed, which I've noticed is quite common between left handed people.

When I was in First Grade, we were supposed to take this cut out paper skeleton, pose it doing something, and then write a sentence saying what the skeleton was doing.
I lost one of the arms because I was very disorganized. So I posed the skeleton and wrote “My skeleton lost his arm.” My teacher was not happy for my irresponsibility, but the principal said it was technically correct and showed creative thinking in lieu of my mistake. Gave my principal (and my mom) a ton of respect that day.

When I was in high school I took geometry and when it said find the x I would circle the x

The real question isnt "are you kids being taught to read analog clocks?" But rather "how often are you faced with a problem that ONLY HAS AN ANALOG CLOCK?"
Its kind of like "you wont have a calculator on you at all times".

7:06 🤣🤣🤣🤣This person got ripped OFF!! $32 for asparagus? Outrageous!
13:30 Ambidextrous here, and no; in my case, I have certain handedness with different things. I wield a sword right-handed, parry left handed, opposite with a bow and arrow (drawstring and arrow in left hand-bow in right hand), I can do calligraphy/inscribing with either hand but am far more adept left-handed. In the alchemy lab, I am switch-handed when it comes to various tasks, except for reading; that requires my right hand. Fun time with self? Oh, that's a two-handed thing. I play bass/stringed instruments right-handed. I'm switch-handed when it comes to applying makeup, but I'm pretty sure that's a thing everyone does, as that's just a *_muscle memory_* skill, but when I do other people's makeup, I use my right hand.
15:00 Reminds me, I used to have two pairs of boots that I loved. Both were stolen from me.
16:10 Yes, more, more, more. ♫With a Rebel Yell, more, more more!!!♫ 🤣🤣Couldn't resist, not sorry!!
...
I never really did anything like this, it's funny to see though. I was homeschooled, and then went to a specialization academy that focuses on learning by doing rather than lectures and assignment ledgers. So, basically, I kinda missed out, but not too much, because some of that culture did seep in, just, not in the best way.

I remember when I was in 1st grade, we were all doing some sort of exam. We were told to write our names where it says name. So, my teacher wrote her name on the test as an example, I was so dead confused, so I copied her name on the exam, after the exams were turned in and we got our exams back. I checked my exam, and my teacher's name that I wrote in pencil has been crossed out with a pen, and it has my name written in pen.

When I was in school, they taught analog with clocks but from what I've read, schools are phasing out analog clocks and not teaching analog reading along with cursive.

It's tough when everything is digital and current generations of teachers weren't taught analog or cursive.


As for answering on tests or homework, left them blank as I did not have a great study habits

5:50 A little background first I'm German. Religious education is mandatory in my country, and our grading system goes from 1 (best) to 6 (worst).
There was this test in religion dealing with some obscure philosophical question, and I had no idea where to even start. So to not hand in an empty sheet, I wrote down a Shakespeare sonnet.
Teacher gave me a "5" instead of a "6"... commenting that he couldn't tell if I might have said something relevant, because he didn't speak English.

The kid that wrote tell her she’s pretty even if she looks like a dump truck is a goddamn legend! He found the secret of marriage waaay before most men lmfao 😂😂
