Schooling, In The Stroke Of A Pen

Our stationery store is doing a back-to-school sale during the summer. A mother comes in with her young son.

Mother: “Let’s get you some nice pens and pencils for when you go back to school.”

Son: *Eyes wide* “Go… back?”

Mother: “Yes! For when you go back for Year Two.”

Son: “I just did a whole year! I thought that was it?!”

Mother: *Laughs* “No, dear, you need to go to school for a few years.”

Son: “How many?”

Mother: “Eleven.”

The little fellow contemplates this news for a moment before looking around the store.

Son: “I don’t think this place has enough pens.”
