I Regret

People often tell me there's no point dwelling on your regrets but tonight my brain has given up studying (Econ) and i'm starting to recollect situations that I have handled terribly. Anyone care enough to share?

Edit 1: This has become an econ discussion hhaha.

really did not like my econ teacher in high school. worst teacher i've ever had. he didn't teach, and when he did give us tests on random stuff from the book, he'd distract us during it by having the TV on or slapping random kids' desks with rulers justifying it by saying that the 'real world' had distractions.

i got away with not doing homework (i really didn't know anything/learned nothing in this class except how to BS). he pinned me as a 'good student,' so when he checked our homework, he looked at my mumbo jumbo #s on my paper for 2 seconds and be like 'looks good!' and they were all made up #s and words.

My high-school econ teacher gave us an assignment where we had to make a business plan. It was difficult, but then for the next two marking periods, he just played various episodes of Law and Order. I swear I am not kidding.

He basically knew that no one really cared about the class. It was senior year and econ was a none regents or AP course.

@WontPostMuch: blah blah blah. Well, the class definitely didn't teach me anything so that's still all I've got.

My financial statement analysis professor made me the leader of my group for our group project. And because of this, I was not able to cut this semester. Well played.

My economics teacher in high school always talked about Xbox, South Park, and how great Asian women are.

if its a story about econ, my econ teacher was alright. she would tell stories of how crap the economy was in the years that affected her. if its about regrets, i've stopped caring about most stuff.

[quote=fradddd]My economics teacher is some hippie who doesn't believe in grades. We got literally like 5 assignments the whole semester, the rest of the class is just BS about how much the U.S. should be shoveling money into other countries who are too stupid to help themselves.

What a sophisticated perspective from a deep thinker.

A project (which was suggesting a way to solve a problem that the UN CAN'T SOLVE THEMSELVES) was due like 3 weeks ago, me and partner kept telling him we'd turn it in but we never did. And because of his grading system we still have B's.
