RAWR!

"Mr., do I have T-Rex arms?"

Soundtrack for the Day

Our school always plays music in the main hallway in front of our office.  This means someone made a conscious decision to play a Kenny G covers Celine Dion CD.  I'm not sure what this implies, but I can't agree with it.

Words

Student 1: "Mr., would you tell him to stop cussing at me?"

Student 2: "I didn't say shit to him."

Stone Age Games

Me: "Could one of you guys put the calculator away?"

*students grumble about who is going to put it away*

Me: "Rock, Paper, Scissors for it."

Student: "Man, I haven't played that game in a day.  Last time I played that game I was riding a dinosaur."

Better Than Axe

*Student 1 is eating an orange*

Student 2: "Man, you reek of oranges.  You ain't comin' over to my house tomorrow smelling all fruity."

Take the Lead

Student: "You can't have girls lead in dancing."

Me: "Why not?"

Student: "Because you would fall down if a girl was leading."

Me: "If you fall down then just get back up and keep dancing."

Student: "No way, if I fall down I just lay there.  Texting people."

Accents

I have one student who thinks that it is really cool to talk in an Australian accent.  He is pretty much alone in that belief, but no one has the heart to tell him.
