Yeah, Mrs. Eller. 4th grade, 1 room school house, 6 grades.
She gets off the broom she rode to class. and thumps her desk with her gavel (Actually it's a ball bat),
CLASS WILL COME TO ORDER !
Any of you chewing gum, take it out of your mouth, wrap it in scrap paper and put it in your pocket ! SIG HEIL !
I see that all of you use these words incorrectly, 'There', 'Their', and 'They're' !
I will explain it one last time, and anyone getting it wrong after today, will be kept until the Bus has left, and you will have to walk the 10 miles home ! (Ball bat on desk again) !
"There" is a direction as in over there !
"Their" indicates possession, as in that is their ball !
"They're" indicates a contraction of 2 words an in "they are" going to miss the bus home. SIG HEIL !
^^^^ Grammar Nazi ^^^^
Then the little "brown noser", in the third grade,
told her That Kimchee was the one that greased her 'Broom Handle', thus causing her to fall off.
Chalk circle on the 'back board',"Keep your nose in THAT CIRCLE" !
Well being an ornery rat, I erased the circle with my nose, and sidled back and forth along the wall.

Shiite !
I slipped over the thin knife edge of reality, many years ago, and I can't tell normal from warped, much anymore.
No? Duh! LOL
WE probably studied it as much as you studied the American War of Yankee Aggression.
