Measuring Up...
As a teacher, I have had some funny moments in my classroom. From kids spelling corner curner to being called Kim Possible’s Naked Mole rat, on some days, the laughs just keep coming. But today simply took the cake. A student was in my class playing with a ruler while I was presenting a lecture on speech analysis. I walked over to the student, grabbed the ruler, and got the shock of my life. This was no regular ruler. This was a “Peter Meter.” With tape on the front, the ruler had drawn on dicks at several inches starting at five, which equaled lame on the “Peter Meter” and ended at 10, which equaled wow on the “Peter Meter.” Poor boy, I thought to myself. 12’s really do exist.

O-M-G! Hilarious — I can imagine it taking your breath away! My boyfriend is a teacher, and I'm somewhat jealous of the crazy moments you all get to witness, even though teaching isn't all fun and games. Keep up the great work.
Ummmm, I'm here to tell him that 12 exist as well. I have the war scars to prove it...lol
i am afraid to ask what grade you teach?
omg...what are our kids being exposed to? You teach elementary, right?
An interesting find...
OMG Q @ I have the war scars to prove it... Oh my! LoL.
Hilarious Corey! HI-LAR-IOUS!!!
~Damnit!
LMAO!!!! this was too funny!
Crazy.. it was hilarious...
Q, you better show them war wounds.. no really... can I see them?
c. I teach 11th grade!
Guys, I swear these kids are a mess...
Yup - 12's do exist. I've seen a 13...I touched it. I advised that it be put in a museum on display.
they do exist indeed...
I was gonna ask what grade too...but at 11th grade...hmmmm..no wonder u said poor boy.
That does not surprise me that one or more of your students would have such an item and actually know what it means, kids today have far more knowledge than children of yesteryear.
I am certain that you teach on the Elem level and not Secondary level. Keep your composture and speak with the students in reference to this and that might even require a parental permission slip.
that's hilarious!
