One Big Happy by Rick Detorie for September 02, 2009

Oh that’s as bad as “How do you spell attic?” You’re supposed to look inside your blouse as you spell it.

At my school, they asked me “What are you eating under there?” I was supposed to say “Eating under where?” but I didn’t get what they were asking. It was like I was playing dumb, but I wasn’t playing.

I didn’t understand at first until that click came. Oh, Buggy. That little rascal.

I don’t wanna know what’s so funny about yours, Macushlalondra.

ArthurAllen, that joke you mentioned is old school.

This conversation of bad jokes is making me think of Calvin and Susie about to do a nutrition-themed school play. Calvin, who’s being an onion, asks Susie what her part is. “I’m ‘fat’,” she responds. Then Calvin jokingly says, “No, I mean in the play.” Then Susie yells, “ANYONE ELSE WANT TO SAY IT?!?” while Calvin is on his back asking for an understudy.

At our grammar school, it was “say lettuce and spell cup”. Pretty racy for 6 or 7 year olds.

Quite true, Ushindi. “Let us see you pee.” ^__^ lol

Sorry, couldn’t hold in the laughter.

For us it was: Are you smart? (Yes) Spell, it. (S-M-A-R-T) Wrong. I-T. It.

And calculator fun was 55378008 (look at it upside down). For some strange reason, that was used rather than the more obvious 58008.
