Failing Organic Chemistry

I have this habit of writing stupid things in the middle of homework assignments and tests. Usually, I'll write a little note to the teacher or put a useless piece of trivia, since I figure that it breaks the monotony of having to grade everything over and over again.

On my last OChem test, I wrote this:

Harmless enough, no? Anyone who knows me should be aware of how entertained I am by this fact.

And then today, while waiting for class to begin, some kids were talking about our OChem professor. A student mentioned that he was rather surprised to learn that Dr. Dintzner is, in fact, gay.

Oh shit.

Dr. D is aware of me being an obnoxious idiot, but I get the feeling that this crossed the line. I didn't mean any harm, but I seem to have been causing a lot of unintentional damage lately.

If I fail this quarter, at least I'll know why.

You are an idiot. I think I already told you that when you said you wrote this on a test. You need to think before you write :P He can't/wouldn't (I say wouldn't because if he's gay, he's probably liberal, and liberals tend to be just and awesome) fail you for offending him, but he can send you to a counselor or something.
You have plenty non-offensive useless facts in your artillery.
This word verification was 'gasesse', which I think should be added to the english language. As in "What's that smell?" "Oh, it's Adil, he is SO gasesse."

That is quite possibly the most unfortunate accident regarding awkwardness that I have ever read.
