Snipets

(The scene: Latin class and Ab is falling asleep because of late night/early morning essay writing.)

Hot Rod: (Teaching) Now can anyone think of a word in english that begins with fug? (Slience) Ab?
Ab: (Jerks out of latin-free reverie) Urmm... (awkward pause in which Ab racks brain). I'm sorry, all I can think of is fugly.
(Class laughs as does Hot Rod)
Ab: (Thinks) Damn shouldn't've watched Mean Girls yesterday.


(The scene: Chemistry class, and the new unit on organic chemistry is being introduced)

Teacher: ...In fact, this course didn't used to be called organic chemistry, it used to be called 'Rings and Chains'.
Ab: Huh, sounds like marriage.
(Pause)
(Class gets it and laughs)


(The scene: Still chemistry, the Teacher is explaining how knowledge about chemistry works)

Teacher: It'll come eventually, but it really needs to be solid first.
Ab: (Chokes on pen lid)

*For all those who do AS chemistry, in your text book there's actually a molecule called 'butanal'. Maybe not funny now, so save it until a soul-destroying lesson and it really will be.


(The scene: Philosophy class and they are discussing whether intent matters in suicide, i.e, do accidents count?)

Someone: So what's it called then if I accidentally chop my own arm off?
Ab: A whoopsie!
