I have had the great pleasure of hearing epic nuggets of comedy gold at work and at home. I want share a few of them here before we delve into the inner meanings of spin the bottle as I promised in my last post.
So here goes…
Teaching is a great joy - but it is also exhausting and frustrating. It is important to be able to laugh sometimes.
One must run a tight ship…..
But with the right balance you will get a classroom full of future stand up comedians that all have a little swagger of their own.
From what I have witnessed in my time educating is the future is looking bright for careers in comedy.
Here are a few gems from years of teaching the 5 and under crowd:
"What does science look like?" - I had no answer. College educated woman could not answer this.
"What does the number 4 sound like?" - Um….like 4? Now who sounds silly?
"When will tomorrow be today!" - Did your parents let you watch Spaceballs?
"When I grow up, I want to be a mommy and a giraffe!" - Yes, you do that! I would like to see that.
"Miss Molly, you look like a rockstar today, are you Ke$ha?" - No. (thinking to self - Jesus! either I am the most badass teacher here or I look like I haven't showered for weeks - either way, not good.)
"One day I will be an astronaut scientist and a football player. " My own child said this - and yes, yes he will be.
"How do you spell A?" - HEAD SLAP!
Drum roll…..last one of the day…….
"I love how making math sounds!" - um…well, yes, I think, ok….great! MATH RULES!
See, the world will not be lacking in comedy writers in the future. These lines just fall out of their mouths like half eaten graham crackers in the lunchroom.
The children are our future. My work here is done! Long live comedy!
Its only Tuesday folks! I'll be here all week! Tip your waitresses!
See you soon!
