· Student: Did I see you during my driving lesson?
Mr. Scanlan: Yeah, I thought
I saw someone nearly crash!
· Can you have a relationship with a whole tribe? That’s, like, an orgy, isn’t it?
(Mr. Scanlan perplexed after
seeing some of Mr. Shea’s love-triangles)
· “…like saying ‘boo!’ to a goose!”
(apparently, a most popular
saying … apparently …)
· ‘Feck’ isn’t a swear-word, it doesn’t mean that. My mother says it all the
time. When she’s lost something, she’ll say ‘Where the feck has that thing gone?!”
(So long as you believe that,
Mr. S…)
- “You’ve got to be joking – you don’t think you’re gonna send something
as big as that, you silly fool!”
(What Mr. Scanlan’s computer
said to him)
- “Computers have a great way of making you feel stupid; ‘well done, you have now destroyed
everything!”
- “Oxymorons: awfully nice … like *insert student’s name* and funny…”
- “It was a complete … spherical-objects up!”
- “Have you seen Colin Farrell playing Alexander the Great? It’s like watching Dustin
the Turkey!”
- “If I read it like that all the way through, you’d all die!”
(Over-exaggeration? Never!)
· “If you’re planning on going into the teaching profession, you will have no life! Be
warned…”
· “Clearly, there’s a picture of Vivien’s ankle you’re not allowed
to see”
(Mr. Scanlan didn’t take
kindly to the Tennyson website he needed for his lesson being blocked)
· “They have tracking every 5mins in this school – oh, that’s the lunchtime bell,
let’s do some more tracking…”
· “Maud is a great vomit of a poem – he just
throws it up!”
· “I’ve got a whole load of bloody … sorry, excuse my language… *10 seconds later*
The silly buggers haven’t put the prices on!”
· “It starts off and then goes all weird … just like life, I suppose!”
· Look up this poem on the Internet and you’ll find about 30,000 different versions of it. There’s
one really pompous old git who reads it like Laurence Olivier…”
· “Go and kill Mr. Shea, and then…”
(Scanlan provides a new stance
on student homework…)
