I'm not talking about advice, I'm talking about things like my maths teacher telling me that my method was wrong and the fact I got the right answer was a fluke, and then having to apologise when she realised that it worked every time.
I know a kid who gets asked what the answers to questions are when the teacher doesn't want to look it up because he's right a good 98% of the time, with perfectly neat, correctly arranged, "one time without anything crossed out" working.
No social life though.

No. My maths teacher is a hell beast who is ALWAYS right. She is the strictest and most malevolent b*tch ever to live. I hate her!

Nah, Maths teachers are actually welcome to advice from students. There's a bloke in my class who's the son of the head of Maths, and not surprisingly, he's good at maths, so good infact that the teachers actually come to him for help when they're unsure about stuff.
That's always good, it hurts their professional pride as much as proving a maths teacher wrong.
Heh. Also, using Sesquipedalian words (Good example of one :D) that they haven't heard of irritates them too.

"No, I think it suggests that the writer is trying to further his artistic integrity by being unnecessarily obtuse and can't rely on his writing style to convey the mood of the situation."
Replies like that always irritate them. The "I think" is required as if they object they're clearly being thought-police and hence shall be labeled "Fascist" for the rest of the day.

I did 'To Kill A Mocking Bird', a book based in the deeeeeep souuuthhh in the 30's. It is all about inbreeding, racism, hicks and corruption in the law.
Just like Bristol then.

Indeed. We're going through it for the third time in a year.
"Now, the fish rising to the surface, what does this suggest?"
"It's hungry?"
"No, it suggests that something ominous is coming."
English teachers pride themselves over that kinda stuff.
