Noun. A universal paradigm of adolescent education. The Lynchian teacher is very strong in his or her opinions and expects students to agree with him or her. If in a classroom setting, grades are usually based on subjectively-graded papers. Papers are reflective of (1) how much the subject material agrees with the teacher's personal views, and (2) the worth of the student in the teacher's eyes. Usually, this results in students getting a single grade on every paper regardless of content.
No curves are instituted in a Lynchian classroom. 100% is restricted to the student the instructor feels "deserves" it the most. Despite these flaws, Lynchian educators are usually looked up to by fellow academics as models of "awesomeness" or "tradition."

Occurs during or after watching one of the works of Filmmaker David Lynch, when the astutley observed, nightmarish portrayal of the true nature of the human condition causes such a level of identification with the protagonist(s), that one suffers their fate and (either momentarily or on a prolonged, recurrent basis) begins to question the reality of his or her surroundings, relationships, actions and the time-space continuum itself.
