teachable moment

What you say when you intend to cover for your own mistake by implying the person you wronged is also culpable but should join with you to "move past" your wrong. It allows you to avoid actually apologizing.
Once Obama read the police report and realized his comments told us more about his own views than they did the Cambridge police he concocted a media event to caste the whole ordeal as a "Teachable Moment" in order to "spread the blame".

Teachers

There are many types of teachers:

1. Good: Straight, Smart and Fun, Not Hurting Students in Any Way, Helps Greatly!!!

2. Okay

3. Bad: Ones that treat you POORLY, ones that looks like crap, ones that stare at you and then look away, "pen--" heads, Ones that tell you to be quiet for no reason, Ones that put you somewhere else for no reason especially detentions, Ones that hate you for no good reason, Idiots that are very gay, racist, a-holes, not fun, very hard workers that get pisses, dictators, ones that want to shock you like a Goblin-Witch!!!

Students may have mostly bad teachers in their whole life, OTHERS THINK ABOUT TAKING OVER SCHOOL SO THEY WON'T DIE AND ESTABLISHING A RULE AGAINST BAD TEACHERS and I MEAN WHEN THEY GROW OLDER, others may not care, and others have the best teachers, and and others think ABOUT going Ninja-Style and Get Every TEACHER POSSIBLE that is bad, and others want to go to the best place in the world and have a very good time...
Did I mention that some teachers heads get wet from their head when they're very pissed and they have to clean off they're heads.

And some teachers can eat a whole horse, literally, and act like dictators. And some students might hunt them down like a Native American to a buffalo when they grow up!

teacake

The Teacake is a flat, roughly circular item with a diameter of about 15cm made out of bread, with a smooth brown upper surface and a somewhat lighter underside.

If the item contains currants then it is a Currant Teacake.

When sliced roughly in half and filled with chips then it becomes a Chip Buttie.


It doesn't have currents*!

Barman 1: Who's that cool motherfucker ?
Barman 2: Don't know, but last night he came in smoking a joint, asked me where the nearest brothel is, drank a whole bottle of whisky, did some coke off Mia's tits, fucked her, buggered her and left. I think he's an EFL teacher.
Barman 1: Shit, that's so cool. I wish I was him. Oh, look- he's just knocked out two of the bouncers with one punch.

Teacher

A state employee who, as such, doesn't know what real work is and complains about getting paid $40,000-$110,000 with a pension to work part time for 8 months of the year.
Teacher: Teachers don't get paid enough. We need more money or your kids will all end up garbage men

Tax payer: You get paid more than my wife and I combined to "grade papers" and drink coffee from 8 AM to 1:30 PM with a 2 hour lunch, last year they raised our property taxes to build an addition to the teacher's lounge, and every day my kids come home dumber
