Professors Are Sharing Funny "Rate My Professors" Reviews They Read About Themselves

    "It was one day!"

    If you've taken a college class, you've probably used Rate My Professors. It's essentially a website that reviews professors so other college students know what they're in for when they take their class.

    Well, last week, Reddit user @njck-njck asked professors to share funny/bizarre reviews they've read about themselves.

    Here's what they said:

    This dining hall review:

    "My dad was a professor, retired a few years ago. He only ever had one bad review, and he thought it was hilarious: 'Son of a bitch ate the last chicken nugget in the dining hall. Great professor, but the theft of nuggets is a sin I cannot forgive.'" —thatyellowishthing

    This witchy review:

    "My very first comment was, in all caps, 'Don't take her! All she ever does is talk about witches and fairy tales and then throws the assignment at you expecting you to know everything.' For starters, it was one day." —homeawayfromhogwarts

    This dark review:

    "There have been some fun ones, but this one from back in the early 2000s always stuck out to me: 'I hope you get the bird flu and die. However, before you die, you understand that you gave it to your wife and family and they all die. And then you die with the knowledge that you killed them.'" —profzoff

    And this glowing review:

    "The funniest review was from an organ performance major. He said that I was 'the only instructor who could effectively teach organ technique and the performance of literature in the studio while simultaneously correcting a wrong note he heard coming from a piano major across the hall in a practice room!'" —Back2Bach

    This backhanded review:

    "This teacher is so cool — I can't believe she is as old as she is." —Araucaria2024

    This demonic review:

    "It’s two words long: 'The devil.' I got that twice." —helicopterpurple

    This not-so-festive review:

    "The review said, 'He might look like Santa, but he sure ain’t jolly!'" —inthelibraryathome

    This astronomically rude review:

    "I teach an astronomy summer class to undergrads. Only review I got said that I was a 'dried-up old dick-licker.'" —bravehamster

    This awkward review:

    "Something to the effect of 'She's so awkward — I would leave 30 minutes into each class.' It was one negative review out of tons of positives, so it stood out for a while, which I found hilarious." —announcerkitty

    This kinda sad review:

    "Apparently, one of my student thinks I am no fun :(. They said, 'Does Einstein's theory of relativity explain why time flies when you are having fun but when you are listening to Dr. Mandhana, it falls out of the sky dead?'" —Rmandhana1998

    This baseless review:

    "I got 'You were great, but your height was distracting.' I’m average height..." —Cucumberappleblizz

    This hardly true review:

    "For some reason, a few students came up with some inside joke that my dad (a sculpture professor) is obsessed with eating hard-boiled eggs during class. They all gave him 5-star reviews, but wrote about his ‘weird obsession.' He thinks it’s hilarious and he says that new students still ask about it every year at the beginning of class." —NineTeenAnd53

    And this review that left the professor unbothered:

    "I like reading random ones because it really paints a picture about the person who wrote it. 'Worst professor ever! We had homework every week!' and 'Don't take her classes! She makes you read the book to understand the material!' Like, they got all the way to college and then were surprised that it takes work to pass your classes." —Angry_cat_in_a_bag
