Bribery is maybe more widespread than we’d like to think.

Am I wrong or those are 26 apples?

An apple will keep anyone away if you throw it hard enough.

The ‘mortar board’ kinda indicates the class is above the high school level, yet the math suggests a very low course level. Could be the old cliche about the Math Level 000 course for freshman scholarhip athletes.

At least, with the once-and-done system in place nowadays, schools only have to fake the classroom attendance record for a year. Used to be it lasted longer.

An apple a day keeps the “F” away.

They look more like tomatoes to me…but, that would make even less sense!

Where do primary school teachers in class wear mortarboards?

I don’t understand the mortarboard. That’s for graduation, not test results.

Hypothesis: Teacher confiscated all of those tomatoes before delivering the news of poor test results. Not especially funny, but there it is.

Must be a great teacher…..

F

An apple a day…breaks your dentures.

When every one of your characters looks like a run-down lowlife, it’s necessary to differentiate them. Thus the mortarboard.

But before I begin, let me start by stating that, unfortunately for many of you, I actually prefer pears.

Yeah! They’re cheaper by the bushel
