Hello people:

Today, I tasted some sweet revenge in an act of immature pleasure. One of my bad elementary students threw an eraser at me at high velocity, and I dawned on me why I should be at the receiving end of that kind of behavior. After all, you'd never see this kid chuck anything at one of the native Korean teachers...
This kid also has a history of losing his temper and picking up chairs and trying to "bulldoze" me with them, among using other objects of pain. I can give as well as get, but this time I realized that some of these kids have *zero* respect for us foreign teachers. So after he threw the eraser at me, I did my best Nolan Ryan and threw it back at him at high speed. It landed square in his crotch and it nearly dropped him on the spot. Laughing He managed to take a mini-fit afterwards, but I deflected the kitbags and things he threw at me with ease. He just sulked with his head down at his desk for the rest of the class.
Admit it, you've fantasized about revenge tactics like this with some of your baddies. Yes, it was totally unprofessional but it was also gratifying.

Know the feeling.

When I lose my patience with some of my high school boys and chew 'em out I don't care that they don't understand the specific words that I'm saying. In fact, I deliberately speed up so they can't understand and vent a little on 'em, like: "Yeah, and your mother sucks eggs and you'll still be an ugly loser tomorrow."

I like mouthing the "F" word.

"How many times do I have to tell you to be (farking) quiet?"

I threw a wadded up piece of paper at a student as a joke. He cried for twenty minutes. Lesson learned.
