These were the gifted students from the public education system...standards have been lowered....if it were the regular ed students - there would have been no more than one sentence...times have changed!
Kids in public ed study the Bible?
It is a sad commentary on our education system, for true!
O K
I would disagree. History for about seventy percent of the population is absolutely boring, and folks barely remember ten percent of what was said in class. I can remember a history teacher in the eighth grade...wasting six weeks over some US history episode, and eighty percent of the class getting a marginal or failing grade. He had to spend another day....summarizing everything on the test, then repeated the test again, and most everyone got marginal or passing.
Same way in science, math, and literature. I think now...folks turning thirty and forty are dawn to the history channel....with things laid out in graphic terms and more of a detailed understanding...help to influence their memory and perception of history.
I’m waiting one day for the ‘Economy Channel’ to appear and start teaching people business and practical lessons over economics. Maybe then...we’d all be smart enough to handle our own money.
Gee...I thought it was Clinton who signed the Emasculation Proclamation .....learn something new. /s
Those were probably college...I took a religion course while at U of L...and yes we studied the Bible and others...but it was a public university...
No, Clinton signed the Ejaculation Proclamation, on blue fabric.
“No, Clinton signed the Ejaculation Proclamation, on blue fabric.”
When will the media report that this is and was his “legacy”. It hangs in infamy in a closet somewhere.
They’re still trying to figure out which end of the Macanudo to light...
“That’s real retarded, sir.” Funny though.
And there you have it directly from the products of the U.S. school system

There was a book in the late 30s titled Bloopers, with illustrations by Dr. Suess. Many of the bloopers in the original article come from that book. A few come from the Wilson Quarterly article from 1983.
Great read, thanks for sharing!
Not written by students, I guarantee. The “mistakes” are too clever by half.
I must have been sick on the day these facts were taught in my classes...
It reads like one person wrote all of it.
These have been circulating for many years. They are definitely funny. Some sound legit and others are too clever.
