Suddenly Got Wood
(My woodshop teacher tells us this story, and it is one of his more memorable ones. A couple years ago there was a girl in his class who was known to wear less-than-appropriate clothing, and on this day she was wearing a crop top showing her belly button. This is important to note, as well as the fact that she has no martial arts or sports training. Also, this teacher is known for throwing items.)
Girl: “Hey, Mr. [Teacher], can you please cut me this piece of wood?”
Teacher: “Of course, one sec.”
(He then throws the piece of wood which he is currently working on towards the wood recycling. He accidentally lets go early, causing the jagged piece of wood with splinters EVERYWHERE to fly towards the girl’s belly button.)
Girl: “Oh, yeah, Mr. [Teacher]? Can you check my worksheet after this? I had some questions.”
(She then proceeds to catch the piece of wood between two fingers, right as it is about to hit her, and continues to speak. She twirls it around as everyone stares at her in awe, and she looks down to realize she is holding a piece of wood.)
Girl: “Where did this come from?”
