And Now For Something Completely Different
(The school year has just started, and we’re in biology. We’re working out lab partners.)
Student #1: “Sorry, I can’t be in the two o’clock lab; I have Spanish then.”
Teacher: “Spanish? Is [Spanish Teacher] teaching you?”
Student #1: “Yeah, why?”
Teacher: “Listen to me carefully: Do. Not. Upset. That. Man.”
Student #2: “Is he that mean?”
Teacher: “No, I just don’t want him disrupting class with Monty Python nonsense.”
(He refuses to explain further. Midterms come and go, and we’re having a nature walk to look at leaves for biology.)
Student #1: “…and I don’t think I did well on the Spanish midterm.”
Student #2: “Don’t tell [Biology teacher]; remember how he kept going on about ‘do not upset that man?'”
Student #1: “Yeah… nothing bad happened, though.”
(A few minutes pass, and then we hear something crashing through the woods. It is the Spanish teacher.)
Spanish Teacher: “HEAR YE, HEAR YE, [STUDENT #1] DID EXCEPTIONALLY POOR ON HIS MIDTERM, AND DESERVES SHAAAAAME!”
Student #1: “What the…”
Biology Teacher: “God d*** it [Spanish Teacher]! I am trying to teach!”
Spanish Teacher: *appearing from behind a tree* “Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!”
(He runs off, laughing loudly to himself. The biology teacher tells us this happens at least once every three or four years.)
