At school, do/did you ever have any teachers that ever punish the whole class because of the misbehaviour of some students? When I went to school there were too many as*hole teachers who would keep the whole class in at lunch or whatever if some of the students misbehaved. And it sucks when I'm not one of them. I wonder how many of you ever have that problem?

Yes, I had them. One threatened to even give the whole class detention for the few who acted up.

Yes, terrifying, vetivert. It's difficult for me to imagine you as a teacher...

One of the teachers at the school I'm currently at threatened to fail her entire class, and they weren't doing anything wrong. She was yelling at them (in another language) and we could hear her all the way across the schoolyard when our English teacher was trying to explain Romeo and Juliet to the morons in my English class who don't understand the basic language that Shakespeare uses, much less the puns and random references.

My high school band teacher sometimes punished everybody (up to 150 students). He was very hot tempered.

Mostly they were morons because when the teacher was trying to explain it, they wouldn't stop talking and didn't pay attention. I don't really have a problem with kids who want to learn but don't understand it; it's the ones that distract the whole class by screwing around and then make the teacher repeat everything that was just said because they weren't paying attention.
