Re: Hate Thread
I hate the fact that my physics-teacher is to a large degree incopetent in the field of physics, and is absolutely incompetent in teaching anything to anyone. I learned not too long ago, that I'm getting him in physics next year as well, which will probably be hell because he usually does exponentially more mistakes as the level of the physics increases. For anyone doubting his incompetence: He has on severel occations stressed the fact that "Black holes are only a theory, we don't know if they exist, and we have yet to discover compelling proof that they do." And during a session in which he was talking about the twin paradox: "When the spaceship with the second twin enters the Earth's frame of reference, he will instantly adapt the age of the twin that's been on earth all along."
When corrected in these matters, no matter how reliable the source, he simply disregards anything presented to him. For example the twin paradox, where I pointed out several fundamental laws of physics that would be broken by this, as well as showing him written reports on what is thought will happen from several renowed scientists and wikipedia.

I also hate having to teach myself everything I want to know about physics from my physics-book. Simply because my teacher is incapable of teaching us anything.
I will most likely make a rant about the book in the not so distant future...
