My Unique Sense of Humor
My students quickly learn not to expect a straight answer to any question they might ask:
Student:
Can you help me?
Mr. E:
I'm not a psychiatrist, but I'll do my best!
Student:
Can I go to the bathroom?
Mr. E:
I don't know ... can you?
Student:
May I go to the bathroom?
Mr. E:
Not in here!!
Mr. E:
Be patient!
Student:
I have no patience!
Mr. E:
Without patients you'll never be a doctor!
Student:
I was just kidding!
Mr. E:
Keep on kidding and you'll have a whole family of small goats!
Student:
You're getting on my nerves!
Mr. E:
Well don't leave them laying around!
Mr. E:
Don't annoy him! He's annoying enough!
By the end of the school year, they even use these lines on me!!
