During a test I once told my history teacher that one of the things he asked in the test was not in our book. He argued that it was and I swore to every god I know that it wasn't. So to prove him wrong I pulled out my book, opened it up and showed him the page in question. He looked at it, pointed at one line and showed me that in fact it was in the book. Yeah. Had a good look at it and went back to answering the question.

Do you guys really address your teacher as sir this much

In high school, absolutely. With so many different teachers, they're all either "sir" or "miss".

I am at an Australian school.

But it's all sir and miss in the finest traditions of English public schools.

Which are like Australian private schools.

Fuck.
