        Obnoxious episode I have ever seen

        Drake has a horrible English teacher who is a nasty and obnoxious jerk and she also hates him. Every time when Mrs. Hayfer asks him something and Drake gets the correct answer, she never accepts the correct answer from Drake. Drake was dating a girl named Kelly Hayfer but she laughs too much and it gets really annoying to Drake. When Drake went to Kelly's house, he found out that Mrs. Hayfer was Kelly's mom! If he breaks up with Kelly, Mrs. Hayfer is sending him to summer school! Personally, that teacher, Mrs. Hayfer is a nasty, obnoxious, hideous and ugly jerk and always hates Drake and always threatens to do bad things to him. Mrs. Hayfer is just like Miss Agatha Trunchbull from Matilda and if they were friends, it would make sense, but cute person and ugly person don't make sense and go together. That means cute person and ugly person cant be friends and get along. That episode is restricted for teachers or aides because that sets a bad example for teachers and aides to threaten or do bad things to students. I had a nasty teacher and a nasty aide that I really hate during the 2005-06 school year who was also like Mrs. Hayfer. I wouldn't want to have a teacher or an aide like that again. In order to avoid summer school, Drake tried to make Kelly break up with him by being disgusting and sick. He tried everything until Kelly broke up with him. There was a hot, sexy girl that Kelly is friends with is Allison, who is a teen model when Drake and Josh went to the Premiere to get together with Kelly and Allison. Allison is much attractive and better than Mrs. Hayfer. Thats what I like about this episode. After Kelly broke up with him, he is free of summer school.

        How to handle a mean teacher.

        I've had a teacher before that taught English class and she wasn't that bad at all. If I had a English teacher that had a daughter with a uncontrollable laughter problem, I probably find a way of calling off the relationship by not hurting her feelings and not getting in trouble with the teacher.

        This show doesn't take place in reality, because if it did, it be a lot darker

        You know I would love to know more about how the minds of the creators of this show worked. Just from their writing, I bet they act like giggling nutcases who probably think a safe falling on a little girl is comedy gold, (if was a cartoon).

        I can't stand shows that don't have a shred of irony and instead just care to have the situation be as cartoony and as over the top, like it's some how on the same level as you. So they create really jerky, stick in the mud antagonists who couldn't possibly be real with out consequences befalling their actions.

        While I certainly am not going to get into a rant about how bad off public schools are across country. I will of course talk about teachers who say things like "I hate you drake", don't have a job for very long and probably shouldn't be teaching. Or you have slackers like Drake who clearly isn't being engaged enough or stimulated enough, because as mentioned before he's being held back and ruined by a teacher who is clearly out to get him, and is a total vindictive person.

        I have had a lot of bad teachers in my life, but I've had just as much good teachers to say, "A bad teacher is someone who either hates themselves, their profession, and takes it out on the children their suppose to be helping".

        All in all I hated this one.

        But I have to admit. There are times when I do think wizards and magicians exist in this world and they leave behind magic items like a lucky shirt.
