Mr. Wizard is a Dick of a Scientist

posted July 17, 2012 by

Out of all the supercuts floating around the cyberspace universe, this has to be one of my all-time favorites. Like a lot of people my age, I grew up watching Nickelodeon's Mr. Wizard's World at the ass-crack of dawn before school. But even if you didn't watch the show, I think just about everyone has known that one adult in their life who could come off sort of dick-ish when teaching you something. It's just their nature.

Watching this video edit, I just kept waiting for Mr. Wizard to flat out call one of the kids a dumbass. It's almost as if That '70s Show's Red Forman was embodied in a junior high science teacher - only with few threats of an ass kicking. The world needs more teachers like Mr. Wizard who aren't afraid to call kids out on their lack of scientific knowledge, instead of stroking their ever precious egos. "That's wrong... dummy."
