The Tampered With Scantron


Teahcer: "You weren't here so yours is messed up."

Student: "Can you fix it?"

Teahcer: "No."

Teacher: "Since I have nothing better to do though, we'll read the rest."

Teacher: "Treat my class with respect."

Various phrases thrown about during first semester,

Various people roll their eyes.

Many students have the right answer,

But are considered wrong because it's not yours.

You say you are giving up on our class,

We obviously tampered with the scantrons.

You throw your glasses on the desk and give up.

You are a lousy teacher sir/
