(We are “being taught” about different types of animals.)
Teacher: “Carnivores eat meat.”
(The class all nod their heads.)
Teacher: “Herbivores eat plants.”
(The class all nod their heads.)
Teacher: “Omnivores eat everything: metal, plastic, paper…”
(The class pauses in confusion.)
Teacher: “The only omnivore is a goat.”
Student #1: “What are we then? We eat plants and meat; doesn’t that make us omnivores?”
Teacher: “No! We’re carnivores. The only omnivore is a goat.”
Student #1: “But—”
Teacher: “NO! THE ONLY OMNIVORE IS A GOAT!”
