Frazz by Jef Mallett for September 21, 2015

Traumatizing your teacher is, I suppose, a lot like cuing her up and poking her into the side pocket. If a strategy works, it’s a pool cue stick in your quiver.

But I bet she gave Caulfield a grade…..She who laughs last, laughs best.

lol

what are we going to do when Caulfield triggers an heart attack in his teacher??

I see now.

Did you know she dated Geronimo?

comicsssfanSometimes those easy pop quizes aren’t so much to see how the student is doing, but to encourage keeping up with reading assignments. I remember a seminary class on ministry to youth with two books, one on sex education, the other on theology. A question on the pop was “What is the ‘great American fairy tale’?” [That there is only one perfect mate out there to find, from the former] One who hadn’t kept up guessed the latter – “That America is a Christian nation.” All agreed that though wrong, it was a better answer.

Night-Gaunt49Not quite. It was wrong in the book larnin’ sense, but more right as a description of reality.

Especially since the answer would have to be at least somewhat subjective.
