well, it's not too bad when you consider the average sportsteacher. poor guys... they are plagued by colleagues who are all two bamboo-sticks short of a nunchaku.

You know, theres a sad thing that happens at many schools... P.E. teachers without a full class load end up teaching science classes. I had one 'science' teacher who's main responsibility was to teach young girls to wave flags and spin fake rifles, aka the 'Drill Team'. She accually took me out of class one day because I was correcting her too often!!! smiley - yikes She understood very little of what she was teaching. Optics and electricity were foreign to her, unfortunately she didn't realise it.
She literally didn't know what side of the mirror her reflection was on.



(BTW that's more complicated than you may think).

Northern Boy (lost somewhere in the great rhubarb triangle) <master of Freudian typos> Man or Badger?

Yeah that happened at my school as well although they restricted the p.e. teachers to biology, quite a sight seeing someone who look like a russian womens shotputter screaming at a class full of people about the water cycle or whatever. smiley - yikes

Maths Wizard, currently seething with rage.

I once told my friend that he was "as funny as an empty can of paint".

Another friend said, "What's so funny about an empty can of paint?"

"Nothing," I replied. "That's the whole idea."

You can adapt that however you like.

Jokes too?

He was stopped for driving at high speed in the middle of the road.

He explained: "When I got my driving licence form it said 'tear along the dotted line'."

Has anyone get any more insults on any topic? Here are some I found on the net:

To a nature lover: How can you love nature when it did THAT to you?

He's dark and handsome. When it's dark, he's handsome.

I'm sorry you're ugly, but I'm sorrier because I have to look at you.

He's better at sex than anyone. Now all he needs is a partner.

When reviewing a book Dr Johnson (I think, someone will correct me if not) wrote:
"This book has some good and original parts."
"Unfortunately the parts which are good are not original and the parts which are original are not good."
